Abstract (en)

In an aspect of the present disclosure, a method for deriving a control parameter for a variable valve actuation assembly (40, 140, 240) using a valve spring driven /cam decoupled valve closing process comprises the steps of providing a camshaft driven valve actuation assembly (40, 140, 240) that is configured to provide a cam driven valve opening procedure and the valve spring driven / cam decoupled valve closing process, rotating the camshaft through a sequence of the cam driven valve opening process and the valve spring driven / cam decoupled valve closing process, during the rotation, measuring a torque to be provided for the rotation, and deriving the control parameter from the detected torque.
