Modeling and Formulation of Optimal Clutching Sequence in Automatic Transmission

This paper presents a methodological approach for formulating the clutching sequence associated with an automatic transmission. Rank ordered clustering technique has been used to achieve the optimal clutching sequence which is compared with the present designs to show the reduction in the number of actuators thereby leading to a more compact gearbox design. The proposed transmission schematic or stick diagram aids in developing the gearbox layout design. Data with respect to actuation and gear shifting sequence has been retrieved from the available literature, including patent documents, and has been used in this proposed heuristics based methodology for modeling actuation sequence in a gearbox. The proposed modeling approach is simpler for designing gearbox and implementing it for automotive applications.
