Friction clutches are used in motor vehicles to enable smooth engagement and release between the engine shaft and the driveline. A friction plate (clutch disc in Figure 1) is usually placed between the flywheel and the pressure plate(clutch cover...

This paper investigates the dynamic nature of clutch pedal in-cycle vibration as a

powertrain NVH concern. The concern, referred to as “whoop” in industry, occurs during the clutch

engagement and disengagement processes. The MATLAB...

of these materials as a torque control (viscous coupling) device for an artificial joint is presented. The output torque capacity of the clutch is controlled by applying the appropriate electric field. A PID controller is used to achieve the desire output torque...

In this paper clutch engagement strategy for a mild hybrid powertrain is investigated. The configuration has been developed based on the requirements of a 7.5 tonne delivery truck and includes a set of clutches to selectively link components...

(RRL) to analyze new repeated measures called clutch size (CS) as a meristic trait for Iranian native fowl. Legendre polynomial functions of increasing order 0 (no covariate) to 4 were fitted to the age at sexual maturity (ASM) and 1 to 10...
