How hard could it to be to build a two-stroke internal combustion engine (ICE) from scratch? This is a challenge that [Camden Bowen] gladly set for himself, while foregoing such obvious wastes of time ...
Name a type of terrain, and someone, somewhere, will figure out a way to race on it. From wood-track ovals and countryside rallies to the pure chaos of the Gumball 3000, humans love to pit themselves ...
The two-stroke engine is mostly a piece of history today, but there was a time when some of the coolest developments in engine technology were two-cycle engines. Here’s how two-stroke technology rose ...
We've seen many engine configurations come and go, with some being more noteworthy than others and some being just outrageous. Honda attempted to modify the shapes of the pistons used in its engine, ...
The engine is possibly the greatest invention in the history of mankind. Generally speaking, engines are machines that convert one form of energy into mechanical energy and have revolutionized all ...
The Detroit Diesel Corporation originally launched in 1938 as a division of General Motors, and its main purpose was to build a two-stroke engine that would combine power and versatility in a small ...
I love weird engines—give me a rotary, a turbine, or, hell, even a flat-eight and I’ll be happy. That’s why I was so excited when I heard that INNengine of Granada, Spain had produced a opposed-piston ...
If you’re shopping for a new fishing boat or an outboard motor to power it, one of the decisions you’ll have to make is between a 2 stroke vs 4 stroke engine. Unless you’re going electric, this choice ...
Intake, compression, power, then exhaust. Every 4-stroke engine ever made – about 80% of all engines currently in existence – function on this principle – even rotary engines. But now, Porsche has ...
Traditional Two-Stroke Engine Issues A traditional two-stroke engine has the piston pushing down after firing, moving past an exhaust port and allowing the exhaust gases to leave the chamber.
Unless you're really into dirt bikes, you probably haven't touched a two-stroke engine in decades — if you ever have. These mechanically simple motors combine the four strokes we all know and love ...
The first platform using DBSCAN-based point reconstruction to capture authentic handwriting and replay it as smooth, color-coded animated video. Handwriting is procedural — it’s not just what you ...
