The current trend in automobiles is towards electrical vehicles, but for the most part these
vehicles still require an internal combustion engine to provide additional range and …

An experimental study of temporally and spatially resolved spark-induced breakdown
spectroscopy (SIBS) of methane and hydrogen-enriched methane mixtures is reported for …

This article presents an investigation of energy transfer, flame propagation, and emissions
formation mechanisms in a four-cylinder, downsized and boosted, spark ignition engine …

Searching for further reduction of fuel consumption simultaneously with the reduction of toxic
