THE APPLICATIONS OF NONLINEAR MODELS OF MOVEMENT TRANSFORMATION MECHANISMS IN HEAT ENGINES
The variant of nonlinear dissipative models of the mechanism converting a reciprocating motion into rotational, which is in construction of a piston internal combustion engine is considered. It is shown that nonlinear effects arising in the svstem as a whole, have a significant impact on the dvnamics of the mechanism. Moreover, it is indicated such applications of the model, as the stability anatysis, chaotic dvnamics, definition of boundarv and initial conditions for solving strength problems, etc.
