The overall passing process of a rolling element across the spall area is shown in Fig. 1. When the rolling element reaches the spall area, the rolling element comes in contact with the leading edge of the spall area (see Fig. 1(b)), and then the rolling element rolls into the spall area driven by the bearing cage. As a result, the equivalent radius of contact curvature between the rolling element and the bearing raceways increases, resulting in the decreases of curvature summation. According to the Hertzian contact theory, the contact force between the rolling element and the bearing races decreases, and the rolling element loses part of its load carrying capacity (i.e., de-stressing process of the rolling element). This results in a step response of the entry of the ball. Then, the center of the rolling element reaches the midway through the spall zone as shown in Fig. 1 (c). At this moment, the rolling element strikes on the trailing edge of the spall area, leading to an impulse response event which contains a high frequency components related to the resonances of bearing, and then the rotation center of the rolling element moves from the point E to the point L. Thereafter the rolling element rotates about L, and finally exits the spall area, that is, the rolling element re-stresses to its normal state of carrying radial load.

The addendum as and the dedendum bs are still defined in the usual way, as the radial distances from the standard pitch circle to the tip circle and the root circle. Hence, as and bs are related to the various radi i in the following manner, ( 12.19) (12.20) Meshing Geometry of an Internal Gear Pair The meshing diagram of an internal gear pair is shown in Figure 12.4, with the pinion as gear 1 and the internal gear as gear 2. The position of the pitch point, and the radii of Meshing Geometry of an Internal Gear Pair 267 the pitch circles, were given by Equations (12.5 and 12.6). The common tangent E,E2 to the base circles is the line of act ion, and the angle t/I between thi s line and the common tangent to the pitch circles is the operating pressure angle of the gear pair. The lines C1E1 and C2E2 are both perpendicular to the line of action, so they each make an angle t/I with the line of centers. By expressing the center distance C in terms of the base circle radii, we obtain an equation for the operating pressure angle t/I, cos t/I (12.21) We can also use Figure 12.4 to write down a relation between Rb2 and Rp2 ' = 268 Internal Gears The operating pressure angle ~P2 of the internal gear is defined as the profile angle at the pitch circle, and its value is therefore found from Equation (12.11), if we substitute Rp2 in place of R, cos ~P2 A comparison of the last two equations shows that ~P2 is equal to ~, and we can show in the same way that the operating pressure angle ~Pl of the pinion is also equal to ~. We therefore use the symbol ~p for the operating pressure angle of either gear, and its value is equal to the operating pressure angle of the gear pair, (12", "29) Contact Ratio We defined the contact ratio of an external gear pair in Chapter 4, as the rotation of either gear during one meshing cycle, divided by the angular pitch of the same gear. We then showed that this definition is equivalent to the length of the contact path, divided by the base pitch. For an internal gear pair, the contact ratio is defined in the same manner as for an external gear pair. Once again, we can replace the definition by the alternative description, and this time we will not prove their equivalence, since the proof is identical to the proof given in Chapter 4. In the meshing diagram shown in Figure 12.4, the line of action is the common tangent to the base circles, and the ends T1 and T2 of the path of contact are the points where the two tip circles intersect the line of action. The length T1T2 is related to the other lengths on the line of action, We express each of these lengths in terms of quantities defined on the gears, and divide by the base pitch, to obtain the contact ratio mc ' Internal Gears 271 As always, there is non-conjugate contact if the path of contact extends beyond the interference points. The first condition, therefore, for no interference at the fillets of the pinion in Figure 12.4 is that T2 should lie above E1, or in other words, E2 T 2 must be larger than E2E 1 ' > (12.31) There is no corresponding condition relating to the position of point T1, since in principle the involutes of the internal gear can extend out to any radius, and conjugate contact is theoretically possible, however large the tip circle radius of the pinion. In practice, of course, the involute section of the tooth profile in each gear ends at the fillet circle, and we must therefore ensure that contact ceases a suitable distance away from the fillet circle. The active section of the tooth profile in either gear is the part which comes into contact with the other gear. The end point of the active section of the profile nearest the root is called the limit point, and the circle through this point is the limit circle. In the pinion, the limit circle is the circle through point T2 , while in the internal gear, it is the circle through T1. The radii RL1 and RL2 of the limit circles can be read from Figure 12.4, (12.32) (12.33) To ensure that there is no contact at the fillets, the limit circle of the pinion must be larger than its fillet circle, and because the teeth of the internal gear face inwards, its limit circle must be smaller than its fillet circle. It is customary to leave a margin of at least O.025m between the circles, to allow for possible errors in the center distance, and we therefore obtain the following conditions, which must be satisfied by the radii Rf1 and Rf2 of the fi llet ci rcles, 272 Internal Gears (12" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0002963_j.mechmachtheory.2003.12.004-Figure8-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0002963_j.mechmachtheory.2003.12.004-Figure8-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 8.

This makes this platform mechanism moves radially inwards or outwards the center of the ball. This can also be found by a further observation that the elementary four-legged platform is composed of two sets of planar linkages which are perpendicular to each other [21]. Removing two pairs of scissor-pair in the orthogonal plane, a two-legged planar platform mechanism is thus obtained in Fig. 8. Due to the special geometric dimensions that BC \u00bc AF , DC \u00bc EF , and ED and AB are arcs of two concentric circles, and the constraint that the platform mechanism is situated in a circular loop-chain, there exist two relative constraint equations, h1 \u00bc p h3, and h2 \u00bc 2h1.

In this kinematic loop-chain, the symmetrical mechanism is composed of basic units each of which consisting of a planar two-legged platform and two parallelogram mechanisms as in Fig. 11a.

From the above result that the basic unit has mobility one, calculating the mobility of the circular loop-chain, the topological graph of the chain can be simplified. Similar to the analysis of the basic unit, the mobility of this kinematic chain is one. Thus, the mobility of the equatorial circular loop-chain is one and that indicates that the mobility of the ball mechanism is one.

TPMs When the actuator of a given leg of a TPM is locked, the moving platform will translate along a surface with its orientation unchanged under the action of the total constraints on the moving platform by all of the legs of the TPM. For brevity, the above surface is referred to as the leg-surface (Fig. 2) of the leg. Thus, the forward displacement analysis of the TPM can be described geometrically as follows: it consists in finding the intersection of three leg-surfaces. The higher the degree of the leg-surfaces, the more complicated the forward displacement analysis of the TPM. The simplest cases are TPMs with three planar leg-surfaces. As the intersection of three planes can be obtained by solving a set of linear equations, a TPM is a linear TPM if all of its three leg-surfaces are planes. Thus, type synthesis of linear TPMs is reduced to the type synthesis of legs for TPMs whose leg-surfaces are planes (Fig. 2(b)), which are referred to as legs for linear TPMs in the following. The type synthesis of linear TPMs can be performed in two steps. The first is to perform the type synthesis of legs for linear TPMs, the second is to perform the type synthesis of linear TPMs. In the type synthesis of legs for linear TPMs, we make the assumption that the first joint, i.e., the joint located on the base, is actuated while the other joints are unactuated.

It is important to identify the cause of this problem and to implement measures to prevent it from the standpoint of guaranteeing bearing durability and reliability. This peculiar short-life flaking mode was investigated in various tests in this study, focusing on hydrogen. The results have revealed the factors causing this phenomenon and an effective measure has been found for preventing it. The bearing test rig shown in Fig. 1 was used to evaluate the rolling contact fatigue life of thrust ball bearings, having races made of carbonitrided, quenched and tempered SCM420H, Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) and balls made of SUJ2, JIS. Vickers hardness at surface layer of the races was Hv 720 and that of the balls was Hv 770. The effective case depth of the races was 2mm. Two types of traction fluid (oils #1 and #2) which contain different additives were used as the lubricant in the tests, which were conducted under conditions of an oil temperature of 120 C and maximum Hertz stress, Pmax, of 3.6 GPa.

It follows that the singularity analysis and singular configuration determination does not require significant computational power. The proposed mechanism, see Fig. 1, is composed of a moving platform connected to a fixed platform by means of three unsymmetrical actuated limbs. One limb is a CPS1 serial manipulator that provides the parallel manipulator with two degrees of freedom, one due to the free translational motion of the cylindrical pair and the other due to the actuated prismatic joint. The second limb is a PS2 serial manipulator which forces the point O, fixed to the moving platform, to move along the Y-axis providing one degree of freedom to the parallel manipulator. The last limb is a typical HPS3 serial manipulator, where the actuated prismatic joint provides the fourth degree of freedom of the parallel manipulator. As far as the authors aware, the architecture of the parallel manipulator shown in Fig. 1 has not been previously reported in the literature. A screw is a six-dimensional vector composed of two three-dimensional vectors as follows: $ \u00bc s\u0302 ~sO ; \u00f01\u00de where the primal part, s\u0302, is a unit vector along the screw axis, whereas the dual part, ~sO, is the moment produced by s\u0302 around a point O fixed to the reference frame which is calculated, according to the pitch h of the screw and a vector~rO, as follows: ~sO \u00bc s\u0302 ~rO \u00fe hs\u0302. Any lower kinematic pair can be represented either by a screw or a group of screws", " This set of possible displacements does not form a subgroup of the Euclidean group, however the set has four degrees of freedom. Since the two first serial chains allow general displacements, then considering the three serial connecting chains, the parallel platform under study is a trivial chain of Tanev s type with four degrees of freedom. The four degrees of freedom can be chosen as the freedoms associated with the third serial chain PS2. The forward position analysis of the parallel manipulator shown in Fig. 1 is stated as follows. It must be recalled that the lengths associated with the limbs, {q1,q2,q3,q4}, are given, and it is required to determine the pose, position and orientation, of the moving platform w.r.t. the fixed platform via the computation of the coordinates of the three spherical joints attached to the moving platform and expressed in the reference frame XYZ.

The actual computational cost will, of course, be larger for l > 1 than l = 1, and it grows cubically with increasing l, so this result is really only of practical use for small values of l.

The rotorless type is a curemeter in which one half of the die enclosing the test piece, rather than a paddle or disc within the test piece, oscillates or reciprocates (Figure 6.7). Despite the widespread use of curemeters, progress to international standardisation was relatively slow, partly because of patent difficulties as a Test on unvulcanized rubbers 85 result of the virtual monopoly of certain commercial instruments. However, the oscillating disk curemeter was eventually standardized as ISO 3417^^ .\u0302 The apparatus is described in some detail, based on commercially available equipment, with requirements for construction, dimensions, frequency and amplitude of oscillation, closing pressure and temperature control. The ASTM standard, D2084^^^ preceded and was the model for the ISO method. It is considered to be technically the same as ISO 3417 with minor differences not being significant. The British standard, BS 903 Part A60-2'^^ is identical to ISO 3417. ISO does not have a standard specifically for rotorless curemeters, but instead has a guide to the use of curemeters, ISO 6502^^ .\u0302 This covers both oscillating disc and rotorless curemeters and distinguishes three types of rotorless instrument - reciprocating, oscillating unsealed cavity and oscillating sealed cavity. It points out the principal advantages of rotorless curemeters as being that the test temperature is reached in a shorter time and there is better temperature distribution in the test piece. The rationale for this approach to stadardising is that a general guide can apply to different types of curemeter and is not restricted to a particular commercial design. All the general matter such as the principles of the different types of instrument, the level of temperature control desirable and the measures which can be taken from the cure trace etc can be in one place, without the problems of specifying in detail the various instrument geometries and constructions available. Also, material common to both oscillating disk and rotorless instruments would not need repetition. The aim as regards covering various designs of rotorless instrument has been achieved but has failed in respect of preventing repetition as the standard refers to ISO 3417 as having particular requirements for oscillating disk instruments. The basic principles of curemetering are covered and typical vulcanization curves illustrated together with the parameters that can be derived from them. By way of illustration the curve for a plateau type cure on an oscillating disc curemeter is shown in Figure 6.8.

To \u00aend all the singularities and establish their types, the procedure described in Section 3.2 is followed: 1. Check for IIM singularities. For the given mechanism, it is established that condition (vi) has no solution compatible with the given link lengths. 2. Check for RPM singularities. The condition (iii) is satis\u00aeed only when the determinants of both [ SBSOSD] and [ SCSGSD] vanish. This gives eight distinct singular con\u00aegurations (one of them is shown in Fig. 2) 3. (3.2) For each of the eighth con\u00aegurations in {2}, conditions (i) and (ii) are checked and it is found that neither is satis\u00aeed. (3.5) It is concluded that the (RPM, IO, II) class consists of the eight elements of {2}. (4) Condition (vii) is applied. (vii) is equivalent to the singularity of at least one of the matrices [ SBSCSD] or [ SCSGSF]. The solution of each of these equations (combined with the loop equations) is a 1-dimensional submanifold of the 2-dimensional con\u00aeguration space. The \u00aerst manifold has four connected components, and the second one has three components", " However, it can be seen that if a non-trivial linear combination of these 8-dimensional column vectors equals zero, then both sets of screws { SB, SC, SD} and { SC, SD, SG} must be linearly dependent. (Indeed, since mFG is never zero, the coe cient of the last column must be zero. Moreover, since SB is always di erent from SC, the coe cients of three columns preceding the last one (columns 7, 8, 9, of L in (6)) are not all zero. This implies that { SC, SD, SG} are linearly dependent. From the properties of planar screws it then follows that an RPM-type singularity of the mechanism shown in Fig. 1 occurs when both sets of points {B, C, D} and {C, D, G} are colinear (Fig. 2). Thus, using screw theory, the singularity conditions can be interpreted as geometric criteria, as illustrated by the example analysed later in Section 5. It should be noted that, such a screw theory based approach provides a better geometrical insight into the problem of singularity identi\u00aecation, and it is not dependent on the speci\u00aec values of the link parameters. This allows the study of singularities that occur for a given kinematic chain regardless of the values of the link parameters.

Based on the geometrical relationship as shown in Fig. 2, the total elastic deflection dk can be equivalently formulated by dk \u00bc d1 \u00fe d2 Ck \u00f03\u00de where the contact geometrical relationship d1 and d2, shown in Fig. 2(c), can be expressed such as d1 \u00bc x cos hk \u00f04\u00de d2 \u00bc y sin hk \u00f05\u00de where hk is the angular position of the kth rolling element relative to x coordinate axis, which can be given by hk \u00bc h0 \u00fexct \u00fe 2p\u00f0k 1\u00de=Nball \u00f06\u00de where h0 denotes the initial angular offset (see Fig. 2(a)) of the first rolling element with respect to x coordinate axis, Nball represents the total number of the rolling elements, xc refers to the rotational speed of the cage and can be calculated by xc \u00bc 0:5xr\u00f01 v\u00de \u00f07\u00de wherexr is the rotational speed of the shaft. v \u00bc Dball cosa=Dm, with a and Dm being the contact angle and the pitch diameter of the REB, and Dball is the rolling element diameter. In this work, a single inner race surface spall is studied theoretically and experimentally. The contact deformation between the inner race and the kth rolling element has an additional change (see Fig", " Thus, it can be formulated by kk \u00bc 1 mod\u00f0/spall;2p\u00de hspall 6 mod\u00f0hk;2p\u00de 6 mod\u00f0/spall;2p\u00de \u00fe hspall and wm 6 mod\u00f0/spall;2p\u00de 6 wmand wm 6 mod\u00f0hk;2p\u00de 6 wm 0 otherwise 8>< >: \u00f013\u00de Similarly to the application of external radial load on the bearing, the magnitude of the load acting on the rolling element when it rolls though a spall-free location within the load zone, Qw, is classically formulated as in [16] by Qw \u00bc Qm \u00f02 1\u00fe cosw\u00de=2 \u00bd 1:5 wm 6 w 6 wm 0 elsewhere ( \u00f014\u00de where wm refers to the angular limit of the load zone (see Fig. 2(a)), Qm denotes the maximum load, and is the load distribution factor and given by \u00bc 0:5\u00f01 Cd=2dr\u00de, in which dr represents the radial shift of the ring at w \u00bc 0. All these above parameters can be calculated as in [16]. However, the magnitude of the radial load component carried by the rolling element alters when the rolling element comes in contact with the spall zone, and it can not be governed by Eq.

Diamond is used since, unlike sapphire, it can transmit infra-red wavelengths in the chemical region of the infra-red spectrum. Alternatively, a rolling contact can be produced using a test rig similar to that in Fig. 4 but with an infra-red, transparent, calcium fluoride disc. Infra-red radiation is focused into the contact using an FTIR microscope system and this is reflected back from the lubricant/steel interface and collected by the microscope optics for analysis.

When elastic impact is assumed, the energy remains conserved, but the ball may wander around the table without exactly repeating a previous motion for certain elliptically shaped tables.

This was the origin of the later Gleason Corporation, a prominent machine tool maker in the world. At the beginning, only machines for cutting spur gears were made in this company. In 1913, Gleason invented a method for cutting spiral bevel gears with face milling as shown in Fig. 12.10. This is the well know Gleason method, a single indexing method. The tooth trace of the bevel gear in the Gleason method is a circular arc and the tooth depth at the larger diameter is larger than that at the smaller diameter (tapered teeth). The Gleason method can also be used in grinding and lapping. In 1927, the company successfully developed the process of manufacturing hypoid gears.

An internal gear pair.", "texts": [ " In the case of an internal gear, it is clear that the gear cannot mesh with any rack, so a different method is required for defining its tooth shape. We first determine what shape the tooth profile of the internal gear must have, if the gear is to mesh correctly with an involute pinion. And we will then show that the tooth profile of the internal gear can still be regarded as conjugate with the basic rack, 260 Internal Gears provided the basic rack is an imaginary rack of the sort discussed earlier. Figure 12.1 shows an involute pinion meshed with an internal gear. The pinion is numbered as gear 1, and the internal gear as gear 2. We proved in Chapter 1 that, for the Law of Gearing to be satisfied, the common normal at the contact point must always pass through the pitch point P, which is a fixed point on the line of centers. The position of P is such that, when we draw the pitch circles touching each other at P, the angular velocity ratio of the two gears is the same as it would be if the two pitch circles were to make roll ing contact wi th no slipping", "4), the corresponding relation for an external gear pair. The direction of rotation of the pinion is always the same as that of the internal gear, so w1 has the same sign as w2 , as indicated by Equation (12.1). If the radii of the pitch circles are RP1 and Rp2 ' and the circles roll together without slipping, their angular velocities must be related as follows, (12.2) It is evident from Equations (12.1 and 12.2) that the pitch circle radii are proportional to the tooth numbers, (12.3) In addition, we can see from Figure 12.1 that the difference between the pitch circle radi i is equal to the center distance C, C (12.4) We solve Equations (12.3 and 12.4), to obtain the values of RP1 and Rp2 ' ( 12.5) (12.6) We have now found the position of the pitch point P, since it is the point where the pitch circles touch each other. We next determine the shape of the internal gear tooth profile, if the common normal at the contact point is to pass through P. Since the tooth profile of the pinion is an involute, the normal to the profile at any point touches the pinion base circle. To find the position of the contact point, when the pinion is in the position shown in Figure 12.1, we 262 Internal Gears first draw the tangent from P to the pinion base circle, touching the base circle at E1. The point A1 where this line cuts the pinion tooth profile must be the contact point, since it is the only point of the profi Ie whose normal passes through P. A point on the tooth profile of the internal gear must therefore coincide with A1, since A1 is the contact point. This point on the internal gear is labelled A2 , and the normal to the internal gear tooth profile at A2 lies along A1PE 1, because the normals to both profiles must coincide at the contact point", " We have therefore proved that the normal to the tooth profile at every point of the profile must touch the base circle. This is exactly the manner in which the involute was defined in Chapter 2, so the tooth profile of an internal gear is identical to that of an external gear with the same number of teeth. The difference between the two types of gear, however, is that the teeth of the internal gear lie outside the profile, while those of the external gear lie inside it. In other words, the teeth of the internal gear have exactly the same shape as the tooth spaces in an external gear. We now make use again of Figure 12.1. Since lines C2E2 and C1E1 are both perpendicular to line E2E1, the two triangles C2E2P and C1E1P are similar. The ratio of the base circle radii is therefore equal to that of the pitch circle radii, which we showed in Equation (12.3) is also equal to the ratio of the tooth numbers, (12.7) The base pitches of both gears are defined by Equation (2.22), Tooth Profile of an Internal Gear 263 (12.8) (12.9) Since, as we have just proved, the base circle radii are proportional to the tooth numbers, it follows from Equations (12" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003307_1.2791809-Figure4-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003307_1.2791809-Figure4-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 4 A three-degrees-of-freedom manipulator", "texts": [ " 6 Examples For the illustration of the inverse and forward dynamics algorithms developed in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, respectively, two manipulators, namely, a three-degrees-of-freedom planar manipulator and a six-degrees-of-freedom Stanford arm, as shown in Figs. 4 and 7, respectively, are analyzed using RIDIM and RFDS!M software. 6.1 A Three-Degrees.of-Freedom Planar Manipulator.

This is naturally supplied to some extent by specifying a particular grade and source of supply but leaves open to question the variability of that source of supply. Some workers prefer to use a standard rubber to test the abradant and to calculate a relative volume loss: V xV. Relative volume loss = -^ where Vr = volume loss of rubber under test, Vd = the defined volume loss of the standard rubber and Vs = the measured volume loss of the standard rubber. Whichever approach you take, the result is still dependent on the variability of the standard rubber and, arguably, it could be better to rely on the reproducible manufacture of, for example, an abrasive wheel. It would not seem beyond the bounds of ingenuity to find a standard material which is inherently more reproducible than rubber! It could then be used either to certify the abradant or to use in the calculation of abrasion index. If abrasion loss is measured as a function of test parameters such as speed, temperature, degree of slip, contact pressure etc, it may be possible to combine the results in some way to produce a composite measure of abrasion resistance.

It is impossible to cut the gear tooth involute any further, since the involute does not exist inside the base circle. In Chapter 9, we will describe the exact shape cut in the gear by the tooth tip of the cutter. At this stage, we will simply state that the path followed by point Ahc ' relative to the gear blank, is a curve that intersects the involute near the base circle, as shown in Figure 5.16. The result is that part of the involute in the gear tooth profile is cut away. This phenomenon is called undercutting, because a section of the correct involute profile is undercut by the tip of the cutter tooth. Undercutting is essentially the same as interference between the cutter and the gear blank. There is, however, one important difference between interference and undercutting. Undercutting 141 Interference occurs in a gear pair, if there is non-conjugate contact between the tooth tips of one gear and the tooth fillets of the other, and the gear pair is then unusable", "50) Examples 189 This quantity is negative, so the gear will be undercut.

Relation between the pitches.", "texts": [ " We follow the same pattern in the description of a helical gear, except that in this case there is more than one type of tooth pitch. We first define the tooth pitches at a cylinder of arbitrary radius R, and then we describe the corresponding quanti ties at the standard pitch cylinder and at the base cylinder. The operating pitches will not be introduced until Chapter '4, where we discuss the meshing of helical gears. The tooth pitches at any radius R are defined as lengths on the developed cylinder of radius R, which is shown in Figure 13.12. The cylinder is drawn wi th a length equal to the gear lead L, so that the teeth appear as lines parallel to the diagonal, making an angle \"'R with the z direction, and in this length each tooth makes exactly one revolution round the gear. A typical tooth is shown as a broken line such as T,T2T3T4 \u2022 A transverse section through the cylinder appears on the developed surface as a vertical line with a constant value of z. Hence, if the gear has N teeth, there must be N teeth cutting any vertical line through the rectangle, and since the lines representing the teeth are parallel with the diagonal, there will also be N teeth cutting any axial line. The axial pitch Pz is defined as the distance between adjacent teeth, measured in the axial direction. Since any axial line in Figure 13.12 is crossed by N teeth, the axial Tooth Pi tches 325 pi tch is equal to the lead di vided by the number of teeth, ~ N (13.36) The axial pitch is independent of the radius R, as we can see from Equation (13.36). It is also clear, from the same equation, that the axial pitch Pz must obey the same sign convention as the lead L. In other words, Pz is positive for right-handed gears, and negative for left-handed. It should perhaps be pointed out that in North America the standard symbol for the axial pitch is Px' The use of Pz was chosen here, because with the coordinate system used in this book, the axial pitch is measured in the z direction. The transverse pitch PtR at radius R is defined as the distance between adjacent teeth, measured in the transverse direction. Its value can be read from Figure 13.12, 211'R N (13.37) From this definition, it is clear that the transverse pitch of a helical gear at any radius is identical with the corresponding circular pi tch of a spur gear. Next, the normal pitch PnR at radius R is defined as the distance between adjacent teeth, measured along a line perpendicular to the teeth in the developed cylinder, as shown in Figure 13.12. We can use the diagram to derive relations between the various pitches, PnR PtR cos \"'R (13.38) Pz PnR (13.39) sin \"'R The transverse pitch and the normal pitch at the standard pitch cylinder are generally called the transverse pitch and the normal pitch of the gear.

The maximal height was only 5 mm. The height at all corners was greater was that the speed at the corner was lower than at other positions because of the effect of the acceleration and deceleration of the moving table near to the corner. Also the cross-sectional view of the clad pro\u00aele was of arc type because of surface tension and the Gaussian distribution of laser beam intensity. An illustrated diagram of some unmelted residual powders accumulated at the base of the \u00aerst clad is shown in Fig. 3. The reason for these accumulated powders is that the powder \u00afow rate was too high or the powder stream was bigger than the spot size of the focused beam. In the second clad, the clad pro\u00aele became sharper. Also some of the residual powders from the previous clad were melted in the successive cladding operation, and this melted residual powder made the clad pro\u00aele even more sharp, as shown in Fig. 3(b). Again, the same situation happened in successive cladding operations, as shown in Fig. 3(c). Hence, the height of the clad could no longer be increased because the clad pro\u00aele was too sharp to accumulate any melted powder. In order to increase the accumulation of the melted powder on the surface of the clad, machining was employed to smooth the clad surface. Secondly, after every three claddings, the melted metals were machined to a thickness of 0.15 mm. This was continued until a height of 10 mm was achieved. There was a lot of powder attached at the edge of the part. Also the ripple effect at the edge was excessive before machining", " As shown in this \u00aegure, there is no porosity at the top surface after milling, which means that there is no porosity in the clad, if the cladding operation parameters were carefully selected. The geometry of the mold cavity was not stepwise as is general in layer manufacturing processes. A sloping surface of the mold cavity was formed because of the surface tension of the clad and the accumulated powder melting. Although the milling operation was applied on the clad every two layers, the results of the accumulated powder and the sloping surface of the clad were similar to that of the single clad as shown in Fig. 3. The reason for this phenomenon is that the layer thickness of 0.5 mm was set too thick. The dimensions of the mold cavity were measured at eight different positions. The average error of the mold cavity was about 0.15 mm. The objective of the mold modi\u00aecation is to investigate the feasibility of the mold modi\u00aecation and repair using the hybrid processes of SLC and milling.

The remaining two classes, which are not directly illustrated by \u00aegures, consist of singularities that are comparatively easy to describe and envision (Step 6). 5.3.2. The identi\u00aecation procedure. Below, the steps of the identi\u00aecation procedure are detailed", " The \u00aerst component has 13 con\u00aegurations, and one of them is shown in Fig. 6. In this con- \u00aeguration, the points P are on the SP 1 axes and the three axes SP 2 intersect in one point, D. The 13 con\u00aegurations can be obtained by varying the elevation of the moving platform and moving the intersection point, D, in the base plane (D can also be at in\u00aenity). Several 2-dimensional manifolds of IIM-type singularities are attached to the 3-dimensional set. One of these can be obtained from the con\u00aeguration shown in Fig. 7 by rotating the moving platform about the line BC (and varying the elevation of points B and C). The second component is 1-dimensional and consists of con\u00aegurations like the one in Fig. 8, where the three supporting legs are fully extended and the two platforms are in the same plane. (2) RPM-type singularities From Equation (11) it is evident that L\u00c3 p is singular only when either mB 1 or mC 1 are zero, i.e. when either B or C are on the axis of the \u00aerst-joint screw of the corresponding subchain", " From condition (iv), it follows that an element of {1} is an II-type singularity if and only if the 6 6 matrix L\u00c3 I has a null-space dimension of at least two. Next, we check whether this condition is satis\u00aeed for the di erent IIM-type singularities as determined in Step (1). For all the 13 con\u00aegurations of the type shown in Fig. 6, where for all three serial subchains point P is on the SP 1 axis, the condition is satis\u00aeed since mB 1 and mC 1 are zero vectors. For the IIM-type con\u00aegurations with three extended legs (as in Fig. 8) the condition is not satis\u00aeed. If only two subchains are singular (similar to Fig. 7), the condition is always satis\u00aeed when the singular subchains are B and C (as in the \u00aegure). When, however, one of the singular subchains is A, then, generally, the matrix A is of rank 5. There are two exceptions. The \u00aerst is represented in Fig. 9, where the singular subchains are A and B and additionally the point Co lies in the plane ABC. The second exception is shown in Fig. 10, where not only points B and C are located on screws SB 1 and SC 1 , but also point A lies in the (vertical) plane de\u00aened by the two screws. Each of Figs 9 and 10 represents, in fact 11 con\u00aegurations, since the elevation of point A can vary. Thus, the set of singularities belonging to the IIM, IO and II types consists of a main 3- dimensional set (Fig. 6), a 2-dimensional set (Fig. 7) and two 1-dimensional sets (Figs 9 and 10). The set of singularities in the IIM and IO types has two 2-dimensional components (similar to Fig. 7. with subchain A as one of the singular ones) and a 1-dimensional component (Fig. 8). (3.2) According to condition (i) and Equation (13), a con\u00aeguration is an RI-type singularity if and only if at least one of the following conditions is satis\u00aeed: either the subchain A is singular (in any way); or subchain B is fully extended; or subchain C is fully extended. Condition (ii) and Equation (12) imply that an RPM-singularity is also of the RO-type in the following three cases: (a) When C is on the SC 1 axis and the plane ABC is perpendicular to mC 2 (Fig", " 9, though subchain A need not be singular). Thus, four sets are obtained: 15 RPM-type singularities, 14 RPM and RI-type singularities, 14 RPM and RO-type singularities and RPM, RI and RO-type singularities. (3.3) The intersections of the subsets of {3.1} and {3.2} give the 10 singularity classes (Table 2) of con\u00aegurations that are both IIM and RPM. Of these, only \u00aeve classes are non-empty for the mechanism under consideration: (a) (IIM, IO, RPM, RI) has 12 con\u00aegurations with two singular subchains similarly to Fig. 7, but subchain A must be one of the singular subchains. When the two singular subchains are A and B, point Co should not lie in the plane ABC (i.e. unlike Fig. 10). Alternatively, if the singular subchains are A and C, then the plane ABC should not contain Co and Ao. (b) (IIM, IO, II, RPM) has 12 con\u00aegurations as in Fig. 7. The singular subchains must be B and C. The plane ABC must not contain Co and Bo (unlike Fig. 10). (c) (IIM, IO, II, RPM. RI) has 13 con\u00aegurations with three singular subchains as in Fig. 6. (d) (IIM, IO, II, RPM, RO) has 11 con\u00aegurations like the one depicted in Fig. 10. The moving plane ABC contains the points Co and Bo and the subchains B and C are singular in the same way as in Fig. 7. (e) (IIM, IO, II, RPM, RI, RO) has 11 con\u00aegurations in two 1-dimensional sets. The \u00aerst is represented by the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 9. It is similar to Fig. 7 with singular subchains A and B, but point Co is in the plane ABC, allowing for a RO-singularity. The second set is similar to the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 9, however, the non-singular subchain must be B rather than A. (3.4) Only one of the four classes of IIM but not RPM singularities is non-empty: (IIM, IO, RI, RO) consists of 11 con\u00aegurations as in Fig. 8. (3.5) All of the four RPM but not IIM classes are non-empty. (RPM, II, IO) has 15 con\u00aegurations. An example for this class can be obtained from the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 7 by an arbitrarily small perturbation of the subchain C while subchains A and B remain \u00aexed. (RPM, RI, II, IO) has 14 con\u00aegurations and can be illustrated by a variation of Fig. 6 obtained by maintaining the depicted position of the subchains A and B and slightly perturbing subchain C. (RPM, RO, II, IO) has 12 con\u00aegurations. An example is obtained from the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 10 by a small rotation of subchain C about SC 1 .

For example, at a rubber/air interface there is a large difference in acoustic impedance and less ultrasonic energy will be transmitted than at a well-bonded rubber to metal interface. Hence, if there is an area of debonding at the rubber/metal interface and there is a thin layer of air or a vacuum between the two this can be detected by loss in the transmitted, or increase in the reflected, ultrasound. Attractive and simple as the technique is in theory, in practice there are a number of difficulties which severely limit its value. Only areas of disbond, not a weak bond, can be detected although very weak areas can be made to part by pre-stressing, which is in any case necessary to separate the debonded areas. Notwithstanding these remarks, there have been considerable developments in ultrasonic flaw detection over the years although there has not been any widespread adoption of the technique in the rubber industry generally. Other non-destructive tests have been suggested to estimate bond quality, but such techniques as holography and radiography, and also ultrasonics, have mostly been used in the rubber industry for detection of flaws in tyres.

The lower Ni level reduces the formation of reverted austenite, while the addition of Mo enhances the corrosion resistance, and the low carbon content enables crack free additive manufacturing of this stainless steel grade. The goal of this work is to introduce a cost-effective novel HAM 420/ Corrax for the manufacturing of complex plastic injection molding dies with superior corrosion resistance properties. Fig. 1a shows a typical plastic injection molding machine. A simple plastic injection molding die set includes core and cavity, as shown in Fig. 1b. The molten plastic is forced into the empty volume between the core and cavity to produce a part after cooling. A more complex injection molding die may include core, cavity, neck ring, core ring, gauge insert, cavity flange, etc. Currently, typical plastic injection molding dies are fabricated using 420 stainless steel and by conventional manufacturing techniques. The cooling channels are drilled in the dies; therefore, there are design limitations due to the manufacturing technology constraints", " One solution to this problem is to decrease the operating temperature by designing appropriate cooling channels in the dies. Studies suggest that molds with complex conformal cooling channels, which can be manufactured with HAM, would decrease the cycle time of injection molding up to 50% whilst improving plastic injection molding die life by more than 30% [37]. Furthermore, conformal cooling instead of straight water lines, which is made possible by hybrid AM, may prevent hot spots and increase the accuracy of the parts produced [38]. As presented in Fig. 1b, we suggest using 420 (brown) as the base and print Corrax (red) on 420 to enable the cost-effective manufacturing of complex molds with optimized cooling channels for higher performance and durability. In general, HAM is a process that integrates additive manufacturing and subtractive manufacturing, which can be used for rapid prototyping [39]. In the current work, we suggest fabricating plastic injection molding dies using additive manufacturing involving cooling channels and the more geometrically complex volumes of dies followed by the final shaping of the die (substrate) by subtractive manufacturing", " A major cause of failure in a plastic injection molding die is pitting corrosion in the cooling pathways. Pitting corrosion is a localized type of corrosion by which microscopic holes are initiated in the material. Growth of those pits can lead to the early fracture of the dies under cyclic loading, i.e. corrosion-fatigue failure, during continuous production. Since injection molding is a cost-sensitive industry, it is not applicable in practice to use expensive stainless steels such as the 3xx series with superior corrosion resistance. As shown in Fig. 1, we suggest using 420 as the base and print the core and cavity, including cooling channels using Corrax as affordable stainless steel with enhanced corrosion resistance. To examine it, we subject the 420/Corrax interface in the asbuilt condition to potentiodynamic polarization corrosion tests using 200 and 2000 ppm NaCl solution as the electrolyte. The 2000 ppm NaCl media is considered as a harshly corrosive environment.

Therefore, the proposed approach is promising for wider applications of the L-PBF process.

We assume that the motor moves with constant speed V along the rods the results can are trivially generalized for the case of V const . To simplify the system even further, we consider a symmetric case: the distance of the motor from the center point of the rod S, \u2212l /2 S l /2 is the same for both rods; see Fig. 2. We choose the orientation of x axis along the bisector of the angle between the tubules, and we denote the angle between a tubule and a bisector note that = 2\u2212 1 /2 . Since the size of a motor 30 nm is much smaller than the length of a microtubule l 5\u201310 m , we 031915-4 consider a limit of zero motor size. Since the motor\u2019s bending elasticity is rather small, we approximate the motor by a soft spring and prescribe that the force F exerted on the tubules due to motor motion is perpendicular to the bisector of the angle between the tubules i.e., along the motor , which in the symmetric case is along the x axis; see Fig. 2. Even if the symmetry is initially broken and the force is exerted at an angle to the x axis, the force will initiate a relative displacement of the tubules in the y direction, which will shift the binding points in such a way as to restore the symmetry. The equations governing evolution of the angle between the microtubule and the bisector and the coordinates X ,Y of the center of mass of the microtubule are obtained from balance of torques and forces due to motor motion and viscous drag forces t = r \u22121S cos F , 15 tX = \u22121 cos2 + \u22121 sin2 F , 16 tY = \u22121 \u2212 \u22121 sin cos F ", " However, for moderate values we observed that asters and vortices become even less localized; see Fig. 9. This delocalization is because the absorbed motors advect the microtubules in the direction opposite to their orientation. Consequently, these motors move the tubules from the asters and make a small depression of density for 0 contrary to the density peak for =0, compare images in Fig. 9. Similar results were also obtained for vortices. Remarkably, the suppression of density of microtubules in the core of vortex is also observed experimentally; see Fig. 2 a in Ref. 5 . The presence of motors attached to the substrate may also explain differential rotation of vortices absent in our previous analysis. Indeed, since these motors generate net motion of individual microtubules with the velocity , they can support rotating configurations similar to those observed in the system of vibrated rods 32 .

