Abstract: This paper describes an analytical investigation of the effects of misalignment and shaft speed on cylindrical roller bearing performance. Numerical results are presented for the contact load ...

Abstract: This paper presents an analytical study of the load distribution in a tapered roller bearing operating at a high speed and under combined loading. The friction forces at the rolling contacts ...

Abstract: Presented in this paper is an analytical investigation of the deformation characteristics at the outer equator and the change in diameter of the inner equator in simple upsetting of flat rings. ...

Abstract: A new velocity field for the forging of some cylindrical workpieces is presented taking into account the bulging of the free cylindrical surface during deformation. The velocity field is more ...

Abstract: The analysis of size effect on bending strength of rectangular wood beams based on Weibull’s theory of brittle failure has been expanded here to include tapered wood beams under arbitrary ...

Abstract: This paper presents a simple model for the stress concentration around a furrow shaped surface defect in rolling contact. An idealized two-dimensional defect profile, consisting of two curved ...

Abstract: This paper develops a general theory whereby the effects of the elastic distortions of a planet bearing outer ring due to gear loads and inertial forces on the bearing load distribution and ...

Abstract: This paper presents a general solution for a thin ring under a self-equilibrating loading system comprising any combination of radial, tangential, and moment loads. The formulations are applicable ...

Abstract: The paper proposes a method for the optimal synthesis of planar mechanisms, where a combination of cams and linkages is used in order to obtain a precise path generation. As a first step, ...
