the objective of this research is geometrical optimization of half toroidal continuously variable transmission (cvt) in order to achieve high power transmission efficiency and low weight. after dynamic analysis of the system, the contact between the disk and the roller is modeled according to elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication principles. accordingly, a computer model is created with geometric, th...

BACKGROUND:Modern agricultural activity requires the use of hightech equipment such as, in particular, a multifunctional tractor, which, according to actual trends, should be an autonomously controlled mobile power plant. In modern tractors, meeting current requirements, multiflow shaft-planetary gearboxes with cumulative effect are used.
 AIMS:Comparison operation principles two types aut...

This paper presents an optimization framework to design the components and controller of a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) in integrated manner. Specifically, we aim at reducing mass transmission leakage losses that occur system. To do so, first formulate joint plant control problem including corresponding objectives constraints. Thereafter, propose proportional integral structure for ...

This paper aims to find the efficient state of hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) by simultaneous optimization of the control strategy and the power train. The power transmission employed in this vehicle is a power-split continuously variable transmission (CVT) which uses several fixed ratio mechanisms. After describing this transmission, the rules of electric assist control strategy are introduced....
