- Additional information
- This paper emanates from an EPSRC Program Grant, with the acronym ENCYCLOPAEDIC (EP/ G012350/1). It presents the predictive methodology for assessment of losses of piston-cylinder and connecting rod bearings of high-performance engines. It shows the importance of in-depth tribological assessment of new engine technologies in improving energy efficiency and reduced emissions for cylinder deactivation technology. Its findings contributed in part to the development of a new 12-cylinder engine at Aston Martin Lagonda for the new DB11 series.
