Critical Topics in Exhaust Gas Aftertreatment reviews the major technical issues of the
subject from an applications and systems perspective. It describes where today's …

Mathematical modeling of three-way catalytic converter (3WCC) operation is increasingly
employed in automotive catalyst and converter systems optimization. Oxygen storage is …

Previously, the authors have proposed the concept of piston trajectory-based combustion
control enabled by free piston engines (FPEs). With this novel method, the FPE realizes in …

The transient response of a catalytic converter to fluctuations in exhaust gas composition
has a significant impact on tailpipe emissions. Advanced emission control strategies …

An increased concern about automotive pollution in the last 30 years has led to very
stringent emission standards. The subject of the research presented in this thesis was the …

Though very important for the system performance, the dynamic behavior of the catalytic
converter has mainly been neglected in the design of exhaust emission control systems …

Numerous models for the simulation of chemical phenomena in three-way catalytic
converters (3WCCs) have been proposed in the literature, ranging from models of the …

For the control of three-way catalytic converters (TWCs), simplified models of not only the
TWC but also the λ-sensors upstream and downstream of the TWC are required. The …

Reversible catalyst deactivation dynamics can have a significant effect on both conversion
efficiency and post-catalyst EGO sensor distortion, yet are often ignored in conventional …

The influence of perturbations in the exhaust gas composition on the operation of three-way
catalytic converters (3WCC) has been the subject of many research works. This paper aims …
