Abstract
A method of parameterization of traction force interrupted shifts in a transmission of a commercial vehicle having a frame, a cab supported by the frame, and a trailer coupled to the frame. The method includes a mathematical model which considers movement equations and geometrical parameters of the frame, the cab, and the trailer. Traction force patterns of traction force interrupted shifts are predetermined which depend on a traction force decrease time, a shift time, and a traction force increase time. From model and force patterns, vibration behaviors of the cab as the output parameter of the model is simulated. The parameterization of traction force interrupted shiftings takes place such that, as the shifting parameters, the traction force decrease time, the shift time, and the traction force increase time of such force patterns are determined, for which a defined evaluation criterion of the simulated vibration behavior of the cab is optimal.