Gavin type grips for dumb-bell tensile test pieces", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "Short term stress-strain properties 139\nOne grip is fixed and the other attached to a crosshead which is motor driven so as to extend the test piece whilst the force is monitored by the load cell. The output of the load cell, and an extensometer (or crosshead movement), is fed to a computer.\nISO 37 refers to ISO 5843^^ for specification of the test machine. This standard was produced to avoid the need to attempt description of a complex engineering instrument in a testing standard. It is intended that all test methods using a tensile machine will refer to this document, which specifies requirements quite comprehensively, including tolerances on the measurement of force and extension.\nRings are held by a pair of pulleys mounted on roller bearings, a mechanism being provided to rotate one or both pulleys automatically during the test. It is not satisfactory to use pegs or fixed pulleys because the rubber does not readily slip over the surfaces and is therefore not uniformly stretched. However, lubricated spindles are specified in ASTM D412 to try and overcome the problem.\nDumb-bells are rather less easy to grip and considerable ingenuity has been devoted to the design of a grip that will hold the end of a dumb-bell with a pressure uniform across its width and adequate to prevent slipping, but without setting up local strains liable to cause failure. The essential design feature is that the grip should close automatically as the tension increases. A widely used and successful design is that due to Gavin shown in\nFigure 8.11.\nThe dumb-bell end is held between rollers A, the ends of which pass through slots in the members B and C; the slots in C are horizontal and those in B steeply sloping. By depressing C by hand against the spring D, the rollers are forced apart for the insertion of the dumb-bell; on release the spring pushes C up until the rollers grip the dumb-bell. During the test the tension on the dumb-bell tends to pull the rollers further up and, hence, by reason of the inwardly sloping slots, closer together, thus increasing the grip.\nAnother mechanical design is a roller closing against a flat plate and in certain extreme cases this type of grip with the dumb-bell wrapped around the roller is the most successful. The alternative to achieving self closing by a mechanical device is to use pneumatic or hydraulic grips where flat parallel faces are pushed on to the dumb-bell end under air or fluid pressure. Although more expensive, this type of grip can be very effective and convenient to use.\nRather surprisingly, lubrication of the dumb-bell ends with talc sometimes improves gripping, presumably by permitting just enough slip to equalise the gripping pressure.", "The test piece must be stretched smoothly at substantially constant speed and to meet this requirement the drive must have sufficient power to maintain the speed even under maximum force. The standard rate of grip separation is 500\u00b150 mm/min but this does not necessarily mean that the actual rate of strain in the test piece is being kept constant between equally close limits. If the dumb-bell slips in the grips or the loads cell has rather low stiffness, the rate of extension is less than the speed of the moving grip. In addition, with a dumb-bell, the rate of strain is not constant throughout its length. The actual strain rate in the centre narrow portion will depend on the free length of test piece between the grips, on the dumb-bell shape (especially the ratio of widths of central and end portions) and on the shape of the stress/strain curve. Hence, the strain rate in the centre portion will not always be the same in different tests or even constant during one test.\nGenerally, speed variations of \u00b110% have a negligible effect on the measured tensile strength at the effective strain rates realised in the standard test\u0302 ^ (i.e. about 650%/min for large rings and 800-1300%/min for type 1 and 2 dumb-bells). Considering the closeness of results on types 1 and 2 dumb-bells, it is probable that rather larger variations from the arbitrary standard would not be significant. However, it is possible that for thermoplastic rubbers or tests made at low temperatures there could be", "Short term stress-strain properties 141\ngreater sensitivity to strain rate, so it is sensible to avoid unnecessary variation. Very large changes in strain rate will affect tensile properties but there seems to have been little interest in very high rates for rubber since a falling weight driven machine for strain rates between 2.5 and 12.7 m/sec was described^ .\u0302 Measures of modulus over decades of strain rate can be obtained with dynamic tests as discussed in chapter 9.\nInstead of constant rate of traverse, it would be perfectly feasible to use a constant rate of strain testing machine for rubbers, but this complication and expense has never been considered worthwhile.\nThe days of reading force off the dial of a pendulum force measuring system are long gone (although these are still mentioned in ASTM D412) and tensile machines now use electrical force transducers that feed their signal directly to a computer. This means that there are negligible errors due to inertia or friction and the system is inherently stiff (i.e. there is little movement of the force measuring element). There is also the convenience of multiple force scales and automatic manipulation of data. The sophistication of tensile machines varies and the choice has to be one based on balancing range, accuracy, quality of construction and convenience against cost. It should be noted that increased sophistication of data manipulation does potentially introduce problems of verification of the software as computers cannot make value judgements in the same manner as a trained technician.\nISO 5893 specifies four grades of steady state accuracy and gives reference to detailed methods of verification. ISO 37 specifies Grade 2 which is \u00b12%. Although ISO 5893 considers dynamic calibration to be too difficult to specify at present, it does give recommendations to ensure that the recording system used with electrical load cells does not introduce significant inertia errors - it is not often realised that recorders may have very significant dynamic errors and, hence, lessen the inherent advantage of an 'inertialess' load cell. Modem instruments use a data capture system and a computer to store the force and displacement data in digital form.\nASTM also specifies a tolerance of \u00b1 2% on force and refers to a calibration standard for force verification of testing machines in general.\nAs with pendulum force measuring systems, the use of a ruler or a piece of string to measure elongation of dumb-bells is largely history- to the relief of technicians whose fingers were frequently stung by the recoiling halves of the test piece after rupture.\nAs long as the deflection of the load cell is insignificant, the elongation" ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0000265_j.matdes.2019.108138-Figure3-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0000265_j.matdes.2019.108138-Figure3-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 3.

Therefore, this paper focuses on investigating the effects of the machining surface and the laser scanning strategy on machining performance of SLMed Ti6Al4V alloys in milling. In this paper, SLMed Ti6Al4V samples fabricatedwith three different laser scanning strategies are illustrated in Fig. 1. As shown in Fig. 1 (a), the fully dense spherical Ti6Al4V powder (provided by Renishaw Corp., UK) was employed in SLM and the adhesion and agglomeration phenomena of the as-received titanium alloy powder were negligible. The detailed chemical composition of Ti6Al4V ELI-0406 (Extra Low Interstitial) powder is given in Table 1 (provided by Renishaw Corp.). Ti6Al4V ELI-0406 powder can be considered as a higher purity version of themost commonly used titanium alloy Grade 5. The SLMed titanium alloy samples were manufactured by a RenAM 500 M machine (Renishaw Corp., UK), which is equipped with a 500 W Yb-fibre laser beam, an automated powder and waste handling systems, as shown in Fig. 1 (b). To prevent titanium alloy material from being contaminated or oxidized by air during powder bed fusion, an argon inert atmosphere was maintained with b1000 ppm (0.1%) oxygen throughout the build process. The laser scanning strategy in SLM is of great significance to microstructure, mechanical property and material anisotropy of AMed components. To investigate the effect of the laser scanning strategy on machining performance of SLMed Ti6Al4V alloy, three distinct laser scanning schemes were employed to fabricate Ti6Al4V samples during continuous SLM building strategy, as illustrated in Fig. 1(c). The laser beam moved along the zigzag trajectory in each layer of the three laser scanning schemes. The laser scanning strategy for successive layers was identical or rotated by a certain angle.

Finally, the rectangular Ti6Al4V samples of 30mm(L) \u00d7 20mm (W) \u00d7 15 mm (H) were manufactured using 0\u00b0 linear, 90\u00b0 and 67.5\u00b0 rotational SLM process, as shown in Fig. 1(d).

The element composition of ASTM B265 Ti6Al4V provided by the supplier is given in Table 2. In this research, all milling experiments were carried out on a CNC vertical machining centre MAKINO V55 with a maximum spindle speed of 14,000 rpm.

SLMed Ti6Al4V samples exhibit significant anisotropy features due to the differences inmicrostructure andmechanical properties in different directions. Thus, the machining performance on the front surface (xoz plane) and the top surface (xoy plane) of SLMed Ti6Al4V alloy samples is investigated in this research, as illustrated in Fig. 1(d). Since annealed Ti6Al4V alloy is a typical isotropic material, only machining properties on the top surface were considered. Because the postmachining of AMed components is generally deemed semi-finishing or finishing operations, the feed rate varies within a small range to ensure themachined surface quality. Since AM technology has the advantage of near-net forming, the axial depth of cut remains a small constant value to ensure a lower amount of removal.

The puckered cylinder (a) Geometry We consider a very long sheet rolled into the shape of a circular cylinder of radius R. The lateral ends of the sheet are glued to each other, and the resulting long cylindrical Proc. R. Soc. A (2005) sheet is then introduced into a cylinder of radius b < R as shown in figure 3. The excess length of the sheet causes it to pucker with a natural dimensionless control parameter to describe the packing in this system given by \u03b52 = (R \u2212 b) b . (3.1) Assuming that the deformation of the sheet is cylindrical, the position vector describing the sheet can be written as r(s, z) = v(s) + ze3, (3.2) where v(s) = v1(s)e1 + v2(s)e2, s is the arc length of the two-dimensional curve defined by v(s) and z is the length along the axis of the cylinder (see figure 3a). We observe that this class of one-dimensional deformations automatically satisfies the Gauss\u2013Codazzi relations (2.12). The metric tensor associated with this deformation is gss = 1, gsz = 0, gzz = 1, and the orthonormal vector triad describing the surface is t1 = t, t2 = e3, n = t \u00d7 e3. (3.3) Here t = \u2202sv is the tangent and n is the oriented normal to the planar curve that completely describes the cylindrical sheet. In terms of the angle \u03c6 between t and the horizontal (figure 3b), we have t = cos \u03c6e1 + sin\u03c6e2 and n = sin\u03c6e1 \u2212 cos \u03c6e2. The components of the curvature tensor are given by bss = \u03ba, bzz = bsz = 0, where \u03ba = \u2212n \u00b7 \u2202st = \u03c6\u0307 is the curvature of the planar curve shown in figure 3. Here and elsewhere, we use the notation \u02d9(\u00b7) \u2261 \u2202s(\u00b7). The lines z = const. and s = const. are the lines of curvature for all possible deformations, so that the geodesic torsion \u03c4 = 0 identically. Therefore, msz = mzs = 0. Since the normal curvature along the line s = const. is zero, mss = B\u03ba, mzz = B\u03c3\u03ba. Finally, torque equilibrium in the n-direction yields Nsz = Nzs. Here we see an example where the local torques and forces are symmetric. (b) Mechanical equilibrium In the absence of any frictional interactions with the confining cylinder the external force must be along the normal so that K = \u2212kn (k > 0)", "7) The first two correspond to force balance in the tangential and normal directions, while the last equation is a consequence of torque equilibrium. By using the relation (3.7) in (3.5) we can integrate it once so that Nss + B\u03ba2/2 = \u2212Ba2, where a2 is a constant of integration. Substituting the result in equation (3.6) yields B[\u03ba\u0308 + (a2 + 1 2\u03ba2)\u03ba] = k(s), (3.8) which, together with appropriate boundary conditions, describes the equilibrium shape of the Elastica of Euler. For the confined cylindrical sheet shown in figure 3, the radius of curvature is constant and equal to the radius of the external cylinder \u03ba = 1/b in the region where the sheet is in contact with the rigid cylinder. Therefore, it follows from (3.8) that k = kc = const. in this region. Furthermore, in the contact region \u03ba\u0307 = 0 so that (3.7) implies Qs = 0 and (3.6) implies Nss = \u2212bkc, i.e. the sheet is under purely normal compression due to confinement.

Several 2-dimensional manifolds of IIM-type singularities are attached to the 3-dimensional set. One of these can be obtained from the con\u00aeguration shown in Fig. 7 by rotating the moving platform about the line BC (and varying the elevation of points B and C). The second component is 1-dimensional and consists of con\u00aegurations like the one in Fig. 8, where the three supporting legs are fully extended and the two platforms are in the same plane. (2) RPM-type singularities From Equation (11) it is evident that L\u00c3 p is singular only when either mB 1 or mC 1 are zero, i.e. when either B or C are on the axis of the \u00aerst-joint screw of the corresponding subchain. Each of these two conditions corresponds to a set of 15 con\u00aegurations. They intersect in a 4-dimensional set. (3) Classi\u00aecation of {1} [ {2} (3.1) It can be observed that in all existing singularities of {1} the rank of L decreases by only one, while the rank of L\u00c3 O decreases by at least two", " From condition (iv), it follows that an element of {1} is an II-type singularity if and only if the 6 6 matrix L\u00c3 I has a null-space dimension of at least two. Next, we check whether this condition is satis\u00aeed for the di erent IIM-type singularities as determined in Step (1). For all the 13 con\u00aegurations of the type shown in Fig. 6, where for all three serial subchains point P is on the SP 1 axis, the condition is satis\u00aeed since mB 1 and mC 1 are zero vectors. For the IIM-type con\u00aegurations with three extended legs (as in Fig. 8) the condition is not satis\u00aeed. If only two subchains are singular (similar to Fig. 7), the condition is always satis\u00aeed when the singular subchains are B and C (as in the \u00aegure). When, however, one of the singular subchains is A, then, generally, the matrix A is of rank 5. There are two exceptions. The \u00aerst is represented in Fig. 9, where the singular subchains are A and B and additionally the point Co lies in the plane ABC. The second exception is shown in Fig. 10, where not only points B and C are located on screws SB 1 and SC 1 , but also point A lies in the (vertical) plane de\u00aened by the two screws. Each of Figs 9 and 10 represents, in fact 11 con\u00aegurations, since the elevation of point A can vary. Thus, the set of singularities belonging to the IIM, IO and II types consists of a main 3- dimensional set (Fig. 6), a 2-dimensional set (Fig. 7) and two 1-dimensional sets (Figs 9 and 10). The set of singularities in the IIM and IO types has two 2-dimensional components (similar to Fig. 7. with subchain A as one of the singular ones) and a 1-dimensional component (Fig. 8). (3.2) According to condition (i) and Equation (13), a con\u00aeguration is an RI-type singularity if and only if at least one of the following conditions is satis\u00aeed: either the subchain A is singular (in any way); or subchain B is fully extended; or subchain C is fully extended. Condition (ii) and Equation (12) imply that an RPM-singularity is also of the RO-type in the following three cases: (a) When C is on the SC 1 axis and the plane ABC is perpendicular to mC 2 (Fig. 10 is an example, though subchain B need not be singular)", " (e) (IIM, IO, II, RPM, RI, RO) has 11 con\u00aegurations in two 1-dimensional sets. The \u00aerst is represented by the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 9. It is similar to Fig. 7 with singular subchains A and B, but point Co is in the plane ABC, allowing for a RO-singularity. The second set is similar to the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 9, however, the non-singular subchain must be B rather than A.

However, the general rules do form the basis of a design procedure, which will be described later in this chapter. Tip Interference There is a second type of interference which can occur in an internal gear pair. Figure 12.6 shows the path followed, relative to the internal gear, by point AT1 on the tooth tip of the pinion. This curve is called a hypotrochoid, and it touches the tooth profile of the internal gear at its limit circle. In a well-designed gear pair, the path of AT1 lies within the tooth space of the internal gear, as shown in Tip Interference 273 Figure 12.6. However, in certain circumstances, the path of AT1 passes through the corner of the internal gear tooth, and this phenomenon is known as tip interference. It is obvious that when tip interference takes place, the gear pair is unusable. The shape of the path followed by point AT1 is a convex curve. It is because the teeth of the internal gear are concave that tip interference can occur.

The backlash B' can be measured directly with a feeler-gauge, or by means of a dial gauge, as shown in Figure 4.16. The gauge is positioned so that its moveable arm lies along a base circle tangent of one of the gears. If this gear is rocked while the other gear is held fixed, the displacement measured by the dial gauge is then equal to the backlash along the common normal. 108 Contact Ratio, Interference and Backlash Numerical Examples Example 4.1 A gear pair has a module of 8 mm, a pressure angle of 20\u00b0, and a center distance of 453 mm.

Right-handed hob and right-handed gear.", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "The most commonly used method for cutting helical gears is by hobbing. As always in generating cutting, one gear is used to cut another. A typical hob is shown in Figure 16.3, and it can be seen that, apart from the gashes forming the cutting faces, the hob is simply a helical gear, in which each tooth is referred to as a thread. A hob. 458 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears Since the hob is similar in shape to a screw, its helix angle \"'sh is always large, particularly when there is only one thread. It is cust~mary to specify the shape of a hob by means of its lead angle, rather than its helix angle. For a right-handed hob, the lead angle Ash is defined as the complement of the helix angle, (16.13) where Ash and \"'sh are measured in degrees. For a left-handed hob, whose helix angle is negative, the lead angle can be def ined as follows, - 90 0 - '\" sh ( 16.14) so that we obtain a negative lead angle for a left-handed hob. In practice, it is generally the magnitude of the lead angle which is given in the specification, together with a statement to indicate whether the hob is right or left-handed. It is clear that the lead angle can be determined from the helix angle, and vice versa. In describing the geometry of the hobbing process, we will specify the shape of the hob by means of its helix angle, since the symbols will then agree with the notation used in Chapter 15, where we described the geometry of crossed helical gears. Figure 16.4 shows a hob in position to cut a gear blank, and since their axes are not parallel, it is clear that they form a crossed helical gear pair. During the cutting process, the hob and the gear blank are rotated about their axes with angular veloci ties wh and wg ' I n order to cut the teeth of the gear across the entire face-width, the hob is moved slowly in the direction of the gear axis, and the velocity of the hob center is called the feed velocity vh . The values required for the three variables wh ' Wg and vh are achieved by means of change gears or stepping motors in the hobbing machine. There are two additional settings which must be made when the hobbing machine is being set up. These are the shaft angle ~, which is the angle between the axes of the hob and the gear blank, and the cutting center Hobbing 459 distance CC, which is the distance between the two axes. In the remainder of this section, we will determine the values required for the machine parameters wh ' wg ' vh ' E and CC, if the hob is to cut a gear with Ng teeth, normal module mn , normal pressure angle ~ns' helix angle ~sg' and normal tooth thickness t nsg Before we discuss the details of the cutting process, we will first prove that, as usual, the gear will have the same normal module and normal pressure angle as those of the hob. We showed in Chapter 15 that the minimum condition for correct meshing of two crossed helical gears is that their normal base pitches should be equal. The corresponding result, when we consider a gear being cut by a hob, is that the normal base pitch of the gear will always be equal to that of the hob. Since the normal base pitch of the hob is equal to that of the basic rack, we can conclude that the normal base pitches of the gear and the basic rack are equal, and the gear can therefore mesh correctly with the basic rack. As always, the standard pitch cylinder of the gear is defined as its pitch cylinder when it is meshed with the basic rack. The normal pitch Pns and the normal pressure angle ~ns of the gear must 460 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears then be equal to those of the basic rack, and hence equal to those of the hob. This result remains true, whether or not the cutting pitch cylinders of the gear and the hob coincide with the i r standard pi tch cylinders. In order to cut the gear described earlier, we must therefore use a hob with the same normal module and normal pressure angle as those specified for the gear. We consider next how to cut the required number of teeth, and the correct helix angle. When a rack cutter is used to cut a gear, the helix angle of the gear depends on the angle at which the cutter is set, so it might be expected that the helix angle of a gear being hobbed would be determined by the value of the shaft angle ~. This is not the case, however, and we will now show that the number of teeth cut in the gear blank, and the helix angle at which they are cut, depend only on the values chosen for wh ' Wg and vh \u2022 In Chapter 5, we defined the cutting point as the point where the cutter makes a cut on the final tooth surface, and we showed that this point corresponds to the contact point when the gear blank and the cutter are regarded as a pair of meshing gears. The situation is no different when the cutter is a hob. We described in Chapter 15 how to find the position of the contact point in a crossed helical gear pair, and this point becomes the cutting point when we consider a hob cutting a gear. As in any metal-cutting process, the shape of each tooth cut in a gear blank is the envelope of positions through which the hob moves, relative to the gear blank. For the purpose of determining this shape, it is helpful to neglect the gashes in the hob thread, so that the threads are regarded as continuous, and we can imagine that the teeth are formed in the gear blank by grinding, rather than by cutting. If the hob and the gear blank were a pair of crossed helical gears, there would always be at least one thread of the hob making contact with the gear. Hence, for the hob and the gear blank, there is always at least one thread which is in contact with the final tooth surface of the gear. We label the points in contact AOh on the hob, and AOg on the gear. After the hob turns through exactly one angular pitch, the position of the thread containing point AOh is occupied by the Hobbing 461 next thread, and the corresponding point Alh on this thread will now be the cutting point, touching a point A1g on the gear tooth adjacent to the tooth containing AOg. As the hob rotates, we can identify a sequence of points such as AOh and Alh on the hob threads, and AOg and A1g on the gear teeth. The points on the hob lie in the same transverse section and are evenly spaced, at angular intervals equal to the angular pitch. Of course, if the hob has only one thread, the angular pitch is 360 0 , and the points all coincide. On the other hand, the gear points do not lie in one transverse section, due to the feed of the hob in the direction of the gear axis, and each point is displaced axially a small amount relative to the next point. We now consider the position on the gear of point ANg , the cutting point when the hob has turned through Ng angular pitches. Since the gear is to have Ng teeth, points AOg and ANg must be on the same tooth. Hence, if the gear is a spur gear, ANg must lie on the axial line through AOg' while if the gear is a helical gear, ANg must lie on the gear helix through AOg. The distance through which the hob is fed during one revolution of the gear blank is called the feed rate f. Since the magnitude of f is small compared with the tooth dimensions, point ANg always lies close to the axial line through AOg. The gear blank must therefore turn through approximately one revolution while the hob turns through Ng angular pitches, which is a rotation equal to (Ng/Nh ) revolutions. In order to meet this requirement, the angular velocity ratio (wh/wg ) must be approximately equal to (Ng/Nh ), or exactly equal, when a spur gear is being cut. In the case of a helical gear, the small difference between the two ratios is one of the factors which determine the helix angle of the gear, as we will show later in this section. Once the settings are chosen for the hobbing machine, the value of (wh/wg ) is established, and the number of teeth that will be cut in the gear is then given by the following expression, NhWh Integer closest to (--) Wg (16.15) 462 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears Having found how the value of Ng depends on the hobbing machine angular velocities wh and wg ' we now consider the helix angle. If points AOg and A1g lie at radius R, the positions of these points at various times can be plotted on a developed cylinder of radius R, as shown in Figure 16.5. The times at which the hob touches points AOg and A1g are called T and T', and the diagram shows the positions of AOg at time T, and A1g at time T'. Since the feed of the hob is in the direction of the gear axis, the line in the diagram joining AOg and A1g is in the same direction. The diagram also shows the gear helices through these points, which appear as straight lines making an angle ~Rg with the gear axis, and these are labelled helix 0 and helix 1. The point on helix 0 in the transverse section through A1g is labelled Ag \u2022 The position of helix 0 at time T' is shown by the dotted line, and the positions of Aog and Ag at this time are shown as AOg and Ag \u2022 In Figure 16.5, the length AOgA1g represents the hob feed between the times T and T', and AgAg represents the arc Hobbing 463 length moved by point Ag in the same time interval. Since helix 0 and helix 1 are gear helices on adjacent teeth at the same radius, their positions at any instant are exactly one tooth pitch apart. A1g and Ag lie on the two helices in their positions at time T', so the distance between these points is equal to the transverse pitch. We therefore obtain the following expressions for the three lengths, A A' 9 9 A A' 19 9 The time interval required for the hob to rotate through one angular pitch can be expressed in terms of the hob angular velocity, T' - T We now use triangle AOgA1gAg to relate the three lengths, A A' - A A' 19 9 9 9 and when their values are substituted, we obtain the following relation between wh ' Wg and vh ' 211' vh -N-- tan l/IR hWh 9 ( 16.16) The feed rate f of the hob was defined earlier as the distance moved by the hob during one revolution of the gear blank. It is customary to express the feed velocity vh in terms of f, _f_ (211') Wg (16.17) and with this substitution, Equation (16.16) takes the following form, tan l/IRg 211'R ( 16.18) 464 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears The helix angle of the gear at radius R is expressed in terms of the lead Lg by Equation (13.31), tan IPRg and Equation (16.18) then becomes a relation giving the lead that will be cut in the gear, l(NhWh ) f - Ng Wg ( 16.19) The quantity (Ng/Lg) is equal to the reciprocal of the axial pitch, as we showed in Equation (13.36), and this can be expressed in terms of the helix angle IPsg by means of Equation (13.42), _1_ Pzg sin IPSg Pns (16.20) Hence, Equation (16.19) can be put into two alternative forms, giving either the axial pitch or the helix angle of the gear, _1_ Pzg l(NhWh ) f - Ng Wg (16.21 ) (16.22) It is an interesting result that, as we pointed out earlier, the helix angle cut in a gear is not affected by the shaft angle ~ of the hobbing machine. This angle is generally set equal to the standard shaft angle ~s' or in other words, equal to the sum of the helix angles of the gear and the hob, ~s (16.23) We showed in Chapter 15 that a pair of crossed helical gears can mesh correctly, even when the shaft angle is not equal to the standard shaft angle. It therefore follows that a hob can cut an accurate involute gear, even when ~ is not exactly equal to ~s. However, for the remainder of this section, we will assume that the shaft angle is set equal to ~s' and in a Hobbing 465 later section of the chapter we will discuss the consequences of a small change in this value. The last setting of the hobbing machine to be considered is the cutting center distance CC , and its effect on the tooth thickness of the gear. As we discussed earlier, the cutting process can be considered as equivalent to meshing with zero backlash. An expression for the normal backlash in a crossed helical gear pair was given in Equation (15.96), The length ~Cp Equation (15.47), in this expression (16.24) was defined by (16.25) and all the other quanti ties are defined on the pitch cylinders, as indicated by the notation. We are considering, at present, a hob cutting a gear blank when the shaft angle ~ is set equal to the standard value ~s. In this case the cutting pitch cylinders coincide with the standard pitch cylinders, as we proved in Chapter 15. If we replace RP1 and Rp2 in Equation (16.25) by Rsg and Rsh ' and set the backlash in Equation (16.24) equal to zero, these two equations give an expression for the normal tooth thickness cut in the gear, (16.26) The expression in brackets in this relation represents the hob offset. When the normal tooth thickness t h of the hob is ns equal to O.5Pns' Equation (16.26) has exactly the same form as Equation (16.12), which gave the normal tooth thickness of a gear cut by a rack cutter. If the normal tooth thickness of the hob is greater than O.5Pns' the normal tooth thickness of the gear is reduced by the same amount. Whatever the value of t nsh ' the effect of a change in the hob offset on the tooth thickness of the gear is identical to the corresponding effect caused by a change in the offset of a rack cutter. In Chapter 5, we stated that the tooth thickness of a gear cut by 466 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears a hob is generally calculated as if the gear were cut by a rac k cutter. We have now shown that thi s procedure is essentially correct, prpvided the hobbing machine is set with its shaft angle ~ equal to the standard value ~s' There is a second manner in which the cutting action of a hob resembles that of a rack cutter. In the discussion following Equations (15.74 and 15.77), we showed that the path of contact in a crossed helical gear pair touches each base cylinder, and makes an angle (~- 'tp1) with the line of centers, when viewed in the direction of the axis of gear 1. Hence, in the case of a hob cutting a gear, the path followed by the cutting point touches the base cylinders of the gear and the hob, and makes an angle (~- 'tpg) with the line of centers, when viewed in the direction of the gear axis. If the shaft angle is set at the standard value, this angle becomes (1[2 - 't ), as shown in Figure 16.6, and the path of the sg . cutting point then appears identical with the corresponding path when the gear is cut by a rack cutter. It is for this reason that, when we check for undercutting in a gear, we can regard the hob as equivalent to a rack cutter. We check that Swivel Angle 467 there would be no undercutting if the gear was cut by the rack cutter, and this implies that there will also be no undercutting when in fact the hob is used. Swi vel Angle Earlier in this chapter, we stated that it is common practice to specify the lead angle of a hob, instead of its helix angle. It is also customary to specify the angular setting of the hobbing machine by means of the swivel angle, rather than by the shaft angle. Since a hob is shaped like a screw, its helix angle is always large, particularly in the case of a single-thread hob, for which the helix angle is typically about 85\u00b0. The helix angle of the gear being cut may of course have any value, but in the majority of gears, the magnitude of the helix angle is between 0\u00b0 and 30\u00b0. In general, right-handed hobs are used to cut right-handed gears, and left-handed hobs are used for left-handed gears. In most cases, therefore, the shaft angle is approximately equal to a right angle, and the swivel angle is defined as the amount by which the shaft angle differs from a right angle. For example, if the axis of the gear is vertical during the cutting process, the swivel angle a is defined as the angle which the hob axis makes with the 468 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears horizontal. The standard shaft angle was defined by Equation (16.23), as the sum of the gear and the hob helix angles. We express the helix angle of the hob in terms of its lead angle, by means of Equation (16.13 or 16.14), and we obtain the following expression for the standard shaft angle, ,f, + 90\u00b0 - A \"'sg - sh (16.27) where the plus and minus signs refer to a right or Hobbing Machine Gear Train Layout 469 left-handed hob. We now define the standard swivel angle os' so that it differs by a right angle from the standard shaft angle, (16.28) As discussed earlier, the hobbing machine is generally set so that the shaft angle is equal to the standard shaft angle, and it then follows that the swivel angle is equal to the standard swivel angle. Figures 16.7 and 16.8 show the relations between the shaft angles and the swivel angles when a right-handed hob is used to cut a spur gear or a right-handed helical gear, while Figures 16.9 and 16.10 show the corresponding relations when a left-handed hob is used to cut a spur gear or a left-handed helical gear. Hobbing Machine Gear Train Layout We showed in Equations (16.15 and 16.22) that the number of teeth and the helix angle cut in a gear depend on the feed rate f and the angular velocity ratio (wh/wg ) in the hobbing machine, NhWh Integer closest to (----) Wg (16.29) 470 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears sin I/I sg l(NhWh ) f - Ng Wg (16.30) It is helpful to examine how the gear trains in some typical hobbing machines are arranged, in order to achieve the values of Ng and I/I sg required in the gear. One type of hobbing machine is shown schematically in Figure 16.11. The rectangular boxes in the diagram represent gear pairs or gear trains, with the output-input ratio in each case given by the constant k. The symbol ki stands for the ratio of the index change gears, kf is the ratio of the feed change gears, and the other k values represent the gear trains built into the machine, whose ratios cannot be altered by the user. The values of wh and wg , and of the hob feed velocity vh ' can be read from the diagram in terms of the input angular velocity w 1 ' (16.31) (16.32) Hobbing Machine Gear Train Layout 471 (16.33) The feed rate f was given by Equation (16.17), in terms of Wg and vh ' and when these are expressed by means of Equations (16.32 and 16.33), we obtain a relation between the feed rate and some of the gear ratios in the hobbing machine, f The terms in brackets are combined into a single constant, known as the machine feed constant Cf , whose value is provided by the manufacturer of the hobbing machine. The feed rate is then expressed solely as a function of the ratio kf of the feed change gears, f (16.34) To obtain the ratio (wh/wg ) in terms of the hobbing machine gear ratios, we express wh and Wg by means of Equations (16.31 and 16.32), As before, the terms in brackets are combined into another constant, the machine index constant Ci , whose value is also provided by the manufacturer, and the angular velocity ratio is then given by the following expression, C\u00b7 1 k.\" 1 (16.35) We substitute this expression into Equations (16.29 and 16.30), and we obtain the number of teeth that will be cut in the gear, and its helix angle, in terms of the hobbing machine gear ratios, NhC. Integer closest to ( __ l) k i (16.36) {16.37l We now determine how the machine ratios should be 472 Gear Cutting I I, Helical Gears chosen, in order to cut a gear with the number of teeth and helix angle required. The feed rate f and the hob angular velocity wh are chosen to obtain good metal-cutting characteristics. The values depend on the size of the hob, the hardness of the material being cut, and the surface finish required. For more details, the reader should consult references such as the Gear Handbook [2]. Once a value for f is. chosen, the required ratio kf for the feed change gears is found from Equation (16.34), f Cf (16.38) The value chosen for wh is obtained by setting the input speed change, shown in Figure 16.11, to a suitable value. With the feed change gear ratio already selected, the index change gear ratio is used to determine both the number of teeth cut in the gear, and its helix angle. We choose the ratio ki so that it satisfies Equation (16.37), in order to obtain the required helix angle, NhCi ki f sin ~Sg (16.39) (1rm + N ) n g When this value for ki is substituted into Equation (16.36), we find that we also obtain the correct number of teeth, because the magnitude of the term (f sin ~Sg/1rmn) in the expression for ki is always very much less than 0.5. It is sometimes difficult to find change gears which provide exactly the value of ki given by Equation (16.39). Once the change gears have been chosen, their actual ratio ki should be calculated, and this value is substituted into Equation (16.37), to give the helix angle that will in fact be cut in the gear. Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine There is one major problem associated with hobbing machines, when they are designed in the manner shown in Figure 16.11. If a second cut is required, as is often the case, it is necessary to disconnect the feed drive, in order Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine 473 to return the hob quickly to its starting position. It is then very difficult to reset the machine, with the work table and the hob in exactly the correct positions. This problem can be overcome if a differential is incorporated into the hobbing machine. In order to determine the relation that must be maintained between the hob feed, the work table rotation and the hob rotation, we once again consider Equation (16.30), We use Equation (16.17) to express the hob feed rate f in terms of the feed velocity vh ' and we obtain the relation which must be maintained throughout the cutting process between the hob feed velocity, the table angular velocity, and the hob angular veloci ty, (16.40) A gear train with one degree of freedom can always be represented by a linear equation relating the angular velocities of the input and the output shafts. A differential is a gear train with two degrees of freedom, and it has three shafts, either two input and one output, or one input and two output. The angular velocities of the three shafts are always related by a single linear equation. Hence, as we can see from Equation (16.40), if the hob feed, the work table drive and the hob drive were all connected to the three shafts of a suitable differential, they would then always maintain the correct relative positions. The differential may be a simple planetary gear train, or one which is constructed of bevel gears. In either case, the output angular velocity w3 is a linear combination of the input angular velocities w1 and w2 ' and can therefore be represented by the following equation, (16.41) The constants k7 and ka of the differential depend on the design of the gear train, and need not concern us here. 474 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears The complete layout of the hobbing machine is shown in Figure 16.12, where the differential is represented as a simple planetary gear train. The hob drive is connected to the sun gear of the differential, the table drive is connected to the planet carrier, and the feed is connected to the internal gear. As before, the index change gears and the feed change gears are represented by symbols ki and kf , and now there is a third set of change gears, the differential change gears, represented by the symbol kd \u2022 The constants k1 to k6 are the fixed ratios of the gear trains in the hobbing machine. The constant k6 represents the ratio of a worm and gear, connecting the differential change gears to the internal gear of the differential. This ratio is shown with a minus sign, since the hand of the helix in the worm is chosen so that a positive angular velocity in the worm produces a negative angular veloci ty in the gear. We pointed out earlier that the number of teeth and the helix angle cut in the gear depend on the feed rate f and the Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine 475 angular velocity ratio (wh/wg ). We therefore need to express these two quantities in terms of the hobbing machine gear ratios. We start by writing down a number of relations between the angular velocities, Wh k1w1 (16.42) Wg k2ki k3w3 (16.43) vh k2kik4kfw3 (16.44) w 2 k2kik4kfkd(-k6)w3 (16.45) The feed rate f, which was given by Equation (16.17), can now be expressed in terms of the gear ratios, f As before, the terms in brackets are combined into a single quantity, the machine feed constant Cf , and the feed rate is then given simply in terms of the feed change gear ratio, f (16.46) When Equations (16.42 and 16.43) are used to express wh and wg ' the angular velocity ratio takes the following form, wh k1w1 Wg k2k3kiw3 and the relation between w 1 and w3 is found from Equations (16.41 and 16.45), The last two equations are combined to give the angular velocity ratio in terms of the gear ratios, and we use Equation (16.46) to express the ratio kf in terms of the feed rate f, (16.47) 476 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears We now define the machine index constant Ci and the machine di fferent ial constant Cd as follows, C. 1 k1 k2 k3k7 k3 k7Cf k1k4 k6kS As usual, the values of the machine constants Cf ' Ci and Cd are all provided by the manufacturer of the hobbing machine. Ci is a ratio, but Cf and Cd are lengths, since they are defined in terms of the feed rate f, which is the distance moved by the hob during one revolution of the work table. When the constants are substituted into Equation (16.47), we obtain the final expression for the angular velocity ratio, (16.4S) This expression is substituted into Equations (16.29 and 16.30), and we obtain the number of teeth and the helix angle that will be cut in the gear, corresponding to the feed rate f and the change gear ratios ki and kd in the hobbing machine, C\u00b7 fkd Integer closest to [Nh(k: + c)] 1 d (16.49) (16.50) Once again, we must determine how the change gear ratios kf , k i and kd should be chosen, in order to cut a gear with Ng teeth and helix angle ~sg' As before, we choose the feed rate f from metal-cutting considerations, and the ratio kf is then given by Equation (16.46), (16.51) If we are cutting a spur gear, or in other words a gear with zero helix angle, we can satisfy Equation (16.50) by setting the value of kd equal to zero, and choosing the value of ki as follows, Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine k. 1 477 (16.52) The conventional method for cutting a helical gear is to use the same value for ki , and to choose kd in a manner which then satisfies Equation (16.50), Cd sin IPsg Nh '/I'mn (16.53) An alternative expression for the required differential change gear ratio is found by combining Equations (16.20 and 16.53), (16.54) When we compare the last two equations, it is clear that it is much easier to select suitable change gears, giving the correct value for kd , if we design the gear so that its axial pitch Pzg is a round number, rather than its helix angle IPsg. There are times when it is difficult, or even impossible, to find change gears which provide the exact values for ki and kd , given by Equations (16.52 and 16.53). For example, when the value required for Ng is a large prime number, we cannot obtain the exact value for ki , since most sets of change gears do not contain gears with more than 120 teeth. Also, when the helix angle ~sg is very small, it may be difficult to obtain a sufficiently accurate value for kd \u2022 When these situations occur, we can choose the index gears so that their ratio ki differs slightly from the value given by Equation (16.52), and the differential change gears are then used to ensure that Equation (16.50) is still satisfied with sufficient accuracy. Since the index change gear ratio is close to the value given by Equation (16.52), it can be represented by an expression with the following form, k. 1 (16.55) where the quantity ~ may be either positive or negative. This expression for ki is substituted into Equation (16.50), and we obtain the corresponding value of the differential change gear ratio required to cut the correct helix angle, 478 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears (16.56) We have determined the values of ki and kd in a manner that satisfies Equation (16.50), so we know that the correct helix angle will be cut. It is now necessary to substitute the values of ki and kd into Equation (16.49), in order to confirm that the gear will also be cut with the correct number of teeth. The expressions for ki and kd given by Equations (16.55 and 16.56) are substituted into the right-hand side of Equation (16.49), with the following result, (16.57) As we pointed earlier, the magni tude of the term (f sin ~sg/wmn) is always less than 0.5, so with these values of ki and kd , the number of teeth cut in the gear will indeed be equal to the number required. The change gear ratios given be Equations (16.55 and 16.56) can be used for cutting either helical or spur gears, whenever it is difficult to obtain the values given by Equations (16.52 and 16.53). It is interesting that the quantity a has cancelled out from the expression in Equation (16.57). This means that there is no theoretical limit to the value of a which can be used, and the ratio ki may therefore differ considerably from the value given by Equation (16.52). In practice, however, it is usually easier to select the differential change gears to obtain an accurate value for kd , if the index gears are chosen so that their ratio is close to the value given by Equation (16.52), and the magnitude of a is therefore small compared wi th 1. It is evident that a differential is useful in the design of a hobbing machine, since it facilitates the selection of the necessary change gears. However, the original purpose for which the differential was introduced, as we discussed earlier in the chapter, was to maintain the correct relation between the hob feed, the work table rotation and the hob rotation, during a rapid return of the hob to its starting position. Figure 16.13 shows how this purpose is achieved. The drive is disconnected, by means of a dog clutch, between the feed change gears and the feed drive. An auxiliary motor, Theoretically Correct Shape for the Hob Thread 479 known as the hob rapid traverse motor, is then used to drive the hob feed. The drive passes through the di fferent ial, causing the work table to turn at exactly the correct speed, so that the helical teeth in the gear mesh continuously with the threads of the hob. During the entire return motion of the hob, only a very small rotation of the table is required, compared with the many revolutions that take place while the gear is being cut. Hence, the return of the hob can be carried out quite quickly, without damage to the gearing driving the work table. Theoretically Correct Shape for the Hob Thread We stated in Chapter 5 that a hob whose thread profile is straight-s;ded in the normal section will not cut exact involute tooth profiles. We are now in a position to estimate the amount of error, and to determine the correct normal 480 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears profile in the hob thread. In Chapter 15, we proved that two involute helical gears can mesh with crossed axes, and maintain a constant angular velocity ratio. The hobbing process is essentially the same as the meshing of a pair of crossed helical gears. It therefore follows that, in order to cut correct involute profiles in the gear, the thread of the hob must also have the shape of an involute helicoid. In other words, the thread has an involute profile in the transverse section. The corresponding profile in the normal section is a convex curve, and not a straight line. However, because the helix angle of a hob is so large, the profile in the normal section is extremely close to the straight line. Hence, when a straight-sided hob is used to cut gears, the resulting error in the gear tooth profiles is generally small. We can estimate this error in the following manner. We described a method in Chapter 13 for calculating the profile of the normal section through a helicoid. We now use this method to find the profile of the normal section through the hob thread. We calculate the distances, at the thread tip and at the top of the fillet, between this profile and its tangent at the standard pitch cylinder, as shown in Figure 16.14. The profile of a straight-sided hob would coincide with this tangent, and a hob of that type would therefore cut too deeply into the teeth of the gear, in the regions near the fillet and near the tip. Figure 16.15 shows the normal section through an Effect of a Non-Standard Shaft Angle 481 exact involute helicoid tooth, and it also shows the profile we obtain when the gear is cut by a straight-sided hob. The maximum differences between the two profiles are approximately equal to the distances described earlier, by which the normal section profile of the involute hob deviates from the straight line. As we can see in Figure 16.15, the tooth shape cut by a straight-sided hob is similar to the shape of a tooth cut with tip and root relief. The errors caused by the use of a straight-sided hob are therefore sometimes beneficial, and this is one of the reasons for the continued use of straight-sided hobs, when true involute hobs are also readily obtainable. There are times, however, when the errors caused by straight-sided hobs may be excessive. This is often the case for gears cut by multi-thread hobs, or by single-thread hobs of large module, whose helix angles are usually less than 85\u00b0. Whenever there is a possibility that a straight-sided hob may cut too much tip and root relief in a gear, the procedure just described can be used to determine whether a true involute hob should be used. Effect of a Non-Standard Shaft Angle In an earlier section of this chapter, we described how to calculate the tooth thickness cut in a gear, when the shaft angle ~ of the hobbing machine is set equal to the standard value ~s. We stated at that time that we would still obtain a 482 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears correct involute profile in the gear tooth, even if the values of E and Es wer~ not the same. The only effect of the altered shaft angle is a change in the tooth thickness, and we will now discuss briefly how the new tooth thickness can be found. Since it is not generally necessary to make this calculation, we will simply outline the steps, without presenting all the equations. When the shaft angle is not equal to its standard value, the cutting pitch cylinders of the gear and the hob do not coincide with their standard pitch cylinders. The first step is therefore to calculate the cutting pitch cylinder radii R~g and R~h. Knowing the normal thread thickness t nsh of the hob at its standard pitch cylinder, we then calculate its normal thread thickness t nph at the cutting pitch cylinder. To find the normal tooth thickness cut in the gear, we regard the hobbing process as the meshing of a crossed helical gear pair with zero backlash. An expression was given in Equation (15.96) for the normal backlash in a crossed helical gear pair, The length ~cp in this equation was defined by Equation (15.47), as the difference between the center distance and the sum of the pitch cylinder radii. For the situation of a hob cutting a gear, ~cp would represent the difference between the cutting center distance and the sum of the cutting pitch cylinder radii, We combine these equations, and set the backlash Bn equal to zero, to obtain the normal tooth thickness t npg cut in the gear. The final step is to calculate the corresponding normal tooth thickness t nsg of the gear at its standard pi tch cylinder. If we carry out this calculation, we will find that the normal tooth thickness t nsg cut in the gear is almost independent of the shaft angle E. In other words, the tooth thickness is hardly affected by a small change in the shaft Geometric Design of a Helical Gear Pair 483 angle, provided of course that the cutting center distance is left unchanged. However, the radii of the cutting pitch cylinders are very sensitive to the shaft angle value. In particular, a small change in the value of ~ can move the cutting pitch cylinder of the hob right off the surface of the hob thread. In the absence of experimental evidence, it is not certain what effect this may have on the tooth surface quality. Therefore, although the shaft angle need not theoretically be set equal to its standard value, it is nevertheless recommended that in practice this value should continue to be used. Geometric Design of a Helical Gear Pair In the final section of this chapter, we outline a procedure by which we can choose the helix angle, the profile shift values and the gear blank diameters, for a pair of helical gears intended to mesh on parallel shafts at an arbi trary center di stance C. Since the standard center distance depends on the helix angle, (16.58) it would appear that we can always choose the helix angle so that the standard center distance Cs is equal to the center distance C. In this case, the pitch cylinder of each gear would coincide with its standard pitch cylinder. However, as we will show, it is not always practical to choose the helix angle in this manner, and there is no particular advantage in doing so. When the gears are cut by a pinion cutter, the helix angle of each gear is equal to that of the cutter, so the choice of ~s is limited by the cutters that are available. When a rack cutter is used to cut the gears, the cutter veloci ty v r and the gear blank angular veloci ty must be related by Equation (16.11), 484 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears This equation must be satisfied exactly, because an incorrect value for vr would result in uneven spacing of the teeth on the gear. However, when ~s is chosen so that Cs is equal to C, it may be impossible to find change gears giving the exact relation between vr and wg \u2022 In general, it is probably easiest to obtain the required helix angle when the gear is cut by a hob, and the differential change gear ratio is given by either Equation (16.53) or Equation (16.56). Even in this case, it may be difficult to find a set of change gears giving a sufficiently small error. The effort required is seldom justified, because a gear pair can be designed quite satisfactorily, assuming only that Cs is approximately equal to C. The procedure is essentially the same as the one described in Chapter 6, for the design of a spur gear pair. For the reasons just outlined, it is generally best to choose the helix angle ~s so that the gears can be cut wi thout difficulty, and at the same time the standard center distance Cs is slightly less than the center distance C. The value of Cs should lie within the range given by Equation (6.14), C (16.59) The design procedure now consists in the choice of suitable profile shift values, and the gear blank diameters, in order to obtain the backlash required, and adaquate values for the working depth and the clearances at each root cylinder. We consider the meshing geometry in a transverse plane, and the design steps are then identical to those used in the design of a spur gear pair. For a helical gear pair, it is customary to specify the normal backlash Bn' rather than the circular backlash B. It is therefore necessary to calculate a number of the gear parameters in the transverse plane, before we can consider the transverse plane geometry.

