combination must respect both the weight and intended use of the vehicle and its expected loads. A low rolling resistance is desirable, obtained usually by choosing...

One of the first Porsches was an Electric Vehicle (EV) built sometime in 1889. Despite the vehicle's performance of 21 mph and a 49 mile range the EV did...

provide 13.8 MJ of available energy. Compressed gas is a low density energy storage method. It is often used in space vehicles for tasks like cold gas thrusters...

hybrid electric vehicle include very low emission when compared to a standard gasoline powered vehicle. Further, hybrid electric vehicles usually have higher...

fossil fuels to renewable energies in the transportation sector. In recent years, there has been a surge in electric vehicle development from major manufacturers...

while other vehicles such as the Volkswagen Rabbit may use a single thickness of low cost aluminum plate. For other more typical vehicles a more complex...

Electric vehicles are a type of automobile transport where power is generated by electric motors using energy stored in rechargeable batteries. The distinction...

and recovery and reuse of vehicle parts. But ultimately chemical rocket designs are limited by orbit velocity and fuel energy, which are fixed values....

aims it at a target vehicle. The particles are either absorbed or reflected to generate thrust directly, or their kinetic energy is used as a power source...

Electric vehicles are divided into AC electric vehicles and DC electric vehicles. Generally, an electric vehicle uses a battery as an energy source and...

electric car that has a rechargeable battery installed in the vehicle such that the vehicle can be recharged from an external source of electricity and...

still powered by liquid fuel, with all of the energy provided by the ICE, the hybrid function of these vehicles means that the electric motor, the electric...
