Enhancing fuel burning efficiency by regulate spark plug voltage supply [PDF]
Nowadays, fuel consumption, fuel efficiency and fuel economy is number one priority for people. The need to reduce fuel consumption is because oil reserves are running low and the cost of gasoline will only increase day by day.

Investigation of cylinder deactivation and variable valve actuation on gasoline engine performance [PDF]
Increasingly stringent regulations on gasoline engine fuel consumption and exhaust emissions require additional technology integration such as Cylinder Deactivation (CDA) and Variable valve actuation (VVA) to improve part load engine efficiency.

This study developed a two‐step laser‐based process for sustainable surface treatment of Ti–6Al–4 V components, combining laser polishing and direct laser interference patterning with ns and ps pulses. Key findings include significant roughness reduction, hierarchical patterning with ps pulses, and improved homogeneity. A cost function is developed for

Heat treatment parameters critically affect the wear resistance of powder bed fusion–laser beam (PBF‐LB)‐produced Ti–6Al–2Sn–4Zr–6Mo alloy. This study found that optimizing annealing temperature allows to obtain a tailored microstructure, which enhances the dry‐sliding behavior by forming a stable and functional mechanically mixed layer (MML), ensuring

Transport energy consumption in mountainous roads. A comparative case study for internal combustion engines and electric vehicles in Andorra [PDF]
This paper analyses transport energy consumption of conventional and electric vehicles in mountainous roads. A standard round trip in Andorra has been modelled in order to characterise vehicle dynamics in hilly regions.

It is demonstrated that laser‐induced graphene (LIG) can be encapsulated while preserving its electrical conductivity and enhancing its mechanical properties. Unlike previous encapsulation attempts, the optimal conditions described here result in sheet resistance of ≈2 Ω sq−1, resistance increase of only 5% upon encapsulation, and vastly improved ...

Engine performance of a single cylinder direct injection diesel engine fuelled with blends of Jatropha Curcas oil and stardard diesel fuel [PDF]
Blends of Jatropha Curcas oil and standard diesel fuel were evaluated (without pre-heating). The engine tests for the blends were performed in a Petter single cylinder direct injection diesel engine under steady state conditions at high loads.
