A two-level Iterative Learning Control scheme for the engagement of wet clutches

چکیده
This paper discusses the application of Iterative Learning Control (ILC) algorithms for the engagement of wet clutches. A two-level control scheme is presented, consisting of a high level ILC-type algorithmwhich iteratively updates parameterized reference trajectories which are tracked by the low level tracking control. At this low level, two standard ILC controllers are used to first track a pressure reference in the filling phase and afterwards a slip reference in the slip phase of the clutch engagement. The performance and robustness of the presented approach are validated on an experimental test setup. It is shown that both levels are crucial to achieve good engagement quality during normal machine operation. Through the use of this ILC control scheme, it is possible to avoid time-consuming and cumbersome experimental (re)calibrations, which are nowadays used to achieve and maintain good performance despite the complex and time-varying dynamics of wet clutches. 2011 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved.

Iterative Learning Control for the filling of wet clutches
This paper discusses the development of an advanced Iterative Learning Control (ILC) scheme for the filling of wet clutches. In the presented scheme, the appropriate actuator signal for a new clutch engagement is learned automatically based on the quality of previous engagements, such that time-consuming and cumbersome calibrations can be avoided. First, an ILC controller, which uses the positi...
متن کاملA two-level optimization based learning control strategy for wet clutches
This paper proposes a two-level control strategy for wet clutches. On the low level, the control signal is calculated by solving a constrained optimal control problem. On the high level, the measured responses are used to update the system models and constraints that are used in the optimization for the next control signal. In this way a learning algorithm is obtained, which is able to optimize...
متن کاملExperimental validation of iterative learning control for power shifts on a transmission with wet clutches in a heavy duty forklift
Transmissions with wet clutches exhibit a complex nonlinear dynamic behaviour. Furthermore, due to wear of the friction plates and variable oil characteristics, this behaviour evolves over time. Currently industrially applied control strategies often consist of parametric feedforward signals which require regular time consuming calibrations. The proposed Iterative Learning Control based strateg...
متن کاملPerfect Tracking of Supercavitating Non-minimum Phase Vehicles Using a New Robust and Adaptive Parameter-optimal Iterative Learning Control
In this manuscript, a new method is proposed to provide a perfect tracking of the supercavitation system based on a new two-state model. The tracking of the pitch rate and angle of attack for fin and cavitator input is of the aim. The pitch rate of the supercavitation with respect to fin angle is found as a non-minimum phase behavior. This effect reduces the speed of command pitch rate. Control...
