The increase of the effective efficiency of the internal combustion engines is important for the fuel consumption reduction and the CO2 emission reduction. The variable engine valve trains are important for the gas exchanges and influence directly the effective efficiency of the internal combustion engine. With the increased electrifications of the vehicles, variable valve train based on electricity driven actuators presents interest for investigation for gasoline engines for vehicular application.
