In certain vehicle applications, automated manuals or dual-clutch transmissions may be the best transmission for optimal vehicle performance. This course covers the basic theory and operation of automated manual and dual-clutch transmissions along with their technical, operational and financial benefits as compared to conventional manual or automatic transmissions. Current designs, the components and sub-systems used, their functional modes, how they operate, and the inter-relationshipwith the rest of the powertrain are addressed in detail.
