Abstract: Methods are provided for managing forcing function frequency profiles during operation of a multi-cylinder engine. A first stroke mode for a first cylinder is selected and comprises at least a sequential deactive operation of the opening and the closing of a first intake valve and a first exhaust valve during at least two reciprocations of a first reciprocating piston. The first stroke mode is operated on the first cylinder, a second stroke mode is operated on a second cylinder, and a third stroke mode is operated on the remaining cylinders to meet or exceed a required torque output and to form a first aggregate of forcing function frequency profiles that comprises primary forcing function frequency profiles that are less than or approximate in amplitude and less than or approximate in frequency value to one of the respective baseline of primary forcing function frequency profiles.

Abstract: A rocker arm can comprise a forked outer arm assembly and a T-shaped inner arm assembly comprising an inner arm body comprising a valve side, a latch side, a bearing hole on the valve side, and a latch body on the latch side, the latch body comprising inner arm extensions extending away from the latch body. A pivot axle can connect the outer arm assembly to the inner arm assembly so that the inner arm assembly is configured to pivot with respect to the outer arm assembly. A latch assembly can comprise a latch configured to selectively extend to and retract from a latch seat on the latch body to selectively lock the inner arm assembly with respect to the outer arm assembly or unlock the inner arm assembly to pivot within the outer arm assembly.
