The objective of this study was to determine the cylinder pressure for valve event angles in order to determine the optimal strategy for the timing of valve events when independently-actuated valves are available. In this work, an artificial neural network is applied to create a prediction matrix to anticipate the best variable valve timing approach according to rotation speed. %A Bapiri, Sepehr %A Chaghaneh, Omid %A Ghomashi, Hossein %P 114-121 %R 10.12913/22998624/75968 %U https://doi.org/10.12913/22998624/75968
