Course Objectives		To give detailed information on power transmission systems in road vehicles, i.e. - Functions of the systems - Design methodology - Construction details
Course Description		Actual (general) information on the national and international automotive industry Road vehicle categories, standards, directives General information on vehicle sytems design, concepts and methods General information on the necessity for power transmission in vehicles Power transmission elements and functions Clutches Gearboxes Axle drive Shafts, joints All wheel drive systems Alternative propulsion systems
Course Outcomes		1. To give detailed information why power tranmission in road vehicles is needed. 2. To give a deep understanding how the power transmission must look like. 3. To give a summary of the function of each sub-component of powertrain systems. 4. To give a wide view of state-of-the-art power transmission techniques and systems. 5. To give the ability to calculate relationships to obtain main powertrain system parameters and characteristics. 6. To give detailed information on automatic control systems in power transmission systems to emphasize the basic need for new functionalities in new vehicles. 7. Alternative propulsion techniques like Hybrid- or Full electric vehicles are introduced.
