Heavy-Duty Vehicle Platoon Formation for Fuel Efficiency
IEEE transactions on intelligent transportation systems (Print), 2016Heavy-duty vehicles driving close behind each other, also known as platooning, experience a reduced aerodynamic drag, which reduces the overall fuel consumption up to 20% for the trailing vehicle.

Ammonia as efficient fuel for SOFC
Journal of Power Sources, 2009Abstract Ammonia is a possible candidate as the fuel for SOFCs. In this work, the influence on the performance of a tubular SOFC running on ammonia is studied. Analysis of open circuit voltages (OCVs) on the cell indicated the oxidation of ammonia within a SOFC is a two-stage process: decomposition of the inlet ammonia into nitrogen and hydrogen ...

The Impact of Fuel Price on Airline Fuel Efficiency and Operations [PDF]
2013 Aviation Technology, Integration, and Operations Conference, 2013 Jet fuel prices have increased significantly during the past decade, resulting in fuel cost becoming airlines’ primary operating cost. Given the relevance of the air transport system for the economy, it is important that industry and policy makers are informed of past changes and likely future impacts driven by increased fuel prices.
