A shift control apparatus for a vehicle automatic transmission to be provided in a vehicle that includes a hydraulic transmission device having a lockup clutch, an engine, an input shaft connected to the engine through the hydraulic transmission device, and drive wheels. The shift control apparatus includes a shift-down control portion configured, when a shift-down operation is executed to establish a first gear position by releasing a second engagement device, during running of the vehicle in a driven state with a second gear position being established with engagement of the second engagement device, to increase a torque of the engine so as to increase an input rotational speed as a rotational speed of the input shaft through the lockup clutch that is placed in an engaged state, and to release the lockup clutch before the input rotational speed reaches a synchronous speed of the first gear position.

A method for operating a transmission (3) that includes at least one form-locking shift element (A, F) with two shift-element halves is provided. The shift element (A, F) is disengaged in a first end position and is engaged in a second end position of a displaceable shift-element half. Upon detection of a sensor malfunction, a check is carried out to determine whether the shift-element half, before the malfunction of the sensor, was in an end position as demanded and was actuated by an actuation force acting in the direction of this end position. Power flow in the transmission (3) is maintained for as long as it takes for the shift-element half, starting from the current end position, to be actuated in the direction of the other end position and/or for the actuation force acting in the direction of the current end position to be less than a threshold value.

An aircraft includes a variable-speed gearbox. The variable-speed gearbox includes a low-speed gear train and a high-speed gear train, each gear train of which is configured to selectively provide torque from an engine of the aircraft to a proprotor. The variable-speed gearbox also includes a hydraulic system configured to provide torque to the proprotor. The hydraulic system includes a hydraulic pump driven by the engine of the tiltrotor aircraft and a variable-displacement motor driven by a hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic pump.

In a hydraulic control device switchable between a first state in which a first oil is supplied from a first pump to a hydraulic operation part via a bypass valve and a second state in which the first oil supplied from the first pump is pressurized by using the second pump and the pressurized first oil is supplied, as a second oil, to the hydraulic operation part, control that adds a correction hydraulic pressure of a predetermined amount to the hydraulic pressure of the oil discharged from a valve for adjusting the pressure of the oil supplied to the hydraulic operation part is performed when the second state is switched to the first state due to a stop or a low rotation state of the second pump.

A shift range control device switches a shift range by controlling driving of an actuator. A plurality of control units are configured to control the driving of the actuator. A plurality of monitoring control units are correspondingly provided for the plurality of control units, and configured to monitor the corresponding control units. The driving of the actuator is controlled by one of the control units, which is in a normal state. When an abnormality occurs in the one of the control units being used to control the driving of the actuator, the one is switched to another one of the control units to control the driving of the actuator.
