Description

The AMT Controller block implements an automated manual transmission (AMT) controller. You can specify the clutch open, close, and synchronization timing parameters. The block determines the clutch commands using integrator-based timers and latching logic that is based on the specified timing parameters and gear request.

Examples

Build Conventional Vehicle Model

Build a vehicle with an internal combustion engine using the conventional vehicle reference application.

Ports

Inputs

GearReq — Gear number to engage

scalar

Gear number request, G_req.

Output

Info — Bus signal

bus

Bus signal containing these block calculations.

Signal	Description	Variable
GearReq	Gear number request	Greq
GearEngd	Nominal gear commanded by the controller	Go
Cltch	Clutch pressure command for gears, between 0 and 1	NA

GearEffct — Effective gear for shifting

scalar

Effective gear for shifting. The block uses this signal for the smooth application of inertial, efficiency, gear ratio, and damping parameters.

Cltch — Command for clutch pressure

scalar

Clutch pressure command, between 0 and 1.

Parameters

Initial gear, G_o — Engaged gear

0 (default) | scalar

Initial gear to engage, G_o.

Clutch actuation time, tc — Time

.1 (default) | scalar

Time required to engage and disengage the clutch during shift events, t_c, in s.

Synchronizer time, ts — Time

.01 (default) | scalar

Time required for gear selection and synchronization, t_s, in s.

Sample period, dt — Time

-1 (default) | scalar

Sample period, dt, in s.

Start simulation with clutch locked — Select to initially lock clutch

off (default) | on

Selecting this parameter initially locks the clutch.

Start simulation with synchronizer locked — Select to initially lock synchronizer

off (default) | on

Selecting this parameter initially locks the synchronizer.
