Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around identifying books and resources for understanding transmission systems, including their components, working principles, and types such as automatic and manual transmissions. The scope includes both theoretical and practical aspects of transmissions.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related, Exploratory

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests recommendations for textbooks on transmissions, mentioning difficulty in finding suitable resources.
  • Another participant suggests that there are many online resources available and asks what the original poster has found so far.
  • A third participant inquires about the specific types of transmissions being studied, such as automatic, standard manual, dual clutch, and no lift shift transmissions.
  • One participant mentions looking up information on Wikipedia and finding two books, while also expressing a need to articulate mechanisms and key elements used in transmissions.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree that there are resources available, but there is no consensus on specific recommended books or resources. Multiple viewpoints on the types of transmissions and their study remain present.

Contextual Notes

Participants have not specified the exact titles of the books they found, nor have they detailed the online resources they encountered. The discussion lacks clarity on the definitions and distinctions between different types of transmissions.

Who May Find This Useful

Students or individuals working on projects related to mechanical engineering, automotive engineering, or those interested in transmission systems and their components.

I have to do a project on transmissions,their parts and working principles,shafts used in them.I searched but can't find good textbook aiming them.I found only two books. can you give me the names of transmission books.

There are lots of online resources for this. What have you found so far online?
 
What type of transmissions? Automatic with fluid clutch? Standard manual transmission, maybe with dog gears to allow shifting without using clutch. Dual clutch transmissions. No lift shift transmissions.

I have just looked up at wikipedia and found two books.In general I have to articulate mechanisms, gears and other key elemenst used in them and their working principle. It could be automatic or manual transmissions.can you share links and book names?
