ABSTRACT:
A fuzzy control method of a damper clutch and, more particularly, a fuzzy control method enhances engine brake effect by directly connecting a pump to a turbine by engaging the damper when a shift control unit identifies an engine brake state. The fuzzy control method of a damper clutch includes receiving or checking input signals relating to a damper clutch; controlling shift timing by a fuzzy control; determining if an engine brake should be used or not; checking an amount of driver's engine brake will if the engine brake should be used; determining if an emergency brake should be used or not; engaging the damper clutch when an emergency brake should be used; and controlling the damper clutch through a normal control when both the engine brake and emergency brake are not used.
