A shifting system for a human-powered vehicle comprises a controller. The controller is configured to receive a driving torque and a cadence of the human-powered vehicle from at least one sensor. The controller is configured to determine a permitted shift timing based on the driving torque and the cadence. The controller is further configured to control a shift mechanism to perform a gear shift during the permitted shift timing in accordance with a permitted cadence range and a first threshold of the driving torque.

An apparatus for controlling shifting of a vehicle and a method therefor are provided, where the apparatus includes a storage storing a power map in which a demand power corresponding to a vehicle speed and an accelerator position sensor (APS) value is recorded and storing an energy consumption map of a power source for each gear stage. The apparatus includes a controller that detects a current demand power based on the power map, generates a power graph representing the detected demand power as the number of revolution and a torque of the power source for each gear stage, and matches the generated power graph with the energy consumption map of the power source to control a shift to a gear stage which consumes minimum energy.

A control apparatus of a vehicle obtains information indicating a relationship between an instruction value to be provided to an actuator in accordance with a driving condition of a vehicle and a torque capacity of a clutch. The control apparatus includes a table holding unit that stores a correction table to be applied under a condition when an output torque from the engine is increasing and a correction table to be applied under a condition when an output torque from the engine is decreasing, a gear change condition determining unit that determines under which condition a gear change is executed, and a correction table update unit that updates the correction table to be applied under the determined condition based on the information indicating a relationship between a target value and an actual value of the torque capacity generated at the inertia phase.

A vehicle control device includes a processor and memory. The memory stores relation-defining data for defining a relation between a state of a vehicle and an action variable that is a variable relating to operations of a transmission installed in the vehicle. The processor is configured to execute acquisition processing, operation processing, reward calculation processing, updating processing, counting processing, and limiting processing. The processor is configured to output the relation-defining data updated so that an expected income is increased when the transmission is operated following the relation-defining data, based on an updating map.

A method to control a road vehicle for the execution of a multiple downshift in a drivetrain provided with a servo-assisted transmission; the control method comprises the steps of: detecting a condition of slowing down of the road vehicle and, simultaneously, detecting a driver's request for a multiple downshift; carrying out, in succession, a plurality of downshifts while the road vehicle is slowing down and in an autonomous manner regardless of further interventions of the driver; determining a duration of a shift time interval; and carrying out each downshift following a first downshift when said shift time interval has exactly elapsed since the previous downshift.

Provided is a gear change control device of automatic transmission for vehicles. The gear change control device of automatic transmission includes a gear change control part which performs upshift gear change control and downshift gear change control of an automatic transmission according to a shift map. When an operation of a brake operation element is detected and full closure of an accelerator is detected, the gear change control part calculates, based on a change amount of a vehicle speed and a pressure of a brake master cylinder, a determination counter value for determining whether or not to execute the downshift of the automatic transmission, and when the determination counter value is equal to or greater than a threshold value (first threshold value), the gear change control part performs the downshift of the automatic transmission.

A method of controlling a differential lock. The differential lock is actuated to lock a differential assembly when wheel slip of a first wheel assembly is detected and a duration of the wheel slip exceeds a pre-activation buffer. The pre-activation buffer is based on acceleration of the first wheel assembly and vehicle speed.

A control device with an electronic control unit that is configured to perform specific supply control, the specific supply control driving at least one of the rotating electrical machine and the internal combustion engine in a neutral state, and supplying hydraulic pressure to an engagement operating part of a target engagement device with at least one of the rotating electrical machine and the internal combustion engine being driven, the automatic transmission not transmitting power in the neutral state, and the target engagement device being one of the plurality of transmission engagement devices.
