Firstly, well done for tackling this topic.
I have studied your "Theoretical Weight Energy" wiki and there is however a few errors in it.
1/ You have written the following
********
Energy of momentum
E = 0.5 * W * V * V
E is given in joules
Where:
W is the weight in kg
V is velocity im meters per second
**************
That equation is actually the kinetic energy equation and not the momentum equation.
The kinetic energy equation is the correct equation to use though. As the KE equation uses mass as a parameter, might I suggest writing the equation as KE = 0.5*m*v*v.
2/ You give the units for weight as kG. However, strictly speaking kG is a unit of mass.
Anyway, I certainly think that your approach can lead to ways of improving fuel economy.
