In this paper, a complete model of an electro hydraulic driven dry clutch along with its
performance evaluation has elucidated. Through precision modeling, a complete nonlinear
physical and full order sketch of clutch has drawn. Ultimate nonlinearities existent in the
system prohibits it from being controlled by conventional linear control algorithms and to
compensate the behavior of the system mainly during gearshift procedure, a nonlinear control
program has been developed and tested. A unique approach to estimating clamp force has been
adopted which makes the system comparable to a real world and full-physical one. Based on
this type of modeling, the control approach is a true and feasible, ready-to-implement program
which is based only on reality. The clutch model has been validated against experiments and
great agreement has been attained since, every fine point has been taken into account and
nothing is out of representation unless it is not crucial to system performance. The nonlinear
control program does the control task very well and administrates the system in the desired
trajectory.
