The frequent stops of the typical postal delivery vehicle make it an attractive application for regenerative braking. The hydro-mechanical automatic transmission described in SAE paper 2014-01-1717 co....
Transmission designs over the years have evolved significantly achieving more efficiency in terms of fuel economy, comfort and reduction in emissions. This paper describes a Dc motor based E-shift mec....
There has been a growing need in recent years to further improve vehicle fuel efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions. JATCO began mass production of a transmission for rear-wheel-drive (RWD) hybrid vehic....
General Motors has introduced a new front wheel drive seven speed dry dual clutch automatic transmission in 2014. The 250 Nm input torque rated gear box was designed and engineered for a global market....
The purpose of the article is to describe different possibilities of the innovative concept of the closed-loop test rig. The performed tests will be demonstrated with the example of measured data. Fir....
A new CVT that is lighter in weight and more highly efficient than the previous CVT for use in compact vehicles has been developed and used in the 2014 model year FIT. The allowable torque capacity wa....
This paper presents a method to model the transmission mechanical power loss for the unloaded and loaded losses on a planetary gearset. In this analysis, the transmission losses are differentiated int....
Transmission is the drive line of a vehicle. Road load requirement are fulfilled by transmission system. Selection of gear ratios in early stage of design based on simulated vehicle performance reduce....
By optimizing parameters related to damping performance and adopting a layout that incorporates the turbine into the damper components, a “Turbine Twin-Damper” lock-up damper was developed that achiev....
Market trends clearly demonstrate the ongoing worldwide acceptance and success of modern automatic transmission solutions (AT, CVT, DCT) in both passenger cars and light trucks. This success is based ....
As the number of fixed gear ratios in automatic transmissions continues to increase in the pursuit of powertrain system efficiency, particular consideration must continue to be focused on optimizing t....
