Systems modeled include clutches, transmission, and pistons. The friction is continuous or hybrid continuous-locking type. Locking friction requires mode iteration and algebraic loops.

NOTE: If you receive MATLAB® command line warnings upon opening these models in a later version of Simulink, resave, close, and reopen the models in the later version.
