Design of Mechanical Power Transmissions: A monograph that includes: relevant definitions, gear kinematics, simple and compound gear trains. planetary gear systems, gear train applications, fixed ratio transmissions, variable ratio transmissions and varia

Design of Mechanical Power Transmissions addresses the classic problem of the need for an intermediate device between a mechanical power source and driven load that converts the motor output torque and speed to the torque and speed needs of the load. The content emphasizes the mathematical modeling and design performance analysis of the more commonly available fixed and variable ratio mechanical transmissions. A special feature of this monograph is that in every analytic development the sol...
