Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method for braking of an internal combustion engine, in particular a four-stroke internal combustion engine. The method involves a partial opening of at least one gas discharge valve of at least one cylinder of the internal combustion engine during a compression stroke of the internal combustion engine. The method involves a holding of a partial opening of the at least one gas discharge valve during an expansion stroke of the internal combustion engine following the compression stroke and during an exhaust stroke of the internal combustion engine following the expansion stroke. The method involves a closing of the partly opened at least one gas discharge valve at the end of the exhaust stroke or during an intake stroke of the internal combustion engine following the exhaust stroke.
