Abstract: In this work, we present a survey on different topics related to Internal Combustion (IC) engines. The purpose of this work is to show the evolution on modeling, use of biofuels, simulation and/or implementation of different types of control laws applied to the IC engines. In the modeling section, we present a classification of the IC engines models according to their type; in this classification linear, nonlinear, and based on Neural Networks (NN) models are included. In the biofuels section, we included different works classified according to the used biofuel. In this classification, we consider pure biofuels (ethanol, methanol, hydrogen), gasoline-alcohol blends and gasoline-alcohol blend plus hydrogen as additive. In the control section, we include a classification according to the type of control, these are model-based control, observer-based control and intelligent control. Furthermore, in this section we include a review about Fault Diagnosis strategies applied to IC engines. Moreover, we present an overview of the failures provoked by corrosion effects when biofuels are used.
