... is proposed. The theoretical analyses for both cases are verified with the FEM results and factors that influence the skew are discussed. Flat belts are fundamental machine elements that have been widely used in industrial equipments as well as household appliances for power transmission. They can also...

... spiral bevel gear impact FEM FFT The normal section of a commonly used head cutter blade comprises two circular-arc fillets and two straight edges, as shown in Fig. 2 . The equation for the straight edge, represented by the tool coordinate system S t ( x t , y t...

... to obtain a satisfactory solution. At the same time a finite element model (FEM) has been created for the global model, having also represented the rolling elements and their contact with the raceways. The results obtained using the FEM have been correlated with the results of the new procedure. The new...

... method (FEM) and the molecular dynamics (MD) method can prohibit direct integration of these tools in a design optimization procedure where multiple iterations are required. One, therefore, requires a design approach that can incorporate multiple simulations (multiphysics) of varying fidelity such as FEM...
