Thanks electricpete...to clarify, I meant the belt force was constant but the pulley is in motion. You got me covered.

I am interested in determining the radial force on the contact surface of a pulley and a flat belt under static tension. Can't find anything in the handbooks. Appreciate any information available.

Thanks Carburize. What's your source for the data?

Looking for Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio and density of ASTM A401 steel.

ferdo: Can you specify the process for exporting an IGES file from CATIA for importing into I-DEAS 10?

Try "Plastic Part Design for Injection Molding" by Robert A. Malloy, Hanser/Gardner Publications. ISBN 1-56990-129-5. It is the best primer on plastic part design I have found. Also try the resin supplier's design manuals. Good Luck.
