“…SI-CI can be divided into two categories [10]. One category is spark-assisted compression ignition (SACI) [2,[4][5][6][7][8][9], where the spark is used to increase the robustness of the ignition control in HCCI although combustion can be realized without the spark. The other category is flame-induced auto-ignition (FIAI) [3,10,12,13], where spark-triggered flame propagation causes auto-ignition without engine knock and misfiring occurs without the spark.…”
