Abstract: Fully flexible valve actuation (FFVA) system, often referred to as camless valvetrain, employs electronically controlled actuators in place of the camshaft to drive the intake or exhaust valves ...

Abstract: This paper provides a novel method of constructing an internal model-based design of reference tracking and/or disturbance rejection for a class of linear time-varying plants with a known linear ...

Abstract: This paper presents a discrete-time adaptive controller, which incorporates internal model principle for asymptotic tracking performance of systems with parametric uncertainties, unmodeled dynamics ...

Abstract: This paper presents a frequency domain learning control scheme for a class of nonlinear systems and its application to the process feedback control of the noncircular turning process for camshaft ...

Abstract: This paper presents the design, modeling, and motion control of the noncircular turning process for camshaft machining. The cam profile tracking performance requirements are first characterized ...

Abstract: Clutch to clutch shift control technology, which is the key enabler for a compact and low cost transmission design, is important for both automatic and hybrid transmissions. To ensure a smooth ...

Abstract: Clutch shift control is critical for the performance and fuel economy of automotive transmissions, including both automatic and hybrid transmissions. Among all the factors that influence clutch ...
