lugging

GBK English to Romanian Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks
Definition from evolution:
Lugging happens when an engine's rpm is below its power curve and is struggling to give motion to the vehicle. This usually happens when the car is going uphill in a higher gear, and can be prevented by downshifting, which will usually put the car back into its powerband.
Example sentences:
Off road, even the 2.61 low range is barely able to make up for the 3.08 axle gears, providing less than adequate power for off-roading. Now add a set of 33-inch tires, and even at 60 mph the engine is lugging around 1,800 rpm, way out of the powerband of this engine. (4wheeloffroad)
The friction point can be felt with the car starts moving, and engine RPMs drop usually along with the noise of the engine. This is also the point that many beginners let the clutch out too quickly, resulting in the engine lugging and the car bucking. (standardshift.com)
Actually, the way I learned because i was trying to save gas, was to shift into the next gear at the minimum speed so that the car wasn't lugging. Lugging is when you're not going fast enough for a higher gear so your car kind of groans as it moves because that particular gear gives too much speed and not enough power for your speed.

subturare

Definition from Forum auto:
Subturarea este fenomenul care apare atunci când motorului i se cere o sarcină mare la o turaţie mică şi cuplu mic. <br />Cu cât sarcina este mai mare la o turaţie a motorului care nu se înscrie pe curba de cuplu care să asigure învingerea sarcinii respective, cu atât gradul de subturare este mai mare.
Example sentences:
Conceptul de subturare nu este intalnit in cartea masinii. (Forum auto)
Dacă tot am pomenit de modul manual al cutiei de viteze, vă putem spune că acesta este ideală pentru a stoarce tot ce e mai bun din cei 150 CP oferiţi, schimbările efectuându-se cu un delay minim, iar protecţia motorului la supraturare sau subturare făcându-se prin schimbarea automată a treptei, indiferent de opţiunea aleasă de şofer. (Web-site "Informatii auto")
Accelereaza extrem de prompt chiar si in treptele mari de viteza. Nu are intarzieri, nu are tendinta de subturare si nici de supraturare, nu e galagios si pare ca face totul lejer ca un atlet. (Web-site "AutoExpert")
Note from asker:
La verdad no creo que sea indispensable para "awareness of the information types" una palabra diferente a 'conocimiento'. Es el conocer y discriminar entre diferentes tipos de información. Yo es lo que usaría.
Si son oraciones consecutivas, capaz se pueden reescribir en una sola oración y en una de esas se gana fluidez de lectura.
