...D. T. Hossein Rokni; Rudolf J. Seethaler; Abbas S. Milani In this study, the mechanical design of a fully flexible valve actuation system (FFVA) for intake valves of naturally aspirated internal combustion engines is optimized. The original FFVA design used a connecting rod in order to transform...

... Collaborative Optimization framework and the multiobjective approach of the compromise Decision Support Problem. To demonstrate the proposed framework, the design of a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine containing two subsystem analyses is presented. The results indicate that the proposed...

... model gives applicable results primarily for medium- and low-speed internal combustion engines where our TAM BF 6L 515C is ranked. In such a case, the effects of elasticity and damping are not very high yet. Using the described simplifications, we calculated the contact forces between the valve gear...