We use the method described in Chapter 6, and in particular Equations (6.45 - 6.53), to carry out the necessary steps. Since the procedure was explained in Chapter 6, the equations will be presented here with very little explanation. We start by writing down the transverse tooth thicknesses at the pi tch cylinders, 1 2\"(Ptp-B) + tlttp (16.69) 1 2\"(Ptp -B) - tlttp (16.70) where tlttp is a quantity chosen by the designer, to increase the tooth thickness in one gear, and reduce it in the other.

The differential ratio can be achieved with good accuracy by two gear pairs, having ratios of (24/66) and (59/69). It is not always easy, however, to find change gears which give the required ratio. In the case described in this example, it would have been simpler if the gear pair had been designed with an axial pitch of 40 mm, in which case the required differential change gear ratio would have been exactly (25/80). Example 16.3 When lead screws and other transfer mechanisms are converted from inches to mms, it is sometimes necessary to introduce a factor of 25.4 into their drives. This factor requires a gear with 127 teeth, which is difficult to cut using conventional change gear ratios, because 127 is a prime number, and most sets of change gears do not contain gears with more than 120 teeth. Use Equations (16.55 and 16.56) to choose the ratios to cut a 127-tooth spur gear wi th a single-thread hob, when the hobbing machine has a feed rate of 0.020 inches, and the machine constants Ci and Cd are 24 and 0.5 inches.

Chapter 17 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears Introduction The calculation of the tooth stresses in a helical gear is considerably more complicated than the corresponding calculat ion for a spur gear. The contact stress and the fillet stress in each tooth depend on the intensity of the load, and on its position. Since the load intensity varies, as the position of the contact line moves up or down the tooth face, it is not easy to decide when the maximum stresses will occur. As we pointed out in Chapter 11, we consider in this book only the static stresses that would occur if the gears were not rotating. The actual stresses that exist in normal operation are found by multiplying the static stresses by various factors, to account for dynamic effects, type of loading, and so on. Values for these factors are given in the AGMA Standard referred to in Chapter 11 [6]. The method described in this chapter for calculating the static stresses is based on the AGMA method, but differs from it in certain respects. A summary of the differences will be presented at the end of the chapter. Tooth Contact Force In a helical gear pair, there are generally several tooth pairs which are simultaneously in contact. The contact in each tooth pair takes place along a straight line, which coincides with one of the generators in each tooth. In order to calculate the tooth stresses, we assume that the load intensity w is constant along all the contact lines. The value 490 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears of w at any instant is then equal to the total contact force W, divid.d by the total contact length Lc' w (17.1) In this section of the chapter, we determine the value of W, corresponding to any specified value of the applied torque. And in the following section, we will describe how to calculate the contact length Lc. The direction n~ of the normal to the tooth surface at A, when A is a point on the contact line, was given by Equation (14.94), n~ = cos \"'b [sin t/ltp nx(O) + cos t/ltp ny(O)] - sin \"'b nz(O) (17.2) In the absence of friction, the contact force acts in the direction opposite to n~, and its component parallel to the gear axis is therefore (w sin \"'b). Hence, the component perpendicular to the gear axis, which is the useful component, is equal to (W cos \"'b) \u2022 The base cylinder of gear 1 is shown in Figure 17.1, with Contact Length 491 the plane of action of the contact force touching the base cylinder. The diagram also shows the component of the contact force perpendicular to the gear axis. We take moments about the axis, to obtain a relation between the applied torque M1 and the contact force W, (17.3) and we use the same method to find the corresponding relation between the contact force and the torque M2 appl ied to gear 2, (17.4) The contact force is found from either of these equations. By combining the two equations, we obtain a relation between M1 and M2 , which is the same as Equation (11.3), the corresponding relation between the torques applied to a pair of spur gears. (17.5) Contact Length As we stated earlier, there generally several tooth pairs in contact at any instant, and the contact length Lc is the sum of the contact lengths on each of these tooth pairs. In this section, we will derive a general expression for Lc' It turns out that we do not often need to make use of the general expression, since the cases required for the stress analysis are always special, and therefore simpler. However, it is a matter of interest to have the general result, and it also helps to determine when the maximum and minimum values of Lc occur. A transverse section through the gear pair is shown in Figure 17.2, with the plane of action touching the two base cylinders. As usual, the ends T1 and T2 of the path of contact are the points where the tip cylinders intersect the plane of action. Figure 17.3 shows the plane of action, with the axial lines through T1 and T2 meeting the transverse plane z=O at T10 and T20 , and meeting the transverse plane z=F at T1F and T2F \u2022 The region of contact is the rectangle T10T20T2FT1F. We stated in Chapter 14 that the lines of contact on the different contacting tooth pairs can be represented by a set of diagonal lines in the region of contact, each making an angle \"'b with the gear axis, and with a vertical spacing equal to the transverse base pi tch Ptb. To find the length of the contact lines in the rectangle, it is helpful to construct two additional triangles T'T 10T1F and T10T\"T20 , as shown in Figure 17.3. The value of Lc is then found as the length of the diagonal lines in triangle T' T\"T 2F' minus the lengths in triangles T'T 10T1F and T10T\"T20 \u2022 We proved in Chapter 14 that the lengths T' T 1 F and T 1 F T 2F are equal to mFPtb and mpptb' where mF and mp are the face contact ratio and the profile contact ratio, given by Equations (14.68 and 14.64), _1_ Ptb F tan \"'b (17.6) Contact Length 493 The plane of action. In addition, the length T'T2F is equal to mcptb' where mc is the total contact ratio, equal to the sum of mF and mp , (17.8) In order to find the value of Lc' we first consider a general triangle of height mPtb' where m can represent any of the contact ratios me' mF or mp. This triangle is shown in Figure 17.4, and the upper contact line is shown in a typical position, lying a vertical distance ePtb below the top corner of the triangle, where e is any number between 0 and 1. The number of contact lines in the triangle is equal to 494 Tooth Stresses in Hel ical Gears (n +1), where n represents the integral part of the number e e (m-e). If e is greater than m, there are no contact lines in the triangle, and the value required for ne is -1. We therefore define a function, n int(f) (17.9) where f is any number, and n is the largest integer which is less than or equal to f. If, for example, f has the values 2.2, 1.0 and -0.3, the corresponding values of n are 2, 1 and -1. The val ue of n e can then be expressed by the funct ion, n e int(m-e) (17.10) In the triangle shown in Figure 17.4, the upper contact line has a length (m-w)ptb/sin ~b' The next contact line is shorter than the first by Ptb/sin ~b' and so on. The total contact length Le can therefore be expressed as an arithmetic series, whose sum is given by the following expression, (17.11) We now apply this result to the three triangles in If we use this method to calculate the contact length Lc for various values of e, we will find the following results. Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 495 The value of L is always a minimum when e is zero, and a c contact line passes through the upper corner T10 of the region of contact. And the value of L is a maximum when e is equal to c [mF - int(mF)], and a contact line passes through the other upper corner T1F of the contact region. Minimum and Maximum Values of Lc For the purpose of the stress analysis, we would expect to be most interested in the minimum value of Lc' since this corresponds to the maximum load intensity. Now that we know that the contact length is a minimum when a contact line passes through T10 , it is possible to find simpler expressions for the value Lcmin \u2022 We can simplify the expressions further, if we consider only gear pairs in which every transverse section has either one or two contact points. This condition means that the profile contact ratio lies between the following limits, < 2 (17.16) and this range includes all gear pairs of normal design. In the transverse section shown in Figure 17.2, there are two points Q and Q' marked on the plane of action. Point Q lies a distance Ptb below T l' and Q' lies a distance Ptb above T2\u2022 If the diagram represented a spur gear pair, Q and Q' would be the points on the path of contact corresponding to the ends of the period of single-tooth contact. In a helical gear pair, there is generally no period of single-tooth contact, because the total contact ratio mc is usually larger than 2. However, Q and Q' would represent the ends of the period of single-tooth contact in any particular transverse section, and it is therefore still customary to refer to these points as the end points of single-tooth contact. The region of contact is shown again in Figure 17.5, with the axial lines through Q and Q' cutting the transverse plane z=O a~ QO and QQ' and cutting the transverse plane z=F at QF and Qp.. We have stated that the value of Lc is a minimum when a contact line passes through point T 10. There must simultaneously be a second contact line through QO' since the distance between T10 and QO is equal to the transverse base pitch Ptb' Due to the symmetry of the rectangle, we can also argue that Lc is again a minimum when there are contact lines through T 2F and QF' We now consider a particular gear pair, with the contact lines shown in Figure 17.5. One contact line passes through point T10 , while a second line starts at QO' and intersects the plane z=F at point AF , somewhere between QF and QF' For this situation to be possible, the length mFPtb must be less than (2-mp)ptb' as we can see from the diagram. Such a gear pair is therefore defined by the condition, (17.17) and will be referred to as a very low face contact ratio (VLFCR) gear pair. A spur gear pair, in which the face contact ratio is zero, would fit into this category. The condition given by Equation (17.17) is equivalent to the statement that the total contact ratio mc is less than 2. This means that there are periods of the meshing cycle when only one tooth pair is in contact, which is the situation shown in Figure 17.5. The contact length Lcmin for this case can be read directly from the diagram, L . cmln F cos \"'b (17.18) Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 497 The same region of contact is shown in Figure 17.6, but the contact line has moved up, so that it now passes through point Qp., and a new contact line is about to enter the region at T2F \u2022 During the period when the contact line moves between the positions of Figures 17.5 and 17.6, there is only one tooth pair in contact, and the contact length Lc remains constant, with the value equal to Lcmin given by Equation (17.18). The region of contact for a second gear pair is shown in Figure 17.7. The contact line which starts at QO now intersects the plane z=F at a point between QF and T1F \u2022 The face contact ratio must lie wi thin the following range, 498 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears < (17.19) and this type of gear pair will be described as a low face contact ratio (LFCR) gear pair. We know that the contact length is at its minimum value, since one contact line passes through T10 \u2022 To calculate the value of Lcmin ' we take the length of the contact line through QO' and we add the length of the short contact line near T2F , L . cmln F cos 1/Ib + Ptb (m +m -2) sin 1/Ib F P The expression is simplified if we use Equation (17.6) to express Ptb in terms of F, L . cmln (17.20) Lastly, we consider gear pairs in which the face contact ratio is greater than 1, > (17.21) Gear pairs that fall within this category are known as normal helical gear pairs, since most helical gear pairs are designed with a face contact ratio larger than 1. The region of contact for a gear pair of this type is shown in Figure 17.8, with the contact lines in the positions Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 499 corresponding to the minimum contact length. Starting from the left, there is one contact line passing through QQ' then there are a number of complete contact lines stretching from the bottom edge to the top edge of the region, and finally there are either one or two lines which intersect the right-hand edge. To find the value of Lcmin' we consider in turn each of the three groups of contact lines just described. We start by defining two new quantities nc and nF , as the integer parts of mc and mF , (17.22) (17.23) The number of contact lines crossing the upper edge of the region is nF , which means that the number of complete lines is (nF-1). The total number of contact lines is nc ' so the number crossing the right-hand edge is (nc-nF). Hence, the contact length Lcmin is found as follows, L . cmln Ptb \u2022\u2022 1. [1 + mp (nF-1) + (m -n ) + (m -n +l)(n -nF-1)] sIn \"'b c c c c c The result is then simplified, and expressed in terms of the face-width F, L . cmln 500 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears We pointed out earlier that the maximum load intensity on a gear tooth corresponds to the minimum contact length, and for this reason we derived expressions for Lcmin ' However, as we will show later in this chapter, the fillet stress is often a maximum when the contact line passes through the corner T1F of the contact region, and this occurs when the load intensity is a minimum. We therefore also need expressions for Lcmax ' the maximum contact length. Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc lie in the following range, < The contact length is again the sum of the two lengths, and, as usual, we express the result in terms of F, 5{)1 (17.27) 502 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears lower edge of the region is then equal to (nFP+2), and the total number of contact lines in the region is (nF+2). Hence, the number of complete contact lines is (nFP+1), and the number of lines crossing the left-hand edge of the region is (nF-nFP)' By considering the three groups of contact lines described earlier, we-obtain the following expression for the contact length, As before, we simplify this result, and express Lcmax in terms of F, Contact Stress In the last section of Chapter 14, we proved that when A is a contact point between a rack and a pinion, the line of contact through A and the common normal at A both, lie in the plane of action. The same is true when A is a contact point between a pair of helical gears. To prove this statement, we need only consider the imaginary rack between the gears, and make use of the result just stated, first for one gear and the imaginary rack, and then for the second gear and the imaginary rack. The plane of action for a gear pair is shown in Figure 17.12, with the contact line GA making an angle..pb with the n direction, as we proved in Equation (14.93). Near z point A, the tooth surfaces can be represented by two circular cylinders in contact, with their axes lying in the plane of action. Their radi i are shown as Pc 1 and Pc2' with the subscript c indicating that these are the radii of curvature when we make a section through the cylinders perpendicular to the line of contact. If we make a transverse section, as shown in the diagram, the cylinders appear as ellipses. For gear 1, the semi-minor axis of the ellipse is Pc1 ' while the semi-major axis is equal to (pc 1/cOS ..pb)' The radius of Contact Stress 503 curvature Pt 1 at point A in the transverse section through the tooth profile is then equal to the radius of curvature at the corresponding point of the ellipse, 2 Pc l (17.31) The corresponding equation for gear 2 can be written down immediately, (17.32) The maximum contact stress 0c between two cylinders of radii Pc1 and Pc2 was given by Equation (11.5)," ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0000959_j.apm.2021.03.051-Figure4-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0000959_j.apm.2021.03.051-Figure4-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 4.

Exceptionally, the number of teeth-pairs in simultaneous contact at each contact position \u03bemin and \u03bemax , may increase by one due to the load-induced deflections and output gear delay.

The same method Span Measurement 355 can be used for a helical gear, and the measurement is made in a base tangent plane, since in this plane the normals to the surfaces of different teeth all lie in the same direction. A base tangent plane is shown in Figure 13.26, with the shaded areas representing the sections through the teeth. The span measurement is made in the direction perpendicular to the teeth, and is shown in the diagram as the length S. Since the base tangent section is essentially the same as the developed base cylinder, as we pointed out earlier in this chapter, the pitch and the tooth thickness in the direction of the span measurement are equal to the normal base pitch Pnb and the normal tooth thickness t nb at the base cylinder. Hence, if the span is measured over N' teeth, the span length is equal to (N'-1) normal base pitches, together with the tooth thic kness, S (13.122) By expressing Pnb and t nb in terms of the corresponding quantities in the transverse plane, and then relating these to the quantities in the standard pitch cylinder, we can express the span length S in the following manner, (13.123) 356 Tooth Surface of a Helical Involute Gear Once the length S is measured, the normal tooth thickness is found by rearranging Equation (13.123), S - (N'-1)7I'm - Nm inv'ts cos 'ns n n (13.124) The radius R at which the measurement is made can be read from Figure 13.26, R (13.125) We now have to choose the value of N' so that the span measurement is made near the middle of the tooth face, or in other words, at a radi us of approximately (Rs +e). The value of S which would give the ideal measurement radius is found by setting R equal to (Rs+e) in Equation (13.125), (13.126) We follow the same procedure that was used in the case of spur gears. We express Rb in terms of Rs ' and expand the expression for S as a power series in (e/Rs )' retaining only the first two terms, ( 13", "75-(2/N)], exactly as we did for spur gears, and once again the angle 'ts in the second term is expressed more conveniently in degrees, so that the final expression Position of a Typical Point A on the Tooth Surface 357 for N' takes the following form, N' ~ 1 + N1~8tos + N tan ~ns ::n2~b + 2e[0.75-(2/N)] (13.129) - 2 'II' cos 'II'mn tan cfl ns This equation generally gives a non-integer value for N' , and the number of teeth to be spanned is equal to the integer closest to this value. There is one condition that must be met, for the span measurement of a helical gear to be possible. The measurement must obviously be made inside the end faces of the gear. The projection of the span length in the axial direction, which is shown in Figure 13.26, must therefore be less than the face width, S sin ~b < F (13.130) Position of a Typical Point A on the Tooth Surface We stated earlier that the tooth surface of a helical gear is formed by a family of helices, each passing through a specified profile in the transverse section z=O.

This implies that the screw system SHdt is unchanged with respect to St as an effect of the centripetal acceleration, and its expression does not depend on the centripetal term of the acceleration.

This means that the screw system varies by reason of the movement of 82 along the trajectories of Tl, Sugimoto (1990), and so it can be evaluated by the Lie derivative of 82 with respect to T I . The expression (18) can be generalized for an arbitrary serial chain. Suppose that a third screw 8 s is added to the serial chain of figure 1. The total motion can be split in two consecutive movements, the first due to joint 2 and the second to joint 1. After a movement of joint 2, the screw 8s becomes by (18): (19) Further, after a movement of joint 1: 82 -+ 82 + [Tl' 8 2 ]dt 8~ -+ 8~ + [Tl' 8~]dt = 8 s + [Tl, 8s]dt + [T2' 8s]dt + o(dt) (20) Clearly the movement due to joint 3 does not affect the screw system.

(3.2) According to condition (i) and Equation (13), a con\u00aeguration is an RI-type singularity if and only if at least one of the following conditions is satis\u00aeed: either the subchain A is singular (in any way); or subchain B is fully extended; or subchain C is fully extended. Condition (ii) and Equation (12) imply that an RPM-singularity is also of the RO-type in the following three cases: (a) When C is on the SC 1 axis and the plane ABC is perpendicular to mC 2 (Fig. 10 is an example, though subchain B need not be singular). (b) When C is on the SC 1 axis while point B is not on the SB 1 axis, and b_mB 1 . (c) When B is on the SB 1 axis, while point C is not on the SC 1 axis, and the point Co lies in the plane ABC (Fig. 9, though subchain A need not be singular). Thus, four sets are obtained: 15 RPM-type singularities, 14 RPM and RI-type singularities, 14 RPM and RO-type singularities and RPM, RI and RO-type singularities. (3.3) The intersections of the subsets of {3.1} and {3.2} give the 10 singularity classes (Table 2) of con\u00aegurations that are both IIM and RPM. Of these, only \u00aeve classes are non-empty for the mechanism under consideration: (a) (IIM, IO, RPM, RI) has 12 con\u00aegurations with two singular subchains similarly to Fig. 7, but subchain A must be one of the singular subchains. When the two singular subchains are A and B, point Co should not lie in the plane ABC (i.e. unlike Fig. 10). Alternatively, if the singular subchains are A and C, then the plane ABC should not contain Co and Ao. (b) (IIM, IO, II, RPM) has 12 con\u00aegurations as in Fig. 7. The singular subchains must be B and C. The plane ABC must not contain Co and Bo (unlike Fig. 10). (c) (IIM, IO, II, RPM. RI) has 13 con\u00aegurations with three singular subchains as in Fig. 6. (d) (IIM, IO, II, RPM, RO) has 11 con\u00aegurations like the one depicted in Fig. 10. The moving plane ABC contains the points Co and Bo and the subchains B and C are singular in the same way as in Fig. 7. (e) (IIM, IO, II, RPM, RI, RO) has 11 con\u00aegurations in two 1-dimensional sets. The \u00aerst is represented by the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 9. It is similar to Fig. 7 with singular subchains A and B, but point Co is in the plane ABC, allowing for a RO-singularity. The second set is similar to the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 9, however, the non-singular subchain must be B rather than A. (3.4) Only one of the four classes of IIM but not RPM singularities is non-empty: (IIM, IO, RI, RO) consists of 11 con\u00aegurations as in Fig", "5) All of the four RPM but not IIM classes are non-empty. (RPM, II, IO) has 15 con\u00aegurations. An example for this class can be obtained from the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 7 by an arbitrarily small perturbation of the subchain C while subchains A and B remain \u00aexed. (RPM, RI, II, IO) has 14 con\u00aegurations and can be illustrated by a variation of Fig. 6 obtained by maintaining the depicted position of the subchains A and B and slightly perturbing subchain C. (RPM, RO, II, IO) has 12 con\u00aegurations. An example is obtained from the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 10 by a small rotation of subchain C about SC 1 . (RPM, RI, RO, II, IO) has 12 con\u00aegurations and a representative can be obtained from Fig. 9 by a small rotation of subchain C about SC 1 . (4) RO- and II-type singularities There are 15 con\u00aegurations that are of the RO and II types but are not IIM nor RPM-singu- larities. From Equation (12), the conditions for RO-type singularity are: (a) Either Co must be in the plane ABC (Fig. 11), or (b) The point A must be in the plane of subchain B (Fig. 12), i" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003468_978-1-4612-4764-7-Figure15.1-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003468_978-1-4612-4764-7-Figure15.1-1.png", "caption": "Figure 15.1. A helical rack and pinion.", "texts": [ " However, even though their use is far less frequent than that of parallel-axis gears, it is important to understand the meshing geometry of a crossed helical gear pair, since it forms the theoretical basis of the hobbing process. The technique of hobbing is the most common method by which gears are cut. It is essentially a process in which the gear blank 406 Crossed Helical Gears and the hob operate as a pair of crossed helical gears. A brief description of hobbing was given in in Chapter 5, but for a more detailed explanation, it is first necessary to describe the meshing geometry of crossed helical gears. A helical rack and pinion, of the type discussed in Chapter 14, is shown in Figure 15.1. The rack is supported in guides which allow movement only in the direction perpendicular to the pinion axis. We showed in Chapter 14 that a rack and pinion will mesh correctly, provided the normal base pi tch and the transverse base pi tch of the rack are equal to those of the pinion. The pi tch cylinder radi us of the pinion is given by Equation (14.6), (15.1) where Ptr is the transverse pitch of the rack. We also proved that on the pinion the normal and transverse pitches, the Rack and Pinion 407 helix angle, and the normal and transverse pressure angles, all measured at the pitch cylinder, are equal to the corresponding quantities on the rack", " The velocity of the rack in Figure 15.2 can be resolved into two non-perpendicular components v~ and v~, the first in the direction perpendicular to the pinion axis, and the second parallel to the rack teeth, as shown in Figure 15.2. A motion of the rack in the direction of its teeth would cause no rotation of the pinion, so the only component of the rack velocity related directly to the pinion angular velocity is v~. The value of v~ for the rack in Figure 15.2 is therefore equal to the velocity of the rack in Figure 15.1, and the other component v~ must be such that the resultant velocity is in the direction allowed by the guides. Since the angle between the component directions is fixed, the components\u00b7 v~ and v~ remain in a constant ratio, and a constant angular velocity of the pinion will therefore produce a constant velocity of the rack. To distinguish between the two types of rack shown in Figures 15.1 and 15.2, we regard each rack as the limiting case, when the number of teeth becomes infinite, of a gear whose axis is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the rack. In the case of Figure 15.1, the axis of this gear is parallel to the pinion axis, so the rack and pinion can be thought of as a special case of a parallel-axis gear pair. On the other hand, the rack in Figure 15.2 is the limiting case of a gear whose axis is not parallel to the pinion axis, and the angle between these two axes is shown in the diagram as t. Since the axes are not parallel, the rack and pinion can be regarded as a crossed helical gear pair. The two types of rack and pinion will be referred to as either a parallel-axis, or a crossed helical, rack and pinion", " The concept of the pitch cylinder does turn out to be useful in the geometric analysis of a crossed helical rack and pinion. We start by defining it, and then we will explain the reasons for the way in which it is defined. The pitch cylinder of a pinion, meshed with a rack in a crossed helical manner, is defined as the cylinder with the same radius as the pinion pitch cylinder in the equivalent parallel-axis rack and pinion. With this definition, the radius of the pinion pitch cylinder in Figure 15.2 is equal to that in Figure 15.1. The pitch cylinder radius for the pinion in Figure 15.1 was given by Equation (15.1) in terms of the transverse pitch of the rack, We cannot use the same equation for the pinion in Figure 15.2, because the transverse pitches of the two racks are different. We therefore use Equation (14.1) to express the transverse pitch of the rack in Figure 15.1, in terms of its Pinion pi tch Cylinder 411 normal pitch and its helix angle. We then obtain the following expression for the pitch cylinder radius, 271' cos I/I~ (15.4) This equation can now be used to give the pitch cylinder radius for the pinion in Figure 15.2, since the values of the rack normal pitch and the rack helix angle are the same in the two diagrams. The most important advantage of defining the pi tch cylinder in this manner is that we know, from the meshing geometry of the parallel-axis rack and pinion described in Chapter 14, that the normal pitch, the normal pressure angle, and the helix angle of the rack are equal to the corresponding quantities on the gear, measured at this particular radius, 1/1' r 4>np (15.5) (15.6) (15.7) There is, of course, no longer any relation between the transverse quantities of the rack and those of the pinion, since the transverse quantities on the rack are all different from those on the parallel-axis rack in Figure 15.1. The only disadvantage we find, when the pitch cylinder is defined in this way, is that the rack velocity is no longer equal to RpW, as it is in the case of a parallel-axis rack and pinion. However, it is not difficult to express the rack velocity in terms of the pinion angular velocity. We proved earlier that if the pinions in Figures 15.1 and 15.2 have the same angular velocity, the velocity of the rack in Figure 15.1 is equal to v~, the velocity component of the rack in Figure 15.2 perpendicular to the pinion axis. We know that the rack in Figure 15.1 has a velocity equal to R w. For the rack p in Figure 15.2, it is therefore the velocity component v~, rather than the resultant veloc i ty, which is equal to Rpw, v' r (15.8) 412 Crossed Helical Gears We now use the velocity vector triangle in Figure 15.2, to express the resultant rack velocity vr in terms of the pinion angular velocity, cos \"'~ v~ cos(\"'~-~) cos \"'~ cos(\"'~-~) Rpw (15.9) If we combine Equations (15.4 and 15.9), we obtain an alternative expression for the rack velocity, 211' cos(\"'~-~) W (15" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003468_978-1-4612-4764-7-Figure12.5-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003468_978-1-4612-4764-7-Figure12.5-1.png", "caption": "Figure 12.5.

The symbol Pp is therefore used to represent the operating circular pitch of either gear, and its value is given by the following expression, (12.23) Relation Between the Gear positions In an internal gear pair, the angular position of the internal gear is indicated in the same manner as that of the pinion, by the angle ~2 measured from the line of centers counter-clockwise to the x2 axis.

