Position Control of Pneumatic Clutch of AMT Trucks

Article Preview

Abstract:

Logical control method is used for the position control of pneumatic clutch actuator of Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) trucks. The control input is the PWM duty ratio of 4 pneumatic valves, and the feedback signals are tracking displacement and velocity. By building the clutch model using software AMESim and then combined with MATLAB/Simulink through co-simulation, the control logic is calibrated. Finally, the well-tuned control law is used for experimental tests. Through the engagement and disengagement control under different conditions, the feasibility of the actuator control strategy is verified.
