4. Advanced notions of multi-cylinder acycling

In this section, we introduce more advanced notions of multi-cylinder engine acyclism. They can be skimmed over by the novice reader at first, but should be studied later for a more comprehensive understanding of acycling.

4.1 Factors influencing acyclism

The instantaneous torque of a multi-cylinder engine is given by :

Cm(α)=∑n=1NCM(α+φn)=
