Focus on transmission trends and Drivetrain Refinement

摘要

A forecast of future car transmission developments by FFD-Ricardo introduces this analysis of drivetrain developments — prior to an examination of refinement trends such as fuzzy-logic control. Refinement in CV drivetrain is reviewed through recent major developments by ZF and a test system by Renk for refining gear-shift. An important package by ABD for refining NVH in gearboxes and related systems is also featured prior to an update on test equipment developments.
