We propose algorithms for developing (1) a rigid (constrained) and (2) a exible planetary gearbox model. The two methods are compared against each other and advantages/disadvantages of each method are discussed. The rigid model (1) has gear tooth reaction forces expressed by Lagrange multipliers. The exible approach (2) is being compared with the gear tooth forces from the rigid approach, rst w...

This paper aims to find the key process parameters for machining different parts of an automobile gearbox, commissioned by a company that needs to replace with the MQL lubrication system their current machining process based on cutting fluids. It particularly focuses on the definition of appropriate cutting parameters for machining under the MQL condition through a statistical method of Design ...

This article proposes a method to optimize the design of a small fixed-voltage wind energy conversion system (WECS). The system is composed of commercially available elements which are: a small horizontal axe wind turbine, a onestage gearbox, a permanent magnet synchronous generator, a diode bridge and a battery bank. As there are no controlled devices on the system, the design must be carefull...

Gearbox fault diagnosis is vital to ensure the efficient operation of rotating machinery, and most gearbox faults in industrial production occur form compound faults. To realize gearboxes at different speeds, an “end-to-end” intelligent method based on channel attention capsule network (ECA-CN) proposed. First, process uses a deep convolutional neural extract features from collected raw vibrati...

many studies have been done on hybrid vehicles in the past few years. the full hybrid vehicles need a large number of batteries creating up to 300 (v) to meet the required voltage of electric motor. the size and weight of the batteries cause some problems. this research investigates the mild hybrid vehicle. this vehicle includes a small electric motor and a high power internal combustion engine...

Wind turbines have had various limitations to their mechanical system reliability owing to tribological problems over the past few decades. While several studies show that turbines are becoming more reliable, it is still not at an overall acceptable level to the operators based on their current business models. Data show that the electrical components are the most problematic; however, the part...

In cooperation with the major propulsion engine manufacturers, the authors are developing and demonstrating a unique very high frequency (VHF) vibration monitoring system that integrates various vibroacoustic data with intelligent feature extraction and fault isolation algorithms to effectively assess engine gearbox and generator health. The system is capable of reporting on the early detection...

Abstract Reducing the radiated noise of a gearbox is difficult problem in aviation, navigation, machinery, and other fields. Structural improvement main means reduction for gearbox, it realized primarily through contribution analysis structure optimization. However, these approaches have certain limitations. In this study, low-noise design method that combines two proposed, experimental verific...
