2. Double-clutching (technique) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-clutching_(technique)

   Double clutching, although (slightly) time-consuming, ease gear selection when an extended delay or variance exists between engine and transmission speeds, and reduces wear on the synchronizers (or baulk rings), which are brass cone clutches themselves, and wear very slightly each time they are used to equalize the transmission revs with the ...

3. Dual-clutch transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-clutch_transmission

   A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) (sometimes referred to as a twin-clutch transmission) is a type of multi-speed vehicle transmission system, that uses two separate clutches for odd and even gear sets. [1] The design is often similar to two separate manual transmissions with their respective clutches contained within one housing, and working as ...

4. Semi-automatic transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-automatic_transmission

   A semi-automatic transmission is a multiple-speed transmission where part of its operation is automated (typically the actuation of the clutch), but the driver's input is still required to launch the vehicle from a standstill and to manually change gears.

5. Float shifting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Float_shifting

   Float shifting can reduce clutch wear because it is used so much less (only for starting from a standstill). Conversely, improper engagement of a gear (when the engine and transmission speeds aren't matched) can cause wear on the synchros and lockouts, and damage the gears by physically grinding them together due to a difference in speed.

6. Direct-shift gearbox - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-shift_gearbox

   A direct-shift gearbox (DSG, German: Direktschaltgetriebe [1]) [2] [3] is an electronically controlled, dual-clutch, [2] multiple-shaft, automatic gearbox, in either a transaxle or traditional transmission layout (depending on engine/drive configuration), with automated clutch operation, and with fully-automatic [2] or semi-manual gear selection.
