What is Overview of Free Piston Engines about?

The free-piston engine is a linear combustion engine without a crankshaft. The piston motion is controlled by forces from combustion gases, a rebound device, and a load device. Free-piston engines were developed in the 1930s-1960s and come in single piston, dual piston, and opposed piston configurations. They have advantages of simplicity and compactness but challenges of control and fuel efficiency.
