2. Electromagnetic clutches and brakes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_clutches...

   Based upon the size of the clutch or brake, the speed and the inertia, wear rates will differ. For example, a machine that was running at 500 rpm with a clutch and is now sped up to 1000 rpm would have its wear rate significantly increased because the amount of energy required to start the same amount of inertia is a lot higher at the higher speed.

4. 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 ...

5. Double-clutching (technique) - Wikipedia

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

   Before the introduction of transmission synchronizers in 1927, [2] double clutching was a technique required to prevent damage to an automobile's gearing during shifts. Due to the difficulty and most often unnecessary redundancy involved in the technique, coupled with the advent of synchronized gearing systems, it has largely fallen into disuse in light vehicles.

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.

7. Electromagnetic clutch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_clutch

   The clutch slips until the input and output RPMs are matched. This happens relatively quickly typically (0.2 - 2 sec). When the current is removed from the clutch, the armature is free to turn with the shaft. Springs hold the friction disks away from each other, so there is no contact when the clutch is not engaged, creating a minimal amount of ...
