  2. 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 ...

  3. Double-clutching (technique) - Wikipedia

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

    Disengaging the clutch for each shift out of, and then into, each gear is double clutching or declutching. [4] Due to the absence of a neutral spacing, double-clutching is impossible for sequential gear changes, as with a fully sequential gearbox used in motorcycles and racecars. The double-clutching technique involves the following steps:

  4. 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.

  7. Non-synchronous transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-synchronous_transmission

    The clutch brake not only slows or stops the idle gear axis but can also prevent shifting into gear until the clutch pedal is released a few centimetres (or inches) off the floor. In order to shift into gear, the clutch must be halfway off the floor, otherwise, the clutch brake will prevent the transmission from being shifted into or out of gear.

  9. Shift time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_time

    The average manual car driver takes between 500 ms and 1 s to perform vertical gear changes (i.e. 1st-2nd, 3rd-4th, 5th-6th) and 1 - 2 s to perform horizontal gear changes (i.e. 2nd-3rd, 4th-5th). Shift time is also dependent on gear throws (distance between gears), ease of movement, ergonomics of the gear stick , and gearbox condition.
