Summary:

Valve train motion was investigated with computer simulation technique. The application of a 5-mass model was found to accurately predict the valve train behavior. It was identified that valve train stiffness and close-side characteristics of valve lift curve have significant effects on bounce occurrence. A valve train with high stiffness tends to develop bounce after jump, while on one with low stiffness, bounce starts in the absence of jump. These findings allowed to develop a new cam form with use of harmonic curves for elevating the revolution limit of the valve train
