Wet clutches operating under low velocity and high load are studied with the aim of
obtaining reliable models for the torque transfer during boundary lubrication conditions. A …

This work presents a comprehensive formulation of the equations governing the lubrication
and the lock-up phases of an engaging wet clutch. A finite element model is established …

This paper presents a survey of the recent research results of the authors in the field of
modeling of automotive power train systems and components. The goal of the research is to …

The purpose of this study is to determine the influencing factors and changing laws of the
friction behavior of a wet clutch under actual working conditions. A qualitative analysis is …

The torque model of a wet multi-disc clutch is developed to study the effect of operating
conditions on its tribological behavior during the running-in process, which is verified by …

A model is developed to investigate the effect of radial grooves and waffle-shape grooves on
the performance of a wet clutch. Three-dimensional formulation of the governing equations …

A detailed experimental validation has been carried out to point to limitations of static wet-
clutch friction model for typical clutch engagement transients. The model accuracy can be …

The simplified isothermal model for wet clutch engagement previously developed by Berger,
Sadeghi, and Krousgrill (Berger, EJ, Sadeghi, F., and Krousgrill, CM, 1996,“Analytical and …

The temperature plays a significant role in the tribology properties and failure of friction
materials during engagement of wet clutch. In order to obtain the temperature field of carbon …

The approximate torque response model for the engagement of a wet friction clutch,
developed by Berger [1, 2], was modified and enhanced. The modified Reynolds equation …
