Abstract
It is well known that the dynamic behavior of the engine and clutch greatly affect the torque oscillation of the driveline, and even the steering system. A smooth and fast clutch-to-clutch shift is necessary. The clutch-to-clutch shift is usually divided into two phases, the torque phase and the inertia phase. During the torque phase, the precise timing of releasing and applying clutches is crucial for the prevention of clutch tie-up and traction interruption. By using the clutch pressure observer designed in Chap. 2, the off-going clutch is disengaged at the moment when transmitted torque is approaching zero, which contributes to the reduction of shift shock and prevention of clutch tie-up.
