  • Abstract
    ´The main goal of the gear-clutch electronic control system is to improve the performance of the vehicle even in terms of passenger´s comfort. Based on the robot modelling technique, this paper proposes a head-neck model for the evaluation of the passenger´s head movements, especially during the gear shift operations. The proposed head-neck model has been validated comparing the simulation results with real experimental measurements.
