Abstract: Epicyclic gears, also commonly referred to as planetary gears, are power transfer components that are commonly used in several industrial applications. The structural compliance of thin-rimmed annular ring gear can ...

Abstract: The structural compliance of annular ring gear can significantly influence the quasi-static and dynamic performance of an epicyclic gear set. As powertrain components are continually being optimized to their design limits, ...

Abstract: This study presents a unique experimental methodology that synchronously measures various quasi-static responses of a simple four-planet planetary gear set, namely, planet load sharing, overall transmission error (OTE), ...
