(Automotive Series) 1st Edition
by Yi Zhang (Author), Chris Mi (Author)
Provides technical details and developments for all automotive power transmission systems
The
transmission system of an automotive vehicle is the key to the dynamic
performance, drivability and comfort, and fuel economy. Modern advanced
transmission systems are the combination of mechanical, electrical and
electronic subsystems. The development of transmission products requires
the synergy of multi-disciplinary expertise in mechanical engineering,
electrical engineering, and electronic and software engineering.
Automotive Power Transmission Systems
comprehensively covers various types of power transmission systems of
ground vehicles, including conventional automobiles driven by internal
combustion engines, and electric and hybrid vehicles. The book covers
the technical aspects of design, analysis and control for manual
transmissions, automatic transmission, CVTs, dual clutch transmissions,
electric drives, and hybrid power systems. It not only presents the
technical details of key transmission components, but also covers the
system integration for dynamic analysis and control.
Key features:
- Covers conventional automobiles as well as electric and hybrid vehicles.
- Covers aspects of design, analysis and control.
- Includes the most recent developments in the field of automotive power transmission systems.
The book is essential reading for researchers and practitioners in automotive, mechanical and electrical engineering.
