Over time, in this column, we have touched upon several aspects of not only how to achieve higher levels of volumetric efficiency (as it relates to torque) but the importance of this feature in a ...

In the middle of the muscle-car horsepower wars, the 1970 Buick GS Stage 1 quietly rewrote the rulebook by proving that raw ...

In a recent article, I wrote about step-motor system performance emphasizing key concepts that all engineers need to understand about this widely-used electro-magnetic-mechanical digital actuator. As ...

Without getting into a long-winded dissertation about torque, we're going to suggest that you dig through your old copies of HOT ROD Magazine and familiarize yourself with the relationship between ...

Where the 4.0-liter made peak power at 8300 rpm, the 3.0-liter makes peak power at 5500 rpm. Although the new twin-turbo six-cylinder doesn't have the stratospheric revs as the previous V-8, it makes ...

What a difference a little extra engine torque makes. I recently had the privilege of being one of the first drivers outside of test fleets to put a new fuel economy and performance concept from Volvo ...

As the cost of electricity goes up, energy efficiency becomes more and more relevant as a design parameter. This is even the case in motion/position control applications, where servomotors are widely ...

You almost certainly know the horsepower rating or displacement of your boat’s engine. But some marine-engine manufacturers have begun marketing torque over horsepower. In a break from standard ...
