Abstract: The paper presents the first theory and practice of freeform conjugation modeling. It introduces the concept of masterslave that broadens the traditional computer aided single geometry modeling to dual geometry modeling. ...

Abstract: This paper addresses the fundamental issue on the conjugation for any gearing systems after tooth modification. It presents a rigorous theory on compensated conjugation for gear transmission error (TE) balance. The basic ...

Abstract: A novel method relying on atomic force microscope (AFM) tip based nanomachining is presented to enable the fabrication of microchannels that exhibit complex three-dimensional (3D) nanoscale floor surface geometries. To ...