Some researches have modified the \u2018per-phase\u2019 equivalent circuits used in roundrotor machine analysis [2][3]. However, they are mainly focused on evaluating the characteristics of the motor. This paper presents a new equivalent circuit model in which the end effect is modeled and quantified for the rotor-flux oriented(RF0) control of a LIM. . Fig. 1 (a) shows a conceptual construction of a linear induction motor. The primary is simply a rotary-motor primary cut open and rolled flat. The secondary usually consists of a sheet conductor with an iron return path for the magnetic flux. In a LIM, as the primary moves, the secondary is continuously replaced by a new material. This new material will tend to resist a sudden increase in flux penetration and only allow a gradual build up of the flux density in the air gap. Such a flux variation along the motor length is illustrated in Fig", " The eddy current in the entry grows very rapidly to mirror the primary current, nullifying the- primary MMF and reducing the flux to nearly zero at entry [6]. On the other hand, the eddy current at the exit generates a kind of wake field, dragging the moving motion of the primary core. The rise and decay of the secondary eddy current are controlled by the 0-7803-5589-X/99/$10.00 1999 IEEE 2284 sheet leakage time constant ZT = LIT/r, and total secondary time constant T, = LT/r,, respectively [6]. Since Tl, is small compared with T,, the eddy current at the entry grows very rapidly to the primary current level, and then decay slowly (See Fig. 1 (b)). Hereafter, we consider the problem of incorporating the end effects into an equivalent circuit model. Note from the previous argument that, the secondary eddy current generated by the end effect is in phase opposition to the primary current. In RFO vector control of a RIM, the synchronous reference frame is aligned to d axis rotor flux A:, yielding A& = 0, i:,. = 0, and i:, = -Lm/L, . i& in the steady state. Similar concept can be applied to the LIM.

In 1919, Jeffcott published his classic paper using a rotor model depicted in Fig. 7.18 in which the curve of the vibration amplitude against frequency was given. He concluded that self-centering effect was created when the rotor operating at a super-critical speed and the amplitude would tend to a constant value with further increase of rotational speed (Jeffcott 1919).

The design was based on the fact that, on a molecular scale, even smooth surfaces appear rough, and, according to Knudsen 54, the direction in which a molecule rebounds after a collision with a wall is statistically independent of the angle of incidence. For this reason, the molecular flow resistance of small orifices can be made relatively high. The vapour pressure inside the chamber can be 87 E. V.

The differential ratio can be achieved with good accuracy by two gear pairs, having ratios of (24/66) and (59/69). It is not always easy, however, to find change gears which give the required ratio. In the case described in this example, it would have been simpler if the gear pair had been designed with an axial pitch of 40 mm, in which case the required differential change gear ratio would have been exactly (25/80). Example 16.3 When lead screws and other transfer mechanisms are converted from inches to mms, it is sometimes necessary to introduce a factor of 25.4 into their drives. This factor requires a gear with 127 teeth, which is difficult to cut using conventional change gear ratios, because 127 is a prime number, and most sets of change gears do not contain gears with more than 120 teeth.

Chapter 17 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears Introduction The calculation of the tooth stresses in a helical gear is considerably more complicated than the corresponding calculat ion for a spur gear. The contact stress and the fillet stress in each tooth depend on the intensity of the load, and on its position. Since the load intensity varies, as the position of the contact line moves up or down the tooth face, it is not easy to decide when the maximum stresses will occur. As we pointed out in Chapter 11, we consider in this book only the static stresses that would occur if the gears were not rotating. The actual stresses that exist in normal operation are found by multiplying the static stresses by various factors, to account for dynamic effects, type of loading, and so on. Values for these factors are given in the AGMA Standard referred to in Chapter 11 [6]. The method described in this chapter for calculating the static stresses is based on the AGMA method, but differs from it in certain respects. A summary of the differences will be presented at the end of the chapter. Tooth Contact Force In a helical gear pair, there are generally several tooth pairs which are simultaneously in contact. The contact in each tooth pair takes place along a straight line, which coincides with one of the generators in each tooth. In order to calculate the tooth stresses, we assume that the load intensity w is constant along all the contact lines. The value 490 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears of w at any instant is then equal to the total contact force W, divid.d by the total contact length Lc' w (17.1) In this section of the chapter, we determine the value of W, corresponding to any specified value of the applied torque. And in the following section, we will describe how to calculate the contact length Lc. The direction n~ of the normal to the tooth surface at A, when A is a point on the contact line, was given by Equation (14.94), n~ = cos \"'b [sin t/ltp nx(O) + cos t/ltp ny(O)] - sin \"'b nz(O) (17.2) In the absence of friction, the contact force acts in the direction opposite to n~, and its component parallel to the gear axis is therefore (w sin \"'b). Hence, the component perpendicular to the gear axis, which is the useful component, is equal to (W cos \"'b) \u2022 The base cylinder of gear 1 is shown in Figure 17.1, with Contact Length 491 the plane of action of the contact force touching the base cylinder. The diagram also shows the component of the contact force perpendicular to the gear axis. We take moments about the axis, to obtain a relation between the applied torque M1 and the contact force W, (17.3) and we use the same method to find the corresponding relation between the contact force and the torque M2 appl ied to gear 2, (17.4) The contact force is found from either of these equations. By combining the two equations, we obtain a relation between M1 and M2 , which is the same as Equation (11.3), the corresponding relation between the torques applied to a pair of spur gears. (17.5) Contact Length As we stated earlier, there generally several tooth pairs in contact at any instant, and the contact length Lc is the sum of the contact lengths on each of these tooth pairs. In this section, we will derive a general expression for Lc' It turns out that we do not often need to make use of the general expression, since the cases required for the stress analysis are always special, and therefore simpler. However, it is a matter of interest to have the general result, and it also helps to determine when the maximum and minimum values of Lc occur. A transverse section through the gear pair is shown in Figure 17.2, with the plane of action touching the two base cylinders. As usual, the ends T1 and T2 of the path of contact are the points where the tip cylinders intersect the plane of action. Figure 17.3 shows the plane of action, with the axial lines through T1 and T2 meeting the transverse plane z=O at T10 and T20 , and meeting the transverse plane z=F at T1F and T2F \u2022 The region of contact is the rectangle T10T20T2FT1F. We stated in Chapter 14 that the lines of contact on the different contacting tooth pairs can be represented by a set of diagonal lines in the region of contact, each making an angle \"'b with the gear axis, and with a vertical spacing equal to the transverse base pi tch Ptb. To find the length of the contact lines in the rectangle, it is helpful to construct two additional triangles T'T 10T1F and T10T\"T20 , as shown in Figure 17.3. The value of Lc is then found as the length of the diagonal lines in triangle T' T\"T 2F' minus the lengths in triangles T'T 10T1F and T10T\"T20 \u2022 We proved in Chapter 14 that the lengths T' T 1 F and T 1 F T 2F are equal to mFPtb and mpptb' where mF and mp are the face contact ratio and the profile contact ratio, given by Equations (14.68 and 14.64), _1_ Ptb F tan \"'b (17.6) Contact Length 493 The plane of action. In addition, the length T'T2F is equal to mcptb' where mc is the total contact ratio, equal to the sum of mF and mp , (17.8) In order to find the value of Lc' we first consider a general triangle of height mPtb' where m can represent any of the contact ratios me' mF or mp. This triangle is shown in Figure 17.4, and the upper contact line is shown in a typical position, lying a vertical distance ePtb below the top corner of the triangle, where e is any number between 0 and 1. The number of contact lines in the triangle is equal to 494 Tooth Stresses in Hel ical Gears (n +1), where n represents the integral part of the number e e (m-e). If e is greater than m, there are no contact lines in the triangle, and the value required for ne is -1. We therefore define a function, n int(f) (17.9) where f is any number, and n is the largest integer which is less than or equal to f. If, for example, f has the values 2.2, 1.0 and -0.3, the corresponding values of n are 2, 1 and -1. The val ue of n e can then be expressed by the funct ion, n e int(m-e) (17.10) In the triangle shown in Figure 17.4, the upper contact line has a length (m-w)ptb/sin ~b' The next contact line is shorter than the first by Ptb/sin ~b' and so on. The total contact length Le can therefore be expressed as an arithmetic series, whose sum is given by the following expression, (17.11) We now apply this result to the three triangles in If we use this method to calculate the contact length Lc for various values of e, we will find the following results. Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 495 The value of L is always a minimum when e is zero, and a c contact line passes through the upper corner T10 of the region of contact. And the value of L is a maximum when e is equal to c [mF - int(mF)], and a contact line passes through the other upper corner T1F of the contact region. Minimum and Maximum Values of Lc For the purpose of the stress analysis, we would expect to be most interested in the minimum value of Lc' since this corresponds to the maximum load intensity. Now that we know that the contact length is a minimum when a contact line passes through T10 , it is possible to find simpler expressions for the value Lcmin \u2022 We can simplify the expressions further, if we consider only gear pairs in which every transverse section has either one or two contact points. This condition means that the profile contact ratio lies between the following limits, < 2 (17.16) and this range includes all gear pairs of normal design. In the transverse section shown in Figure 17.2, there are two points Q and Q' marked on the plane of action. Point Q lies a distance Ptb below T l' and Q' lies a distance Ptb above T2\u2022 If the diagram represented a spur gear pair, Q and Q' would be the points on the path of contact corresponding to the ends of the period of single-tooth contact. In a helical gear pair, there is generally no period of single-tooth contact, because the total contact ratio mc is usually larger than 2. However, Q and Q' would represent the ends of the period of single-tooth contact in any particular transverse section, and it is therefore still customary to refer to these points as the end points of single-tooth contact. The region of contact is shown again in Figure 17.5, with the axial lines through Q and Q' cutting the transverse plane z=O a~ QO and QQ' and cutting the transverse plane z=F at QF and Qp.. We have stated that the value of Lc is a minimum when a contact line passes through point T 10. There must simultaneously be a second contact line through QO' since the distance between T10 and QO is equal to the transverse base pitch Ptb' Due to the symmetry of the rectangle, we can also argue that Lc is again a minimum when there are contact lines through T 2F and QF' We now consider a particular gear pair, with the contact lines shown in Figure 17.5. One contact line passes through point T10 , while a second line starts at QO' and intersects the plane z=F at point AF , somewhere between QF and QF' For this situation to be possible, the length mFPtb must be less than (2-mp)ptb' as we can see from the diagram. Such a gear pair is therefore defined by the condition, (17.17) and will be referred to as a very low face contact ratio (VLFCR) gear pair. A spur gear pair, in which the face contact ratio is zero, would fit into this category. The condition given by Equation (17.17) is equivalent to the statement that the total contact ratio mc is less than 2. This means that there are periods of the meshing cycle when only one tooth pair is in contact, which is the situation shown in Figure 17.5. The contact length Lcmin for this case can be read directly from the diagram, L . cmln F cos \"'b (17.18) Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 497 The same region of contact is shown in Figure 17.6, but the contact line has moved up, so that it now passes through point Qp., and a new contact line is about to enter the region at T2F \u2022 During the period when the contact line moves between the positions of Figures 17.5 and 17.6, there is only one tooth pair in contact, and the contact length Lc remains constant, with the value equal to Lcmin given by Equation (17.18). The region of contact for a second gear pair is shown in Figure 17.7. The contact line which starts at QO now intersects the plane z=F at a point between QF and T1F \u2022 The face contact ratio must lie wi thin the following range, 498 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears < (17.19) and this type of gear pair will be described as a low face contact ratio (LFCR) gear pair. We know that the contact length is at its minimum value, since one contact line passes through T10 \u2022 To calculate the value of Lcmin ' we take the length of the contact line through QO' and we add the length of the short contact line near T2F , L . cmln F cos 1/Ib + Ptb (m +m -2) sin 1/Ib F P The expression is simplified if we use Equation (17.6) to express Ptb in terms of F, L . cmln (17.20) Lastly, we consider gear pairs in which the face contact ratio is greater than 1, > (17.21) Gear pairs that fall within this category are known as normal helical gear pairs, since most helical gear pairs are designed with a face contact ratio larger than 1. The region of contact for a gear pair of this type is shown in Figure 17.8, with the contact lines in the positions Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 499 corresponding to the minimum contact length. Starting from the left, there is one contact line passing through QQ' then there are a number of complete contact lines stretching from the bottom edge to the top edge of the region, and finally there are either one or two lines which intersect the right-hand edge. To find the value of Lcmin' we consider in turn each of the three groups of contact lines just described. We start by defining two new quantities nc and nF , as the integer parts of mc and mF , (17.22) (17.23) The number of contact lines crossing the upper edge of the region is nF , which means that the number of complete lines is (nF-1). The total number of contact lines is nc ' so the number crossing the right-hand edge is (nc-nF). Hence, the contact length Lcmin is found as follows, L . cmln Ptb \u2022\u2022 1. [1 + mp (nF-1) + (m -n ) + (m -n +l)(n -nF-1)] sIn \"'b c c c c c The result is then simplified, and expressed in terms of the face-width F, L . cmln 500 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears We pointed out earlier that the maximum load intensity on a gear tooth corresponds to the minimum contact length, and for this reason we derived expressions for Lcmin ' However, as we will show later in this chapter, the fillet stress is often a maximum when the contact line passes through the corner T1F of the contact region, and this occurs when the load intensity is a minimum. We therefore also need expressions for Lcmax ' the maximum contact length. Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc lie in the following range, < The contact length is again the sum of the two lengths, and, as usual, we express the result in terms of F, 5{)1 (17.27) 502 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears lower edge of the region is then equal to (nFP+2), and the total number of contact lines in the region is (nF+2). Hence, the number of complete contact lines is (nFP+1), and the number of lines crossing the left-hand edge of the region is (nF-nFP)' By considering the three groups of contact lines described earlier, we-obtain the following expression for the contact length, As before, we simplify this result, and express Lcmax in terms of F, Contact Stress In the last section of Chapter 14, we proved that when A is a contact point between a rack and a pinion, the line of contact through A and the common normal at A both, lie in the plane of action. The same is true when A is a contact point between a pair of helical gears. To prove this statement, we need only consider the imaginary rack between the gears, and make use of the result just stated, first for one gear and the imaginary rack, and then for the second gear and the imaginary rack. The plane of action for a gear pair is shown in Figure 17.12, with the contact line GA making an angle..pb with the n direction, as we proved in Equation (14.93). Near z point A, the tooth surfaces can be represented by two circular cylinders in contact, with their axes lying in the plane of action. Their radi i are shown as Pc 1 and Pc2' with the subscript c indicating that these are the radii of curvature when we make a section through the cylinders perpendicular to the line of contact. If we make a transverse section, as shown in the diagram, the cylinders appear as ellipses. For gear 1, the semi-minor axis of the ellipse is Pc1 ' while the semi-major axis is equal to (pc 1/cOS ..pb)' The radius of Contact Stress 503 curvature Pt 1 at point A in the transverse section through the tooth profile is then equal to the radius of curvature at the corresponding point of the ellipse, 2 Pc l (17.31) The corresponding equation for gear 2 can be written down immediately, (17.32) The maximum contact stress 0c between two cylinders of radii Pc1 and Pc2 was given by Equation (11.5)," ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003158_robot.2002.1013705-Figure1-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003158_robot.2002.1013705-Figure1-1.png", "caption": "Figure 1: Coordinate frames", "texts": [ " Finally, Section 5 provides conclusions. 2.

Therefore, to further improve the design lifetime based on assessment procedures at the presence of MNIEF, a weld toe polishing method was determined in terms of BS 7608 and current manufacturing guidelines. The calculation clearly shows that the lifetime due to polishing is discounted to about 135 million kilometers (see Fig. 11) larger than that from as-welded joints. In view of potential failure hazard of welded defects inside the highspeed powered bogie under extreme service environments, the newlydesigned frame should be further examined for a higher life safety factor although current safety factor 12.5 has been acquired in terms of estimated 135 million kilometers to actual 10.8 million kilometers. According to BS 7608, after weld toe polishing, the knee point of fatigue S-N curve can be increased to 1.5 times of the as-welded joints. Meanwhile, the inverse slope can be increased from 3 to 3.5. Therefore, the weld toe polishing was virtually introduced by adopting the modified fatigue S-N curve, and the calculated cumulative damage D was plotted in Fig. 11. It can be clearly found that the maximum D is 0.08 around the journal guidance seat, thus indicating the significantly improved fatigue life of the bogie frame. Compared with original assessment procedure in Fig. 9, the maximum D has been significantly decreased from 0.86 to current 0.08 at the presence of MNIEF.

To prevent the teeth of the two gears from jamming together, the tooth thickness of each gear is chosen so that contact will occur on one face only, leaving a small gap at the opposite face. This gap, which can be seen in the gear pair shown in Figure 4.10, is known as the backlash. The size of the gap can be defined in a number of different ways, particularly in the case of a helical gear pair, and each method leads to a slightly different value for the backlash. It is common practice to refer simply to the backlash of a gear pair, without specifying which type of backlash is meant. This practice is quite acceptable, provided the word backlash is used in a general sense to refer to the gap between the teeth of the two gears.

The reference point is usually chosen in the center of the grid and is used to define the tooth difference angle by which the tooth thickness or tooth size is calculated.

For the IIM-type con\u00aegurations with three extended legs (as in Fig. 8) the condition is not satis\u00aeed. If only two subchains are singular (similar to Fig. 7), the condition is always satis\u00aeed when the singular subchains are B and C (as in the \u00aegure). When, however, one of the singular subchains is A, then, generally, the matrix A is of rank 5. There are two exceptions. The \u00aerst is represented in Fig. 9, where the singular subchains are A and B and additionally the point Co lies in the plane ABC. The second exception is shown in Fig. 10, where not only points B and C are located on screws SB 1 and SC 1 , but also point A lies in the (vertical) plane de\u00aened by the two screws. Each of Figs 9 and 10 represents, in fact 11 con\u00aegurations, since the elevation of point A can vary. Thus, the set of singularities belonging to the IIM, IO and II types consists of a main 3- dimensional set (Fig. 6), a 2-dimensional set (Fig", "2) According to condition (i) and Equation (13), a con\u00aeguration is an RI-type singularity if and only if at least one of the following conditions is satis\u00aeed: either the subchain A is singular (in any way); or subchain B is fully extended; or subchain C is fully extended. Condition (ii) and Equation (12) imply that an RPM-singularity is also of the RO-type in the following three cases: (a) When C is on the SC 1 axis and the plane ABC is perpendicular to mC 2 (Fig. 10 is an example, though subchain B need not be singular). (b) When C is on the SC 1 axis while point B is not on the SB 1 axis, and b_mB 1 . (c) When B is on the SB 1 axis, while point C is not on the SC 1 axis, and the point Co lies in the plane ABC (Fig. 9, though subchain A need not be singular).

The plane ABC must not contain Co and Bo (unlike Fig. 10). (c) (IIM, IO, II, RPM. RI) has 13 con\u00aegurations with three singular subchains as in Fig. 6.

The moving plane ABC contains the points Co and Bo and the subchains B and C are singular in the same way as in Fig. 7. (e) (IIM, IO, II, RPM, RI, RO) has 11 con\u00aegurations in two 1-dimensional sets. The \u00aerst is represented by the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 9. It is similar to Fig. 7 with singular subchains A and B, but point Co is in the plane ABC, allowing for a RO-singularity. The second set is similar to the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 9, however, the non-singular subchain must be B rather than A. (3.4) Only one of the four classes of IIM but not RPM singularities is non-empty: (IIM, IO, RI, RO) consists of 11 con\u00aegurations as in Fig. 8. (3.5) All of the four RPM but not IIM classes are non-empty. (RPM, II, IO) has 15 con\u00aegurations. An example for this class can be obtained from the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 7 by an arbitrarily small perturbation of the subchain C while subchains A and B remain \u00aexed. (RPM, RI, II, IO) has 14 con\u00aegurations and can be illustrated by a variation of Fig. 6 obtained by maintaining the depicted position of the subchains A and B and slightly perturbing subchain C. (RPM, RO, II, IO) has 12 con\u00aegurations. An example is obtained from the con\u00aeguration in Fig. 10 by a small rotation of subchain C about SC 1 .

The spur gear and rack of Figure 13.2 are shown again in The Basic Helical Rack 309 The Basic Helical Rack Figure 13.5 shows the basic helical rack, used to define the tooth surface of a helical gear. Just as the basic rack of a spur gear has teeth which are straight-sided, the basic rack in Figure 13.5 has teeth whose faces are flat planes. The angle between the gear axis and the direction of the rack teeth is shown as ~r' and it is called the basic rack helix angle. A plane cut through the rack perpendicular to the gear axis is known as a transverse section of the rack, and a plane cut perpendicular to the rack teeth, in other words perpendicular to n S' is called a normal section. The diagram also shows a transverse section and a normal section through the basic rack. The distances in the two sections between corresponding points of adjacent teeth are called the transverse rack pitch Ptr and the normal rack pitch Pnr", " It can be seen from triangle A1A2A3 that there is a relation between the two pitches, (13.1) We define a transverse module mt and a normal module mn in terms of the pi tches of the basic rack, 310 Tooth Surface of a Helical Involute Gear (13.2) (13.3) and the modules are then related in the same manner as the pitches, (13.4) The transverse diametral pitch Ptd and the normal diametral pitch Pnd are defined as the reciprocals of the two modules, (13.5) (13.6) The pressure angles shown in the transverse and normal Independent Parameters of the Basic Rack 311 sections in Figure 13.5 are called the transverse rack pressure angle ~tr and the normal rack pressure angle ~nr. They can be expressed in terms of the tooth dimensions as follows, tan ~tr ht H tan ~nr hn H where H is the tooth depth, and ht and hn are the lengths shown in Figure 13.5 in the transverse and normal tooth sections. These two lengths are related as follows, and from the last three equations, we obtain a relation between the two pressure angles and the helix angle, tan ~tr cos \"'r (13.7) The rack base pitches in the two sections are defined as the distances between adjacent tooth profiles, measured in each case along the common normal. The transverse base pitch Ptbr and the normal base pitch Pnbr are shown in Figure 13.5, and are related to the rack pitches Ptr and Pnr in the following manner, (13.8) (13.9) Independent Parameters of the Basic Rack We have specified the basic rack by means of the following seven quantities: Ptr' Pnr' Ptbr' Pnbr' ~tr' ~nr and \"'r. However, we have shown that there are four relations between the quantities, given by Equations (13.1, 13.7, 13.8 and 13.9). It is clear that only three of the quantities used to specify the basic rack are independent. We will choose to 312 Tooth Surface of a Helical Involute Gear regard Pnr' ~nr and Wr as the three independent parameters, and we now repeat the relations in a form suitable for calculating the remaining four quantities. tan ~tr Basic Rack Reference Plane Pnr cos Wr tan ~nr cos Wr (13.10) (13.11) (13.12) (13.13) In Chapter 2, when we discussed the basic rack profile, we defined the rack reference line as the line along which the tooth thickness and the space width are equal. In the context of a helical rack, the reference line would be a line in the transverse section, as shown in Figure 13.5. If we construct the reference lines in a number of different transverse sections, the lines will all lie in a plane perpendicular to n E, and this plane is known as the rack reference plane, or sometimes the datum plane. Because the tooth profile of an involute rack is straight-sided in the normal as well as the transverse section, a normal section will also intersect the reference plane in a line along which the tooth thickness and the space width are equal. Hence, the rack reference plane can be described as the plane at which the tooth thickness is equal to the space width in both the transverse and the normal sections", " We can therefore describe the pitch cylinders of a helical gear pair as the cylinders with radii RP1 and Rp2 ' where the values of these radii are found by applying the theory of spur gear geometry to any transverse section through the gear pair. A similar description can be given for the case of a helical gear and a rack. In this chapter we will consider only the geometry of a gear meshed with its basic rack, and in the following chapter we will discuss the geometry of a gear meshed with an ordinary rack, and that of a pair of gears. Standard pi tch Cylinder of a Heli cal Gear We now study the geometry of a gear with N teeth, whose tooth shape is defined as being conjugate to the basic rack in Figure 13.5. If we consider a single transverse plane through both the gear and the basic rack, as shown in Figure 13.6, the tooth profile of the gear must be conjugate to that of the rack. Hence, the gear tooth profile in the transverse plane can be found by means of the spur gear geometry described in Chapter 2. The profile is therefore an involute defined by a basic rack with pitch Ptr and pressure angle ~tr' The radii of the standard pitch circle and the base circle are then given by Equations (2.27 and 2" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003979_ac00197a022-Figure6-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003979_ac00197a022-Figure6-1.png", "caption": "Figure 6.

This is especially true for Pt black-based sensors, where the reported errors are as high as 20% resulting from the influence of urea (7). As urea is uncharged in neutral solution and is smaller than glucose, it is not trivial to realize a membrane that will selectively discard urea while allowing glucose to pass through. Fortunately, under the measurement conditions of the present experiment, urea was almost inactive, causing an error of less than 2% (Figure 6) at its physiological maximum (26 mg/dL). Amino acids are also potential physiological interferences, and a considerable amount of work has been done previously dealing with the elimination of their influence. A wide variety of membranes such as polysulfone (4) and Permion 1025 (7) have been employed for this purpose. In the pulsed amperometric mode, the potentials required for amino acid oxidation are much higher (+500 mV) than the one used for glucose oxidation. It is believed that the amino acid oxidation is catalyzed by the metal oxide formation (In, unlike the glucose oxidation, which is inhibited by such a process", " Despite this, interference from a mixture of all amino acids (present at their physiological maximum levels) for a bare electrode was so great that the response toward glucose was almost obscured. However, the transport of these amino acids was greatly restricted by the Nafion membrane, probably because of their zwitterionic character at neutral pH. For a modified electrode with a collagen membrane over the Nafion film, an error of approximately 19% resulted in the response of a 100 mg/dL glucose solution (Figure 6) when all amino acids were added at their physiological maximum level. However, the response for all glucose concentrations fluctuated within *3% when amino acid concentrations were varied from physiological average to the physiological extremes. Therefore, the error resulting from amino acid interference can be cut down to less than 3 % by adding amino acids at their average physiological concentrations to the calibration standards.

ELEMENT ROTATION AND DEFORMATION VECTORS An average rotation is defined for computational expediency. The definition is somewhat arbitrary. We consider two choices. In his discussion of incremental mechanics, Biot [6] suggested an average rotation for a particle in a deformable body. Consider a right triangular element OAB (OA = OB = 1). Subjected to motion, the element becomes (O'A'B'). An average rotation is calculated from the orientations of two coordinates (x, y) and (x, j>), shown in Fig. 1.

The point to be made is that this force is extremely nonlinear. When the print hammer is excited by a periodic voltage, it will respond periodically as long as the frequency is low. But as the frequency is increased, the hammer has little time to damp or settle out and the impact history becomes chaotic (see Figure 3-30).

Other examples are porous media filtration, granular motion, semiconductors, spin glasses, mechanical damage, and fatigue. Hysteresis also appears in redox chemical reaction, biology, economics, and even experimental psychology. From the mathematical point of view, nonconvexity is a source of bistability and leads to hysteresis in evolution. In general, hysteresis means a memory effect which could be rate-independent or rate-dependent. Figure 1.27a shows several rate independent hysteresis loops and Fig. 1.27b shows a continuous hysteresis loop, commonly seen in ferromagnetism and ferroelectrics. The following rules are observed. If a parameter u increases from Ul to U2, the function I moves along the curved path indicated by ABC; conversely, if U decreases from U2 to ul,Jmoves along the path CDA, where the ABC and CDA curves form an enclosed loop. Moreover, if u inverts its moving direction at a random moment when UI < u(t) < U2' I moves into the interior of the region S bounded by the loop ABCDA. The functionJ can attain any interior point of S by a suitable choice of the input function u(t)", " The memory effect makes these materials indispensable in modern technologies and development of smart materials. Computer memories require rate-independent hysteresis loop with the smallest S value. Different applications require different shapes of the hysteresis loops (Fig. 1.24). In solid materials, phase transitions with discontinuity of a physical parameter, for example magnetization, or polarization or dimension of its volume, will induce a discontinuous hysteresis effect, which occurs for instance in ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity, and solid redox reaction (Fig. 1.27a). 1.15.1.4.

Mobile manipulator machining system for machining the sub-region of large complex components.", "texts": [ " This is of great significance to the BP optimization of mobile manipulators. BP optimization is a complex nonlinear optimization problem with multiple constraints, and its goal is to improve the performance of the robot. More precisely, the goal of BP optimization is to improve the stiffness performance of the robot as much as possible under the premise of ensuring its kinematic performance. In order to describe this problem more clearly, this section will give a detailed explanation in conjunction with the scenario shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 1 shows the application scenario of mobile manipulator machining system in machining the LCC\u2019s sub-region. Meanwhile, some key frames and their transformation relations (X YT represents the 4 \u00d7 4 transformation matrix of frame {Y} w.r.t frame {X}) are also given. The definitions of these frames are given below. \u2022 {W} is the world frame, which is also the reference frame for other frames; \u2022 {Pi} is the frame corresponding to a point on the machining path of the sub-region. Assuming that the machining path is discretized into n points, and then the position vector ti = [xi, yi, zi]T , normal vector wi and tangent vector ui of any point Pi w", "t {W} can be defined as W BPT = [ I3\u00d73 bp 0 1 ] (10) where bp = [x, y, z0] T, and z0 is usually a constant, which is determined by the height of robot\u2019s base frame. \u2022 {6} is the end link frame of the robot; Q. Fan et al. Robotics and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing 70 (2021) 102138 \u2022 {tcp} is the TCP frame. And the transformation matrix of {tcp} w.r.t {6} and {Pi} is determined by the design parameters of the tool and the process parameters (mainly the cutting depth) respectively. Furthermore, according to the transformation relations between frames in Fig. 1, another expression of the transformation matrix of {BP} w.r.t {W} can be obtained as W BPT = W PiT\u22c5Pi tcpT\u22c56 tcpT\u2212 1\u22c5BP 6 T\u2212 1 (11) For a given machining task (i.e. machining path, process parameters, robot and tools are determined), W Pi T, Pi tcpT and 6 tcpT are usually known, which means that robot BP is the only factor determining the joint angle of the robot. Therefore, considering that the joint angle of the robot determines its kinematics and stiffness performance, the BP optimization problem of mobile manipulators can be defined as: Establishing an efficient optimization method under the conditions that the machining path, process parameters, robot and tool are determined, so as to accurately find the most suitable machining position for the mobile manipulator on the plane Z = z0 (z0 is the height of the robot\u2019s base frame), namely the robot\u2019s optimal BP", " The schematic diagram of this method is shown in Fig. 4.

In order to study the chemical composition of the obtained product and the valence state of each element, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) studies were carried out [25]. As shown in Fig. 1a, three elements (C, Fe, and Se) were detected on the surface of FeSe NR/CC. Three peaks centered at around 284.6 eV, 711.0 eV, and 58.0 eV refer to the C 1s, Fe 2p, and Se 3d, respectively [26]. Fig. 1b shows the XPS spectrum of the Fe 2p region. The binding energies of Fe 2p3/2 and Fe 2p1/2 are located at 711.4 eV and 725.28 eV, respectively, which is originated from Fe2+ [27,28]. Fig. 1c shows the Se 3d spectrum of FeSe. Two deconvoluted peaks can be observed for the material at banding energies between 52 and 56 eV, which correspond to the Se 3d5/2 and 3d3/2 orbitals [29]. Additionally, X-ray diffractogram of FeSe NR/CC was studied to further confirm the formation of the electrode, as shown in Fig. S1, the peaks at 22\u00b0 and 44\u00b0 (marked with \u201c*\u201d) belong to bare CC [30].

After chemical modification, a large number of ferrous selenide nanorods were arrayed on the surface of CC substrate (FeSe NR/CC, Fig. 1e). The high-magnification SEM image (Fig. 1f) indicates that the surface of the FeSe NR/CC is rough, which will inevitably increase the specific surface area of the working electrode and improve the hydrophilicity of the electrode, allowing nitrite ion to enter the electrode/electrolyte interface effectively.

Volumetric slice plot of the measured powder distribution for the large nozzle. Colors indicate the powder flow density \u03c1p.", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "The purpose of the powder flow measurement is to improve the nozzle design and to predict any process behavior of DMD that originates from the powder distribution. Therefore, the calculated powder catchment efficiency \u03b7p derived from the measured powder flow density is analyzed in the following and is compared to the powder catchment efficiency \u03b7c measured from cladding tracks in order to evaluate the quality of the presented method. It is assumed to be accurate, if the calculated catchment efficiency shows good correlation to the actual catchment efficiency, for a broad range of standoff values and melt pool sizes. The powder flow density \u03c1p depends on all three spatial directions. Thus the catchment efficiency can be interpolated for arbitrary standoffs and melt pool sizes within the boundaries of the measurement. Similar to Haley et al. [4], the melt pool shape is modeled as an ellipse with the major axis as melt pool length lm and the minor axis as melt pool width wm. In polar coordinates, the radius of an ellipse is calculated as follows with the eccentricity \u03f5: = + r w \u03b8 w l \u03b8 ( , ) 2 (1 \u03f5 cos )m m m 2 (11) The powder catchment efficiency \u03b7p as a function of the melt pool width wm and the standoff S is the surface integral of the powder flow density \u03c1p within the melt pool area at a given standoff: \u222b \u222b=\u03b7 w S \u03c1 r \u03b8 S r dr d\u03b8( , ) ( , , )p m \u03c0 r w \u03b8 p0 2 0 ( , )m (12) \u03b7p should be equal to one when assuming an infinitely large melt pool, which verifies that the entire powder stream was covered by the measurement. The powder catchment efficiency was calculated numerically. Computed for each standoff range with a step size of 0.2mm, the powder catchment efficiency is plotted as a function of the standoff and for typical melt pool widths in Fig. 14 for the small nozzle and in Fig. 15 for the large nozzle. The catchment efficiency of the small nozzle rises slightly below the nozzle until S = \u22122.6 mm and drops continuously below. The overall efficiency is low, since the laser is only capable of creating a melt pool of wm = 0.8mm on average, which is too small for this type of nozzle. Even if all parameters are optimized once in order that the actual layer thickness equals the nominal one, the nozzle will create an unstable DMD process: Processing needs to take place at a standoff of S = \u22125mm or larger to prevent premature wear or destruction of the small nozzle tip by heat and fumes. When working with such standoff distances, any infinitesimal deviation from the planned build height will propagate itself, since an insufficient layer thickness leads to a further decrease of catchment efficiency in the next layer, and vice versa. This results in a wavy and impaired surface as shown by Zhu et al. [24] and Tan et al. [3]. In contrast, the large nozzle shows a pronounced maximum of the catchment efficiency and the process is able to stabilize itself with a standoff less or equal \u22129mm, which is a feasible distance without nozzle destruction: In case the deposited part becomes too high and the standoff gets smaller than the nominal one, the efficiency drops and creates a counter-effect; the buildup height decreases again and creates a passive stability as outlined by Haley et al. [4]. The overall efficiency of the large nozzle is relatively high, as the laser creates a bigger melt pool of wm = 2.2mm on average. For both nozzles, the efficiency decreases steeper above the focus than it decreases below the focus. This can be explained by three effects: First, gravity that forces particles to follow a parabolic trajectory; second, drag forces by the gas stream that merge below the focus; third, collision of two particles in radial direction with friction loss. All three effects cause a decreasing radial speed and constant or increasing axial speed of the particles with increasing standoff. This conclusion is also supported by the observations of Tabernero et al. [18] and Pinkerton and Li [15]. Validation is done with a direct comparison to cladding tracks. 28 tracks were deposited with the small nozzle and 60 tracks with the large nozzle, both with varying standoffs as listed in Table 3 on a structural steel S235 base material. The scanning path was in positive x-direction in machine coordinates, which corresponds to a turn angle of \u03b1 = 0\u00b0. Generally, the melt pool size differs significantly depending on the standoff, process parameters, and base material temperature and absorptivity. The different standoffs change the diameter of the laser spot on the base material, leading to a varying melt pool area. The laser focuses inside the nozzle, thus a higher standoff results in a bigger laser spot size. The influence of the process parameters and heat input on the melt pool size is further analyzed by Huang et al. [25]. Sections of cladding tracks were measured with a Leica DCM 3D surface metrology microscope. Surface roughness is removed with a low-pass filter and a cut-off length of 0.35mm. The resulting wavy track surface is shown in Fig. 16 for the large nozzle and standoffs between \u22125.2 and \u22124.0mm on the right side. The cross sectional area Am of each track is evaluated numerically on a length of 0.6mm. Knowing the total powder mass flow, the mean powder catchment efficiency \u03b7c from cladding tracks and the related standard deviation for this measurement length can be calculated. As shown on the left side, the melt pool length is approximated by analyzing the shape of the track end. Multiple measurements reveal that the melt pool length lm is 1.3-times the melt pool width wm on average for the applied process parameters, with the eccentricity \u03f5 = 0.8 as best fit for Eq. (11). The corresponding catchment efficiency \u03b7p from the powder flow measurement is calculated with the input of the powder flow density, standoff, melt pool area from the microscope measurements, scanning direction, and misalignment of laser and powder. Figs. 17 and 18 depict the correlation of the efficiency, with the catchment efficiency \u03b7p measured from the powder stream on the x-axis and the catchment efficiency \u03b7c measured from cladding tracks on the yaxis. The Figures show different scales due to the limited range of catchment efficiency of the small nozzle. Tracks made with the small nozzle have an irregular cross sectional area Am, leading to significant fluctuations of the actual catchment efficiency and to large error bars. However, the diagram shows a linear correlation for most data points, with a mean absolute error of 0.039 and the powder measurement slightly underestimating the actual catchment efficiency. The large nozzle deposits more uniform tracks with a broad range of catchment efficiency values. The comparison of prediction and cladding experiment results in a linear correlation with a mean absolute error of 0.049. Deviations arise from additional interactions of the powder stream with the melt pool. The effect of the hot melt pool on the gas stream cannot be considered for this powder measurement method. The fusing front and gradually solidifying tail of the melt pool may result in a bigger effective melt pool area than measured by surface metrology after processing, which could explain the underestimation of the prediction. The effect of misalignment of laser and powder as stated in Table 2 has been analyzed by depositing 18 tracks in all directions with a standoff of S = \u22129mm. The powder catchment efficiency measured from cladding tracks as a function of the turn angle \u03b1 is shown in Fig. 19. The catchment efficiency of the small nozzle does not show a clear direction dependency as expected from the adequate alignment of laser and powder. Cladding tracks made with the large nozzle are direction dependent, with a maximum catchment efficiency at 190\u00b0 and a low efficiency plateau between 250\u00b0 and 350\u00b0. As the catchment efficiency of the large nozzle varies by 15%, these fluctuations need to be considered when defining the tool path and process parameters based on a catchment efficiency prediction. Fig. 20 shows a 40mm high, 2.5D thin-walled blade that has been built with the large nozzle, considering both the spatial powder distribution and the focus misalignment. Based on the efficiency prediction, an initial standoff of S = \u22129mm has been applied for the highest efficiency. The parameters have been chosen in order that the process develops the self-stabilizing effect, making any layer height control unnecessary. The geometry of the top edge is accurate to 0.5mm relative to the predicted height. The demonstrator shows that the presented measurement methods are able to compensate certain machine and process deficiencies to achieve a high part accuracy. In the future, the powder measurement method shall be extended to inclined base materials and edges to study the deposition behavior that occurs during the fabrication of complex parts." ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003213_0094-114x(95)00089-h-Figure1-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003213_0094-114x(95)00089-h-Figure1-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 1.

