1. Alternative Combustion Strategies for Gasoline Engines
Abstract : Due to increasingly strict legislative demands and customer concerns regarding CO2emissions, there is a need to develop and implement new combustion strategies forgasoline (Otto) engines. In attempts to meet this need, most attention is focusing onthe low load/speed range where the classic spark ignition strategy (SI) has poorefficiency, mainly due to the throttling of the intake air causing pumping losses.

2. The HCCI Fuel Number - Measuring and Describing Auto-ignition for HCCI Combustion Engines
Abstract : HCCI is an advanced combustion concept, using premixed fuel and air with a diluted charge. This is thermodynamically favorable, leading to high efficiency and therefore lower CO2 emissions. READ MORE

3. Computer Modeling of HCCI Combustion
Abstract : During the last decade an alternative to conventional internal combustion engines, i.e. spark-ignited and Diesel engines, has been under investigation by an ever-increasing number of research groups. READ MORE

4. Data-Rich Multivariable Control of Heavy-Duty Engines
Abstract : The combustion engine is today the dominant technology for transportation of goods and people world-wide. Concerns for global warming, toxic exhaust emissions, as well as cost and availability of fuel have in recent years created incentives for technological evolution of combustion engines. READ MORE

5. Discribing the Auto-Ignition Quality of Fuels in HCCI Engines
Abstract : The Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine is a promising engine concept that emits low concentrations of NOx and particulates and still has a high efficiency. Since the charge is auto-ignited, the auto-ignition quality of the fuel is of major importance. READ MORE
