OK, not one question but several related ones...
This is all related to *fully engaged* clutches - my brain isn't ready to start dealing with slip just yet.
1) Does anyone out there actually measure clutch/damper torsional characteristics?
2) Do you rely on manufacturers information for...
Hello all.
For part of a vehicle drive train model I am working on, I need to get a rough value for the hub-to-road torsional stiffness of a typical small car wheel (something like a Ford Fiesta). I don't need an accurate value; I'm talking order of magnitude here.
Google has failed to yield...
I have a drawing for a gear in Japanese with English translations.
The specification for the lead and involute slope (pressure angle) modifications are given as two parameters: mean and dispersion e.g. "mean -10~-2", "dispersion 0~-20".
Any idea how these should be interpreted?
I could...
I've just come across a series of reports (20 yrs old) by Randy Allemang.
There is a lot of practical, theoretical and review information on modal testing and structural dynamic component synthesis techniques
Thanks to the wonders of US freedom of information, they can be downloaded in PDF...
I have an 3D linear model of a structure that is undergoing a steady state harmonic (single frequency) vibration response due to some harmonic forcing. It is a kind of FE model, but the modelling process is not really important.
The resulting time-varying displacement from its rest position of...
Some rather interesting (to me anyway!) issues have come up in some recent threads prompted by comments from Greg Locock ("Harmonics and Modes" and "physical significance of frequency response function ")
I have a question for the NVH people out there re shaker positioning...
