Abstract

Modern automotive drivelines are facing increasing pressure to improve overall efficiency while maintaining vehicle comfort and performance. This thesis presents several new ways to control the torque converter clutch in an automotive automatic transmission in such a way they improve driveline system efficiency while maintaining its comfort. This efficiency improvement is accomplished by extending the clutch’s application conditions to a lower speed where the environment is harsher than is possible with the current class of controllers.
