Abstract: An assembly includes a rotor housing, a first rotor, a lubrication system, a first vibration sensor, and an engine control system. The rotor housing forms a first rotor cavity. The first rotor is configured for rotation within the first rotor cavity. The first rotor includes the plurality of apex seals. The lubrication system is configured to supply a lubrication flow for lubrication of the plurality of apex seals. The first vibration sensor is on the rotor housing. The first vibration sensor is configured to generate a vibration measurement signal. The engine control system includes a processor in communication with a non-transitory memory storing instructions, which instructions when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: identify that the vibration measurement signal exceeds a first vibration threshold, and increase a flow rate of the lubrication flow based on an identification of the vibration measurement signal exceeding the first vibration threshold.

Abstract: A rotary internal combustion engine has: a rotor; a housing circumscribing a rotor cavity, the rotor received within the rotor cavity, the housing having a peripheral wall and a side housing assembly secured to the peripheral wall, the side housing assembly having plates located at spaced apart ends of the peripheral wall, the plates defining seal running surfaces in sealing engagement with opposed end faces of the rotor, the plates made of silicon carbide.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for preventing, controlling or treating a fungal infection on a plant. The method includes applying to such plant organ a non-fungicidal amount or a potentiating amount of a composition including a potentiating agent of a plant defense molecule, in association with a phytopharmaceutical vehicle.
