This paper identifies the class of actuators called clutched elastic actuators (CEAs). CEAs use clutches to control the energy flow into springs. CEAs in exoskeletons, prostheses, legged robots, and robotic arms have shown the ability to reduce the energy consumption and motor requirements, such as peak torque and peak power. Because of those abilities,

Clutch-to-Clutch Transmission Control Strategy
SAE Technical Paper Series, 2007<div class="htmlview paragraph">An automatic transmission control system for clutch-to-clutch shifting systems has been developed. This enables the new General Motors Powertrain families of rear- and front-wheel drive transmissions to meet stringent cost, mass, and packaging reqiurements, while providing driveability and fuel economy improvements

Literature on the breeding biology of the StarlingSturnus vulgaris refers to a sequence of egg-layings usually termed as first, intermediate and second broods. Egg-laying of first broods is highly synchronous. Accurate data concerning the identity of pairs producing the intermediate clutches, i.e.

Clutch is the title of the creative portion of my thesis as well as the name of my theory 'clutch' which I outline in the preface section. The purpose of the clutch theory is to recognize modes of inspiration in the body, heart and mind so that the poet can consciously move beyond passive receptivity to engage inspiration more fully.

Clutch actuator is a mechatronic system that is aimed to provide effective control of a variable that directly influences the clutch torque. The influencing variable is usually the clutch contact surface normal force, whereas in some specific cases of clutches without axial movement, this can be a nonmechanical variable such as the magnetic flux ...

Clutch Damper for Reducing Clutch Pedal Vibrations
Clutch pedal vibrations in manual transmissions affect driver comfort and control. This study investigates the use of a Clutch Release Line Damper to reduce pedal pulsation without compromising clutch system efficiency. The damper controls hydraulic fluid flow between the master and slave cylinders, absorbing vibrations through volume expansion and ...Mr.Sandesh Kshirsagar +3 more

Abstract This chapter considers clutch size, one of the most obvious and easily measured components of fitness. We determine the selection gradient on this univariate phenotypic trait (Arnold and Wade 1984b), and consider its ecological and evolutionary constraints and consequences.

Clutch size is generally considered to be one of the most important determinants of reproductive success and lifetime fitness in birds. It is also perhaps the most well-studied life-history trait in birds, though many reviews have focused on interspecific variation.
