DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION CONTROL METHOD, DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION, AND VEHICLE MOUNTED THEREWITH

Provided is a method of a dual clutch transmission, a dual clutch transmission, and a vehicle equipped with the same which can reduce the load on a clutch on a start gear side to reduce the wear thereof and therefore make the clutch replacement interval longer. There are a first input shaft 11 configured to be connected to a first clutch C1 and a second input shaft 12 configured to be connected to a second clutch C2. A set of odd-numbered gears G1, G3, and G5 and a set of even-numbered gears G2, G4, and G6 are arranged respectively across the first input shaft and second input shaft 11 and 12 and an output shaft 3. When a vehicle starts, an absorbed energy Eabs by the second clutch C2 is calculated while a start gear DG2 is partially connected to the second input shaft 12. The first clutch C1 is partially connected (half clutch state) to the first input shaft 11, to which a support gear SG3 is synchronously engaged, when the absorbed energy Eabs exceeds a set value Elim which is a predetermined threshold, the support gear SG3 having a gear ratio greater than that of the start gear DG2 by one speed or higher.
