- GM Invests In Michigan Transmissions Plant

YPSILANTI, MI - MAY 30: Kevin Larsen of Brownstown, Michigan,
works on new transmissions in the Button Up section of the General
Motors Powertrain Ypsilanti Transmission Operations facility
May 30, 2006 in Ypsilanti, Michigan. GM will invest $125 million
in the facility for additional capacity to produce a family
of Hydra-Matic six-speed rear and all-wheel drive automatic
transmissions, and will invest an additional $45 million for
vendor tooling, containers, and other locations necessary to
support the expanded Ypsilanti operations.

- Chrysler Recalls Over 500,000 Vehicles

SKOKIE, IL - OCTOBER 10: The automatic gear shift lever of a
2005 Jeep Liberty is seen in the showroom at Walton Chrysler
October 10, 2005 in Skokie, Illinois. Chrysler is recalling
about 500,000 vehicles, including the 2005 Jeep Liberty and
other models, due to potential problems when shifting them into
"park."

- 1939 Dodge

After 1934 Dodge cars were equipped with overdrive transmissions
and independent front suspensions among other features. An automatic
clutch could also be ordered by drivers who wanted greater ease
in shifting gears.

Associate Professor, Mechanical Systems, University of Cincinnati teik.lim@uc.edu An active internal gearbox structure is developed and evaluated experimentally to suppress gear pair vibration due to transmission error excitation. The approach is based on an active shaft transverse vibration control concept that was theoretically analyzed in an earlier study and determined . . . to reduce gear vibration and noise and thereby improve transmission quality. The prediction of gear... that the acoustic noise generated by a pair of gears is strongly related to the gears transmission error

The formulation is capable of analyzing any typical one-degree-of-freedom automatic transmission gear train containing any number of simple, compound or complex... torque values. A five-speed transmission example is considered to highlight the capabilities . . . Effect of flexibility of an internal gear on the quasi-static behavior of a planetary gear set is investigated. A state-of-the-art finite elements/semi-analytical nonlinear contact mechanics formulation is employed to model a typical automotive automatic transmission planetary unit
