Abstract

This paper focuses on the simulation of clutch engagement behavior in automated manual transmissions (AMTs) to virtualize the vehicle start-up maneuver through implementation of the driveline model and the role of transmission control unit featuring different levels of knowledge regarding to clutch material frictional response. Simulation results underline the crucial requirement of accurate prediction of the frictional coefficient evolution in each clutch maneuver, particularly regarding to the interface temperature estimation to develop effective models and control algorithms.
