For reduction of engine‐out emissions and improvement of fuel economy, closed‐loop
control of the combustion process has been explored and documented by many …

Electronic engine controls based on real time diagnosis of combustion process can
significantly help in complying with the stricter and stricter regulations on pollutants …

Recent regulations for emission control from combustion engines have led to focus on
various methods to monitor control and the combustion process. The presented work …

Presented is a real-time engine brake torque estimation model where the instantaneous
measured engine speed serves as the model input. The model is comprised of notch filters …

This work is focused on the development and validation of a spark advance controller,
based on a piston “damage” model and a predictive knock model. The algorithm represents …

Diesel engines are widely used due to their high reliability, high thermal efficiency, fuel
availability, and low consumption. They are used to generate power, eg, in passenger cars …

Optimal sealing performance of the piston ring is an important condition for the internal
combustion engines (ICE) to maintain combustion efficient. The objective of this paper is …

Diesel engines used in power plants and marine propulsion are especially sensitive to
outage events. Any advance in the early detection of failure will increase the reliability of the …
