Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the clutch and gear lever confuse you? This superb book / eBook explains the clutch and gears (stick shift) in detail could solve all your ‘control’ problems! And all for less than half the price of a single driving lesson! Driving consists of 2 main elements: a) Control - the ability to put the vehicle where you want it, & b) Road Procedure - knowing where to put it + use of mirrors/observations and other theoretical knowledge. Obviously both elements are equally important but most driving books concentrate on ‘road procedure’ with very little consideration on ‘control’. Certainly in order to become adequate at control it has to be practiced – this can’t be denied. But a good clear understanding of the controls in particularly the clutch and gears will speed up the learning process considerably. This book deals only with control and as such is applicable to every country worldwide! Items covered in detail are: • How the clutch works (with diagrams) and how to use it correctly; • Moving Off, Stopping and Clutch Control (on all gradients); • The gears (stick shift) explained in detail; • When, why and how to change gear in all circumstances; • Changing from 2nd – 1st Uphill to gain Clutch Control at junctions etc; • Plus more. So how do I know so much? I qualified as an ADI in 1973 and started my own school in Sheffield, which I built up from one car to one of the largest, most respected and most profitable schools on South Yorkshire. During this period I also achieved grade 6 status (highest) as an instructor. I was also the initiator and proprietor of ADI Services (driving school suppliers). After just over 30 years in the driving school business, I sold the school which is still running very successfully. I am now semi retired and no longer give personal tuition. I am 100% confidant that the information and techniques in my guides will help any learner driver considerably as they have done to countless personal pupils of mine of the last 30 odd years.

Download or read book Dynamic Analysis and Control System Design of Automatic Transmissions written by Joel M Maguire and published by SAE International. This book was released on 2013-02-12 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the basic working principle and the mechanical construction of automatic transmissions has not changed significantly, increased requirements for performance, fuel economy, and drivability, as well as the increasing number of gears has made it more challenging to design the systems that control modern automatic transmissions. New types of transmissions—continuously variable transmissions (CVT), dual clutch transmissions (DCT), and hybrid powertrains—have presented added challenges. Gear shifting in today’s automatic transmissions is a dynamic process that involves synchronized torque transfer from one clutch to another, smooth engine speed change, engine torque management, and minimization of output torque disturbance. Dynamic analysis helps to understand gear shifting mechanics and supports creation of the best design for gear shift control systems in passenger cars, trucks, buses, and commercial vehicles. Based on the authors’ graduate-level teaching material, this well-illustrated book relays how the fundamental principles of hydraulics and control systems are applied to today’s automatic transmissions. It opens with coverage of basic automatic transmission mechanics and then details dynamics and controls associated with modern automatic transmissions. Topics covered include: gear shifting mechanics and controls, dynamic models of planetary automatic transmissions, design of hydraulic control systems, learning algorithms for achieving consistent shift quality, torque converter clutch controls, centrifugal pendulum vibration absorbers, friction launch controls, shift scheduling and integrated powertrain controls, continuously variable transmission ratio controls, dual-clutch transmission controls, and more. The book includes many equations and clearly explained examples. Sample Simulink models of various transmission mechanical, hydraulic and control subsystems are also provided. Chapter Two, which covers planetary gear automatic transmissions, includes homework questions, making it ideal for classroom use. In addition to students, new engineers will find the book helpful because it provides the basics of transmission dynamics and control. More experienced engineers will appreciate the theoretical discussions that will help elevate the reader’s knowledge. Although many automatic transmission-related books have been published, most focus on mechanical construction, operation principles, and control hardware. None tie the dynamic analysis, control system design, and analytic investigation of the mechanical, hydraulic, and electronic controls as does this book.
Download or read book Cost Effectiveness and Deployment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light Duty Vehicles written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 812 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The light-duty vehicle fleet is expected to undergo substantial technological changes over the next several decades. New powertrain designs, alternative fuels, advanced materials and significant changes to the vehicle body are being driven by increasingly stringent fuel economy and greenhouse gas emission standards. By the end of the next decade, cars and light-duty trucks will be more fuel efficient, weigh less, emit less air pollutants, have more safety features, and will be more expensive to purchase relative to current vehicles. Though the gasoline-powered spark ignition engine will continue to be the dominant powertrain configuration even through 2030, such vehicles will be equipped with advanced technologies, materials, electronics and controls, and aerodynamics. And by 2030, the deployment of alternative methods to propel and fuel vehicles and alternative modes of transportation, including autonomous vehicles, will be well underway. What are these new technologies - how will they work, and will some technologies be more effective than others? Written to inform The United States Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission standards, this new report from the National Research Council is a technical evaluation of costs, benefits, and implementation issues of fuel reduction technologies for next-generation light-duty vehicles. Cost, Effectiveness, and Deployment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light-Duty Vehicles estimates the cost, potential efficiency improvements, and barriers to commercial deployment of technologies that might be employed from 2020 to 2030. This report describes these promising technologies and makes recommendations for their inclusion on the list of technologies applicable for the 2017-2025 CAFE standards.