We now investigate whether the same idea can be used for two gears. First, we find two pitch circles which, if they made rolling contact with each other, would provide the same angular velocity ratio as the gears.

Parts of the pitch circles have been drawn in, and their radii are shown as RPl and Rp2 . The point where they touch is the pitch point P.

In the following section, the mobility of six puzzling mechanisms is to be analyzed, which is expected to help understand the methodology. The 3-CRR mechanism, as shown in Figure 2, was proposed by Kong and Gosselin[45]. The mechanism has three identical limbs and each limb consists of a cylinder pair and two revolute joints. The three axes in the same limb are parallel. In addition, the axes of pairs on the base are orthogonal with each other. The coordinate system is shown in Figure 2. Take the first limb into consideration. The cylinder pair has two freedoms and can be regarded as the com- bination of a prismatic pair and a revolute joint. Then each limb has four single-DOF pairs. The limb twist screw system can be written as follows ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) 1 1 1 2 1 3 3 3 1 4 4 4 0 0 0; 0 1 0 , 0 1 0; 0 0 0 , 0 1 0; 0 , 0 1 0; 0 , d f d f = = = = $ $ $ $ (9) where the four screws are linearly independent and they have two reciprocal screws.

The K type thermocouple made with nickel-chromium and nickelsilicon materials is used to measure the temperature of the point A (seen in Fig. 2(a)) to provide confidence in the accuracy of the finite element model. The probing end of the wire was buried into the substrate plate. The sampling rate of the thermocouple was 10 Hz and the measurement range of temperatures was between 0 and 1300 \u00b0C. This system was depicted in detail in our previously published studies [19,20]. Fig. 2(b) shows the fabricated component with fine surface quality. However, the dimensional accuracy can not be guaranteed. As shown in Fig. 2(c), the layer width continues to widen due to the heat accumulation, especially for the last several layers. Fig. 3 shows the wall width variation from the 1th to the 40th layer. It can be seen that the wall width dramatically increased from 4.51 mm to 5.72 mm (approximately 26.8 % increased), which means that the redundant materials would be post machined and, therefore, result in lower production efficiency and higher cost. Thus, a controlled technique should be developed to deal with this problem, and the finite element model is first established to study the thermal behavior on the additively manufactured component. The Simufact.welding software (version 6.0.0) is used for thermal simulations. According to our previous study [21], it can provide the thermal distribution and the distortion prediction for the welding process with high accuracy. The geometric size of the FEM model is shown in Fig. 2(a). The wall thickness was set at 4.5 mm and the layer height was 1.5 mm. Fig. 4 shows the three-dimensional finite element mesh for the cylinder model. In the present model, linear brick elements with eight-node hexahedrons are used for thermal simulation. In addition, the software can automatically refine the elements for the area near the deposited layer from level 0 to 10. All the elements of the deposited layer were deactivated before deposition, and then activated sequentially following the heat source", " The voltage and amperage is obtained by measuring the waveform during deposition using Hall current and voltage sensor. The material properties were temperaturedependent which were obtained from Ref. [24]. A uniform coefficient of convection on all surfaces equal to 10 W (m2K)\u22121 and a radiation emissivity of 0.22 were assumed. Experimental validation was performed to prove the accuracy of the numerical simulation. It was verified by comparing the measured temperature cycling curves of point A (seen in Fig. 2(a)) with the corresponding simulated curves. The results are shown in Fig. 5, the dashed lines and solid lines are the experimental results and the simulated results, respectively. It is found that the trend in fluctuations of the simulated results approximately agrees with the actual measurements, indicating the effectiveness of the FE model. However, there are errors between the two curves, which are mainly due to the different heat dissipation conditions. In actual conditions, the heat prone to dissipation through the worktable is not considered in the FE model and, therefore, results in a lower actual temperature" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003687_1.2745063-Figure1-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003687_1.2745063-Figure1-1.png", "caption": "FIG. 1. a Orientation of an LCE film: the nematic director n is aligned with x and the sample is irradiated with light polarized in the x1 direction and b schematic of the bilayer film representation of the photostrain distribution.", "texts": [ " Thus, if the light is polarized in a certain direction, only those azo molecules aligned in this direction will absorb photons and isomerize\u2014those in other [This article is copyrighted as indicated in the article.

While we only consider polarized light, the analysis can be readily extended to unpolarized light. Consider a monodomain LCE film lying in an x1\u2212x2 coordinate system. The nematic director is oriented along x, where the angle between x1 and x is as shown in Fig. 1 a . The sample is irradiated uniformly through the thickness by light of an appropriate wavelength. For simplicity it is assumed to be polarized in the x1 direction, but the results can be easily extended to arbitrary directions in the x1\u2212x2 plane. The azobenzene molecules photoisomerize as they absorb photons, resulting in uniform in-plane photostrains ij pm that are functions of the light intensity Io. In the x , y system the nonzero components are ij pm = x pm y pm xy pm = p Io \u2212 1 2 p Io 0 ", " Although a more rigorous micromechanics analysis that considers the interaction of internal stresses and strains among the domains could be undertaken, as we will describe in more detail later this simple averaging approach seems to adequately describe the behavior observed in the literature.2 To understand the behavior when irradiated nonuniformly through the thickness, particularly nonlinear geometric effects, we have to specify information regarding the size and shape of the film. We consider a monodomain square film of side length L, and thickness t, and use the same x , y and x1 , x2 coordinate systems as before; relevant dimensions are shown in Fig. 1 b . We assume the film is freely supported and is irradiated from the top at z=\u2212t /2 by light at a wavelength suitable to cause photostrains. Furthermore, we assume that photon absorption gives rise to an exponential attenuation of the optical intensity through the thickness of the film I z = Ioe\u2212 z+ t/2 /d. 3 Io is the light intensity at the top surface and d is an attenuation length.10 The photostrain that results from photoisomerization is assumed to be proportional to the light intensity, i", " The proportionality constant is taken to be such that ps Io is the strain that would occur if the film were uniformly irradiated through the thickness with intensity Io this would be physically realized if the attenuation length d was much greater than the film thickness t . As a result, the effect of Io is incorporated into the definition of ps and the remainder of our discussion will be cast in terms of the latter. An alternative way to model the effects of the photostrain on the film deformation is to treat the film of total thickness t as a bilayer with upper and lower layers of thickness t1 and t\u2212 t1 as shown in Fig. 1 b . The photostrain is taken to have a constant value in the upper layer and to vanish in the lower layer, i.e., p z = \u2212 pl z t1 = 0 t1 z t . 5 In both the exponential and layered representations, two parameters describe the photostrain. It turns out that the macroscopic deformation of the films can be characterized in terms of a uniform midplane strain and curvature. The variation of the photostrain through the thickness effects this deformation only in an integral sense, and so we can develop an equivalence between the two representations for their effect on the macroscopic deformation, and express pl and t1 in Eq" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0002935_iros.1993.583168-Figure5-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0002935_iros.1993.583168-Figure5-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 5 Definition of vectors for walking system", "texts": [ " (1) Modeling of the robot (2) Derivation of the equations of three-axis moment (3) Computation of the trunk motion The other is a program control for walking using preset walking patterns transformed from the motion of the lowerlimbs and the trunk.

The word conjugate means, as we defined it in Chapter 1, that the gear teeth are shaped in such a manner that the Law of Gearing is satisfied, when the gear is meshed with the basic rack. In Figure 2.2, a pinion is shown meshing with the basic rack. The plnlon pitch circle radius is Rs' given by Equation (2.3), and the pitch line is the line in the basic rack which touches the pinion pitch circle at the pitch point P. The Law of Gearing states that the common normal at the contact point must pass through P. For any particular position of the rack, there is only one point Ar of the rack tooth profile whose normal passes through P, and this point must be the contact point. The pinion tooth must therefore be shaped so that its profile touches the rack tooth at Ar \u2022 28 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear The point of the pinion tooth profile in Figure 2.2 which coincides with Ar is labelled A. The line joining the contadt point to the pitch point is called the line of action, since it coincides with the common normal at the contact point, and therefore in the absence of friction the contact force must act along this line. The angle between the line of action and the tangent to the pinion pitch circle at P is called the operating pressure angle ~ of the gear pair. Since the line of action is perpendicular to the tooth profile of the basic rack, it can be seen from the diagram that, when a gear is meshed with its basic rack, the operating pressure angle of the gear pair is equal to the pressure angle of the basic rack, (2", " This result is true for any position of the basic rack. Hence, the path of contact, which is the locus of all contact points, is a segment of the same straight line. And since the line of action is always the line joining the pitch point to the contact point, the direction of the line of action is fixed, and the line of action coincides with the line containing the path of contact. We now construct the perpendicular from the pinion center C to the line of action, and the foot of this perpendicular is labelled E, as shown in Figure 2.2. The pinion circle with center C and radius equal to CE is known as the base circle, and its radius is represented by the symbol Rb \u2022 Since the rack tooth profile and line CE are both perpendicular to the line of action, they must be parallel, and the angle ECP is equal to ~r' We can then use triangle ECP to express the base circle radius in terms of the standard pitch circle radius, (2.7) Alternative Definition of the Involute 29 The shape of the pinion tooth must be such that the normal to the tooth profile at point A passes through P" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0000812_j.matchar.2021.111020-Figure2-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0000812_j.matchar.2021.111020-Figure2-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 2.

In this case, the gear pair must be assembled in the radial manner, and we must check that such assembly is feasible. The check can be made by the following simple, though long, procedure.

In cases where radial assembly is not possible in the position of Figure 12.8, we can consider an alternative position, as shown in Figure 12.9. We place the gear pair so that a tooth space of the pinion is lined up with a tooth of the internal gear, and again we calculate the ~ coordinates of the various tooth points. As before, radial assembly is only possible if each point on the pinion is closer to the ~ axis than the corresponding point on the internal gear.

During printing, the printing path is compressed, densified, and adhered to the previous adjacent layers but it still needs to maintain their shape, which cannot be fully dense. The retention of the triangular voids is therefore difficult to prevent in the perimeter region where there is no hatching in the perpendicular direction. In ductile metallic materials, failure usually occurs as a result of microscopic void nucleation and coalescence that is initiated by the presence of second phases such as carbides, non-metallic inclusions and by pre-existing voids within the microstructure", " Consequently, the tensile properties of the specimen printed in the vertical layout are significantly lower than those of the flat and side layouts, due to the existence of the very large size of defects, e.g., incomplete fusion and cross section of voids between perimeter walls that reduce the load-bearing area under stress. In addition, the interaction of load direction and voids also gives rise to the highest stress concentration at the corner of the voids, as expressed in schematic form in Figure 10(f). This causes high shear stress at that corner of the voids, leading to easier failure. These results are consistent with the tensile results of polymer and 316L fabricated by FDM process, in which the vertical layout exhibits significantly inferior tensile properties than the flat and side layout.[10,30] Layer delamination is the main failure in the vertical layout,[31] which is similar to this study that the fracture occurs at inter-layer positions. For the specimens printed in the side layout, which exhibits higher tensile properties with a slightly lower relative density than those printed in the vertical layout, this suggests that the layer delamination has greater influences on the tensile results than porosities in the vertical layout, where the printed layers are perpendicular to the loading direction", " Large variations can be expected when determining the circularity due to the wide range of void shapes in each specimen, i.e., many circular voids are included during measurements. It is interpreted that the shape of voids in the side layout has more acute angle and is more detrimental than that of the flat layout. This is consistent with fracture surfaces, where there are more fracture paths along the edge of triangular voids in side than in the flat layout. During tensile loading, due to the reduction in load-bearing area, cracks are initiated at corners of detrimentally shaped voids (Figure 10(e)), and cracks then propagate to the neighboring voids along the side of triangular void. This fracture model is in good agreement with a study, which proposed that, after microcracks and strain localizations are formed, final fracture follows a path to join up the microcracks.[38] This study has examined the effects of specimen layout on the as-sintered physical and mechanical properties of 17-4PH stainless steel fabricated by a metal-fused filament additive manufacturing process. The key results are the following: (1) The specimen layout affects the appearance of as-printed and as-sintered specimens" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003223_tro.2006.882956-Figure1-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003223_tro.2006.882956-Figure1-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 1. Tiltrotor-based rotorcraft.", "texts": [ " Effectively, Gress proved in [4] that the total number of reactive devices, namely, propellers, could in fact be reduced to two by using their gyroscopic nature. He considered tilting rotors in order to obtain the three required moments (roll, pitch, yaw). However, this mechanism suffers from a weak pitching torque and some parasitic moments. In this paper, we propose an alternative configuration where the center of mass of the UAV is located below the tilting axes, resulting in a significant pitching moment. We have constructed two prototypes of a birotor rotorcraft, as shown in Fig. 1, inspired by Gress\u2019s mechanism. The experimental results showed that this aerodynamical configuration is very promising. The advantage of this design is that the reaction torque of the motors is cancelled, since the noncyclic propellers (propellers with a fixed blade angle) rotate in different directions. This configuration is also adapted for the miniaturization of the UAV, and it results in a simple mechanical realization. In addition, our main contribution is to provide a complete model of the birotor rotorcraft, and to develop a control algorithm for stabilization and trajectory tracking based on backstepping methodology [5]\u2013[8]", " Robustness against unmodeled inputs and external forces [see Fig. 4(b)] is also observed, even if a mathematical analysis of the controller robustness is not provided in this paper. The analysis presented here has shown that hover control of a two-propeller VTOL aircraft is possible using two tilting rotors. The pitch stability is increased by combining the OLT with the LT of the two rotors. The resulting oblique tilting appears to be effective and practical. Indeed, the experimental results obtained on prototypes constructed by our team [see Fig. 1(b)] are very promising. In this paper, we have also developed a 6-degree-of-freedom model of the birotor aircraft and synthesized a nonlinear controller which leads to a satisfactory control. To the authors\u2019 knowledge, no other control law has been derived for a small tiltrotor-based rotorcraft model. [1] G. K. Yamauchi, A. J. Wadcock, and M. R.

Example of durometer mechanism", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "For many years there was no move to produce an international standard for durometers but one was eventually published in 1986. ISO 7619 is now in two parts\"\u0302 \"\u0302 ' \u0302 ^, separating a meter calibrated in IRHD from the others. Part 1 now covers the Shore A and D type meters, a meter designated AO for soft materials and a micro Shore type meter designated AM. The Shore A scale corresponds approximately to the IRHD scale and the D scale can conveniently be used for hard rubbers above about 90 Shore A. The AO meter is suitable for rubbers less than 20 Shore A, whilst the AM meter covers the normal Shore A range. As expected from its name, the meter in Part 2 of the standard covers the IRHD range. The mechanism by which the spring pressure is applied and the indentation measured varies, but Figure 8.6 shows, as an example, the principle of the IRHD meter. The type A meter uses an indentor in the form of a truncated cone, types D and AM use a cone with a rounded end, whilst type AO and the IRHD meter use a hemispherical indentor. A clear advantage of the hemispherical geometry is the elimination of the problem of rapid wear on the Shore indentors. For the A, D, AO and AM meters, there is a defined relation between spring force and hardness, i.e. the spring Short term stress-strain properties 129 force varies with indentation. The IRHD meter is different in that the spring pressure is essentially constant over the whole range, varying by 0.15 N in a 2.65 N mean force as against between 550mN and 8050 mN in the Shore A, and it is this feature that enables it to mimic the standard IRHD scale. A significant change in the latest version of ISO 7619-1 (apart from the introduction of types AO and AM) was the tightening of the tolerances on the indentor and foot geometry and the spring force. For example, the tolerance on the truncated cone diameter for type A went from 0.03 to 0.01 mm and the spring force tolerance from 80 to 37.5 mN. These new tolerances are intended to improve the accuracy of measurements (see Section 4.4) but are likely to cause very considerable problems with existing instruments not complying and making the process of calibration more difficult. The tolerances for the IRHD meter were not changed although a good case could have been made to reduce the tolerance on the spring pressure. A minimum thickness of 1.5 mm for the type AM and 6 mm for the other instruments is specified. The standard time of application of the load is 3 sec for vulcanized rubber and 15 sec for thermoplastic rubbers, which is a change from the instantaneous reading specified previously. This is of course arbitrary and a compromise between \"instantaneous\", which is very uncertain, and long enough for equilibrium to be assured, which is time consuming. It is recognized that other times may be used and, in practice, there will be those who prefer instantaneous readings and those who use 30sec as for dead load methods. Also, when testing products, all manner of unreasonable test piece geometries are used, resulting in many instances in very large variabihty. The effect of time is considered further in Section 4.5. The use of durometers on a stand is supported in 7619-1, reflecting the practice of using them as an alternative to IRHD. In fact, type AM is specified as always being so used, which completely negates it being a portable instrument. When used on a stand, there are requirements for a timer, the load on the foot and speed of application. Also, the instruments can use any suitable transducer to measure indentation and be connected to a computer in the same way as for dead load testers. The standard does not consider the relation between the Shore scales and modulus but this has been investigated by Briscoe and Sebastian\"\u0302 ^ and Qi et The UK voted negatively on the ISO 7619 standards and at the time of writing the British standard, BS 903 Part A 57^^ is the same as the 1997 version of the ISO standard.

The trajectory of the molten droplets (a) in Free flight transfer and (b) in short arc transfer.", "texts": [ " During Free Flight modes, the droplet trajectory from the wire tip to the weld pool is important. Norrish [17] describes the mechanism of metal transfer in terms of the balance of forces acting on the system, which includes gravitational force, aerodynamic drag, electromagnetic forces, vapour jet forces and surface tension. In positional free flight transfer, the gravitational force may be sufficient to exceed the axial forces which would normally project the droplet across the arc resulting in displacement of the material from the target position. This is illustrated in Fig. 2a. In addition, the common spray transfer mode only operates above a minimum transition current, a large molten weld pool is usually formed, which is undesirable for the multi-directional deposition process.. In short arc transfer, a droplet forms on the wire tip during the arcing phase, but material transfers when the wire tip contacts the base metal. Droplets transfer to the weld pool is influenced by the gravitational force less. Fig. 2b indicates that the molten metal normally transfers accurately on the target position when the correct welding parameters are used. For this reason, the short arc transfer has been used to deposit material in all positions. In addition, the positional performance of both free flight and shortcircuiting transfer may be improved by using dynamic control of transient welding current and wire feeding. These techniques are now known collectively as \u2018waveform controlled\u2019 in GMAW.

A curvilinear horn of logarithmic spirals Consider producing a horn with the external form shown in Fig. 9, but with cell tracks which are at constant angles to the centerline, similar to Fig. 8, as compared to Fig. 6. This may be accomplished by the use of logarithmic spirals which are extensively discussed by D\u2019arcy Thompson (1942) in connection with the forms of shells, horns and other biological forms. Logarithmic spirals are plane curves (Fig. 10) described by r\"beh #05 a , (54) where r, h are polar coordinates and b and a are constants. The angle between the tangent to the spiral and the radius vector r is the constant angle a. This property is suggested in the alternate name of equiangular spiral", " 11 is a cross-section of a horn with the following logarithmic spirals as the cell tracks. The problem to be solved is to find the growth velocity g that produces this horn. From Table 1 it can be seen that the center-line curve C 0 is a circle. The curves C 1 and C 2 are logarithmic spirals which spiral outwards. The curves C 3 and C 4 are logarithmic curves spiraling inwards. The constants in Table 1 have been adjusted so that all curves meet at the point (50, 0) so C 0 is a quarter of a circle. The cross-section shown in Fig. 11 is the curved counterpart of Fig. 8 in the sense that along any radius in Fig. 11 the angle between tangents to the curves C 0 , C 1 , C 2 , C 3 , C 4 are constants independent of h. The same is true for the cell tracks in Fig. 8, for any line drawn parallel to the x 1 axis (which is the analogue of r as rPR). To complete the description of the 3-D horn, whose section is shown in Fig. 11, we assume that G is always a circle, and that as a result, sections h 3 \"constant, are planes containing the x 3 axis. The cross-sections on such planes are then also circles. Curves on which (h2 1 #h2 2 )\"constant, are also circles in the interior on h 3 \"constant planes.

Qni and Qsi are respectively the normal contact forces of the ball\u2013nut and ball\u2013screw contacts, \u03b4ni and \u03b4si are respectively the normal contact deformations of the ball\u2013nut and ball\u2013screw contacts, Wni and Wsi are respectively the wear volumes of the ball\u2013nut and ball\u2013screw contacts, and \u0394\u03b4ni and \u0394\u03b4si are respectively the wear depths of the ball\u2013nut and ball\u2013screw contacts. According to Hertz contact theory, the area of contact between the ball and raceway is elliptical, which means the shape of the wear volume can be approximated as an elliptical cylinder, as shown in Fig. 1. According to traditional Archard wear theory, the wear volume is proportional to the normal contact force and sliding distance and is inversely proportional to the hardness of the material. Therefore, the wear volume, Wn\u2019 i\u00f0t\u00de, between the ith ball and the screw raceway (n\u2019 \u00bc s) or the nut raceway (n\u2019 \u00bc n) interface can be expressed as Wn\u2019i\u00f0t\u00de \u00bcK Qn\u2019i\u00f0t\u00de\u22c5Vn\u2019i\u00f0t\u00de\u22c5\u0394t 3H ; i \u00bc 1; 2:::M; (1) where Qn\u2019 i\u00f0t\u00de and Vn\u2019 i\u00f0t\u00de are respectively the normal contact force and velocity of sliding between the ith ball and the raceway, \u0394t is the working time, M is the effective number of balls, H is the hardness of the softer material (for ball screws, H is the hardness of the raceway), and K is a wear coefficient that is a dimensionless constant dependent on the material properties and lubricating condition" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003333_s0021-9797(03)00148-6-Figure5-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003333_s0021-9797(03)00148-6-Figure5-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 5.

By extending this idea, we define the convex hull of the supprting points including the contact points between the hands and the environment(Fig,3(a)). While there are many edges included in the convex hull, we extract the edges of the convex hull where a robot might fall down by the moment around the edge. As shown in Fig.3(a), we focus on three vertices j , X, and Y included in the convex hull. Since the vertex j can leave from the environment while it cannot go inside of the environment, the following inequality can be satisfied. d ~ y ) A q m , t 0, ( j = l , . . .

By using the force f, and moment mE at the GZMP on the virtual floor, we can formulate the moment around the edge including the vertices X and Y as where ez denotes the unit normal vector of the virtual floor. From eq.(19), wc can see that TL affects the moment around the edge when ( p x - py)Tez # 0. In this case, we cannot judge the moment around the edge by simply considering the relationship of position between the edge and the GZMP. Thus we redefine the GZMP as follows (Fig.3(c)): Definition 3 (GZMP(Modified)) The (modijied) generalized zem momem point pp) = [xy) y;') &p)]' is the point on the (virtual) floor at which the moment ZE generated by the reaction force and the reaction moment becomes normal to the edge of the convex hull satisfying the Proposition 2.

Since the direction of moment around the edge satisfying Proposition 1 is limited by eq.(18), the region of the GZMP is also limited. To see the region of the GZMP, we considcr the combination of two edges sharing a common vertex as shown in Fig.3(d). We consider the GZMP on the plane including two edges sharing a common vertex. By using two edges, we can divide the plane into four regions. These regions can be identified by the direction of moment around the edge defined by eq.(19). The region of the GZMP is limited to one of the four regions by using eq.(18) if both of the edges satisfy Proposition 2.

The effectiveness of the proposed humping avoidance strategy outlined in this study is demonstrated through the fabrication of a thinwall workpiece with overhanging features. Fig. 21(a) presents the 3D model of the workpiece, the sub-volumes of the workpiece are numbered and the building direction of each sub-volume are also illustrated in Fig. 21(a). The key step for the fabrication of this workpiece is the deposition of the sub-volume two. According to the geometrical feature, a contour path is chosen to fabricate sub-volume two (Note that the start position of each deposition is designate to be different for mitigating the swellings at the connection point). Humping was observed at this situation using normal welding parameters for down-hand welding. Thus, the welding parameters must be carefully selected to avoid the occurrence of humping in the positional deposition. Firstly, the weld path consists of three directions (0\u00b0, 90\u00b0, and 180\u00b0), the welding travel speed should be determined with the most restricted condition (vertical-up) to guarantee a humping free deposition. Then, according to the humping map in Fig. 19, the welding travel speed is limited in the range from 0 to 200 mm/min. Finally, the wire feed speed is determined at 2 m /min to meet its cross-section dimensions. Fig. 21(b) demonstrates a humping free surface of sub-volume which proves the effectiveness of the proposed strategy. The overall appearance of the fabricated workpiece is presented in Fig. 21(c). The present research investigated the humping phenomenon for multi-layer multi-directional WAAM process. Firstly, the mechanism of humping formation was analysed for positional deposition using GMAW in the CMT process mode. It was found that the backward metal flow under the effect of gravity is responsible for the sagged humps in the positional deposition.

Cutler and Raask 37 examined the deposition of alkali sulfates on cooled probes in a coal-fired boiler and found that the deposition rates increased nonlinearly with the sodium content of the coal (Fig. 12). The nonlinear behavior was attributed to the capture of volatile sodium by the alumino-silicate ash resulting in the release of potassium from the ash. The potassium was also deposited on the probe (Fig. 12). The presence of a thermal gradient may also cause liquid-phase migration of the fused salts. 58 As mentioned previously, Nelson and Cain 41 observed the migration of liquid trisulfates owing to a temperature gradient. However, the significance of thermal migration of liquid deposits in the corrosion process is not entirely clear, although some enrichment via this mechanism may occur.

On gradually increasing the pH from 7.0 to 11.0, a decrease in the current value was observed. The peak potential was slightly shifted in the negative direction upon increasing pH from acidic to basic. Both these changes indicate that the electrocatalysis of MTO involving both electrons and protons and the voltammetric data are completely pH-dependent. As the maximum current was observed at pH 7.0, it was selected as an optimal condition to carry out further experiments and N2 was saturated in the reaction mixture due to the control of the oxygen reduction reaction.

Unlike single metal oxide catalysis, here two metals, i.e., yttrium and iron, are involved in the electrocatalysis, which significantly altered the electrocatalytic efficiency. As explained in Figure 6B, the MTO reduction process proceeds by the conversion of the \u2212NO2 functional group into \u2212NHOH.

Gear-Tooth vernier Caliper The most direct method for measuring the tooth thickness of a gear makes use of an instrument called a gear-tooth caliper. This instrument, which is shown in Figure 8.1, is a vernier caliper, with an adjustable stop that determines the radius on the tooth at which the measurement is made. In order to make a measurement, the instrument is placed over one of the gear teeth, as shown in Figure 8.2. The two vernier scales on the caliper are used to measure the distance between the caliper jaws, and the depth of the jaw tips below the stop. Measurement by Gear-Tooth Vernier Caliper 193 On the gear, these lengths are known as the chordal tooth thickness and the chordal addendum. The tooth thickness measurement should be made with the jaw tips of the caliper touching the tooth faces near the middle of the tooth profile. For gears with zero profile shift, this would mean that the contact is at the standard pitch circle", " However, in a gear with profile shift e, the addendum as is extended by approximately e, so the middle of the profile lies at a radius approximately equal to (Rs+e). In practice, the measurement is normally made at the standard pitch circle for gears with small amounts of profile shift, and it is only for gears with large values of e that the alternative radius is used. The chordal tooth thickness and the chordal addendum are represented by the symbols t hand sc a sch ' when the measurement is made at the standard pitch circle, and we use t Rch and aRch when the measurement is made at radius R. The gear-tooth caliper is shown in Figure 8.2, adjusted so that the jaw tips touch the tooth faces at the standard pitch circle. The relations between the tooth thickness, the 194 Measurement of Tooth Thickness chordal tooth thickness and the chordal addendum can be read from the diagram, 8s ts (B.3) 2Rs tsch 2Rs sin 8s (B.4) asch RT - Rs cos 8s (B.5) These values of tsch and a sch are generally included in the specification of a gear. Figure B.3 shows the tooth thickness of a gear being measured, when the caliper jaws touch the tooth faces at radius R", " When a gear has an odd number of teeth, the pins are placed in tooth spaces which are as closely as possible opposite to each other, in the manner shown in Figure 8.8. The radii through the pin centers no longer form a straight line, and the angle between them is equal to [180\u00b0 - (180 0jN\u00bb). The relation between R' and M is then given by the following equation, M 2R' cos (9~0) + 2r (8.31) Apart from this change, the equations for finding the tooth thickness are exactly the same as those for a gear with an even number of teeth.

The divergence of chaotic orbits can only be locally exponential, since if the system is bounded, as most physical experiments are, d ( t ) cannot go to infinity. Thus, to define a measure of this divergence of orbits, we must average the exponential growth at many points along a trajectory, as shown in Figure 5-26. One begins with a reference trajectory [called a fuduciary by Wolf et al. (1985)] and a point on a nearby trajectory and measures d(t)/d0. When d ( t ) becomes too large (i.e., the growth departs from exponential behavior), one looks for a new \"nearby\" trajectory and defines a new d0(t).

The Law of Gearing is satisfied if pI coincides with the pitch point P. Figure 3.1 shows the pinion base circle, and a pair of teeth in contact. The base circle radius is given by Equation (2.20), (3.1) A Pinion Meshed With a Rack 55 and by making use of Equation (2.30), which gives the standard pitch circle radius in terms of the module, we can express the base circle radius in terms of the module and the pressure angle, ~Nm cos 4lS (3.2) Since the module m and the pressure angle 4ls are part of the specification of the pinion, the base circle radius Rb is known, and its value is constant. Any normal to the rack tooth in Figure 3.1 must be perpendicular to the tooth profile, while any normal to the pinion tooth must touch the base circle. Hence, as shown in the diagram, the common normal must be the base circle tangent which is perpendicular to the rack tooth profile, and the contact point must lie on this line.

In this circuit, the normal response of a resonant circuit to a forcing function is modified by a nonlinear magnetising inductance and the variation in magnitude of the forcing function with rotor speed. Solving eqn. 1, using the values for the magnetising inductance and current from Fig. 2 and the machine parameters from Appendix 7, a set of possible synchronous operating points can be obtaind. Plotting these points produces curves of the form shown in Fig. 4, for values of remanent magnetism varying form an opencircuit voltage of 0.5 V to 0.1 V at 50 Hz. The curves rise gradually until increasing current causes a rapid rise in magnetising inductance (see Fig. 2), and an associated sudden decrease in synchronous resonant frequency which causes the curves to bend back upon themselves. If the machine speed is increased montonically from zero, the response will follow a curve of the form shown until the knee is reached (point X for instance), at which point, increasing rotor speed must cause the operating point to jump past synchronous resonance (to point Y)", " Point B, however, represents an unstable condition, in that any change in speed will cause the machine to drop out of resonance, an increase in speed tending to cause self excitation with resonance being regained at point A, whereas a decrease will cause the machine to drop back to the synchronous mode. It is point B which is of interest, and Fig. 7 shows the curves expanded about this area. IEEPROC, Vol. 130, Pt. B, No. 2, MARCH 1983 105 2.3 Interaction between modes The interaction between the synchronous and asynchronous modes can be seen by combining the contour a = 0, for asynchronous operation, with the curves for synchronous response as shown in Fig. 4. For a given value of remanent magnetism, a machine started from rest will have a capacitor current that follows the appropriate synchronous curve (A) up to a knee point (X). If the speed is further increased, the current must jump discontinuously to point Y, which is within the area where asynchronous operation is possible. Under these conditions, an asynchronous component will grow rapidly and the terminal voltage will increase to the appropriate value. The fixed rotor poles due to remanence are destroyed and the synchronous component of current decays to zero. If the synchronous operating point is close to point X, only a small disturbance is required to initiate self excitation. a Corresponding to point X in Fig. 4 for circuit shown in Fig. 3 b Corresponding to point Y The effect of this transition on the synchronous machine can be seen from the vector diagrams in Fig. 8 (for circuit, see Fig. 3). Below resonance, the load angle 6 is such that The MMF Fx produced by the current flowing, reinforces the remanent MMF F2 to produce the resultant MMF Fo.

We then obtain an expression for the unit vector normal to the tooth surface at A, Normal Section at A We define the normal section at any point A as the section through the gear perpendicular to the helix tangent at A, or in other words, perpendicular to n~. Generally, we will consider the normal section through a point A which lies on the tooth surface, but the definition remains valid whether A lies on the tooth surface or not. Normal Profile Angle at Radius R Figure 13.20 shows the normal section through point A on the tooth surface at radius R. The shape of the tooth profile in a normal section is unknown at present, but we will describe later in this chapter how the shape can be calculated. If C is the centre of the transverse section through A, as shown in Figure 13.19, the line CA also lies in the normal section, since the unit vector n~ along CA is Normal Profile Angle at Radius R 339 perpendicular to n~. Earlier, we def ined the transverse profile angle ~tR as the angle between CA and the profile tangent in the transverse section. We now define the normal profile angle ~nR in a similar manner, as the angle between CA and the profile tangent in the normal section. The unit vector n~ in Figure 13.20 points in the direction of the normal to the tooth surface at A, and is therefore perpendicular to any line touching the surface at A. One such line is the helix tangent at A, so the vector n~ must be perpendicular to nA, which means that it lies in the JJ plane of the normal section. A second line touching the surface at A is the profile tangent in the normal section, so n~ is also perpendicular to this direction. The angle in Figure 13.20 between the unit vectors n~ and n~ is equal to ~nR' since one is perpendicular to the profile tangent, and the other is perpendicular to line CA.

While the RCM movements of an instrument are realized by an extracorporeal manipulator, a wrist is often integrated at the distal end for dexterity enhancement such that suturing and knot tying can be more conveniently conducted. Many wrists adopt serial-structured designs. The desire for design compactness and proximal actuator arrangement often leads to the choice of cable actuation [17,24,47,48], including the famous EndoWrist design shown in Fig. 5A. Shape memory alloy actuation is also a possible approach to realize compact wrist designs [49,50]. However, the motion responses are relatively slow. For example, the thermal exchange took approximately 8 s to complete in Reference [49]. To enhance the wrist\u2019s structural rigidity, serial and parallel linkages are also proposed. Representative examples using serially connected coupler actuation [51] and a 3-PRS structure [52] are shown in Fig. 5B and Fig. 5C, respectively. However, these linkage-actuated wrists may have limited motion ranges. For example, motion ranges of the pitch and yaw joints are only 40\u00b0 in Reference [51], whereas the parallel-linkage design in Reference [52] has a pitch motion from \u201350\u00b0 to 70\u00b0 and a yaw motion of 64\u00b0. In comparison, the EndoWrist in the da Vinci system has a pitch motion range of 70\u00b0 and a yaw motion range of 90\u00b0 [17]. The pulleys used in the cable-driven wrists and the pinned joints in the linkage-driven wrists have limited potentials in further miniaturization", " Continuum mechanisms, which are coined in Reference [53] and transmit forces and motions via the structures\u2019 continuous deformations, have been explored. Examples of continuum wrists for multi-port procedures using a 2-DoF bending segment are shown in Figs. 5D [27] and 5E [54], featuring a multibackbone design and a concentric-tube design, respectively. The structural and modeling simplicity makes the design popular in many surgical robotic systems for single-port and NOTES applications [55\u201357]. To further improve the structural simplicity, a deformable wrist design was recently proposed as shown in Fig. 5F [58]. The rigidity is also enhanced as elastic strips were used to replace elastic wires. In these continuum wrists, fatigue may seem a problem due to the repetitive bending. However, superelastic nitinol can easily undergo 105 cycles of deformation [59], which fulfill the requirement for a multiuse instrument. Besides stick-like instruments with an RCM manipulator, the patient-side surgical manipulator can also be designed to directly realize multi-DoF intracorporeal movements.

