VERIFICATION OF A TRANSMISSION SYNCHRONIZATION MODEL

Other conference contribution, 2017

A computational model of the gearshifting mechanism may speed up the development of a new gearboxes. However, such model should be verified against other models as well as validated against experiments to ensure reasonable accuracy. In this contribution, results from the previous developed mathematical model of a generic synchronizer (gearshifting mechanism) against the model developed at Scania is presented. The mathematical model is based on constrained Lagrangian formalism (CLF) and the generic synchronizer is consist of engaging sleeve, synchronizer ring and the gearwheel with dimensions relevant to that of a heavy truck.
