This paper proposes the intelligent shift algorithm for automatic transmissions and develops the simulator for the its optimization and analysis. It provides the comfortable ride to drivers and improves the driving force efficiency without any loss of the performance. In addition, the developed simulator not only cuts the commercialization cost but provides diverse test conditions. The analysis and optimization of the proposed scheme are verified by the developed simulator. As a simple example, the developed simulator verifies the proposed algorithm and shows the comparative result with the existed automatic transmission shift algorithm.

We have investigated the Intelligent Shift-map Module(ISM) to improve some problems in the conventional Automatic Transmission(AT) for automobiles. The typical AT lacks flexibility regarding the shift point because it does not consider the driver's habits and inclinations. Also it often is occurred phenomenon like kick-down. Therefore, we designed a decision module which considers the driving style of the individual driver. The driving style was determined by the inclination of the driver and the driving technique using actual automobile data. The Hierarchical Neural Network(HNN) was applied in generating an intelligent shift map with Multilayer Neural Network(MNN). It was found that the proposed ISM provided a suitable shift point and time because the necessary toque and velocity of the automobile was considered along with the driving style of each driver when designing the ISM.

The quality of the automatic transmission shift for a wheel loader has been generally evaluated by driver's perception. However the subjective evaluation of the drivers is not always directly related to the shift quality. It is necessary to set up the method for an objective assessment of the shift quality. In this paper, a quantitative assessment method has been developed for the shift quality of the automatic transmission in a wheel loader. The indices for the evaluation were selected through the various tests like the acceleration and the turbine rpm as well as the subjective evaluation of the driver, and were validated by the correlation between subjective and objective assessments using a psychophysical power law. Based on this method, the shift quality of a wheel loader has been evaluated quantitatively under various shift conditions.

This study was attempted to develop a remote controllable speed sprayer in order to protect an operator from agricultural chemicals. For the purpose of remote controllable transmission was developed by using one chip microcomputer. The following results could be summarized in this study. 1. Remote controllable transmission developed had not made even a single mistake during the test performed 100 times repeat. Thus, it could that this machine was very accurate. 2. One chip microcomputer was made by machine language and its was with in 3 sec's which was the same as human did. 3. One chip microcomputer which was used in the experiment could be widely used to automation of agricultural machinery, since it is smaller and chiper than any other similar ones such as personal computer, lap tap, one board computer. 4. Since, farm tractor has the same type of transmission as this system, it also could be adapted to farm tractors. 5. In this experiment, transmission lever was remote controll were designed to operate simultaneously. Thus, this system developed was more complicate than conventional system. However, by removing this transmission lever and by mounting the remote controll system at the speed sprayer, it would be higher and easier to handle than the conventional one.

기계적 구동장치와 연계된 메카트로닉스 시스템에 대한 개발 시험은 비용, 공간 및 시간 등의 측면에서 제약을 받는다. 이러한 제약은 에뮬레이터를 이용한 개발 과정을 통해서 개선의 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 본 연구에서 설계 제작된 에뮬레이터는 전자 제어식 변속기에 적용된 장치로서 기계적 메카니즘 없이 전자 제어 메카니즘을 완전하게 에뮬레이션 할 수 있는 가능성을 보여준 것이다. 이러한 에뮬레이터를 이용하여 전자 제어장치의 개발 기간을 단축시키고 문제점을 빠르게 찾아낼 수 있다. 에뮬레이터의 개발은 수학적 모델링에 의해서, 장치에 대한 검증은 실차 시험을 통해 얻을 결과와 비교하여 수행된다.

대량생산체제로 제작되는 자동차용 변속기는 일단 양산에 돌입하고부터는 막대한 retooling비 용의 지불없이는 좀처럼 그 모양이나 중요설계치수가 변경될 수 없기 때문에, 초기설계단계에 서의 다양하고 신중한 고려가 그 후의 어느 단계보다 중요하다. 자동차용 변속기의 치차설계자는 치차상의 주어진 공간내에서 가장 튼튼하고 소리없는 치차를 설계하기 위하여 모듈(module), 압력각, 치깊이 등이 표준에서 벗어나는 특수 cutter를 사용하도록 요구할 수밖에 없다(이러한 비표준 cutter의 제작을 위해서는 다소 더 많은 시간과 경비가 소요될지 모르지만, 이 문제는 양산체제의 특수성 속에 충분히 소화흡수된다). 표준치차의 경우에는 대부분의 설계 데이터가 테 이블이나 그래프로 주어져 있지만 모듈, 압력각, 치깊이 등이 표준에서 벗어나는 치차에 있어서는 이것들을 별도로 계산하지 않으면 안된다. 더욱이 세계자동차 메이커가 소형화와 경량화로 치 닫고 있는 현 추세에 있어서는 더욱 정밀한 계산에 의한 데이터가 요구될 것이다. 본 보고서는 임의의 cutter를 사용하여 절삭한 치차의 fillet 부분에 있어서 fillet 곡선의 함수를 구하고 이 것으로부터 lewis방식의 굽힘강도계산식(대부분의 굽힘강도 계산식이 lewis 이론에 입각한 것이긴 하지만)에 사용되는 강도계 수를 approach 법으로 구하는 방법과 계산공식에 대하여 서술한 것이다. 여기서 취급하는 굴절법은 hobbing cutter 등에 의한 rack형 굴절법이다.

This study presents an analytical model of hydraulic clutch system of a power shift transmission to analyze pressure modulation characteristics. A typical hydraulic clutch system was modeled by using AMESim in which the parameters of major components were measured for simulation. Test apparatus was established using the components of power shift and power shuttle clutches with instrumental equipment. The results of simulation and experiment were so close that the proposed analytical model in this study was validated. However the cylinder model analogized clutch dynamics need to be improved in future study. The effects of parameters of orifice diameter, accumulator stroke and oil temperature on pressure modulation were analyzed respectively. The results of parameter sensitivity analysis show that modulation time and set pressure can be easily adjusted by changing parameter values. It is also found that the hydraulic clutch system used in this study is so susceptible to oil temperature that cooling equipment is necessary.

Military Vehicles of the Korean army had been developed before 2004 and used manual transmissions. Manual transmissions contain a clutch system regulating the force from engine to transmission. In this study, a 2.5-ton military vehicle's clutch system was investigated. The existing clutch system had the characteristics that need to adjust the clearance between the clutch cover and release bearing. Improper clearance led to early wear of the clutch disk and failure of the clutch cover. To solve these problems, an improved clutch system was suggested and tested. The improved clutch system contains auto adjustment of the clearance and an enhanced clutch disk. To verify the improved clutch systems, 2 stage tests were conducted: an accelerated life test of the clutch system, and a driving test by trainee of driving more than 3,000km. As a result, the problems caused by the improper clearance adjustment were solved and this design was verified.

Torsional vibrations, such as the gear rattle of the manual transmission in vehicle systems, are correlated with the firing stroke from the engine. These vibro-impacts can be examined based upon linear time-invariant analysis. In order to understand the gear dynamics, a specific manual transmission with a front-engine front-wheel drive configuration is investigated. A method to reduce the degrees of freedom is suggested based upon the eigensolutions and frequency response functions, which will lead to the development of an efficient matrix size. The dynamic characteristics of single- and dual-mass flywheels are then compared. The effect of the dual-mass flywheel is investigated based upon the mobility analysis, which will lead to understanding of the concepts for avoiding vibro-impacts. A linear time-invariant system model is examined by employing the effective clutch stiffness from a two-stage clutch damper. Thus, the relationship between the dynamic characteristics and the clutch damper can be predicted by assuming a combination of different stage stiffness levels.
