  2. Friction modifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction_modifier

    They are currently used in many engine oils and, more recently, in gear oils. [1] They reduce friction by forming two-dimensional molybdenum disulphide layers on rubbing surfaces. [4] Functionalized polymers, which can be tailored to adsorb specifically on polar surfaces, have been shown to markedly reduce friction and wear. [5]

  3. Bicycle and motorcycle dynamics - Wikipedia

    Manufacturers employ a variety of technologies to reduce or damp these vibrations, such as engine balance shafts, rubber engine mounts, [104] and tire weights. [105] The problems that vibration causes have also spawned an industry of after-market parts and systems designed to reduce it.

  4. Motor oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

    Motor oil, engine oil, or engine lubricant is any one of various substances used for the lubrication of internal combustion engines. They typically consist of base oils enhanced with various additives, particularly antiwear additives , detergents, dispersants , and, for multi-grade oils, viscosity index improvers .

  5. Desmodromic valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desmodromic_valve

    The common valve spring system is satisfactory for traditional mass-produced engines that do not rev highly and are of a design that requires low maintenance. [1] At the period of initial desmodromic development, valve springs were a major limitation on engine performance because they would break from metal fatigue.

  6. Balance shaft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_shaft

    Any inline engine with an odd number of cylinders has a primary imbalance, which causes an end-to-end rocking motion. As each cylinder bank in a V6 has three cylinders, each cylinder bank experiences this motion. [8] Balance shaft(s) are used on various V6 engines to reduce this rocking motion.

  8. Connecting rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connecting_rod

    This significantly reduces engine performance, since the circular piston rings are unable to properly seal against the oval-shaped cylinder walls. The amount of sideways force is proportional to the angle of the connecting rod, therefore longer connecting rods will reduce the amount of sideways force and engine wear.
