A control method for controlling a transmission of a vehicle, the method comprising: receiving at least one measurement relating to a hydraulic lag of a continuously variable valve lift system that occurs in a cold condition, the continuously variable valve lift system being associated with an engine of the vehicle; determining, based on the at least one measurement relating to the hydraulic lag, an engine speed threshold above which engine power output is impaired as a result of the hydraulic lag; monitoring the engine speed; and generating an alert if the engine speed exceeds the engine speed threshold.

One or more powertrains can include a motor-generator disposed therein that is electrically coupled to an energy storage device through an inverter gate. A regulation strategy can monitor operation of the powertrain to regulate the inverter gate to selectively discharge energy from the energy storage device to the motor-generator to assist the powertrain or to charge energy from the motor-generator to the energy storage device for future use. In an aspect, the regulation strategy may maintain a consistent speed of an internal combustion engine associated with the powertrain. In another aspect, the regulation strategy may regulate simultaneous operation of first and second powertrains disposed a parallel relation.

At a time of HV traveling entailing a load operation of an engine in a CD mode, an electronic control unit sets a required torque Tr* by using a map for a CS mode, in which the required torque Tr* is set to be lower than in a map for the CD mode, as at a time of the CS mode. Then, the electronic control unit control the engine and a motor for traveling in accordance with the required torque Tr*. Accordingly, a rise in the required torque Tr* can be suppressed compared to setting of the required torque Tr* using the map for the CD mode and a sense of high-rpm idling attributable to a rise in a rotation speed of the engine can be inhibited from being felt by a driver.

A method of thermal management for an electrically motorized wheel, the method can include defining a thermally conductive path from at least one component, the at least one component becoming heated during operation of the electrically motorized wheel, providing the path with a thermally conductive material and further defining the path such that the path contacts the at least one component, further defining the path such that the path contacts a hub shell assembly of the electrically motorized wheel thereby conducting heat from the at least one component to the hub shell assembly.

A clutch control system for a work vehicle includes a controller comprising a memory and a processor. The controller is configured to receive a first signal indicative of an inching pedal position and to determine a commanded inching torque based on the inching pedal position. The controller is configured to instruct an inching clutch to achieve the commanded inching torque while the commanded inching torque is less than a threshold inching torque. The controller is configured to instruct the inching clutch to achieve the threshold inching torque while the commanded inching torque is equal to or greater than the threshold inching torque. Herein the threshold inching torque is calculated based at least in part on a gear ratio established by engaging one or more clutches between an engine of the work vehicle and the inching clutch.
