The transverse use of GM's LS small-block engine in the W-bodies was a major addition for 2005. The GM W Platform was phased out with the production of the new long-wheelbase Epsilon II platform . The last car produced on the W platform was the ninth generation of the Chevrolet Impala , which was replaced by the Epsilon-based tenth-generation ...
Honeywell was also able to hire a number of HYSYS developers, ultimately mobilizing these resources to produce UniSim. [11] The divestment agreement specified that Aspentech would retain rights to market and develop most Hyprotech products (including HYSYS) royalty-free. [12] As of 2024, AspenTech continues to produce HYSYS. [13]
The General Motors Automatic Safety Transmission (AST) was a semi-automatic transmission released in 1937. The first mass-produced fully-automatic transmission developed for passenger automobile use was the GM Hydra-Matic introduced in the autumn of 1939 as a (very likely subsidized) $57 option for the 1940 Oldsmobile.

A magnetorheological damper or magnetorheological shock absorber is a damper filled with magnetorheological fluid, which is controlled by a magnetic field, usually using an electromagnet. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] This allows the damping characteristics of the shock absorber to be continuously controlled by varying the power of the electromagnet.
The tuned mass damper was introduced as part of the suspension system by Renault on its 2005 F1 car (the Renault R25), at the 2005 Brazilian Grand Prix.The system reportedly reduced lap times by 0.3 seconds: a phenomenal gain for a relatively simple device. [1]
On the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Frida relaunch in the U.S., CEO Chelsea Hirschhorn looks back at the "blind naivete" that let her believe the snotsucker could go mainstream.
Simplified diagram of linear dashpot. A dashpot, also known as a damper [citation needed], is a mechanical device that resists motion via viscous friction. [1] The resulting force is proportional to the velocity, but acts in the opposite direction, [2] slowing the motion and absorbing energy.
Shock absorbers are an important part of car suspension designed to increase comfort, stability and overall safety. The shock absorber, produced with precision and engineering skills, has many important features. The most common type is a hydraulic shock absorber, which usually includes a piston, a cylinder, and an oil-filled chamber.
