Th uppr controllr can furthr b dividd into two parts according to th activation ordr: th sliding control bfor th spd synchronization and ngaging control aftr th spd synchronization. Th sliding control is aiming at th sliding friction aftr half-ngaging phas and also th cor of th launching control.

Dtrmining Mthod of Targt Shock Intnsity in th Launching Procss. Th launch targt shock intnsity not only rflcts th drivr s intntion, but also guarants that th intnsity is in a rasonabl xtnt. Th friction procss is dividd into thr parts in [19], which qualitativly laboratd control ky points whn a vhicl was launchd and its clutch driving and drivn plats wr synchronizing. In [2], th shock intnsity whil th clutch driving and drivn plats wr synchronizing is drivd, which showd that it is proportional to th diffrnc btwn ngin acclration and acclration of clutch drivn plat at th instant of prsynchronization. That is I ω c (+) ω c ( ) = [ ω I +I ( ) ca ω c ( )], (12) whr ω c ( ), ω c (+) dnot acclrations of clutch drivn plat at th instant of prsynchronization and post- synchronization. ω ( ) is ngin acclration at th instant of prsynchronization.

It is shown in Figur 5. Phas On. Duringthtimslot t p,thtargtshock intnsity j p is positiv. It changs along with th quivalnt acclration, which rflcts th drivr s intntion. As th particularity of crping launch,that is, th clutch driving and drivn plats should maintain slipping stat during th whol launching procss without considring thir spd synchronization. In viw of this, crping launch is out of considration in this papr. Thrfor, on th basis of quivalnt acclrator pdal opning and ngin output torqu capacity, drivr s intntion is dividd into thr catgoris [3, 6], which is shown in Tabl 2. Phas Two.

Th main goal is to lowr th vhicl acclration, so that th spd and acclration of clutch drivn plat stay th sam as th ngin s at th momnt of synchronizing in ordr to raliz no-impact synchronizing. Th valus ar synchronous targt spd and zro, rspctivly. Thortically, diffrnt valus ar slctd according to diffrnt targt shock intnsity in Phas On.

It is also provd that th statd sliding mod variabl structur dry DCT uppr controllr can mt th rquirmnt of ral-tim control basd on ral-tim optimization. 6. Chassis Dynamomtr Tst of Ral Car Equippd with Dry DCT Aftr rapid prototyping xprimnts, th indpndntly dvlopmntal fiv-spd dry DCT control unit is usd to rplac th MicroAutoBox141 rapid prototyp controllr. On th basis of simulation and bnch tst rsults, th corrsponding MAP of prototyp car quippd with dry DCT is rcalibratd. Aftr DCT softwar is dvlopd, th ral car chassis dynamomtr tst is conductd. Th tst photo is shown in Figur 13. Th rsults of launch tst can b sn in Figur 14. Th xprimnt rsults dmonstrat that on th basis of sliding mod variabl structur uppr coordinating control stratgy, th dvlopd dry DCT control softwar not only rflcts th launch riding comfort of vhicl, but also rflcts th variation of drivr s intntion. As can bn sn from Figur 14, undr th proposd launching stratgis, th vhicl is launchd within 2 s and th shock intnsity is blow 1 m/s 3. Bsids, whn th acclrator pdal opning is incrasing, th corrsponding shock intnsity is rlativly largr, which is consistnt with th control stratgis. Compard with th rapid prototyping tsts, th rsults obtaind in th chassis dynamomtr tst ar also consistnt, thus validating th ffctivnss of th proposd control stratgis. 7. Conclusion Th four-dof launch dynamics modl of fiv-spd dry DCT is stablishd. Aftr simplifying th modl, two-dof sliding friction modl and singl-dof in-gar opration modl ar obtaind, which provid a basis for th dsign and control

Taking advantag of th ida of prdictiv control and gntic algorithm, th tracing curvs of ngin spd and vhicl targt vlocity ar dtrmind by rolling optimization onlin. Th sliding mod variabl structur controllr (SMVS) is dsignd. Launch simulating modl is built on th MATLAB/Simulink softwar platform for th dry DCT. th launch rapid prototyping xprimnt is conductd. Simulation and xprimnt rsults show that th dsignd SMVS coordinating controllr can ffctivly rflct th drivr s intntion and improv th vhicl s launch prformanc.
