With the aim to further reduce and limit pollutant emissions and fuel consumption towards carbon neutrality, researchers and automotive manufacturers have been studying new combustion technologies, such as low temperature combustions, which provide an efficient combustion with low pollutant emissions. Despite innovative combustion techniques, such as Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) and Gasoline compression ignition (GCI), proved to reduce pollutant emissions and increase efficiency of internal combustion engines, their large-scale deployment has been limited by problems in combustion management and stability. In fact, the challenge related to these innovative combustion techniques consists in the development of new control strategies and new calibration methodologies, which allow to limit their combustion instability.
