Based on a state space dynamic model of a typical automotive driveline, a new control technique for the dry clutch engagement process is proposed. The feedback controller is designed following an optimal control approach by using the crankshaft speed and the clutch disk speed as state variables: a tracking problem is formulated and solved by using the engine torque and the clutch torque as control variables. The controller guarantees fast engagement, minimum slipping losses and comfortable lock-up. The critical standing start operating conditions are considered. Numerical results show the good performance obtained with the proposed controller.

Abstract
Based on a state space dynamic model of a typical automotive driveline, a new control technique for the dry clutch engagement process is proposed. The feedback controller is designed following an optimal control approach by using the crankshaft speed and the clutch disk speed as state variables: a tracking problem is formulated and solved by using the engine torque and the clutch torque as control variables. The controller guarantees fast engagement, minimum slipping losses and comfortable lock-up. The critical standing start operating conditions are considered. Numerical results show the good performance obtained with the proposed controller.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
