In this paper, the analysis of the shift transient characteristics for the Ravigneaux type automatic transmission has been carried out using dynamic models of the automatic trnasmission. It is necessary to understand the overall system including multi-plate clutch, band brake, one way clutch, and planetary gears. The equations of motion are derived from the dynamic models of the automatic transmission. The GUI computer simulation program has been developed to analyze the shift transient characteristics of the vehicle equipped with the Ravigneaux type automatic transmission.
