Comprehensive Methods for Motorcycle-Driveline Development
Task:
Prediction of dynamical driveline effects & creation of design specifications for components
- Driveline resonances
- Gear rattle
- Shift clonk
- Load alternation
- Hopping
- Clutch behaviour
Method:
- Experimental analysis of reference vehicle driveline
- Building up of simulation models for specific dynamic phenomena
- Calibration of models to reference vehicle
- Modification of parameters according new driveline design
- Virtual testing and evaluation of dynamical driveline effects, interaction of components
Benefit:
Prevention of expensive and time-consuming trial and error loops in the development process
