Free-piston diesel engine dynamics and control [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2001 American Control Conference. (Cat. No.01CH37148), 2001 Free-piston diesel engines are characterized by freely moving pistons without any rigid crankshaft or camshaft connected to the pistons. This allows a highly compact and efficient engine design, but requires automatic control of the piston motion. This paper present a dynamic mathematical model of a free-piston diesel engine, a control oriented dynamic

Development of Hydrogen-Free Diamond-Like Carbon Coating for Piston Rings
Tribology Online, 2017 The first piston ring application of a hydrogen-free diamond-like carbon (H-free DLC) coating to a mass-production gasoline engine reduces friction. It is found that the friction reduction effect between the cylinder bore and piston is 18%.
