Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a technique for improving durability of a clutch and shifting stability. The present disclosure provides a method of controlling a clutch of an automated manual transmission (AMT) vehicle, which reduces a micro-slip control time in order to improve durability of the clutch by performing a full-lock control of the clutch after slip control for learning a clutch characteristic curve. Additionally, the method shortens time to open the clutch for a subsequent shifting by predicting the time when a shift restarts after the full-lock control and by resuming the micro-slip control.
