In this research, a new hybrid neural network is developed to model engagement behaviors of automotive transmission wet friction component. Utilizing known first principles on the physics of engagement, special modules are created to estimate viscous torque and asperity contact torque as preprocessors to a two-layer neural network. Inside these modules, all the physical parameters are represented by neurons with various activation functions derived from first principles. These new features contribute to the improved performance and trainability over a conventional two-layer network model. Both the hybrid and conventional neural net models are trained and tested with experimental data collected from an SAE#2 test stand. The results show that the performance of the hybrid model is much superior to that of the conventional model. It successfully captures detailed characteristics of the friction component engagement torque as a function of time over a wide operating range.

In recent years, neural networks have attracted much attention for their potential to address a number of difficult problems in modelling and controlling nonlinear dynamic systems, especially in (bio) chemical engineering. The objective of this paper is to review some of the most widely used approaches to neural-network-based modelling, including plain black box as well as hybrid neural network — first principles modelling. Two specific application examples are used for illustration purposes: a simple tank level-control system is studied in simulation while a challenging bioprocess application is investigated based on experimental data. These applications allow some original concepts and techniques to be introduced.
