"The MSc thesis work is aimed to analyze, simulate and build an unique engine, where a fully functional prototype is made. The engine is a W-9, ie a nine cylinder four-stroke engine with three cylinder rows in an extremely compact, stiff and lightweight construction.
The goal with the thesis work is to scientifically combine different areas where advanced computer programs is used to construct a combustion engine from scratch. The construction is inspired by racing engines and motorcycles with broad power band and high maximum rpm. The engine components is made in lightweight and strong materials."
