Abstract: In this paper, influences of tooth indexing errors on load distribution and tooth load sharing of spline joints are investigated by modifying an existing semianalytical load distribution model for sidefit involute splines. ...

Abstract: Due to the lack of knowledge in terms of their flexibility and deformation, spline joints are typically assumed to be rigid in dynamic models of gearboxes, transmissions, and drivetrains. As various dynamic phenomena are ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the influences of tooth indexing errors on dynamic factors of spur gears. An experimental study is performed using root strain measurements to (i) establish baseline dynamic behavior of gears having ...

Abstract: A modeling methodology is proposed to predict loaddependent (mechanical) power loss of cylindrical roller bearings under combined radial and moment loading with focus on planetary gear set planet bearings. This methodology ...

Abstract: A load distribution model of planetary gear sets presented is capable of simulating planetary gear sets having component- and system-level design variations such as component supporting conditions, different kinds of gear ...

Abstract: In this study, a non-Newtonian, transient, isothermal, mixed elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) model is proposed for helical gear contacts. The model accounts for nonelliptical contacts subject to spatially varying ...

Abstract: In this study, load-independent (spin) power losses of a gearbox operating under dip-lubrication conditions are investigated experimentally using a final-drive helical gear pair from an automotive transmission as the example ...

Abstract: This paper presents a set of motion transmission error data for a family of helical gears having different profile and lead modifications operated under both low-speed (quasi-static) and dynamic conditions. A power circulatory ...
