Gear Consortium
Hypoid and Bevel Gear Mesh and Dynamic Modeling Consortium
Mission
- To develop gear mesh representations that will enable dynamic models to be formulated for simulating the vibration response of the driveline systems.
- To perform studies of the modal and dynamic characteristics controlling mesh force generation, vibration transmissibility, and gear whine.
- To develop an integrated gear mesh and dynamic modeling and analysis software package (HGSim).
- To apply the simulation software package for design, analysis and trouble-shooting.
- To develop a design roadmap for quiet gears.
