description The control of the vehicle transmission system is of great significance to driving comfort. In order to design a controller for smooth shifting and comfortable driving, a dynamic model of dual-clutch transmission is established in this paper. An optimal control strategy for clutch oil pressure based on linear quadratics is proposed, which is used to optimally control the oil pressure of two clutches in the torque stage and inertia stage. The control strategy selects the slipping work and jerk as evaluation indices of shift quality and establishes an optimization objective function. On the premise of optimizing the input torque, the relative speed difference between the engine and the sliding clutch in the inertia stage is adjusted. Through the optimal trajectory control of the wet clutch oil pressure, slipping work and jerk are reduced, thereby improving driving comfort. The simulation results show that the slipping work and jerk generated by the system during the shift stage are reduced, and the shift quality is improved. Additionally, compared with the controller using the MATLAB particle swarm optimization algorithm, the response speed of the proposed controller is faster, the slipping work and jerk are better reduced, and the shift quality is improved.
