A study of shift control suing the clutch pressure pattern in automatic transmission

摘要

It is necessary to understand the overall system including engine, torque converter, multiplate clutch, band brake, one-way clutch, planetary gears, road load and tyre to analyse the performance of the vehicle powertrain. The performance of the powertrain can be analysed using dynamic models including transient characteristics and the equations of motion are derived from the dynamic models of the powertrain. In this study, the shift transient characteristics of the vehicle equipped with a Ravigneaux-type planetary gears automatic transmission has been investigated. A shift control using engine torque reduction and optimum pressure trajectory has also been investigated in order to enhance transient characteristics during shift.
