The slip angles of the front and rear tires dictate whether or not the car is understeering or oversteering and they also influence lateral grip as slip angle is related to the coefficient of friction of the tire.

"Audi's Clever Twin-Turbo Trick - Sequential Exhaust Valves Intake valves dipped in gold While it sounds cool those are actually exhaust valves and. theyre just highlighted in yellow. But you might notice something strange: only the yellow valves open up to release the exhaust gases - a clever strategy Audi has implemented for their twin-turbo V8 engine. You see at low RPM theres not enough exhaust gasses to keep both turbos at full tilt so only one exhaust valve opens and all of this exhaust routes through a single turbo. However as the engine RPM rises one turbo is simply not enough. A pin"

"What Killed The Rotary Engine What killed the rotary engine Wankel engines have struggled to compete with piston cylinder engines despite their many benefits and overall simplicity. Rotary engines have a long growing combustion chamber as the rotor spins making complete combustion difficult - not great for fuel economy. Theyre also difficult to seal and since you have multiple chambers at different stages of combustion proper seals between chambers is critical. To help promote a good seal oil is sprayed directly into the combustion chamber. All of this results in an inefficient engine with"

"Why The Inline-6 Cylinder Is The Perfect Engine The inline-six cylinder is the perfect engine - why Well when it comes to creating a balanced smooth running engine four things are critically important. First you need to balance out the the motion of the pistons moving up and down called primary forces. Second you need to balance out the uneven acceleration these pistons experience called secondary forces. And third and fourth you need to balance out any rocking motions created by these primary and secondary forces respectively. The inline-six cylinder balances out all of these perfectly"

"This Brilliant Differential Helps You Drift (Torque Splitter) Can a clever rear differential can make an AWD vehicle drift. Yep - its called a torque splitter and if you peel back the metal housing you can see how it works. An input shaft delivers torque to both the left and right axles however each axle has a clutch pack to fully connect or fully disconnect (both the left and right wheels) from the engines torque. To do this an actuator rotates a worm gear which compresses or opens up that specific axles clutch pack. Each clutch pack is independently controlled allowing for any torque split"

A body on frame vehicle has a frame which the vehicle stresses pass through and the body of the car rests on top of this. Unibodies are more rigid due to the forces spreading over the entire vehicle and because of this can also use less material and are lighter. This means better fuel economy handling acceleration and deceleration. Body on frame vehicles allow for better NVH as the body can be isolated"

"Mazda's Holy Grail of Combustion Engines - SkyActiv-X Has Mazda created the holy grail of combustion engines Typical gas engines use a spark plug to ignite an air fuel mixture. A more efficient and more powerful method would be to ignite this air fuel mixture completely all at once using compression similar to a diesel engine. The idea is called HCCI or homogenous charge compression ignition. Mazda developed a very similar technology called SPCCI or spark controlled compression ignition. This technology works with very lean air fuel ratios meaning lots of air but not much fuel. As the piston"

"Volkswagen Created A Unique Engine - The Budack Cycle Volkswagen created what theyre calling the Budack cycle with a unique twist on the typical four-stroke engine (intake compression power exhaust). During the intake stroke the intake valves close early so the piston keeps moving down but no additional air is coming in. This reduces the effective compression ratio because theres less air and fuel to squeeze down. During the power stroke the engine essentially has a longer distance for the piston to move down. That is to say the expansion ratio is greater than the compression ratio thus"

"Water Methanol Injection - More Boost How water methanol injection works. Water methanol injection is used typically on high powered vehicles to assist with reducing the likelihood of knock and thus allowing for higher compression ratios more timing advance and higher boost. Typically mixes are 50/50 with both water and methanol playing important but different roles to help aid in producing more power. Ultimately the power comes from tuning as running water/meth essentially raises the octane level of the fuel used. There are production cars which have used this in the past. Related Videos:"

"VTEC vs Valvetronic - Honda vs BMW VTEC vs Valvetronic. Honda versus BMW. Who makes a technology that makes for a better engine Both technologies are used to alter how much the intake valve opens thus how much air an engine gets and thus how much power it makes. Hondas system VTEC acts like a simple switch. At low RPM the intake operates on a cam lobe with less lift and duration which tends to be efficient. At high RPM a pin locks the rocker arms together forcing the intake valves to operate on a higher lift cam lobe - boom VTEC kicks in yo BMWs system actually eliminates the need for a"
