Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods are for controlling internal combustion engines having a plurality of piston-cylinders that cause rotation of a crankshaft. A crankshaft sensor is configured to sense rotational speed of the crankshaft. A controller is configured to calculate an acceleration for each piston-cylinder based upon the rotational speed of the crankshaft and then balance the accelerations of the respective piston-cylinders by modifying a combustion input to one or more of the piston-cylinders in order to reduce engine vibration.
