In automotive industries, one of major issues is the shifting shock, which is brought out when two clutches are engaged in an automatic transmission. The engagement and disengagement if two clutches means the variation of the D.O.F(degree of freedom) of system. Therefore to analyze the shifting performance, the variation of D.O.F should be considered in detail. Generally, the programs for analyzing the shifting transients have been developed as the problem-dependent codes because the artificial maris were usually used to indicate the change of shifting phase. To develop a software applicable to a general mechanism of transmissions, a self-determining algorithm of D.O.F must be applied. Through the experiences for the last several years, a generalized analysis software of shifting mechanism(so called by POTAS-MSM Version 2.0) has been developed. In this study, some major ideas of the software and the concept for the analysis of shifting characteristics are presented. In addition to that, this paper shows how to self -determine D.O.F of he multi-slipping systems using the stick-slip criterion on a single slipping mechanism. By using this software, the shifting characteristics of a vehicle are analyzed and compared with the experimental results.

This paper presents the main method to analyze the dynamic characteristics of power transmission system using the multi-body dynamics, which is based on the concept of subsystem equation, subsystem assembling, and the self-determination technique for the system degree of freedom. We can model the mechanical components of power transmission system easily with the advantage of multi-body dynamics. Based on the theory, a dynamic simulation program was developed to analyze system performances, transient phenomena, and other dynamic problems. The driving performance of automatic transmission was simulated with using the multi-body dynamics and Newtonian method, and the validity of program was proved by comparing the two kinds of result.

This paper presents an effective method to analyze the dynamic characteristics for the shilling transients of power transmission system using the multibody dynamics, which is composed of subsystem equation, subsystem assemble, and the self-determining technique for the system degree of freedom. Using the advantages of multibody dynamics, the proposed method can be used easily for mathematical models of mechanical systems, such as a power transmission, compared with newtonian method. With this theory, dynamic simulation program was developed. The program can be used to verify system performances, transient phenomena, and other dynamic problems. The simulation of a target system was presented, and its validity was attained by being compared with the previous analysis using newtonian method.