This equivalent load was studied by Wellauer and Tooth Load on the Equi valent Spur Gear 513 Seireg [8], who considered the cantilevered plate shown in Figure 17.15. The plate is loaded by a force of intensity w, acting along an oblique line at an angle v with the plate edge. They showed how to calculate the bending moment intensity at point A, which can then be expressed in the form (WH/Ch ), where H is the height of point Aw above point A. The quantity Ch is defined as the bending moment intensity if the plate were loaded along a line parallel with the plate edge, divided by the maximum bending moment intensity when the plate is loaded with the same force intensity along the oblique line", " They have therefore been recalculated [11], using essentially the original method, and they can be represented by the following expression, (17.61) The angle v must be expressed in degrees, as indicated by the notation, and the equation is valid for values of v between 0\u00b0 and 25\u00b0. In order to calculate the value of Ch required for a particular helical gear, we must choose the value of v to be used in Equation (17.61). On the helical gear, the generator inclination angle vR varies with the radius R. Hence, the load on the plate in Figure 17.15 should really lie along a curve, as shown in Figure 17.16, instead of a straight line.

However, the link weights cause significant linear deflection along the negative direction of the Z -axis and angular deflection around the positive direction of the Y -axis. These results are consistent with the intuitive deflection analysis. In this configuration, the direction of balancing force passes through the axis of joint 2 as demonstrated in Fig. 8 . As a result, rather than compensating the link weights to decrease the deflections, the balancing force adversely increases the total linear deflection along the Z -axis and the total angular deflections around the Y -axis. In fact, the deflections caused by the link weights illustrated in Fig. 12 are the sum of the gravity-induced deflections of each link. Fig. 13 shows the contribution of each link on the linear deflections and the angular deflections in each direction.

To carry out this calculation Faraday\u2019s law requires that the flux density be integrated over a surface enclosed by the pole winding. The surface itself is arbitrary as long as the contour that encloses the surface (the surface edge) lies in the pole winding as required by Faraday\u2019s law. Here the surface in Fig. 6 will be used to simplify the surface integral that must be done. To do this integral, the usual approximations and approach for completing a flux integral are used. In particular, the edge of the surface located at is taken to be in one conductor and the flux integral is then done for each conductor. This leads to integrals. Then, within each conductor, the integral is done at each location within the conductor and the results are averaged to obtain the flux linked by that conductor (28) Defining (28) can be rewritten as (29) Equation (29) says that the flux linked by a pole winding is the number of turns around that pole times the average of the flux integral done at every location in the pole winding", " This result can be written alternately as (30) by re-labeling the locations of the surface\u2019s edge and defining the partial flux as (31) Next writing (30) as and letting go to infinity, to zero, and to zero while holding constant, at a value equal to the area of the winding, the sum in (29) can be taken over into an integral (32) Of course (32) still says that the flux linked by the pole winding is equal to the number of turns per pole times the average value of the flux linked at different points within the winding. To find the flux linked by the pole winding, the magnetic flux density must be integrated over the surface in Fig. 6 for fixed values of and to obtain the partial flux in (31). Then this result must be averaged over the winding. To compute the partial flux, the surface in Fig. 6 is broken into five parts as shown in Fig. 7. The partial flux is then found for each of these five surfaces and the results are added together to find the total partial flux. The integral over the surface labeled one is an integral over the pole face. This surface is exactly the same for any location of the total surface\u2019s edge. Thus the average in (32) for the surface labeled one just reduces to the flux linked by surface one.

This method of fabrication paves the way toward the fully parallel self-assembly of 3D microelectronic components directly onto planar silicon chips and result in functional and novel devices ranging from the world\u2019s smallest jet propulsion engines[40] to energy storage devices, biosensors, ultracompact electronic components, and sensors which all benefit from the cylindrical 3D geometry.[11,12,41,14\u201319,26,39] If applied to the whole system containing passive components as well as active electronics, even more compact 3D devices with novel functionalities can be expected in the near future", " The global development in this direction resulted in the widespread use of electronics in many facets of human life, such as in consumer electronics and medical applications, and they are continually evolving to offer better performance, longer and more reliable operation, and smaller, lighter form factors. These improvements are directly related to the scale and weight of the electronic components whose performance and functionality are measured relative to their projected area or volume. Conventional technologies relying on 2D processes, namely those applied for the fabrication of semiconductor chips and main boards, face severe shortcomings in improving areal and volumetric performance (Figure 3), and as a result, 3D integration has been seen in the past decade as a potential solution within the electronics industry (Figure 1b).[7] Assembly of these 3D electronic systems is a demanding and quality sensitive process, but, advances during the last century resulted in a powerful portfolio of tools and processes that improved the overall efficiency of assembling complex systems\u2014for instance, industrial robots and automatic machines replaced the assembly line worker in state-of-the-art foundries manufacturing mesoscopic parts, resulting in the almost full automatization seen nowadays", " Due to the challenges associated with the manufacture and integration of the passive devices, electronic systems are mostly assembled from discrete components, including active and passive building blocks wired together through an interconnect board, a printed circuit board, or a set of wires. While there has been great progress toward enhanced integration density in the micro- and nanoscale silicon-based technologies, further miniaturization of these systems is limited mainly due to difficulties in integrating passive components into the overall manufacturing process. The development of 3D mesoscale selfassembly aims to provide a promising approach to tackle this issue (Figure 3) while maintaining compatibility with conventional lithography and printing based fabrication techniques. Initial interest in mesoscopic self-assembly was inspired by the structures and mechanisms observed in the chemical, materials, and biological sciences, and mainly focused on the self-assembly of atomic and molecular structures necessary for the synthesis of membranes, crystals, molecular monolayers, and polymeric ordered structures.[24,58\u201360] The chemomolecular self-assembly, being a one or two step process, provided strategies[21,60] for static and dynamic generation of nanostructures of diverse functionalities such as macromolecular and metal organic assemblies,[21,61\u201363] assembly of graphene sheets[64] and Adv", " As the cabling of power lines possess their own inductance and resistance, the capacitors should be placed close to the integrated circuit to avoid a sudden drop of the power line voltage due to a high load from the active integrated circuit side that would normally lead to a temporal interruption or malfunction in the entire circuit. Additionally, modern integrated circuits may have several power lines fed at various positions and thus require numerous decoupling capacitors connected through a PCB (Figure 3 or 9c) with an integrated circuit and power supply. This leads to a substantial use of the PCB area and requires newer small-scale devices with higher areal capacitance density for each new generation of the product. Swiss-roll architectures favor the fabrication of capacitors using a simple initially planar layout that corresponds to the double plate electrostatic capacitor (Figure 11a,b).[13,18] Selfassembly of this initially planar structure leads to a Swiss-roll (Figure 3) with several windings, where capacitance increases to almost twice its initial value due to overlapping of neighboring windings (Figure 11c) and as result increasing the effective area of the capacitor. This process is significantly simpler than the sequential layer by layer fabrication of capacitor plates used for conventional surface mounted device capacitors (Figure 3), and is performed in a parallel fashion on the wafer scale (Figure 11d). The demonstrated structures can possess more than 1 \u00b5F mm\u22122 with a footprint area of only 13 \u00d7 200 \u00b5m2 and more than 20 windings.

Comparing with other types of actuators, soft pneumatic actuators have more application value. There are three main types of structural forms in soft pneumatic actuators including pleated structure [22\u201325], cylindrical form [26,27], and fiber-reinforced configuration [28,29]. Compared to the last two forms, the soft actuator with pleated multi-chamber structures (as shown in Fig. 1(a)) is a more promising candidate for applications in soft robots, because the input pressure of pleated actuators is smaller and actuators can be reversely bent under the action of negative pressure, which can effectively improve the bending range of soft robots [22]. Modeling of the bending angle and tip contact force of soft actuator generated by the pleated pneumatic actuators is challenging [30] due to the material nonlinearity, the mutual contact between adjacent chambers of pleated structure, and contact between the actuator tip and external object", " Compared with single-chamber soft actuators, the complex geometry of the pleated actuators improves the deformability of actuators but also increases the difficulty of analyzing their mechanical properties. Especially, when the adjacent chambers are squeezed under the input pressure, it greatly increased the difficulty of modeling the tip contact force of the actuator since it is difficult to estimate the unexpected deformations of the chambers\u2019 lateral walls. actuators with different pleated structures. This study investigates the behavioral characteristics of the soft actuator with pleated structures, as shown in Fig. 1(a). The bending and contact force modeling methods for pleated actuators are proposed. The main contributions of this paper are stated as follows: (1) a model is proposed considering the bending properties of materials by using the constant volume principle of the elastomer material and NeoHookean hyperelasticity theory. (2) Furthermore, an analytical model of tip contact force is obtained to capture the relationships of contact force, input pressure, and bending angle of the soft pleated actuator when its tip is in contact with the external environment. (3) A series of comparison experiments and FEM analysis are presented and discussed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed analytical model for pleated actuators with different specifications in working condition. This study focuses on the soft actuator, and the design is shown in Fig.1(b),(c), previously proposed in our earlier work [7], which consists of a connector, an extensible upper actuator, and an inextensible but flexible lower actuator. The upper actuator structure involves n-1 uniform chambers, the cross-section of which is combined by semicircle and rectangle, and one bigger end chamber. We design the dimensions of the upper actuator with pleated structures so that the two lateral walls of the chambers are thinner, and have a greater surface area than the other exterior walls", " The soft actuator is made by using silicone rubber material (Dragon skin 30), while the fiber paper is from inextensible material. When the soft actuator is pressurized, the expanding lateral walls of two neighboring chambers will push against each other, which results in a preferential elongation of the upper actuator. Meantime, the lower actuator has to bend to adapt this deformation because of the restraint of fiber paper. Therefore, the soft actuator could obtain smooth and continuous bending deformation.

When the gear is viewed in the axial direction, as in Figure 15.8, POl appears as the point where the radius in the nxl (O) direction meets the pitch cylinder.

Although he abandoned this mechanism later, and turned to a slider-crank mechanism for this task (Gibson 1998), it stirred the interest to systematically analyze the characteristics of linkages in theory. The Watt linkage started the work to realize specific paths using coupler curves. Machining a plane is very easy today. However, in the second half of the 18th century, milling machines were not invented yet. It was not an easy job to make a prismatic pair of high quality with small clearance at that time" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003947_0-387-29012-5-Figure11-2-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003947_0-387-29012-5-Figure11-2-1.png", "caption": "Figure 11-2.

Note that molten pool geometry parameters (depth and length) are introduced here to help describe the molten pool geometry. The depth and the length of the molten pool are defined as the distance from the weld pool underneath wire electrode to the bottom and the tail of the molten pool, as illustrated schematically in Fig. 14(a). As illustrated in Fig. 13(a) to (f), the molten pool size increases in both depth and length with the increase in WFS. In GMAW welding, the welding current increase with the increase of WFS [56]. According to Eq. (1), the initial momentum of the metal flow increases, which may lead to humping. However, with a deeper weld pool, a portion of the metal flow momentum might be dissipated and thereby no humped weld bead forms. Based on the results, it is assumed that a long and shallow weld pool represents a high chance of humping occurrence while a short and deep weld pool means a low chance of humping occurrence. Thus, molten pool dimensional ratio r (defined as r=l/d) was introduced as an indicator representing the chance of humping occurrence. With different welding parameters.

EA - E'A' (13.66) A three-dimensional view of the base cylinder is shown in Figure 13.18, and the lines EA and E'A' are drawn in on the diagram. In view of Equation (13.66), it is clear that the line AA' makes an angle ~b with the gear axis. In addition, every point on this line is a point on the gear tooth surface, since Equation (13.66) is satisfied at every point along the line. When a curved surface contains a family of straight lines, these lines are called generators of the surface, so The Generator Through Point A 333 the line AA' is known as the tooth surface generator through point A. Since lines EA and E'A' are both tangent to the base circles, the four points A, E, A', and E' lie in a plane which touches the base cylinder along line EE'. Hence, the generator through A must touch the base cylinder at a point on line EE', as shown in Figure 13.18, and this point is labelled G. It was stated in Chapter 2 that an involute can be thought of as the curve traced out by the end of a cable, when the cable is unwrapped from the base circle. In Figure 13.18, lines E'A' and EA would represent the cables corresponding to the transverse sections at plane z=Q and plane z. Since every point of line A'A lies on the tooth surface, it is possible to think of the plane E'A'AE as forming part of a flexible sheet, unwrapping from the base cylinder. We can therefore represent an involute helicoid in the following manner. We consider a flexible sheet, wrapped round the base cylinder, with its end cut off so that it makes an angle ~b with the gear axis. The involute helicoid is the surface swept out by the end of the sheet, when it is unwrapped from the base cylinder", " Coordinates of Point G For any point A of the tooth surface, there is a generator passing through the point, and this generator touches the base cylinder at some point G. Very often, we will want to find the position of G corresponding to a particular point A, and we can do this most conveniently by deriving expressions for the cylindrical coordinates (RG,eG,zG), in terms of the coordinates (R,eA,Z) of point A. Since G lies on the base cyl inder, the radi us RG is equal to the base cylinder radius Rb \u2022 And since G lies on the axial line through E, the angular coordinates of G and A differ by ~tR' as we can see from Figure 13.15. Finflly, length EA in Figure 13.18 is equal to (Rb tan ~tR)' as we stated in Equation (13.55), and the length GE is equal to EA divided by (tan ~b). Hence, the coordinates of point G are related to those of A in the following manner, eG eA - ~tR Properties of Point G Rb tan ~tR z - tan ~b ( 13.67) (13.68) (13.69) There are two important properties associated with point G, shown in Figure 13.18. First, point G lies on the Properties of Point G 335 gear helix through BO and B. And secondly, the generator GA is also the helix tangent at G. Before we prove the two properties, we will explain why they are significant. In the first place, if the generator through A coincides with the helix tangent at G, it is a very simple matter to find its direction. In addition, we know that the intersection of the tooth surface with any coaxial cylinder is a gear helix, and we know that the tooth profile in the transverse section at plane z meets the base circle at point B", "35), which gave the angular coordinate difference (eA_eAO ) between two points AO and A, lying on the same gear helix at plane z=O and plane z, (13.70) This equation can be adapted to give the angular difference ~e between any pair of points on the same gear helix, when nei ther point lies in the plane z=O, (13.71) where ~z is the difference between the z coordinates of the two points. We now determine whether points G and B satisfy this equation. Since point E lies on the axial line through G, as shown in Figure 13.18, the difference between the e coordinates of B and G is equal to the angle between the radii through Band E. This is the angle ECB, shown in Figure 13.15, and its value is given by Equation (13.57). angle ECB tan qJtR (13.72) 336 Tooth Surface of a Helical Involute Gear Point B lies in the transverse plane z, and the axial distance between Band G can therefore be found from Equation (13.69), Rb tan 9>tR tan 1/Ib (13.73) It is evident that the coordinate differences given by Equations (13.72 and 13", "77) Direction of the Normal to the Tooth Surface at A 337 This equation can be interpreted as stating that to get from Co to A, we can first go to G, and then move along the helix tangent at G. Since we know that line GA is the generator through A, we have proved that the helix tangent at G coincides with the generator through G and A. We can therefore use Equation (13.76) to give the direction of the generator through A. In moving from Co to A by the route just described, the distance that we would travel along the generator is equal to the coefficient of nG in Equation (13.77). This qu&ntity /.I is of course equal to the length GA, as we can see in Figure 13.18. Direction of the Normal to the Tooth Surface at A The simplest method for finding the normal to the tooth surface at A is to find the directions of any two tangents through A. The two tangents define the tangent plane, and the direction of the normal must be perpendicular to both of them. One line which touches the tooth surface at A is the generator through A, since the entire generator lies within the surface, and is therefore tangent to it. Hence, the normal to the tooth surface at A is perpendicular to the generator direction nG A second tangent direction can be seen in /" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0000492_978-981-15-0833-2-Figure2.40-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0000492_978-981-15-0833-2-Figure2.40-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 2.40 A picture of Greek stone thrower \u201cBallista\u201d", "texts": [ " Single bow appeared in the Neolithic.

There fore the relative positions of the two bodies are also defined", " Depending on the complexity of the kinematic structure of the legs both problems may provide many solutions since both involve non-linear equations. In most cases the equations are difficult to solve in closed form. This paper focuses attention on fully parallel mechanisms with pure translational motion. In a previous paper (Parenti-Castelli et aI, 1998) the three dof parallel manipulator presented in (Tsai, 1996), henceforth called Tsai manipulator, was analyzed for evaluating the sensitivity of the mechanism to geometric parameter variation and manufacturing tolerances. Fig. I shows the schematic of the Tsai manipulator that features three independent legs whose endings are joined respectively to the base and to the platform by universal joints. Each leg comprises an actuated prismatic pair, between the two universal joints, that controls the leg length. The Tsai manipulator provides the platform with a pure translational motion with respect to the base. The model presented in (Parenti-Castelli et aI, 1998) retained only the topology of the Tsai manipulator taking into account a quite general geometry", " In this paper, a closed-form solution for the forward kinematics of a kind of parallel manipulator is obtained. An approach is developed to formulate the basic kinematic equations. Using this approach, the derived solution is neither nwnerical nor polynomial, but a simple closed-form solution, i.e., there is no need of iterative nwnerical procedure. Four possible solutions to the forward displacement problem for this manipulator are obtained. 2. Geometry and Coordinate Systems The considered three-legged parallel manipulator is shown in Fig.I. Two of the legs have SPS structure. The third leg has R\\-LR2-LP3-LR3 structure (the R\\ revolute joint is attached to the base and R3 revolute joint - to the moving platform, respectively). The active (actuated) joints are: i) the three prismatic joints of the legs; and ii) the revolute joint R\\ of the third leg which is connected to the base platform.

The prismatic joints are actuated while the revolute joints are passive. This constitutes three-DOF of planar motion - two translational and one rotational - of the movable triangle (see Fig. I). Fig. 1: Double-Triangular planar manipulator Observing the work envelope of this structure, it seems that the area covered by the moveable triangle's center (output link), especially when a combination of translational and rotational motion is required, is relatively small. Fig. 2 depicts the work volume of the Double-Triangular manipulator for a translational motion and for a combination of translational and rotational motion.

Fig.1 gives a three dimensional picture of the Roschel Octahedron, which we are going to analyze below. The octahedron has five fundamental loops (L = 5) and the number of relative degrees of freedom provided by the joints is I-J; =24.

Screws of a particular sin-screw form S= sin 0 8, characterised by pitch Ps= a/tan 0, have found recent use in representing finite displacements of a rigid body.

This result has been established for a number of particular kinematic situations (Parkin, 1992; Huang et.al., 1994; Hunt et.al., 1995).

The values required for the three variables wh ' Wg and vh are achieved by means of change gears or stepping motors in the hobbing machine. There are two additional settings which must be made when the hobbing machine is being set up. These are the shaft angle ~, which is the angle between the axes of the hob and the gear blank, and the cutting center Hobbing 459 distance CC, which is the distance between the two axes. In the remainder of this section, we will determine the values required for the machine parameters wh ' wg ' vh ' E and CC, if the hob is to cut a gear with Ng teeth, normal module mn , normal pressure angle ~ns' helix angle ~sg' and normal tooth thickness t nsg Before we discuss the details of the cutting process, we will first prove that, as usual, the gear will have the same normal module and normal pressure angle as those of the hob. We showed in Chapter 15 that the minimum condition for correct meshing of two crossed helical gears is that their normal base pitches should be equal. The corresponding result, when we consider a gear being cut by a hob, is that the normal base pitch of the gear will always be equal to that of the hob. Since the normal base pitch of the hob is equal to that of the basic rack, we can conclude that the normal base pitches of the gear and the basic rack are equal, and the gear can therefore mesh correctly with the basic rack. As always, the standard pitch cylinder of the gear is defined as its pitch cylinder when it is meshed with the basic rack. The normal pitch Pns and the normal pressure angle ~ns of the gear must 460 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears then be equal to those of the basic rack, and hence equal to those of the hob. This result remains true, whether or not the cutting pitch cylinders of the gear and the hob coincide with the i r standard pi tch cylinders. In order to cut the gear described earlier, we must therefore use a hob with the same normal module and normal pressure angle as those specified for the gear. We consider next how to cut the required number of teeth, and the correct helix angle. When a rack cutter is used to cut a gear, the helix angle of the gear depends on the angle at which the cutter is set, so it might be expected that the helix angle of a gear being hobbed would be determined by the value of the shaft angle ~. This is not the case, however, and we will now show that the number of teeth cut in the gear blank, and the helix angle at which they are cut, depend only on the values chosen for wh ' Wg and vh \u2022 In Chapter 5, we defined the cutting point as the point where the cutter makes a cut on the final tooth surface, and we showed that this point corresponds to the contact point when the gear blank and the cutter are regarded as a pair of meshing gears. The situation is no different when the cutter is a hob. We described in Chapter 15 how to find the position of the contact point in a crossed helical gear pair, and this point becomes the cutting point when we consider a hob cutting a gear. As in any metal-cutting process, the shape of each tooth cut in a gear blank is the envelope of positions through which the hob moves, relative to the gear blank. For the purpose of determining this shape, it is helpful to neglect the gashes in the hob thread, so that the threads are regarded as continuous, and we can imagine that the teeth are formed in the gear blank by grinding, rather than by cutting. If the hob and the gear blank were a pair of crossed helical gears, there would always be at least one thread of the hob making contact with the gear. Hence, for the hob and the gear blank, there is always at least one thread which is in contact with the final tooth surface of the gear. We label the points in contact AOh on the hob, and AOg on the gear. After the hob turns through exactly one angular pitch, the position of the thread containing point AOh is occupied by the Hobbing 461 next thread, and the corresponding point Alh on this thread will now be the cutting point, touching a point A1g on the gear tooth adjacent to the tooth containing AOg. As the hob rotates, we can identify a sequence of points such as AOh and Alh on the hob threads, and AOg and A1g on the gear teeth. The points on the hob lie in the same transverse section and are evenly spaced, at angular intervals equal to the angular pitch. Of course, if the hob has only one thread, the angular pitch is 360 0 , and the points all coincide. On the other hand, the gear points do not lie in one transverse section, due to the feed of the hob in the direction of the gear axis, and each point is displaced axially a small amount relative to the next point. We now consider the position on the gear of point ANg , the cutting point when the hob has turned through Ng angular pitches. Since the gear is to have Ng teeth, points AOg and ANg must be on the same tooth. Hence, if the gear is a spur gear, ANg must lie on the axial line through AOg' while if the gear is a helical gear, ANg must lie on the gear helix through AOg. The distance through which the hob is fed during one revolution of the gear blank is called the feed rate f. Since the magnitude of f is small compared with the tooth dimensions, point ANg always lies close to the axial line through AOg. The gear blank must therefore turn through approximately one revolution while the hob turns through Ng angular pitches, which is a rotation equal to (Ng/Nh ) revolutions. In order to meet this requirement, the angular velocity ratio (wh/wg ) must be approximately equal to (Ng/Nh ), or exactly equal, when a spur gear is being cut. In the case of a helical gear, the small difference between the two ratios is one of the factors which determine the helix angle of the gear, as we will show later in this section. Once the settings are chosen for the hobbing machine, the value of (wh/wg ) is established, and the number of teeth that will be cut in the gear is then given by the following expression, NhWh Integer closest to (--) Wg (16.15) 462 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears Having found how the value of Ng depends on the hobbing machine angular velocities wh and wg ' we now consider the helix angle. If points AOg and A1g lie at radius R, the positions of these points at various times can be plotted on a developed cylinder of radius R, as shown in Figure 16.5. The times at which the hob touches points AOg and A1g are called T and T', and the diagram shows the positions of AOg at time T, and A1g at time T'. Since the feed of the hob is in the direction of the gear axis, the line in the diagram joining AOg and A1g is in the same direction. The diagram also shows the gear helices through these points, which appear as straight lines making an angle ~Rg with the gear axis, and these are labelled helix 0 and helix 1. The point on helix 0 in the transverse section through A1g is labelled Ag \u2022 The position of helix 0 at time T' is shown by the dotted line, and the positions of Aog and Ag at this time are shown as AOg and Ag \u2022 In Figure 16.5, the length AOgA1g represents the hob feed between the times T and T', and AgAg represents the arc Hobbing 463 length moved by point Ag in the same time interval. Since helix 0 and helix 1 are gear helices on adjacent teeth at the same radius, their positions at any instant are exactly one tooth pitch apart. A1g and Ag lie on the two helices in their positions at time T', so the distance between these points is equal to the transverse pitch. We therefore obtain the following expressions for the three lengths, A A' 9 9 A A' 19 9 The time interval required for the hob to rotate through one angular pitch can be expressed in terms of the hob angular velocity, T' - T We now use triangle AOgA1gAg to relate the three lengths, A A' - A A' 19 9 9 9 and when their values are substituted, we obtain the following relation between wh ' Wg and vh ' 211' vh -N-- tan l/IR hWh 9 ( 16.16) The feed rate f of the hob was defined earlier as the distance moved by the hob during one revolution of the gear blank. It is customary to express the feed velocity vh in terms of f, _f_ (211') Wg (16.17) and with this substitution, Equation (16.16) takes the following form, tan l/IRg 211'R ( 16.18) 464 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears The helix angle of the gear at radius R is expressed in terms of the lead Lg by Equation (13.31), tan IPRg and Equation (16.18) then becomes a relation giving the lead that will be cut in the gear, l(NhWh ) f - Ng Wg ( 16.19) The quantity (Ng/Lg) is equal to the reciprocal of the axial pitch, as we showed in Equation (13.36), and this can be expressed in terms of the helix angle IPsg by means of Equation (13.42), _1_ Pzg sin IPSg Pns (16.20) Hence, Equation (16.19) can be put into two alternative forms, giving either the axial pitch or the helix angle of the gear, _1_ Pzg l(NhWh ) f - Ng Wg (16.21 ) (16.22) It is an interesting result that, as we pointed out earlier, the helix angle cut in a gear is not affected by the shaft angle ~ of the hobbing machine. This angle is generally set equal to the standard shaft angle ~s' or in other words, equal to the sum of the helix angles of the gear and the hob, ~s (16.23) We showed in Chapter 15 that a pair of crossed helical gears can mesh correctly, even when the shaft angle is not equal to the standard shaft angle. It therefore follows that a hob can cut an accurate involute gear, even when ~ is not exactly equal to ~s. However, for the remainder of this section, we will assume that the shaft angle is set equal to ~s' and in a Hobbing 465 later section of the chapter we will discuss the consequences of a small change in this value. The last setting of the hobbing machine to be considered is the cutting center distance CC , and its effect on the tooth thickness of the gear. As we discussed earlier, the cutting process can be considered as equivalent to meshing with zero backlash. An expression for the normal backlash in a crossed helical gear pair was given in Equation (15.96), The length ~Cp Equation (15.47), in this expression (16.24) was defined by (16.25) and all the other quanti ties are defined on the pitch cylinders, as indicated by the notation. We are considering, at present, a hob cutting a gear blank when the shaft angle ~ is set equal to the standard value ~s. In this case the cutting pitch cylinders coincide with the standard pitch cylinders, as we proved in Chapter 15. If we replace RP1 and Rp2 in Equation (16.25) by Rsg and Rsh ' and set the backlash in Equation (16.24) equal to zero, these two equations give an expression for the normal tooth thickness cut in the gear, (16.26) The expression in brackets in this relation represents the hob offset. When the normal tooth thickness t h of the hob is ns equal to O.5Pns' Equation (16.26) has exactly the same form as Equation (16.12), which gave the normal tooth thickness of a gear cut by a rack cutter. If the normal tooth thickness of the hob is greater than O.5Pns' the normal tooth thickness of the gear is reduced by the same amount. Whatever the value of t nsh ' the effect of a change in the hob offset on the tooth thickness of the gear is identical to the corresponding effect caused by a change in the offset of a rack cutter. In Chapter 5, we stated that the tooth thickness of a gear cut by 466 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears a hob is generally calculated as if the gear were cut by a rac k cutter. We have now shown that thi s procedure is essentially correct, prpvided the hobbing machine is set with its shaft angle ~ equal to the standard value ~s' There is a second manner in which the cutting action of a hob resembles that of a rack cutter. In the discussion following Equations (15.74 and 15.77), we showed that the path of contact in a crossed helical gear pair touches each base cylinder, and makes an angle (~- 'tp1) with the line of centers, when viewed in the direction of the axis of gear 1. Hence, in the case of a hob cutting a gear, the path followed by the cutting point touches the base cylinders of the gear and the hob, and makes an angle (~- 'tpg) with the line of centers, when viewed in the direction of the gear axis. If the shaft angle is set at the standard value, this angle becomes (1[2 - 't ), as shown in Figure 16.6, and the path of the sg . cutting point then appears identical with the corresponding path when the gear is cut by a rack cutter. It is for this reason that, when we check for undercutting in a gear, we can regard the hob as equivalent to a rack cutter. We check that Swivel Angle 467 there would be no undercutting if the gear was cut by the rack cutter, and this implies that there will also be no undercutting when in fact the hob is used. Swi vel Angle Earlier in this chapter, we stated that it is common practice to specify the lead angle of a hob, instead of its helix angle. It is also customary to specify the angular setting of the hobbing machine by means of the swivel angle, rather than by the shaft angle. Since a hob is shaped like a screw, its helix angle is always large, particularly in the case of a single-thread hob, for which the helix angle is typically about 85\u00b0. The helix angle of the gear being cut may of course have any value, but in the majority of gears, the magnitude of the helix angle is between 0\u00b0 and 30\u00b0. In general, right-handed hobs are used to cut right-handed gears, and left-handed hobs are used for left-handed gears. In most cases, therefore, the shaft angle is approximately equal to a right angle, and the swivel angle is defined as the amount by which the shaft angle differs from a right angle. For example, if the axis of the gear is vertical during the cutting process, the swivel angle a is defined as the angle which the hob axis makes with the 468 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears horizontal. The standard shaft angle was defined by Equation (16.23), as the sum of the gear and the hob helix angles. We express the helix angle of the hob in terms of its lead angle, by means of Equation (16.13 or 16.14), and we obtain the following expression for the standard shaft angle, ,f, + 90\u00b0 - A \"'sg - sh (16.27) where the plus and minus signs refer to a right or Hobbing Machine Gear Train Layout 469 left-handed hob. We now define the standard swivel angle os' so that it differs by a right angle from the standard shaft angle, (16.28) As discussed earlier, the hobbing machine is generally set so that the shaft angle is equal to the standard shaft angle, and it then follows that the swivel angle is equal to the standard swivel angle. Figures 16.7 and 16.8 show the relations between the shaft angles and the swivel angles when a right-handed hob is used to cut a spur gear or a right-handed helical gear, while Figures 16.9 and 16.10 show the corresponding relations when a left-handed hob is used to cut a spur gear or a left-handed helical gear. Hobbing Machine Gear Train Layout We showed in Equations (16.15 and 16.22) that the number of teeth and the helix angle cut in a gear depend on the feed rate f and the angular velocity ratio (wh/wg ) in the hobbing machine, NhWh Integer closest to (----) Wg (16.29) 470 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears sin I/I sg l(NhWh ) f - Ng Wg (16.30) It is helpful to examine how the gear trains in some typical hobbing machines are arranged, in order to achieve the values of Ng and I/I sg required in the gear. One type of hobbing machine is shown schematically in Figure 16.11. The rectangular boxes in the diagram represent gear pairs or gear trains, with the output-input ratio in each case given by the constant k. The symbol ki stands for the ratio of the index change gears, kf is the ratio of the feed change gears, and the other k values represent the gear trains built into the machine, whose ratios cannot be altered by the user. The values of wh and wg , and of the hob feed velocity vh ' can be read from the diagram in terms of the input angular velocity w 1 ' (16.31) (16.32) Hobbing Machine Gear Train Layout 471 (16.33) The feed rate f was given by Equation (16.17), in terms of Wg and vh ' and when these are expressed by means of Equations (16.32 and 16.33), we obtain a relation between the feed rate and some of the gear ratios in the hobbing machine, f The terms in brackets are combined into a single constant, known as the machine feed constant Cf , whose value is provided by the manufacturer of the hobbing machine. The feed rate is then expressed solely as a function of the ratio kf of the feed change gears, f (16.34) To obtain the ratio (wh/wg ) in terms of the hobbing machine gear ratios, we express wh and Wg by means of Equations (16.31 and 16.32), As before, the terms in brackets are combined into another constant, the machine index constant Ci , whose value is also provided by the manufacturer, and the angular velocity ratio is then given by the following expression, C\u00b7 1 k.\" 1 (16.35) We substitute this expression into Equations (16.29 and 16.30), and we obtain the number of teeth that will be cut in the gear, and its helix angle, in terms of the hobbing machine gear ratios, NhC. Integer closest to ( __ l) k i (16.36) {16.37l We now determine how the machine ratios should be 472 Gear Cutting I I, Helical Gears chosen, in order to cut a gear with the number of teeth and helix angle required. The feed rate f and the hob angular velocity wh are chosen to obtain good metal-cutting characteristics. The values depend on the size of the hob, the hardness of the material being cut, and the surface finish required. For more details, the reader should consult references such as the Gear Handbook [2]. Once a value for f is. chosen, the required ratio kf for the feed change gears is found from Equation (16.34), f Cf (16.38) The value chosen for wh is obtained by setting the input speed change, shown in Figure 16.11, to a suitable value. With the feed change gear ratio already selected, the index change gear ratio is used to determine both the number of teeth cut in the gear, and its helix angle. We choose the ratio ki so that it satisfies Equation (16.37), in order to obtain the required helix angle, NhCi ki f sin ~Sg (16.39) (1rm + N ) n g When this value for ki is substituted into Equation (16.36), we find that we also obtain the correct number of teeth, because the magnitude of the term (f sin ~Sg/1rmn) in the expression for ki is always very much less than 0.5. It is sometimes difficult to find change gears which provide exactly the value of ki given by Equation (16.39). Once the change gears have been chosen, their actual ratio ki should be calculated, and this value is substituted into Equation (16.37), to give the helix angle that will in fact be cut in the gear. Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine There is one major problem associated with hobbing machines, when they are designed in the manner shown in Figure 16.11. If a second cut is required, as is often the case, it is necessary to disconnect the feed drive, in order Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine 473 to return the hob quickly to its starting position. It is then very difficult to reset the machine, with the work table and the hob in exactly the correct positions. This problem can be overcome if a differential is incorporated into the hobbing machine. In order to determine the relation that must be maintained between the hob feed, the work table rotation and the hob rotation, we once again consider Equation (16.30), We use Equation (16.17) to express the hob feed rate f in terms of the feed velocity vh ' and we obtain the relation which must be maintained throughout the cutting process between the hob feed velocity, the table angular velocity, and the hob angular veloci ty, (16.40) A gear train with one degree of freedom can always be represented by a linear equation relating the angular velocities of the input and the output shafts. A differential is a gear train with two degrees of freedom, and it has three shafts, either two input and one output, or one input and two output. The angular velocities of the three shafts are always related by a single linear equation. Hence, as we can see from Equation (16.40), if the hob feed, the work table drive and the hob drive were all connected to the three shafts of a suitable differential, they would then always maintain the correct relative positions. The differential may be a simple planetary gear train, or one which is constructed of bevel gears. In either case, the output angular velocity w3 is a linear combination of the input angular velocities w1 and w2 ' and can therefore be represented by the following equation, (16.41) The constants k7 and ka of the differential depend on the design of the gear train, and need not concern us here. 474 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears The complete layout of the hobbing machine is shown in Figure 16.12, where the differential is represented as a simple planetary gear train. The hob drive is connected to the sun gear of the differential, the table drive is connected to the planet carrier, and the feed is connected to the internal gear. As before, the index change gears and the feed change gears are represented by symbols ki and kf , and now there is a third set of change gears, the differential change gears, represented by the symbol kd \u2022 The constants k1 to k6 are the fixed ratios of the gear trains in the hobbing machine. The constant k6 represents the ratio of a worm and gear, connecting the differential change gears to the internal gear of the differential. This ratio is shown with a minus sign, since the hand of the helix in the worm is chosen so that a positive angular velocity in the worm produces a negative angular veloci ty in the gear. We pointed out earlier that the number of teeth and the helix angle cut in the gear depend on the feed rate f and the Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine 475 angular velocity ratio (wh/wg ). We therefore need to express these two quantities in terms of the hobbing machine gear ratios. We start by writing down a number of relations between the angular velocities, Wh k1w1 (16.42) Wg k2ki k3w3 (16.43) vh k2kik4kfw3 (16.44) w 2 k2kik4kfkd(-k6)w3 (16.45) The feed rate f, which was given by Equation (16.17), can now be expressed in terms of the gear ratios, f As before, the terms in brackets are combined into a single quantity, the machine feed constant Cf , and the feed rate is then given simply in terms of the feed change gear ratio, f (16.46) When Equations (16.42 and 16.43) are used to express wh and wg ' the angular velocity ratio takes the following form, wh k1w1 Wg k2k3kiw3 and the relation between w 1 and w3 is found from Equations (16.41 and 16.45), The last two equations are combined to give the angular velocity ratio in terms of the gear ratios, and we use Equation (16.46) to express the ratio kf in terms of the feed rate f, (16.47) 476 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears We now define the machine index constant Ci and the machine di fferent ial constant Cd as follows, C. 1 k1 k2 k3k7 k3 k7Cf k1k4 k6kS As usual, the values of the machine constants Cf ' Ci and Cd are all provided by the manufacturer of the hobbing machine. Ci is a ratio, but Cf and Cd are lengths, since they are defined in terms of the feed rate f, which is the distance moved by the hob during one revolution of the work table. When the constants are substituted into Equation (16.47), we obtain the final expression for the angular velocity ratio, (16.4S) This expression is substituted into Equations (16.29 and 16.30), and we obtain the number of teeth and the helix angle that will be cut in the gear, corresponding to the feed rate f and the change gear ratios ki and kd in the hobbing machine, C\u00b7 fkd Integer closest to [Nh(k: + c)] 1 d (16.49) (16.50) Once again, we must determine how the change gear ratios kf , k i and kd should be chosen, in order to cut a gear with Ng teeth and helix angle ~sg' As before, we choose the feed rate f from metal-cutting considerations, and the ratio kf is then given by Equation (16.46), (16.51) If we are cutting a spur gear, or in other words a gear with zero helix angle, we can satisfy Equation (16.50) by setting the value of kd equal to zero, and choosing the value of ki as follows, Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine k. 1 477 (16.52) The conventional method for cutting a helical gear is to use the same value for ki , and to choose kd in a manner which then satisfies Equation (16.50), Cd sin IPsg Nh '/I'mn (16.53) An alternative expression for the required differential change gear ratio is found by combining Equations (16.20 and 16.53), (16.54) When we compare the last two equations, it is clear that it is much easier to select suitable change gears, giving the correct value for kd , if we design the gear so that its axial pitch Pzg is a round number, rather than its helix angle IPsg. There are times when it is difficult, or even impossible, to find change gears which provide the exact values for ki and kd , given by Equations (16.52 and 16.53). For example, when the value required for Ng is a large prime number, we cannot obtain the exact value for ki , since most sets of change gears do not contain gears with more than 120 teeth. Also, when the helix angle ~sg is very small, it may be difficult to obtain a sufficiently accurate value for kd \u2022 When these situations occur, we can choose the index gears so that their ratio ki differs slightly from the value given by Equation (16.52), and the differential change gears are then used to ensure that Equation (16.50) is still satisfied with sufficient accuracy. Since the index change gear ratio is close to the value given by Equation (16.52), it can be represented by an expression with the following form, k. 1 (16.55) where the quantity ~ may be either positive or negative. This expression for ki is substituted into Equation (16.50), and we obtain the corresponding value of the differential change gear ratio required to cut the correct helix angle, 478 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears (16.56) We have determined the values of ki and kd in a manner that satisfies Equation (16.50), so we know that the correct helix angle will be cut. It is now necessary to substitute the values of ki and kd into Equation (16.49), in order to confirm that the gear will also be cut with the correct number of teeth. The expressions for ki and kd given by Equations (16.55 and 16.56) are substituted into the right-hand side of Equation (16.49), with the following result, (16.57) As we pointed earlier, the magni tude of the term (f sin ~sg/wmn) is always less than 0.5, so with these values of ki and kd , the number of teeth cut in the gear will indeed be equal to the number required. The change gear ratios given be Equations (16.55 and 16.56) can be used for cutting either helical or spur gears, whenever it is difficult to obtain the values given by Equations (16.52 and 16.53). It is interesting that the quantity a has cancelled out from the expression in Equation (16.57). This means that there is no theoretical limit to the value of a which can be used, and the ratio ki may therefore differ considerably from the value given by Equation (16.52). In practice, however, it is usually easier to select the differential change gears to obtain an accurate value for kd , if the index gears are chosen so that their ratio is close to the value given by Equation (16.52), and the magnitude of a is therefore small compared wi th 1. It is evident that a differential is useful in the design of a hobbing machine, since it facilitates the selection of the necessary change gears. However, the original purpose for which the differential was introduced, as we discussed earlier in the chapter, was to maintain the correct relation between the hob feed, the work table rotation and the hob rotation, during a rapid return of the hob to its starting position. Figure 16.13 shows how this purpose is achieved. The drive is disconnected, by means of a dog clutch, between the feed change gears and the feed drive. An auxiliary motor, Theoretically Correct Shape for the Hob Thread 479 known as the hob rapid traverse motor, is then used to drive the hob feed. The drive passes through the di fferent ial, causing the work table to turn at exactly the correct speed, so that the helical teeth in the gear mesh continuously with the threads of the hob. During the entire return motion of the hob, only a very small rotation of the table is required, compared with the many revolutions that take place while the gear is being cut. Hence, the return of the hob can be carried out quite quickly, without damage to the gearing driving the work table. Theoretically Correct Shape for the Hob Thread We stated in Chapter 5 that a hob whose thread profile is straight-s;ded in the normal section will not cut exact involute tooth profiles. We are now in a position to estimate the amount of error, and to determine the correct normal 480 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears profile in the hob thread. In Chapter 15, we proved that two involute helical gears can mesh with crossed axes, and maintain a constant angular velocity ratio. The hobbing process is essentially the same as the meshing of a pair of crossed helical gears. It therefore follows that, in order to cut correct involute profiles in the gear, the thread of the hob must also have the shape of an involute helicoid. In other words, the thread has an involute profile in the transverse section. The corresponding profile in the normal section is a convex curve, and not a straight line. However, because the helix angle of a hob is so large, the profile in the normal section is extremely close to the straight line. Hence, when a straight-sided hob is used to cut gears, the resulting error in the gear tooth profiles is generally small. We can estimate this error in the following manner. We described a method in Chapter 13 for calculating the profile of the normal section through a helicoid. We now use this method to find the profile of the normal section through the hob thread. We calculate the distances, at the thread tip and at the top of the fillet, between this profile and its tangent at the standard pitch cylinder, as shown in Figure 16.14. The profile of a straight-sided hob would coincide with this tangent, and a hob of that type would therefore cut too deeply into the teeth of the gear, in the regions near the fillet and near the tip. Figure 16.15 shows the normal section through an Effect of a Non-Standard Shaft Angle 481 exact involute helicoid tooth, and it also shows the profile we obtain when the gear is cut by a straight-sided hob. The maximum differences between the two profiles are approximately equal to the distances described earlier, by which the normal section profile of the involute hob deviates from the straight line. As we can see in Figure 16.15, the tooth shape cut by a straight-sided hob is similar to the shape of a tooth cut with tip and root relief. The errors caused by the use of a straight-sided hob are therefore sometimes beneficial, and this is one of the reasons for the continued use of straight-sided hobs, when true involute hobs are also readily obtainable. There are times, however, when the errors caused by straight-sided hobs may be excessive. This is often the case for gears cut by multi-thread hobs, or by single-thread hobs of large module, whose helix angles are usually less than 85\u00b0. Whenever there is a possibility that a straight-sided hob may cut too much tip and root relief in a gear, the procedure just described can be used to determine whether a true involute hob should be used. Effect of a Non-Standard Shaft Angle In an earlier section of this chapter, we described how to calculate the tooth thickness cut in a gear, when the shaft angle ~ of the hobbing machine is set equal to the standard value ~s. We stated at that time that we would still obtain a 482 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears correct involute profile in the gear tooth, even if the values of E and Es wer~ not the same. The only effect of the altered shaft angle is a change in the tooth thickness, and we will now discuss briefly how the new tooth thickness can be found. Since it is not generally necessary to make this calculation, we will simply outline the steps, without presenting all the equations. When the shaft angle is not equal to its standard value, the cutting pitch cylinders of the gear and the hob do not coincide with their standard pitch cylinders. The first step is therefore to calculate the cutting pitch cylinder radii R~g and R~h. Knowing the normal thread thickness t nsh of the hob at its standard pitch cylinder, we then calculate its normal thread thickness t nph at the cutting pitch cylinder. To find the normal tooth thickness cut in the gear, we regard the hobbing process as the meshing of a crossed helical gear pair with zero backlash. An expression was given in Equation (15.96) for the normal backlash in a crossed helical gear pair, The length ~cp in this equation was defined by Equation (15.47), as the difference between the center distance and the sum of the pitch cylinder radii. For the situation of a hob cutting a gear, ~cp would represent the difference between the cutting center distance and the sum of the cutting pitch cylinder radii, We combine these equations, and set the backlash Bn equal to zero, to obtain the normal tooth thickness t npg cut in the gear. The final step is to calculate the corresponding normal tooth thickness t nsg of the gear at its standard pi tch cylinder. If we carry out this calculation, we will find that the normal tooth thickness t nsg cut in the gear is almost independent of the shaft angle E. In other words, the tooth thickness is hardly affected by a small change in the shaft Geometric Design of a Helical Gear Pair 483 angle, provided of course that the cutting center distance is left unchanged. However, the radii of the cutting pitch cylinders are very sensitive to the shaft angle value. In particular, a small change in the value of ~ can move the cutting pitch cylinder of the hob right off the surface of the hob thread. In the absence of experimental evidence, it is not certain what effect this may have on the tooth surface quality. Therefore, although the shaft angle need not theoretically be set equal to its standard value, it is nevertheless recommended that in practice this value should continue to be used. Geometric Design of a Helical Gear Pair In the final section of this chapter, we outline a procedure by which we can choose the helix angle, the profile shift values and the gear blank diameters, for a pair of helical gears intended to mesh on parallel shafts at an arbi trary center di stance C. Since the standard center distance depends on the helix angle, (16.58) it would appear that we can always choose the helix angle so that the standard center distance Cs is equal to the center distance C. In this case, the pitch cylinder of each gear would coincide with its standard pitch cylinder. However, as we will show, it is not always practical to choose the helix angle in this manner, and there is no particular advantage in doing so. When the gears are cut by a pinion cutter, the helix angle of each gear is equal to that of the cutter, so the choice of ~s is limited by the cutters that are available. When a rack cutter is used to cut the gears, the cutter veloci ty v r and the gear blank angular veloci ty must be related by Equation (16.11), 484 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears This equation must be satisfied exactly, because an incorrect value for vr would result in uneven spacing of the teeth on the gear. However, when ~s is chosen so that Cs is equal to C, it may be impossible to find change gears giving the exact relation between vr and wg \u2022 In general, it is probably easiest to obtain the required helix angle when the gear is cut by a hob, and the differential change gear ratio is given by either Equation (16.53) or Equation (16.56). Even in this case, it may be difficult to find a set of change gears giving a sufficiently small error. The effort required is seldom justified, because a gear pair can be designed quite satisfactorily, assuming only that Cs is approximately equal to C. The procedure is essentially the same as the one described in Chapter 6, for the design of a spur gear pair. For the reasons just outlined, it is generally best to choose the helix angle ~s so that the gears can be cut wi thout difficulty, and at the same time the standard center distance Cs is slightly less than the center distance C. The value of Cs should lie within the range given by Equation (6.14), C (16.59) The design procedure now consists in the choice of suitable profile shift values, and the gear blank diameters, in order to obtain the backlash required, and adaquate values for the working depth and the clearances at each root cylinder. We consider the meshing geometry in a transverse plane, and the design steps are then identical to those used in the design of a spur gear pair. For a helical gear pair, it is customary to specify the normal backlash Bn' rather than the circular backlash B. It is therefore necessary to calculate a number of the gear parameters in the transverse plane, before we can consider the transverse plane geometry. The values of mt' Rs1 ' ~ts' Rb1 , Rp1 ' ~p' ~tP' Ptp' and Bare found from Equations (13.148, 13.150, 13.151, 13.152, 14.28, 14.7, 14.8, 14. 10 and 14.72).

