The input torque ripple induced by combustion engines is a significant source of NVH(noise, vibration and harshness) problem in automotive transmissions. Because this torque fluctuation is primarily transmitted to the input shaft of automotive powertrains(e.g., automatic transmissions) when the lock-up clutches are closed, a torsional damper with helical springs is generally inserted between engine and transmissions to isolate the input vibratory energy, which is essential for the passenger comfort. The torsional vibration isolator exhibits frequency ranges in which there is low vibration transmissibility. However, the isolation performance is currently evaluated through the static torsional spring characteristics. In this study, the transmissibility of torsional spring dampers, essential dynamic performance index for vibration isolator, is first experimentally evaluated.

In this paper a simulation program for the powertrain control of a gasoline engine with automatic transmission is presented, The object-oriented programming approach has been pursued, and MATLAB/ SIMULINK was adopted for its environment. The purpose of the paper is to demonstrate the programmability of a control system in the object-oriented fashion so that the transferability of the objects is guaranteed. The program developed in the paper was applied to a gasoline engine and the mathematical models used in the paper were just adopted from the literature. It is shown that the simulation results and real experimental results coincide well. Therefore, it is expected that the program or objects made in the paper are useful for the automotive engineers when they design a new engine/transmission system or modify a part of existing system.

Material selection is one of the important activities in design and manufacturing. A selected material at the conceptual design stage affects functionality of the designed part as well as manufacturability and cost of the final product. Unfortunately there are not many accessible material databases that can be used for design. In this research, a web-based material database was constructed. In order to assist designers to compare different materials, two-dimensional and three-dimensional graphs were provided via the web browser Using these graphical tools, multi-dimensional comparison was available in more intuitive manner. As a case study, this system was applied for material selection of an automotive engine pulley.

A study to reduce the transient torque in shifting in automatic transmission has been very important issue. Recently it is really dominant to decrease the torque by using independent-acting hydraulic circuit because we can control the clutch pressure actively and elaborately. So we design the new hydraulic circuit to control the clutches in automatic transmission and make the module library of computer simulations, We apply the results to GM model automatic transmission and carry out 1longrightarrow4 shifting simulations. By this work we recognize the capability of active and elaborate clutch pressure control using new hydraulic circuit. In addition We develop the tool to simulate the powertrain system. It is easier to update and exchange the subsystem model or parameters than conventional simulation tools.

The main torsional vibration source of the powertrain is the fluctuation of engine torque. The gear rattle is impact generating in the backlash of the free gear due to this torsional vibration. Optimization of the clutch torsional characteristic is one of the effective method to reduce the idle gear rattle. Many researches have been reported on this problem but only few of them give sufficient consideration to the detailed clutch modeling and the experiment. This paper pays attention to the optimization of clutch design parameters and the experiment to reduce the idle gear rattle vibration and noise.

In this article we present a new, reference model based, unified strategy for engine control. Three main modes are considered: first is the driver control mode where the driver controls the engine via the pedal position; second is the dashpot mode, that is, when the driver takes his foot off the pedal; and, lastly is the idle speed control mode. These modes are unified so that seamless transitions between modes now becomes possible. The unification is achieved due to the introduction of a reference model for the engine speed whereby only the desired engine speed is different for different modes while the structure of the control system remains the same for all the modes. The scheme includes an observer that estimates unknown engine load torque. A proof of robustness with respect to unknown load disturbances both within the operating modes and during intermode transitions is given.

Recently, TCS(Traction Control System) is attracting attention, because it maintains traction ability and steerability of vehicles on low-$\mu$ surface roads by controlling the slip rate between tire and road surface. The development of TCS control law is difficult due to the highly nonlinearity and uncertainty involved in TCS. A fuzzy logic approach is appealing for TCS. In this paper, fuzzy logic controller for TCS is introduced and evaluated by the computer simulation with 8 DOF vehicle model. The result indicate that the fuzzy logic TCS improves vehicle's stability and steerability.

Radial Dual Mass Flywheel(RDMF) is designed to reduce torsional vibration and noise occurring in automotive powertrain. In this paper, finite element method is used to evaluate stress level and critical area of the torsional spring box, a major part of RDNF system. In finite element analysis, both static and dynamic loadings are considered and it is found that the most critical spot is the welded zone of spring box. Also, fatigue test is performed and fractured surfaces are examined to find fatigue stress level by experiment.
