1. On Surface Topography of Cylinder Liners
Abstract : The frictional losses, oil consumption and emissions in internal combustion engines are in great extent controlled by the cylinder liner surface topography. This emphasises the importance of: investigating the liner’s topography by objectively characterising it, investigating its effects on the tribological function to gain a better understanding and improving its manufacturing.

2. Towards functional characterisation for cylinder liner surfaces
Abstract : The demands on decreased environmental impact from vehicles force the automotive industry to develop engines with reduced engine oil and fuel consumption. Frictional losses in the piston ring cylinder liner system accounts for approximately 20 % of the total frictional losses within an engine. READ MORE

3. Friction in Piston Ring - Cylinder Liner Contacts
Abstract : With today’s striving towards reduction of fuel consumption it is moreimportant than ever to understand the function of different componentsin the internal combustion engine. There is a need to develop and usetools to investigate and predict the result of specific design changesmade on the components. READ MORE

4. Oil consumption and Friction in a Piston Ring-Cylinder Liner assembly.-A multifunctional Surface Approach
Abstract : About a half of the frictional losses in an internal combustion engine come from the interactions between the piston assembly and cylinder liner surface. The tribological considerations in the contact between the piston ring and cylinder liner have attracted much attention over the past few decades. READ MORE

5. A Surface Engineering Approach to Reduction of Frictional Losses of Heavy Duty Diesel Engines
Abstract : Reducing emissions is a top priority within heavy duty diesel engine development and research. The aim of the work is to decrease the fuel consumption by decreasing frictional losses of the Power Cylinder Unit.Full scale testing of engine components improvements is time-consuming and costly.