We use the method described in Chapter 6, and in particular Equations (6.45 - 6.53), to carry out the necessary steps. Since the procedure was explained in Chapter 6, the equations will be presented here with very little explanation. We start by writing down the transverse tooth thicknesses at the pi tch cylinders, 1 2\"(Ptp-B) + tlttp (16.69) 1 2\"(Ptp -B) - tlttp (16.70) where tlttp is a quantity chosen by the designer, to increase the tooth thickness in one gear, and reduce it in the other.

Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears 487 Numerical Examples Example 16. 1 A 55-tooth helical gear with normal module 4 mm, normal pressure angle 20 0 and helix angle 30 0, is to be cut with a normal tooth thickness of 6.915 mm.

The differential ratio can be achieved with good accuracy by two gear pairs, having ratios of (24/66) and (59/69). It is not always easy, however, to find change gears which give the required ratio. In the case described in this example, it would have been simpler if the gear pair had been designed with an axial pitch of 40 mm, in which case the required differential change gear ratio would have been exactly (25/80). Example 16.3 When lead screws and other transfer mechanisms are converted from inches to mms, it is sometimes necessary to introduce a factor of 25.4 into their drives. This factor requires a gear with 127 teeth, which is difficult to cut using conventional change gear ratios, because 127 is a prime number, and most sets of change gears do not contain gears with more than 120 teeth. Use Equations (16.55 and 16.56) to choose the ratios to cut a 127-tooth spur gear wi th a single-thread hob, when the hobbing machine has a feed rate of 0.020 inches, and the machine constants Ci and Cd are 24 and 0.5 inches.

Chapter 17 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears Introduction The calculation of the tooth stresses in a helical gear is considerably more complicated than the corresponding calculat ion for a spur gear. The contact stress and the fillet stress in each tooth depend on the intensity of the load, and on its position. Since the load intensity varies, as the position of the contact line moves up or down the tooth face, it is not easy to decide when the maximum stresses will occur. As we pointed out in Chapter 11, we consider in this book only the static stresses that would occur if the gears were not rotating. The actual stresses that exist in normal operation are found by multiplying the static stresses by various factors, to account for dynamic effects, type of loading, and so on. Values for these factors are given in the AGMA Standard referred to in Chapter 11 [6]. The method described in this chapter for calculating the static stresses is based on the AGMA method, but differs from it in certain respects. A summary of the differences will be presented at the end of the chapter. Tooth Contact Force In a helical gear pair, there are generally several tooth pairs which are simultaneously in contact. The contact in each tooth pair takes place along a straight line, which coincides with one of the generators in each tooth. In order to calculate the tooth stresses, we assume that the load intensity w is constant along all the contact lines. The value 490 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears of w at any instant is then equal to the total contact force W, divid.d by the total contact length Lc' w (17.1) In this section of the chapter, we determine the value of W, corresponding to any specified value of the applied torque. And in the following section, we will describe how to calculate the contact length Lc. The direction n~ of the normal to the tooth surface at A, when A is a point on the contact line, was given by Equation (14.94), n~ = cos \"'b [sin t/ltp nx(O) + cos t/ltp ny(O)] - sin \"'b nz(O) (17.2) In the absence of friction, the contact force acts in the direction opposite to n~, and its component parallel to the gear axis is therefore (w sin \"'b). Hence, the component perpendicular to the gear axis, which is the useful component, is equal to (W cos \"'b) \u2022 The base cylinder of gear 1 is shown in Figure 17.1, with Contact Length 491 the plane of action of the contact force touching the base cylinder. The diagram also shows the component of the contact force perpendicular to the gear axis. We take moments about the axis, to obtain a relation between the applied torque M1 and the contact force W, (17.3) and we use the same method to find the corresponding relation between the contact force and the torque M2 appl ied to gear 2, (17.4) The contact force is found from either of these equations. By combining the two equations, we obtain a relation between M1 and M2 , which is the same as Equation (11.3), the corresponding relation between the torques applied to a pair of spur gears. (17.5) Contact Length As we stated earlier, there generally several tooth pairs in contact at any instant, and the contact length Lc is the sum of the contact lengths on each of these tooth pairs. In this section, we will derive a general expression for Lc' It turns out that we do not often need to make use of the general expression, since the cases required for the stress analysis are always special, and therefore simpler. However, it is a matter of interest to have the general result, and it also helps to determine when the maximum and minimum values of Lc occur. A transverse section through the gear pair is shown in Figure 17.2, with the plane of action touching the two base cylinders. As usual, the ends T1 and T2 of the path of contact are the points where the tip cylinders intersect the plane of action. Figure 17.3 shows the plane of action, with the axial lines through T1 and T2 meeting the transverse plane z=O at T10 and T20 , and meeting the transverse plane z=F at T1F and T2F \u2022 The region of contact is the rectangle T10T20T2FT1F. We stated in Chapter 14 that the lines of contact on the different contacting tooth pairs can be represented by a set of diagonal lines in the region of contact, each making an angle \"'b with the gear axis, and with a vertical spacing equal to the transverse base pi tch Ptb. To find the length of the contact lines in the rectangle, it is helpful to construct two additional triangles T'T 10T1F and T10T\"T20 , as shown in Figure 17.3. The value of Lc is then found as the length of the diagonal lines in triangle T' T\"T 2F' minus the lengths in triangles T'T 10T1F and T10T\"T20 \u2022 We proved in Chapter 14 that the lengths T' T 1 F and T 1 F T 2F are equal to mFPtb and mpptb' where mF and mp are the face contact ratio and the profile contact ratio, given by Equations (14.68 and 14.64), _1_ Ptb F tan \"'b (17.6) Contact Length 493 The plane of action. In addition, the length T'T2F is equal to mcptb' where mc is the total contact ratio, equal to the sum of mF and mp , (17.8) In order to find the value of Lc' we first consider a general triangle of height mPtb' where m can represent any of the contact ratios me' mF or mp. This triangle is shown in Figure 17.4, and the upper contact line is shown in a typical position, lying a vertical distance ePtb below the top corner of the triangle, where e is any number between 0 and 1. The number of contact lines in the triangle is equal to 494 Tooth Stresses in Hel ical Gears (n +1), where n represents the integral part of the number e e (m-e). If e is greater than m, there are no contact lines in the triangle, and the value required for ne is -1. We therefore define a function, n int(f) (17.9) where f is any number, and n is the largest integer which is less than or equal to f. If, for example, f has the values 2.2, 1.0 and -0.3, the corresponding values of n are 2, 1 and -1. The val ue of n e can then be expressed by the funct ion, n e int(m-e) (17.10) In the triangle shown in Figure 17.4, the upper contact line has a length (m-w)ptb/sin ~b' The next contact line is shorter than the first by Ptb/sin ~b' and so on. The total contact length Le can therefore be expressed as an arithmetic series, whose sum is given by the following expression, (17.11) We now apply this result to the three triangles in If we use this method to calculate the contact length Lc for various values of e, we will find the following results. Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 495 The value of L is always a minimum when e is zero, and a c contact line passes through the upper corner T10 of the region of contact. And the value of L is a maximum when e is equal to c [mF - int(mF)], and a contact line passes through the other upper corner T1F of the contact region. Minimum and Maximum Values of Lc For the purpose of the stress analysis, we would expect to be most interested in the minimum value of Lc' since this corresponds to the maximum load intensity. Now that we know that the contact length is a minimum when a contact line passes through T10 , it is possible to find simpler expressions for the value Lcmin \u2022 We can simplify the expressions further, if we consider only gear pairs in which every transverse section has either one or two contact points. This condition means that the profile contact ratio lies between the following limits, < 2 (17.16) and this range includes all gear pairs of normal design. In the transverse section shown in Figure 17.2, there are two points Q and Q' marked on the plane of action. Point Q lies a distance Ptb below T l' and Q' lies a distance Ptb above T2\u2022 If the diagram represented a spur gear pair, Q and Q' would be the points on the path of contact corresponding to the ends of the period of single-tooth contact. In a helical gear pair, there is generally no period of single-tooth contact, because the total contact ratio mc is usually larger than 2. However, Q and Q' would represent the ends of the period of single-tooth contact in any particular transverse section, and it is therefore still customary to refer to these points as the end points of single-tooth contact. The region of contact is shown again in Figure 17.5, with the axial lines through Q and Q' cutting the transverse plane z=O a~ QO and QQ' and cutting the transverse plane z=F at QF and Qp.. We have stated that the value of Lc is a minimum when a contact line passes through point T 10. There must simultaneously be a second contact line through QO' since the distance between T10 and QO is equal to the transverse base pitch Ptb' Due to the symmetry of the rectangle, we can also argue that Lc is again a minimum when there are contact lines through T 2F and QF' We now consider a particular gear pair, with the contact lines shown in Figure 17.5. One contact line passes through point T10 , while a second line starts at QO' and intersects the plane z=F at point AF , somewhere between QF and QF' For this situation to be possible, the length mFPtb must be less than (2-mp)ptb' as we can see from the diagram. Such a gear pair is therefore defined by the condition, (17.17) and will be referred to as a very low face contact ratio (VLFCR) gear pair. A spur gear pair, in which the face contact ratio is zero, would fit into this category. The condition given by Equation (17.17) is equivalent to the statement that the total contact ratio mc is less than 2. This means that there are periods of the meshing cycle when only one tooth pair is in contact, which is the situation shown in Figure 17.5. The contact length Lcmin for this case can be read directly from the diagram, L . cmln F cos \"'b (17.18) Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 497 The same region of contact is shown in Figure 17.6, but the contact line has moved up, so that it now passes through point Qp., and a new contact line is about to enter the region at T2F \u2022 During the period when the contact line moves between the positions of Figures 17.5 and 17.6, there is only one tooth pair in contact, and the contact length Lc remains constant, with the value equal to Lcmin given by Equation (17.18). The region of contact for a second gear pair is shown in Figure 17.7. The contact line which starts at QO now intersects the plane z=F at a point between QF and T1F \u2022 The face contact ratio must lie wi thin the following range, 498 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears < (17.19) and this type of gear pair will be described as a low face contact ratio (LFCR) gear pair. We know that the contact length is at its minimum value, since one contact line passes through T10 \u2022 To calculate the value of Lcmin ' we take the length of the contact line through QO' and we add the length of the short contact line near T2F , L . cmln F cos 1/Ib + Ptb (m +m -2) sin 1/Ib F P The expression is simplified if we use Equation (17.6) to express Ptb in terms of F, L . cmln (17.20) Lastly, we consider gear pairs in which the face contact ratio is greater than 1, > (17.21) Gear pairs that fall within this category are known as normal helical gear pairs, since most helical gear pairs are designed with a face contact ratio larger than 1. The region of contact for a gear pair of this type is shown in Figure 17.8, with the contact lines in the positions Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 499 corresponding to the minimum contact length. Starting from the left, there is one contact line passing through QQ' then there are a number of complete contact lines stretching from the bottom edge to the top edge of the region, and finally there are either one or two lines which intersect the right-hand edge. To find the value of Lcmin' we consider in turn each of the three groups of contact lines just described. We start by defining two new quantities nc and nF , as the integer parts of mc and mF , (17.22) (17.23) The number of contact lines crossing the upper edge of the region is nF , which means that the number of complete lines is (nF-1). The total number of contact lines is nc ' so the number crossing the right-hand edge is (nc-nF). Hence, the contact length Lcmin is found as follows, L . cmln Ptb \u2022\u2022 1. [1 + mp (nF-1) + (m -n ) + (m -n +l)(n -nF-1)] sIn \"'b c c c c c The result is then simplified, and expressed in terms of the face-width F, L . cmln 500 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears We pointed out earlier that the maximum load intensity on a gear tooth corresponds to the minimum contact length, and for this reason we derived expressions for Lcmin ' However, as we will show later in this chapter, the fillet stress is often a maximum when the contact line passes through the corner T1F of the contact region, and this occurs when the load intensity is a minimum. We therefore also need expressions for Lcmax ' the maximum contact length. Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc lie in the following range, < The contact length is again the sum of the two lengths, and, as usual, we express the result in terms of F, 5{)1 (17.27) 502 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears lower edge of the region is then equal to (nFP+2), and the total number of contact lines in the region is (nF+2). Hence, the number of complete contact lines is (nFP+1), and the number of lines crossing the left-hand edge of the region is (nF-nFP)' By considering the three groups of contact lines described earlier, we-obtain the following expression for the contact length, As before, we simplify this result, and express Lcmax in terms of F, Contact Stress In the last section of Chapter 14, we proved that when A is a contact point between a rack and a pinion, the line of contact through A and the common normal at A both, lie in the plane of action. The same is true when A is a contact point between a pair of helical gears. To prove this statement, we need only consider the imaginary rack between the gears, and make use of the result just stated, first for one gear and the imaginary rack, and then for the second gear and the imaginary rack. The plane of action for a gear pair is shown in Figure 17.12, with the contact line GA making an angle..pb with the n direction, as we proved in Equation (14.93). Near z point A, the tooth surfaces can be represented by two circular cylinders in contact, with their axes lying in the plane of action. Their radi i are shown as Pc 1 and Pc2' with the subscript c indicating that these are the radii of curvature when we make a section through the cylinders perpendicular to the line of contact. If we make a transverse section, as shown in the diagram, the cylinders appear as ellipses. For gear 1, the semi-minor axis of the ellipse is Pc1 ' while the semi-major axis is equal to (pc 1/cOS ..pb)' The radius of Contact Stress 503 curvature Pt 1 at point A in the transverse section through the tooth profile is then equal to the radius of curvature at the corresponding point of the ellipse, 2 Pc l (17.31) The corresponding equation for gear 2 can be written down immediately, (17.32) The maximum contact stress 0c between two cylinders of radii Pc1 and Pc2 was given by Equation (11.5)," ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0000492_978-981-15-0833-2-Figure13.2-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0000492_978-981-15-0833-2-Figure13.2-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 13.2 Approximate synthesis of path generation", "texts": [ " Due to this reason, Freudenstein and Levitsky were both credited as the pioneers in modern kinematics of mechanisms (Angeles 1997).

In the third set, multiple-track and multiple-layer simulations were carried out to identify the features of grain structure formed in consecutive layers with several different scan strategies, as shown in Fig. 6. In this study, small scale simulations were conducted to advance the understanding of solidification behavior and subsequent as-built grain structures that are likely present regardless of the scale of the process, because the melt pool and heat effected zones are localized within the scale of the simulation shown in this study. In addition, the powderscale thermo-fluid flow simulation and the grain structure simulation are extremely time-consuming and thus limited to small scale problems. In all the simulations, the cell spacing used in the CA mesh is set to 1", " This is representative under the simplifying assumption that additional layers or trackswill result in a repeated pattern similar to how the second layer or track interacts with the first layer or track, i.e. that each subsequent layer interacts only with the powder and one previously deposited layer, meaning the remelting depth is less than the layer height. Based on the two-track simulation result presented in Section 3.2, a second powder layer is spread on the solidified tracks, and then another two tracks (labeled Track 3 and Track 4) are scanned as shown in Fig. 6 (a). This case is referred to as \u201cML-Z\u201d (multiple-track, multiple-layer with Z-shaped tracks). The melt pool sizes for Track 3 and Track 4 are listed in Table 4. The width and depth of the overlap region between the two tracks are 41.25 \u03bcm and 25.9 \u03bcm, respectively, with the overlap region of the first layer partially remelted. Although the remelted depth between layers depends on location across the tracks, the mean remelt depth is 31.25 \u03bcm.

As a consequence, the mechanical behavior of the build will likely be anisotropic, which is one of the main performance concerns for additive manufacturing [2]. To provide insight into the microstructure development and resulting texture in various layer-wise scan strategies, another two layer-wise scan strategies are considered: ML-S shown in Fig. 6(b) and ML-RT90 shown in Fig. 6(c). These two scan strategies have the same raster pattern for the first layer as ML-Z, but a different scan direction on the second layer. The ML-S case (Fig. 6(b)) has a counterdirectional scan direction compared with the first layer, while the MLRT90 (Fig. 6(c)) has a 90\u00b0 layer-wise rotation angle. Different layer-wise scan strategies lead to the different alignment of melt tracks and thermal profiles along the build direction, which, based on the understanding obtained in the previous sections can significantly change the microstructure, as illustrated in Fig. 19.

The normal to the involute at A must touch the base circle at some point E, since this is the defining property of the involute. If line EA cuts the next tooth profile at A', the normal to the second tooth profile at A' must also touch the base circle, and therefore coincides with line EAA'. Hence, a line which is normal to one involute is also normal to other involutes of the same base circle. To prove that the length AA' is equal to the base pitch, we make use of Equation (2.8), which states that EA is equal to arc EB. Referring again to Figure 2.7, we have the following relations, AA' EA' - EA arc EB' - arc EB arc BB' Since the involutes shown in Figure 2.7 are the profiles of adjacent teeth, arc BB' is by definition equal to the base pitch, and the equation can be written, AA' (2.25) We have therefore proved the statement made earlier, that the distance between adjacent tooth profiles, measured along a common normal, is equal to the base pitch. The definition of the base pitch given in Equation (2.22) would not apply in the case of a rack, because both the base circle radius and the number of teeth are infinite.

