Abstract: The unique design feature of the Beier traction variator is that it can provide a higher power capacity per unit volume by using multiple thin disk pairs in a planetary system. Operating ...

Abstract: Rolling contact continuously variable transmissions (C.V.T.) transmit forces through a highly viscous spot between rolling-slipping contacts. The mechanics of the spot are characterized by complex ...

Abstract: Reduced computing costs and continued development of computational methods of heat transfer make it possible to simulate complicated heat sealing processes on a computer. Such a simulation is ...
