KAIST develops active aerodynamics technology for EVs to improve braking and cornering

Researchers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have developed active aerodynamics technology that adjusts airflow around a vehicle in real time to improve performance and safety for high-performance electric vehicles. KAIST said the team built a multi active aerodynamics system integrating several front and rear devices, backed by Hyundai Motor support, and validated it on an actual vehicle. Tests at a circuit confirmed shorter lap times, better braking and cornering, and improved stability.

imec advances ferroelectric memory as potential alternative to DRAM and NAND

As memory shortages deepen at AI data centres, European semiconductor research group imec has unveiled next-generation ferroelectric memory technology that could replace DRAM and NAND flash. The work, presented at the 2026 IEEE-JSAP VLSI Technology and Circuits Symposium, centres on a low-voltage ferroelectric capacitor and a vertically stacked transistor structure using backgate modification. Imec said the research remains at proof-of-concept stage with technical challenges still to solve.

AI extends EV battery life by 23 percent, study says

A study finds that using artificial intelligence to control current during fast charging can extend electric vehicle battery life by up to 23 percent. Researchers at Sweden’s Chalmers University of Technology applied reinforcement learning to a battery management system to adjust current and voltage in real time based on battery condition, reducing stress as the battery ages. The results are based on simulations, and commercial use will depend on reproducing performance in real vehicles.
