Automated Manual Transmissions (AMTs) systems are generally constituted by a dry or wet clutch assembly and a multi-speed gearbox, both equipped with electro-mechanical or electro-hydraulic actuators, which are driven by a control unit, the transmission control unit (TCU). In this transmission type the quality of the vehicle propulsion as perceived by the driver is largely dependent on the qual...

In this paper, we present a new design methodology for automotive applications, combining the strength of model-based design using MATLAB/Simulink and virtual prototyping using SystemC. The design flow starts from an automotive application modeled in MATLAB/Simulink. By including a vehicle model, testing and debugging of the desired application is possible. In a first step, the application mode...

this experiment was carried out at agricultural research station of gorgan during summer 2006 to study the effects of corn and green gram intercropping on forage yield, and weed biomass. the experimental design was rcbd with twelve treatments and four replications. a local green gram and corn single cross 550 were the crops employed. the experimental treatments consisted of sole corn and sole g...
