- MR. KELLEY discusses the application of the automatic transmission to passenger cars, buses, cross-country military vehicles, off-the-highway equipment, and trucks, placing particular emphasis on the development of satisfactory units for the truck field.Today, he says, there is a strongly crystallized trend among engineers toward the use of only two engineering principles for handling the variable drive ratios in automatic transmissions. These are the Hydra-matic and the hydrodynamic principles.
