Competition for the Transmission of the Future Symposium


September 8-9, 2009
The Inn at Saint John's
Northville, Michigan, USA

Due to the economic climate and high number of uncertainties in the marketplace, a business decision was made to cancel the SAE 2009 Competition for the Transmission of the Future Symposium.

Thank you for your interest in participating in this SAE International Symposium. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding of our decision. Your participation in future events will be appreciated.

Finding ways of reducing emissions, improving fuel economy, and enhancing vehicle performance continue to be at the top of the list for today�s automotive manufacturers. With all of the attention paid to engine technologies in the past, it is now time to expand the focus to other segments, specifically transmissions. With these increasingly complex systems, the time is right to provide the engineering community with a platform to highlight and discuss new technologies and emphasize distinct development approaches. Presentations from leading experts will highlight new transmissions, powertrain hybridization, challenges of torque vectoring and methods to further reduce friction and spin losses. Accordingly, sessions will address advanced transmission systems, new materials and fluids, overall system optimization, including cost reduction and the role of controls.
