Modeling and Estimation for Stepped Automatic Transmission with Clutch-To- Clutch Shift Technology Dissertation MODELING AND ESTIMATION FOR STEPPED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITH CLUTCH-TO- CLUTCH SHIFT TECHNOLOGY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sarawoot Watechagit, M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Krishnaswamy Srinivasan, Advisor Professor Chia-Hsiang Menq ______________________________ Professor Gregory Washington Advisor Department of Mechanical Engineering Copyright by Sarawoot Watechagit 2004 ABSTRACT A major problem in designing controllers for automatic transmissions in automobiles is that many of the relevant variables characterizing the performance of the power train are not measurable because of sensor cost and reliability considerations. This dissertation presents the development of model-based estimation for a stepped automatic transmission with clutch-to-clutch shift technology, to provide real-time information about some necessary but un-measurable variables. Specifically, model-based real-time estimation of clutch pressures for the clutches involved in the gear shifting process is developed and validated. In this dissertation, mathematical models for all systems affecting the dynamic behavior of the transmission, namely, the torque converter, transmission mechanical components, shift hydraulic system, and vehicle and driveline are developed. The main focus, however, is on the development of mathematical models describing the dynamic behavior of the transmission mechanical components, viz, the dynamics of the gear sets inside the transmission and the shift hydraulic system. This dissertation presents the development of a nonlinear dynamic model for the shift hydraulic system for the transmission of interest. The result of the model development presented here includes a fully detailed model, which is complex and highly nonlinear, as well as a simplified ii model which is used for real-time implementation. Resulting models are validated against experimental data. The availability of the shift hydraulic model leads to the development of the model-based clutch pressure observer. Sliding mode observers are used due to their ability to deal with nonlinear systems, robustness against uncertainties, and ease of implementation. In this dissertation, both continuous-time and discrete-time sliding mode observers are developed and implemented. Since the turbine torque is needed by the observer but is not available, an adaptive sliding mode observer is also implemented in this research to improve the on-line estimation of the turbine torque, and hence improve the accuracy of the clutch pressure estimation. The resulting observers are validated via off-line simulation tests, and are also implemented in real-time at different sampling frequencies on a test vehicle, in order to demonstrate observer performance and establish the feasibility of using the designed observers on current transmission control units. iii Dedicated to my mother iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank firstly my advisor, Professor Krishnaswamy Srinivasan.

Summary 12. Self assessment 1 1. INTRODUCTION A diesel locomotive must fulfill the following essential requirements- 1. It should be able to start a heavy load and hence should exert a very high starting torque at the axles. 2. It should be able to cover a very wide speed range. 3. It should be able to run in either direction with ease. Further, the diesel engine has the following drawbacks: • It cannot start on its own. • To start the engine, it has to be cranked at a particular speed, known as a starting speed. • Once the engine is started, it cannot be kept running below a certain speed known as the lower critical speed (normally 35-40% of the rated speed). Low critical speed means that speed at which the engine can keep itself running along with its auxiliaries and accessories without smoke and vibrations.

This torque-assist mechanism becomes a torque transfer path during gearshifts, in order to overcome a typical dynamic problem of the AMTs, that is the driving force interruption. The mean power contributions during gearshifts are computed for different engine and ACL interventions, thus allowing to draw considerations useful for developing the control algorithms. The simulation results prove the advantages in terms of gearshift quality and ride comfort of the analysed transmission.

  • Torque Converter Clutch Systems
    Torque Converter Clutch Systems Dr. techn Robert Fischer Dipl.-Ing. Dieter Otto Introduction Modern vehicle drive-train engineering must exhaust all potential drive-train options in order to provide maximum acceleration and fuel efficiency with high overall efficiency and optimum comfort. At the same time, attention must be paid to ever stricter emission standards. These requirements often work at cross-purposes with each other, which means that improving emissions often entails increasing weight, fuel consumption and decreasing acceleration, not to mention incurring constantly increasing costs [1]. Despite this trend, LuK has developed a torque controlled clutch system - called the TorCon System - that increases driver comfort, reduces fuel consumption and emissions, improves acceleration and even results in a 4- speed automatic transmission that is superior to a conventional 5-speed automatic. This means that wherever an expensive 5-speed automatic transmission is used due to fuel consumption and acceleration requirements, the same results can be achieved with a 4-speed automatic transmission. LuK's design philosophy is centered on holistic system design, and the automatic transmission area is no exception. This approach meets the demands that automotive industry have come to expect of it's system suppliers. Given the parameters it is not possible to fall back on large test facilities and a fleet of test vehicles. Yet LuK is confident that it is a competent development partner and can ensure the introduction of new transmission systems into production with the shortest possible development lead times. The following demonstration of LuK's development philosophy shows why this is possible. LuK, as a component supplier, has given special thought to the total system, not just to the parts supplied by LuK.

And now here's your host, Harvard Law School grad, feminist rockstar, and Master Coach, Kara Loewentheil. Hello my chickens. How are you? I am amazing. I always say that because it’s always true. But here’s why it’s always true. I was just coaching one of my clients about this last week and I was saying to her that our evaluation of our own mental or emotional state is an optional thought. How we choose to categorize or characterize or describe our own mental and emotional state, that description is not objective. It’s not a circumstance. It’s an optional thought. So I might have a day filled with negative thoughts and emotions, but during the day and at the end of the day, I can choose whether to call that a bad day or just an average day or an awesome day. See what I mean? I get to decide what to think about my own experience and my own thoughts and feelings. It’s not just true that a day when you have negative thoughts and feelings is a bad day. Like, that’s not objective. That’s a decision to describe it that way, that bad means I had negative thoughts and feelings.

  • Transmission (Mechanics) - Wikipedia 8/28/20, 119 PM
    Transmission (mechanics) - Wikipedia 8/28/20, 119 PM Transmission (mechanics) A transmission is a machine in a power transmission system, which provides controlled application of the power. Often the term 5 speed transmission refers simply to the gearbox that uses gears and gear trains to provide speed and torque conversions from a rotating power source to another device.[1][2] In British English, the term transmission refers to the whole drivetrain, including clutch, gearbox, prop shaft (for rear-wheel drive), differential, and final drive shafts. In American English, however, the term refers more specifically to the gearbox alone, and detailed Single stage gear reducer usage differs.[note 1] The most common use is in motor vehicles, where the transmission adapts the output of the internal combustion engine to the drive wheels. Such engines need to operate at a relatively high rotational speed, which is inappropriate for starting, stopping, and slower travel. The transmission reduces the higher engine speed to the slower wheel speed, increasing torque in the process. Transmissions are also used on pedal bicycles, fixed machines, and where different rotational speeds and torques are adapted. Often, a transmission has multiple gear ratios (or simply "gears") with the ability to switch between them as speed varies. This switching may be done manually (by the operator) or automatically. Directional (forward and reverse) control may also be provided. Single-ratio transmissions also exist, which simply change the speed and torque (and sometimes direction) of motor output. In motor vehicles, the transmission generally is connected to the engine crankshaft via a flywheel or clutch or fluid coupling, partly because internal combustion engines cannot run below a particular speed.
