Abstract | The aerodynamic efficiency of trucks is very low because of their non-streamlined box shape, leaving little room for improvement in terms of aerodynamic efficiency. Hence, other means of improving the aerodynamic efficiency of trucks are needed, and one practical yet relatively simple method to reduce aerodynamic drag is deploying drag reduction |