Tooth profile, N=36, ~s=14.5\u00b0.", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "Of all the many types of machine elements which exist today, gears are among the most commonly used. The basic idea of a wheel with teeth is extremely simple, and dates back several thousand years. It is obvious to any observer that one gear drives another by means of the meshing teeth, and to the person who has never studied gears, it might seem that no further explanation is required. It may therefore come as a surprise to discover the large quantity of geometric theory that exists on the subject of gears, and to find that there is probably no branch of mechanical engineering where theory and practice are more closely linked. Enormous improvements have been made in the performance of gears during the last two hundred years or so, and this has been due principally to the careful attention given to the shape of the teeth. The theoretical shape of the tooth profile used in most modern gears is an involute. When precision gears are cut by modern gear-cutting machines, the accuracy with which the actual teeth conform to their theoretical shape is quite remarkable, and far exceeds the accuracy which is attained in the manufacture of most other types of machine elements. The first part of this book deals with spur gears, which are gears with teeth that are parallel to the gear axis. The second part describes helical gears, whose teeth form helices about the gear axis. The book is primarily about involute gears, since this type of gear is by far the most commonly used. However, the first chapter introduces the Law of Gearing, which must be satisfied by any pair of gears, and the statements made apply not only to involute gears, but are also true for non-involute types of gear. There is one other chapter of the book which also deals with non-involute gears. Chapter 9 is on the general theory of gear tooth geometry, and 2 Introduction is included in the book simply because the tooth profiles of involute gears contain sections which are not involute. In particular, the part of each tooth near its root, known as the fillet, is not an involute, but its shape can be found from the general theory of gears. And in some gears, small alterations from the involute shape, known as profile modifications, are made in the teeth, and again the final shape of the teeth can be found by means of the general theory. In helical gears, the angle between the helix tangent and the gear axis is known as the helix angle. Spur gears can be regarded as helical gears, in which the helix angle is zero. Since a spur gear is therefore simply a special case of a helical gear, it might be asked why the two types should be dealt with separately. However, the geometry of spur gears is considerably simpler than that of helical gears, and it is therefore convenient to describe it first. The cross-section of a helical gear perpendicular to its axis, known as its transverse section, is the same as the cross-section of a spur gear, so a knowledge of spur gear geometry makes a good starting point for the study of helical gears. The treatment of spur gear theory in this book is fairly conventional, except in one respect. No distinction is made between a gear pair meshed at the standard center distance, and one at extended centers. The terminology and the notation are the same for both cases. In conformity with this principle, the name \"pitch circle\" is always used for the circle of a gear which passes through the pitch point, and its radius is always represented by the symbol Rp' whatever its value. It is important to make a clear distinction between the pitch circle when a gear is in operation, and the pitch circle when it is meshed with its basic rack, which is used as a reference circle. For this reason, the pitch circle when the gear is meshed with its basic rack is called the standard pitch circle, and its radius is labelled Rs' where the subscript s is used to indicate the word \"standard\". Apart from this change, the definitions and notation in this book have been chosen to conform as closely as possible with those used in current North American practice. However, a few additional alterations have been made, in cases where Introduction 3 the existing terminology is confusing. For example, the phrase \"pre'ssure angle\" is used at present for several different angles. Its original meaning is the angle between the line of action and the common tangent to the pitch circles, but it is used also for the angle between the tooth profile and the tooth center-line of a rack, and the angle between the radius and the profile tangent of a gear tooth at either the standard pitch circle or the pitch circle. In addi t ion, the angle between the radi us and the prof i Ie tangent at a typical radius R of the tooth profile is also commonly known as the pressure angle. In current usage, all these angles are called either the pressure angle or the operating pressure angle, and they are all represented by the symbol ~ when they are equal to the pressure angle of the basic rack, and ~' when they are not. Over the years, several attempts have been made to rename some of these angles, but the proposed alternative names have not been widely accepted, so in this book the name \"pressure angle\" has generally been retained, while the notation has been altered to help identify the particular angle that is referred to. The angle between the radius and the profile tangent at a typical point of the gear tooth profile is referred to as the profile angle at radius R, and it is represented by the symbol ~R' The profile angles of a gear at the standard pitch circle and the pitch circle are called the pressure angle and the operating pressure angle of the gear, with the symbols ~s and ~P' and the pressure angle of the basic rack is represented by the symbol ~r' Finally, the angle between the line of action and the common tangent to the pitch circles is called the operating pressure angle of the gear pair, and this is the only angle for which the customary symbol ~ is still used. The symbols for the different pressure angles are distinguished by their subscripts, and the same convention is used for all quantities, such as the circular pitch and the tooth thickness, whose values are functions of the radius. The subscripts R, s, p, or b are used whenever a quantity is measured on a gear tooth at a general radius R, at the standard pitch circle, at the pitch circle, or at the base circle, and the subscript r applies to the corresponding quantity measured on a rack tooth. 4 Introduction The second part of the book deals with the geometry of helical gears, and the treatment differs substantially from the traditional approach. The sUbject is essentially three-dimensional, and in the past the geometr ic theorems have usually been proved with the help of projective geometry. In other fields of mechanics, projective geometry has been largely superseded by vector methods, and in the author's opinion, most of the theorems relating to helical gears can be proved far more easily using vector algebra than using projective geometry. The entire description of helical gears in this book is therefore given with the help of vector theory. I t is believed that most younger engineers, and today's engineering grounding in vector students, receive a more thorough theory than they do in projective geometry, and should therefore find thi s new approach to helical gear geometry easier to understand. The word \"pitch\" is used in this book in a manner which differs slightly from the customary North American usage, and is in fact based on current European practice. In North America, the phrase \"circular pitch\" describes a particular length on a spur gear, while \"diametral pitch\" is a quantity used to indicate the tooth size, defined as the number of teeth divided by the diameter of the standard pitch circle. The original meaning of the word \"pitch\" is the distance between similar objects that are repeated at regular intervals. In this book, the word is only used in a manner which conforms with the original meaning. The of a spur gear is defined in the usual circular pi tch way, and the corresponding lengths in a helical gear are called the transverse pitch, the normal pitch, and the axial pitch. In general, the diametral pitch is not referred to in this book, since it is not a pitch in the sense described above. In order to specify the tooth size of a gear we use the module, which is the method used throughout Europe and Japan. However, since the diametral pitch is still in common use in North America, the relation between the module and the diametral pitch is described in the text, and the diametral pitch is used in some of the examples at the end of each chapter. A list of references is provided, and this consists of a number of books and articles which the author has found Introduction 5 particularly helpful in his own study of gear geometry. In addition, several articles are listed because they describe, in considerable detail, certain topics which are only outlined in this book. The list is not intended to include all possible references, and no attempt has been made in the text to identify a source for each idea or theorem. In some cases, it would probably be very di ff icult to di scover where a particular idea originated. When any reference is quoted in the text, it is identified by a number in square brackets, which refers to the number in the list of references at the end of the book. In the diagrams throughout the book, the gear tooth profiles were drawn by a computer-driven plotter. The remaining parts of the diagrams were drawn by Mr. Hiroshi Yokota, of the University of Alberta. The author would like to thank him for his excellent work. The author also wishes to express his appreciation to the University of Alberta, and to the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, both of whom provided support for the project. This book is about the theoretical geometry of involute gears, and is not intended to replace the many books and manuals that exist on the design of gears. However, the full potential of the involute as a tooth profile can only be used by a designer who has a good understanding of its fundamental geometric properties. It is hoped that the book will contribute to that understanding. PART 1 SPUR GEARS Chapter 1 The Law of Gearing External and Internal Gears A spur gear is a gear cut from a cylindrical blank, with teeth which are parallel to the gear axis, as shown in Figure 1.1. If the teeth face outwards, the gear is called an external gear, and if they face inwards, like those of the gear shown in Figure 1.2, the gear is known as an internal gear. Much of the geometric theory of gears applies equally to both external and internal gears. However, for the sake of clarity, this book is restricted to the subject of external gears, except for a single chapter. The exception is Chapter 12, where we will show which parts of the theory of external gears are valid for internal gears, and we will discuss the special features that apply only to internal gears. The Requirement for a Constant Angular Veloci ty Ratio When two gears rotate together, as shown in Figure 1.3, the teeth of each gear pass in and out of mesh with those of the other gear, and this occurs in an area that lies somewhere between the gear centers C1 and C2 . The teeth from the two gears pass through the meshing area alternately, first one from gear 1, then one from gear 2, and so on. Hence, if the gears have N1 and N2 teeth, and during a certain time interval T the number of teeth from each gear passing through the meshing area is n, then the gears will make respectively (n/N 1) and (n/N2) revolutions. By expressing the number of '0 The Law of Gearing Figure'. ,. An external gear. revolutions in radians and dividing by the time taken, we obtain average- values for the gear angular velocities w, and w2 , (w, ) average (w2 )average (...!l.)211' N, T _ (...!l.) 211' N2 T Figure '.2. An internal gear. ( 1.1) (1. 2) Constant Angular Veloci ty Ratio 11 where the minus sign indicates that the direction of rotation for gear 2 must be opposite to that of gear 1. From Equations (1.1 and 1.2), we can immediately obtain a relation between the average angular veloc i ties, - N (w ) 2 2 average ( 1. 3) Equation (1.3) is true for all gears, whatever the shape of the teeth. However, if the tooth shape is arbitrary, the gears will not run smoothly. Suppose gear 1 is driving, and turns at a constant angular velocity. In general, the angular veloci ty of gear 2 wi 11 not be constant, but wi 11 be a periodic function, repeating itself as each pair of teeth are meshed, with an average value given by Equation (1.3). The variation in angular veloci ty of gear 2 leads to vibrations in the gear train, and will generally cause fatigue cracks to form in the teeth, resulting in early failure of the gears. Theoretical studies of gear tooth profiles date back to the 16th Century, but for many years the craftsmen who cut gears made no use of the knowledge that was available. Most machinery was quite slow-moving, and vibration was not considered important. Toward the end of the 18th Century, 12 The Law of Gearing machine designers began to make greater demands on the gears in the machines they bui It. The gears turned faster than before, and were more heavily loaded. Tooth breakage then developed into a serious problem, and it became necessary to choose tooth profiles which would allow the driven gear to maintain a constant angular velocity, whenever the driving gear angular velocity was constant. To achieve this end, the angular velocity ratio (w 1/w2 ) must remain constant at all times, and not simply on average, as described by Equation (1.3). The new requirement for the angular veloci ties can be expressed by the equation, ( 1 .4) The purpose of this chapter is to determine the condition that must be satisfied by the meshing tooth prof i les, if the gears are to have the constant angular velocity ratio given in Equation (1.4). However, before looking at the case of two gears meshing together, we will consider that of a gear meshing with a rack. Rack and Pinion Rack and Pinion 13 A rack is a segment of a gear whose radius is infinite. I f the number of teeth N2 of gear 2 in Figure 1.3 were extremely large, the radius of the gear would also be large, relative to the tooth size, and the teeth near the meshing area would lie almost on a straight line. In the limit, as N2 becomes infinite, the teeth would lie exactly on a straight line, as shown in Figure 1.4. When two gears mesh, the smaller of the two is called the pinion, and the larger is usually referred to as the gear. Any gear meshed with a rack is considered smaller than the rack, since the rack is part of a gear with an infinite number of teeth. Hence, it is common to speak of a rack and pinion. Whereas a gear pair is used to transmit rotary motion between shafts, a rack and pinion are used to convert rotary motion into linear, or vice-versa. One well-known application is the rack and pinion steering of many automobiles. Part of a rack is shown in Figure 1.5. The pitch p is the distance between corresponding points of adjacent teeth. If we draw any line along the rack parallel to the line of teeth, 14 The Law of Gearing the intersection of this line with the tooth profiles will determine the tooth thickness and the space width, measured along that particular line. We define the rack reference line as the line along which the tooth thickness and the space width are equal, and since their sum is equal to the pitch p, the tooth thickness and the space width measured along the rack reference line must each be equal to (p/2). We now introduce coordinates xr and Yr fixed in the rack, with their origin on the rack reference line. The xr axis lies along a tooth center-line, and the Yr axis coincides with the rack reference line, as shown in Figure 1.5. A typical point of the rack tooth profile is labelled Ar' and the tangent to the tooth profile at this point makes an angle ~Ar with the x axis. The angle ~Ar is called the rack profile angle a~ point Ar \u2022 In relating the rack velocity to the pinion angular velocity, the reasoning is identical to that used earlier for two gears. During any time interval T, the number n of rack teeth passing through the meshing area is equal to the number of pinion teeth which pass through. Thus, average values for the rack velocity vr and the pinion angular velocity ware given by the following expressions, (W)average !!E T ( 1. 5) ( 1. 6) where vr is defined as positive in the upward direction, and W is defined as positive when the angular velocity is counter-clockwise. The relation we require is obtained by eliminating (niT) from Equations (1.5 and 1.6). N 21r(w)average ( 1. 7) Equation (1.7) is exactly analogous to Equation (1.3). As with a pair of gears, the satisfactory operation of a rack and pinion requires that the relation between vr and w should remain constant. Hence, the tooth shapes must be such that vr and w satisfy the following equation, . Ar Ar - 51n IP n - cos IP n t ~ ( 1. 9) Since Ar is the contact point, the unit vector nnr lies in the direction of the common normal. The velocity of Ar' and its component along the common normal, are given by the following two equations, 16 The Law of Gearing A - cos ~ r v r (1.10) (1.11) where the dot indicates the scalar product between two vectors. If the vector from the pinion center C to point A is (xnE+Yn~), then the velocity of point A and its component along the common normal can be expressed as follows, VA wnS x (xnE+Yn~) - wYne + wxn~ (1.12) A nnr vA . Ar Ar (1.13) vn wY Sln ~ - wX cos ~ where the symbol x in Equation (1.12) indicates the vector product. We now equate the normal velocity components of Ar and A, given by Equations (1.11 and 1.13), and use Equation (1.8) to express the relation we require between vr and w. We then obtain the following equation that must be satisfied by X and Y, the coordinates of the contact point. Rack and Pinion y (x - ~) 211\" A cot 1/1 r 17 (1.14) Equation (1.14) can be interpreted in the following manner. There is a fixed point P, at a distance (Np/211\") from C on the line through C perpendicular to the rack reference line, such that the slope of line PA is equal to cot I/IAr \u2022 This means that line PA makes an angle (11\"/2 _I/iAq with the n~ direction, and it is therefore the common normal at the contact point A, since the common tangent makes an angle I/IA r with the n~ direction. The position of point P is shown in Figure 1.7. The result just proved is known as the Law of Gearing, as it relates to a rack and pinion. It may be stated in the following way. The condition that must be satisfied by the tooth profiles of a rack and pinion, in order that the relation between rack velocity and pinion angular velocity should remain constant, is that the common normal at the contact point should at all times pass through a fixed point P. The position of P is at a distance (Np/211\") from the pinion center C, on the perpendicular from C towards the rack reference line. The point P is called the pitch point. The circle passing through P whose center is at C is called the pinion pitch circle, and its radius Rp is equal to the length CP, (1.15) In Equation (1.8), we gave the relation that we require between the rack velocity and the pinion angular velocity. We used that relation to prove the Law of Gearing, which lead us to define the pitch point and the pinion pitch circle. Having now derived an expression in Equation (1.15) for the pitch circle radius, we can combine Equations (1.8 and 1.15), and we obtain a simpler form for the relation between the rack velocity and the pinion angular velocity, (1.16) The line in the rack which touches the pinion pitch circle at P, as shown in Figure 1.7, is known as the rack 18 The Law of Gearing pitch line. When the pinion and rack are in motion, the velocity of any point on the pinion pitch circle is equal to RpW, and the velocity of any point on the rack pitch line is equal to vr ' Since these velocities are equal, as we can see from Equation (1.16), the motion of a rack and pinion is identical to the motion that would be obtained if the rack pitch line and the pinio~ pitch circle were to make rolling contact with no slipping. Ci rcular pi tch The circular pitch of the pinion teeth at any radius R is defined as the distance between corresponding points of adjacent teeth, measured around the circumference of the circle of radius R. Thus, the circular pitch PR at radius R, which is shown in Figure 1.8, is given by the following expression, 211'R N (1.17) In the case when the circular pitch is measured on the pitch Circular pitch. Law of Gearing for Two Gears circle, we use the symbol Pp' and its value can substituting Rp in place of R in Equation (1.17). 211'Rp Pp N 19 be found by (1.18) When we replace the pitch circle radius Rp in this equation by the expression given in Equation (1.15), it is clear that the circular pitch of the gear at its pitch circle is equal to the pitch p of the rack, p (1.19) This result can be used to provide an alternative definition of the pitch circle of a pinion, when it is meshed with a rack. The pitch circle can be defined as the circle on which the pinion circular pitch is equal to the rack pitch p. Law of Gearing for Two Gears It was shown in the previous section that a rack and pinion behave in the same manner as if the rack pitch line and the pinion pitch circle were to make rolling contact with no 20 The Law of Gearing slipping. We now investigate whether the same idea can be used for two gears. First, we find two pitch circles which, if they made rolling contact with each other, would provide the same angular velocity ratio as the gears. And then we will establish that the Law of Gearing also applies for a pair of gears, or in other words, that the common normal at the tooth contact point always passes through a fixed point. Figure 1.9 shows two gears, with point Al of gear 1 in contact with point A2 of gear 2. The distance C between the gear centers is called the center distance. Parts of the pitch circles have been drawn in, and their radii are shown as RPl and Rp2 . The point where they touch is the pitch point P. If the pitch circles are to make rolling contact with no slipping, their radii must satisfy the following equations, C (1.20) (1.21) The angular velocity ratio that we require was given in Equation (1.4), (1.22) Equations (1.21 and 1.22) imply that the ratio of the pitch circle radii is equal to the ratio of the tooth numbers, ( 1. 23) We now solve Equations (1.20 and 1.23), to obtain the radii of the pi tch ci rc les, ( 1 .24 ) (1.25) The pitch point P, which is the point where the pitch circles touch, therefore lies on the line of centers and divides C1C2 in the ratio N1:N2 . We use this point as the origin of a fixed system of coordinates E, ~ and S, with axes Law of Gearing for Two Gears 21 in the directions shown in Figure 1.9. The position of the contact point relative to the pitch point is then given by the coordinates ~ and 1/. As we did in the case of the rack and pinion, we write down the velocities of points Al and A2 , and then equate their components along the common normal. The direction nn of the common normal, which is unknown at present, can be written in the following form, where s~ and s1/ are the components of nn in directions. Then the velocities of Al and components in the normal direction, are following four equations. Al v = w 1nS x [(Rpl+~)n~+1/n1/] A2 v (1.26) the coordinate A2 , and their given by the ( 1. 29) ( 1 .30) A A Equating the expressions for vn 1 and vn 2 , we obtain a relation which must be satisfied by the vector components s~ and s1/' o (1.31) The expression between the square brackets is zero, as we can see from Equation (1.21). The angular velocities w1 and w2 can never be equal, because for a pair of external gears the angular velocities must be of opposite sign, and for a pinion meshed with an internal gear, the pinion angular velocity must be greater than that of the internal gear. Hence, the term (w 1-w2 ) cannot be zero, and it follows that the remaining term is zero. The condition given by Equation (1.31) therefore reduces to the following form, 22 The Law of Gearing ( 1. 32) Equation (1.32) can be interpreted as showing that the unit vector nn along the common normal is parallel to line PA 1. In other words, the common normal at the contact point must always pass through the pitch point, which is the point that divides the line of centers C1C2 in the ratio N1 :N2 \u2022 This is the statement of the Law of Gearing, as it applies to a pair of gears. We proved in Equation (1.19) that when a pinion is meshed with a rack, the circular pitch of the pinion at its pitch circle is equal to the pitch of the rack. A similar result is also true for a pair of gears. The circular pitch of each gear at its pitch circle is given by Equation (1.18), Pp1 211'Rp1 N1 ( 1. 33) Pp2 211'Rp2 N2 (1.34) When we use Equations (1.24 and 1.25) to express the pitch circle radii RP1 and Rp2 ' it is immediately clear that the circular pitches of the two gears must be equal, (1.35) Path of Contact The locus of successive contact points between a pair of teeth is called the path of contact. One consequence of the Law of Gearing is that the path of contact must pass through the pitch point. To prove this statement, we need only consider the situation if it were not true. If the path of contact were to cross the line of centers at any point P' which is not the pitch point, then when the contact point was at P', the common normal at the contact point would not pass through the pitch point, and the gear pair would not satisfy the Law of Gearing. The Basic Rack 23 Conjugate Profiles and the Basic Rack Any pair of tooth profiles that satisfy the Law of Gearing are said to be conjugate. If the tooth profile of one gear is chosen arbitrarily, it is possible to find a tooth profile for the other gear, such that the two profiles are conjugate. In particular, we can specify a rack tooth profile, and then define a system of gears as having tooth profiles which are conjugate to the chosen rack. This is the method generally used by various organisations, such as the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) and the International Organisation for Standardization (ISO), to define the tooth profiles for a system of gears. The rack tooth profile is then known as the basic rack for the system of gears. In the next chapter, we will consider a particular basic rack, which is the one used to define the tooth profile of an involute gear, and we will then describe the geometry of the gear teeth. Chapter 2 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear Basic Involute Rack In general, the tooth profile of a rack may be curved, and the profile angle ~Ar would then vary from one point of the tooth to another. We now consider a particular rack, in which the teeth are straight-sided. This is the basic rack which we use to define the tooth shape of an involute gear. The profile angle for this rack is constant, and the value of the constant will be represented by the symbol ~r' which is called the pressure angle of the basic rack. Thus, for the basic rack used to define involute tooth profiles, constant (2.1) In some cases the profile angle ~Ar may vary near the tips and the roots of the basic rack teeth. For example, the teeth may be rounded at the tips. The rack is still called an involute rack, provided a substantial part of its tooth profile is straight-sided. For the purpose of finding the shape of the gear tooth, we will start by assuming that the basic rack has teeth which are entirely straight-sided, as shown in Figure 2.1. The pressure angle is ~r' and we use the symbol Pr to represent the pitch of the basic rack. Base Pi tch of the Basic Rack The dimensions of the basic rack are determined by the values of Pr and ~r' In addition, there is a third quantity shown in Figure 2.1 called the rack base pitch, which is Standard pitch Circle 25 defined as the distance between adjacent teeth, measured along a common normal. The reason why this particular length on a rack is called the base pitch will be made clear later in this chapter. For the moment, we will simply use Figure 2.1 to express the base pitch Pbr of the basic rack in terms of its pi tch and pressure angle, (2.2) The three quantities Pr' Pbr and 4J r are the parameters used to describe the basic rack. Since they are related by Equation (2.2), it is clear that only two of the quantities are independent. We can choose any two, and then use Equation (2.2) to find the third. Standard Pi~ch Circle For any tooth profile, there are a number of quantities whose values are functions of the radius R. These include the circular pitch PR' which was introduced in Chapter 1, and the profile angle and the tooth thickness, which will be 26 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear discussed later in this chapter. As part of the description of a gear, it is necessary to provide the values of each of these quantities at some specified radius. An obvious choice for this radius is the pitch circle radius of the gear when it is meshed with its basic rack. In Chapter 1 we defined the pitch circle of a gear as the circle through the pi tch point, and we used the symbol Rp to represent its radius. We showed there that the value of Rp depends on the pitch of the rack, when the gear is meshed with a rack, and on the center distance when the gear is meshed with another gear. In order, therefore, to identify the particular pitch circle of a gear when it is meshed with its basic rack, we will call it the standard pitch circle, and we will represent its radius by the symbol Rs' In Equations (1.15 and 1.18), we gave expressions for the pitch circle radius of a gear when it is meshed with an arbitrary rack, and for the circular pitch measured at the pitch circle, We also showed, in Equation (1.19), that the circular pitch at the pitch circle is equal to the pitch p of the rack, When we replace the rack pitch p in these equations by Pr' the pitch of the basic rack, the first two equations give the standard pitch circle radius Rs of a gear, and its circular pi tch p at the standard pi tch ci rcle, while. the thi rd s equation shows that the circular pitch of the gear at its standard pitch circle is equal to the pitch of the basic rack, RS NPr (2.3) 21r Ps 211'Rs N (2.4) Ps Pr (2.5) Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear 27 The Involute Tooth Profile We will now determine the shape of gear tooth profiles which are conjugate to the basic rack in Figure 2.1. The word conjugate means, as we defined it in Chapter 1, that the gear teeth are shaped in such a manner that the Law of Gearing is satisfied, when the gear is meshed with the basic rack. In Figure 2.2, a pinion is shown meshing with the basic rack. The plnlon pitch circle radius is Rs' given by Equation (2.3), and the pitch line is the line in the basic rack which touches the pinion pitch circle at the pitch point P. The Law of Gearing states that the common normal at the contact point must pass through P. For any particular position of the rack, there is only one point Ar of the rack tooth profile whose normal passes through P, and this point must be the contact point. The pinion tooth must therefore be shaped so that its profile touches the rack tooth at Ar \u2022 28 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear The point of the pinion tooth profile in Figure 2.2 which coincides with Ar is labelled A. The line joining the contadt point to the pitch point is called the line of action, since it coincides with the common normal at the contact point, and therefore in the absence of friction the contact force must act along this line. The angle between the line of action and the tangent to the pinion pitch circle at P is called the operating pressure angle ~ of the gear pair. Since the line of action is perpendicular to the tooth profile of the basic rack, it can be seen from the diagram that, when a gear is meshed with its basic rack, the operating pressure angle of the gear pair is equal to the pressure angle of the basic rack, (2.6) If we were to consider the basic rack in a new position, the description of the meshing geometry would be essentially a repetition of the last paragraph. The new contact point would again lie on the line which passes through the pitch point in a direction perpendicular to the tooth profile of the basic rack. This result is true for any position of the basic rack. Hence, the path of contact, which is the locus of all contact points, is a segment of the same straight line. And since the line of action is always the line joining the pitch point to the contact point, the direction of the line of action is fixed, and the line of action coincides with the line containing the path of contact. We now construct the perpendicular from the pinion center C to the line of action, and the foot of this perpendicular is labelled E, as shown in Figure 2.2. The pinion circle with center C and radius equal to CE is known as the base circle, and its radius is represented by the symbol Rb \u2022 Since the rack tooth profile and line CE are both perpendicular to the line of action, they must be parallel, and the angle ECP is equal to ~r' We can then use triangle ECP to express the base circle radius in terms of the standard pitch circle radius, (2.7) Alternative Definition of the Involute 29 The shape of the pinion tooth must be such that the normal to the tooth profile at point A passes through P. This is a direct statement of the Law of Gearing. using the base circle just defined, we can restate the property of the tooth shape a little differently. The shape of the tooth profile must be such that the normal at the contact point touches the base circle. As the pinion rotates, the contact point moves along the pinion tooth, and therefore at each point of the profile the normal to the profile must touch the base circle. A curve with this property is known as an involute of the base circle, and this is the origin of the name \"involute gear\". Alternative Definition of the Involute There is another manner in which the involute can be defined. If the base circle is fixed, and a rigid bar AD rolls without slipping on the base circle, as shown in Figure 2.3, then the path followed by point A is an involute. It is easy to prove that the two definitions are equivalent. If point E is the contact point between the base circle and bar, then E is also the instantaneous center of the bar as it rolls. The 30 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear velocity of point A is therefore perpendicular to EA. This means that the tangent to the involute at A is perpendicular to EA, and therefore the normal is along EA, which is the property by which the involute was originally defined. The Involute Function The alternative definition is useful in helping to derive some of the fundamental geometric equations of the involute. The point in Figure 2.3 where the involute curve meets the base circle is labelled B. This is the point where the end A of the bar would meet the base circle, if the bar rolled to the position where A was the contact point. Due to the fact that the bar rolls without slipping, we can say that the length of arc EB on the base circle must be equal to the length EA on the bar. In symbolic form, this can be written, arc EB EA (2.8) We now need to define a number of new symbols, and to derive the relations between them. Figure 2.4 shows the base Profile angle and roll angle. The Involute Function 31 circle, and an involute curve starting at point B, with a typical point A at radius R. The normal to the involute at A touches the base circle at E. We define an angle ~R' called the profile angle at radius R, as the angle between the radius through A and the involute tangent at A. The radius CE is perpendicular to EA, since EA touches the base circle, and CE is therefore parallel to the involute tangent at A. Hence, the angle ECA is equal to the profile angle, angle ECA (2.9) Referring to triangle ECA, we obtain two immediate results, (2.10) EA (2.11) Next, we define an angle ER, called the roll angle at radius R, as the angle between the radius through B and the involute tangent at A. Since CE is parallel to the involute tangent at A, the angle ECB is equal to the roll angle, angle ECB (2.12) and the length of arc EB is therefore given by the following equation, arc EB (2.13) where ER must of course be expressed in radians. We now combine Equations (2.8, 2.11 and 2.13), in order to obtain a relation between ER and ~R' (2.14 ) The angle between the radii CA and CB is clearly a function of ~R' and the name inv ~R (short for involute function of ~R) has been chosen for this function. We express the angle ACB as the difference between angles ECB and ECA, and since angle ECB is given by Equation (2.14) in radians, 32 Tooth Prof i Ie of an I nvol ute Gear the angles in the following equation are all expressed in radians. inv I/>R angle ACB (2.15) The function inv I/>R is used throughout the geometry of involute gears. Since, as we have shown, it represents an angle measured in radians, it is generally convenient to express other angles also in radians. For this reason, the following convention will be used in this book. Unless it is explicitly stated that an angle is given in degrees, it will be understood that the value is expressed in radians. For example, the polar coordinate 9R of a point on the tooth profile is given by Equation (2.35). The units are not given, so it is understood that the equation gives the value of 9R in radians. When I/>R is known, the value of inv I/>R is given by Equation (2.15). It is also sometimes necessary to find I/>R' when the value of inv I/>R is known, and this can be carried out by means of the following two steps, q (inv If> ) 2/3 R 1.0 + 1.04004q + 0.32451q2 - 0.00321q3 - 0.00894q4 + 0.00319q5 - 0.00048q6 (2.16) (2.17) The maximum error given by the procedure is 0.0001\u00b0, for values of I/>R between 0\u00b0 and 65\u00b0, and this range of I/>R values is sufficient for most practical purposes. The coefficients in Equation (2.17) are a simplified version of a set of ceofficients developed by Polder [9]. For the purpose of describing the geometry of a tooth, we generally use the radius R to specify any point A on the tooth profile. The profile angle at A is then given by Equa t i on (2. 1 0 ) , Rb R (2.18) and the angle between line CA and the fixed line CB is expressed by the involute function, Pressure Angle of a Gear angle ACB inv /fiR 33 (2.19) Another common description of the involute is based on the same idea as the alternative definition given earlier. We consider a cable wrapped round a fixed cylinder of radius Rb , with one end of the cable attached to the cylinder. If the other end of the cable is partly unwound, the path followed by that end will be an involute. If Figure 2.5 were to represent the cable and cylinder, then EA would be the section of cable unwound from the cylinder, and it is obvious that the length of this part of the cable is equal to the arc EB, where the cable was originally wrapped round the cylinder. Pressure Angle of a Gear The pressure angle /fI s of a gear is defined as the gear profile angle /fiR at the standard pitch circle. The profile angle at radius R was given by Equation (2.10), and the pressure angle can be found by setting R equal to Rs in this relation, (2.20) 34 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear When Equation (2.20) is compared with Equation (2.7), it is clear that the pressure angle of the gear is equal to that of the basic rack, \"'r (2.21) There is a more direct proof that the two pressure angles are equal. Figure 2.6 shows the gear meshed with its basic rack, in positions such that the contact point coincides with the pitch point. If As is the point on the gear tooth profile at radius Rs' the pressure angle of the gear is defined as the angle between the radius CAs and the tooth profile tangent at As. Since As is also the contact point, when the gear and the basic rack are in the positions shown, the tangent to the gear tooth profile lies along the rack tooth profile, and the pressure angle \"'s of the gear is therefore equal to the basic rack pressure angle \"'r. It is evident that the name \"pressure angle\" is used for several angles, each defined in a different manner. The pressure angle \"'r of the basic rack is the angle between the Base pi tch 35 tooth profile and the tooth center-line, while the pressure angle ~ of a gear is the profile angle at its standard pitch s circle. Each of these two angles is a constant quantity associated with a particular gear, and in principle it can be measured on the gear. On the other hand, the operating pressure angle ~ of a gear pair only exists when the two gears are meshed. For a rack and pinion, it is defined as the angle between the line of action and the tangent to the pinion pitch circle at P, while for a pair of gears it is the angle between the line of action and the common tangent to the two pitch circles. We have shown, in Equations (2.6 and 2.21), that for a pinion meshed with its basic rack, the three pressure angles are all equal in value. In Chapter 3 we will show that, in general, the operating pressure angle ~ of a gear pair may differ from the other two pressure angles. However, even when the values are equal, it is important to know which angle is referred to when the name \"pressure angle\" is used, and for this reason the symbols ~r' ~s and ~ will be used throughout this book to distinguish the three angles. Base pitch The circular pitch at radius R was defined in Chapter 1 as the distance between corresponding points of adjacent teeth, measured around the circle of radius R. An expression for the circular pitch at radius R was given by Equation (1.17), 211\"R N The base pitch Pb of a gear is defined in a similar manner, as the distance between corresponding points of adjacent teeth, measured around the base circle. In other words, the base pitch is the circular pitch at the base circle, 211\"Rb N (2.22) In Equation (2.10), we gave an expression for the base circle radius in terms of a typical radius R and the corresponding 36 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear profile angle /fiR' We combine the last three equations to derive a relation between the base pitch and the circular pitch at radius R, (2.23) and as a special case of this equation, we set R equal to Rs' and we obtain the corresponding relation between the base pitch and the circular pitch at the standard pitch circle, (2.24) There is a property of involute curves which we will make use of in the chapters that follow. The normal to a tooth profile at any point A is also normal to any other involute of the base circle, and if it cuts the next tooth profile at point A', the length AA' is equal to the base pitch Pb' Thus, the distance between adjacent tooth profiles, measured along a common normal, is equal to Pb' These results can be proved Gear Parameters 37 with the help of Figure 2.7. The normal to the involute at A must touch the base circle at some point E, since this is the defining property of the involute. If line EA cuts the next tooth profile at A', the normal to the second tooth profile at A' must also touch the base circle, and therefore coincides with line EAA'. Hence, a line which is normal to one involute is also normal to other involutes of the same base circle. To prove that the length AA' is equal to the base pitch, we make use of Equation (2.8), which states that EA is equal to arc EB. Referring again to Figure 2.7, we have the following relations, AA' EA' - EA arc EB' - arc EB arc BB' Since the involutes shown in Figure 2.7 are the profiles of adjacent teeth, arc BB' is by definition equal to the base pitch, and the equation can be written, AA' (2.25) We have therefore proved the statement made earlier, that the distance between adjacent tooth profiles, measured along a common normal, is equal to the base pitch. The definition of the base pitch given in Equation (2.22) would not apply in the case of a rack, because both the base circle radius and the number of teeth are infinite. However, earlier in the chapter we gave a definition for the base pitch of a rack, as the distance between adjacent tooth prof i les, measured along a common normal. In view of the result given by Equation (2.25), it is now possible to see that there is no essential difference between the two definitions. Relations Between the Gear Parameters and Those of the Basic Rack We pointed out earlier that the parameters Pr' Pbr and 'r can be used to describe the basic rack, and for gears we introduced three corresponding quantities, the circular 38 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear pitch Ps at the standard pitch circle, the base pitch Pb' and the pressure angle 41 s \u2022 We have already shown in Equations (2.5 and 2.21) that the two pi tches and the two pressure angles are equal, The two base pitches were expressed in terms of the remaining quantities by means of Equations (2.2 and 2.24), When we compare these equations, bearing in mind that the pitches and pressure angles are equal, it is clear that the two base pi tches are also equal, = (2.26) We stated in Chapter 1 that we can define a system of gears, simply by specifying the shape of the teeth in the basic rack. The teeth of each gear in the system must be shaped so that they are conjugate to the basic rack. We have now shown that, for any gear in an involute system, the circular pitch at the standard pitch circle, the base pitch and the pressure angle must each be equal to the corresponding quantity in the basic rack. When the geometry of a gear is described, it is necessary to refer repeatedly to the circular pitch at the standard pitch circle. Since this phrase is so cumbersome, it is common practice to describe Ps simply as the \"circular pitch\". There is no danger of confusion, provided the circular pitch at any other radius is clearly identified, and therefore from now on in the book we will adopt this convention. The same convention will be used for the names of several other gear tooth quantities, whose values depend on the radius, and these will be pointed out as they occur. Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear 39 Module and Diametral pitch When we introduced the standard pitch circle of a gear, we stated that a number of the gear parameters are defined on the standard pitch circle. As part of the specification of a gear, we must therefore give the radius of the standard pitch circle, or alternatively some quantity from which the radius can be calculated. The standard pitch circle radius Rs was given originally by Equation (2.3) in terms of the basic rack pitch Pr' NPr \"\"\"21r (2.27) and since the pitch of the basic rack is equal to the circular pitch of the gear, the radius of the standard pitch circle can be expressed directly in terms of the circular pi tch, (2.28) For a system of gears conjugate to a particular basic rack, it would therefore be necessary to specify only the value of the circular pitch Ps' which is the same for every gear in the system, and we would then use Equation (2.28) to calculate the standard pitch circle radius of each gear. This method of specification was in fact used in the past, and gears in which the circular pi tch is specified as a convenient length are known as \"circular pitch gears\". However, they are seldom made today, as they have one slight disadvantage. If the value of the circular pitch is chosen as a round number, the standard pitch circle radius is always an inconvenient size, due to the presence of the factor w in Equation (2.28). It has been found more practical to design gears in which the standard pitch circle radius is a round number. With this consideration in mind, we introduce a quantity called the module m, defined in terms of the basic rack pitch, m (2.29) We now combine Equations (2.27 and 2.29), in order to express the standard pitch circle radius in terms of the module, 40 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear (2.30) and, since once again the circular pitch of the gear is equal to the basic rack pitch, a relation between the circular pitch and the module can be found immediately from Equation (2.29), (2.31) The module, which we have shown is proportional to the circular pitch, is used not only in the calculation of the standard pitch circle radius, but also as a measure of the tooth size. When two gears are meshed together, they must clearly have teeth of approximately the same size, and in prac t ice they are des i gned with the same module m and the same pressure angle ~s. In other words, the two gears are both conjugate to the same basic rack. We will show in Chapter 3 that these conditions ensure correct meshing of the gears. The module can be measured in either mms or inches. In practice, it is most commonly measured in mms, since the module is generally used in countries which have adopted the metric system. In North America, the quantity used at present to specify the tooth size of a gear is known as the diametral pitch Pd. This is defined as the number of teeth in the gear, divided by the diameter of the standard pitch circle, N 2Rs (2.32) A relation between the diametral pitch and the circular pitch can be found from Equations (2.28 and 2.32), ..JL Ps (2.33) and when we use Equation (2.31) to express the circular pitch in terms of the module, it is clear that the diametral pitch is equal to the rec iprocal of the module, 1 m (2.34) Since the diametral pitch is expressed in teeth per inch, Equation (2.34) requires that the module be given in inches. Tooth Thickness 41 It seems probable that the use of the diametral pitch will eventually be abandoned in favour of the module. The gear geometry in this book is therefore described in terms of the module, and the module is also used in most of the examples at the end of each chapter. However, since the diametral pi tch is still widely used in North America, a number of examples are also included in which the tooth size is specified by means of the diametral pitch. For these problems, the module will first be found, using Equation (2.34), and the remaining calculations will then be carried out in terms of the module. Tooth Thickness The tooth thickness at radius R is defined as the arc length between opposite faces of a tooth, measured around the circumference of the circle of radius R. We will show in this section that when we know the tooth thickness at one radius, we can calculate it at any other. Thus, it is only necessary to specify the tooth thickness at one particular radius, and for this purpose we generally choose the standard pitch circle. The symbol ts is used to designate the tooth thickness at the standard pitch circle, and tR is used for the tooth thickness at radius R. The tooth thickness ts at the standard 42 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear pitch circle is described simply as \"the tooth thickness\", in the same way that the circular pitch at the standard pitch circle is called the circular pitch. The gap between the teeth, measured around the circle of radius R, is called the space width at radius R, and like the tooth thickness, the space width is generally measured on the standard pi tch circle. Since the tooth thickness, the space width and the circular pitch are all defined as arc lengths, as shown in Figure 2.8, it is clear that the sum of the tooth thickness and the space width at any radius R is equal to the circular pi tch at radius R. A gear tooth is shown in Figure 2.9, with points B, As and A on the tooth profile at radii Rb , Rs and R. We will derive an expression for the tooth thickness tR at radius R, assuming the tooth thickness ts is known, and we start by finding the polar coordinate 9R of point A, angle xCA angle xCAs + angle AsCB - angle ACB Tooth Thickness 43 The angle ACB is given by the involute function inv 'R' as we showed in Equation (2.19), and since the profile angle at the standard pitch circle is equal to the pressure angle 's' the angle AsCB is equal to inv,s. Hence, the expression for 8R can be written, = (2.35) Having found the polar coordinate 8R of point A, we can immediately write down an expression for the tooth thickness at radius R, In order to find a relation between the thicknesses at any two radii R1 and R2, we use Equation twice to write down the tooth thicknesses tR and tR ' h 1 \" b h ,1 2 t en e lmlnate ts etween t e two expressIons, tR tR = R2[r + 2(inv 'R - inv'R )] 2 1 1 2 (2.36) tooth (2.36) and we (2.37) where 'R and /fiR are the prof ile angles at the two radi i. 1 2 44 Tooth Profi Ie of an I nvol ute Gear There is another quantity which will be useful in the description of a gear tooth profile, in particular in Chapter 11, where we discuss the tooth strength of a gear. We define an angle YR, as shown in Figure 2.10, as the angle between the profile tangent at point A and the tooth center-line, which coincides with the x axis. Since line CE in Figure 2.10 is parallel to the profile tangen~ at A, the angle between CE and the x axis is equal to YR' and we can therefore express YR as follows, (2.38) We replace 8R by the expression given in Equation (2.35), and the equation for YR then takes the following form, Standard Basic Rack Forms 45 and bs between these circles and the standard pi tch circle are called the addendum and the dedendum, and for this reason the tip and root circles are also called the addendum and dedendum circles. The sum of the addendum and the dedendum is known as the whole depth of the gear teeth. Finally, we use Figure 2.11 to express the addendum and the dedendum in terms of RT, Rs and Rroot ' Standard Basic Rack Forms R - R T s (2.40) (2.41) Although it is possible to choose arbitrary values for the module m and the pressure angle ~r of a basic rack, there are a number of standard values which are most frequently used. As we have shown, the module and pressure angle ~s of a gear are equal to the module and pressure angle ~r of its 46 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear basic rack, so by choosing standard values for the basic rack parameters, we are also choosing the same values for the parameters of the gear. These standard values are recommended by organisations such as the ISO and the AGMA, first because they have been found in practice to give satisfactory results, and secondly for economic reasons. The tools used for cutting gears have dimensions which depend on the module and the pressure angle of the gear to be cut. A gear manufacturer will normally keep in stock the tools necessary for cutting gears with standard values of module and pressure angle, but when di fferent values are required, the cutting tool must be made specially, and the cost of the gear is therefore increased. Preferred values for the module, measured in mms, are as follows, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 8, 10, 12, 2, 2.5, 3, 16, 20, 25, 4, 5, 6, 32, 40, 50, and the preferred values for the diametral pitch, measured in Standard Basic Rack Forms 47 teeth per inch, are given below." ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003427_978-94-017-0657-5_48-Figure4-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003427_978-94-017-0657-5_48-Figure4-1.png", "caption": "Figure 4.

Accordingly we might expect that any one of the three actuators associated with $3, $4, and $5 could effect an escape. But this is not so; $3 is the only possible one, a conclusion that is evident from inspection of Figure 2. But we need a better-founded explanation of this phenomenon so that a general Theorem may be stated. The four-system of screws $2 to $6 can here be broken down into two sub-systems that are not independent. The first is a second special two-system (ref. 1, Section 12.5.2) defined by $2 and $3; the second is a second special three-system (ref. 1, Section 12.7.2) comprising all the zero-pitch screws on the \u00b0\u00b02 lines of the bundle centred on C, defined by $4, $5, and $6.

Theorem 2(ii) applies when the point C lies in the plane of $2 and $3. $2 and $6 cannot, in any case, effect an escape, since actuation at either does not alter the relative positions of all five affected screws. Theorem 2 rules out $4 and $5, leaving $3.

Embodiment of this approach in any control algorithm may not be an attractive or even a feasible proposition. However, systematic avoidance of or an escape from configurations at which one freedom is lost could prevent any larger number of freedoms ever being lost.

Actuation at $3 on its own destroys linear dependence within all the screw systems and restores the full six freedoms to the end-effector. (ii) In Figure 2 let $6 and $4 be coaxial (as in Figure 1), and let $5 be parallel to $2 and $3 and coplanar with them. Another first special two-system of zero-pitch reciprocal screws comprising a planar pencil in the xy-plane, centre A, applies, and is defined by L' + R*' = 0, Since the one-system to which $4 and $6 belong is in Table I, $5 must be actuated; but $3 needs to be actuated too to restore the sixth freedom.

The involute was defined in Chapter 2 as a curve for which the normal at any point touches the base circle. With this definition, it is impossible for the involute to extend inside the base circle. Since the fillet circle passes through Af , the point where the fillet joins the involute, the radius Rf is in general greater than the base circle radius Rb \u2022 In exceptional cases, Rf may be equal to Rb , but it is never smaller. First Condi tion For No Interference Figure 4.7 shows the meshing diagram for a typical gear pair. As usual, the path of contact lies along the common tangent to the base circles, which touches the two base circles at El and E2\u2022 The ends of the path of contact are at Tl and T2 , the points where the tip circles intersect line E1E2 \u2022 When the gears are in the positions shown, point Al of gear 1 is in contact with point A2 of gear 2. Hence, the contact on the tooth of gear 1 takes place at a radius equal to C1Al . When the contact point is closer to El , the radius C1Al is reduced, and if the contact point were to coincide with El the radius C1Al would be equal to Rbl \u2022 We have stated that interference will occur if there is contact at the tooth fillet", " This means that the contact on gear 1 must only take place on the involute section of the tooth profile, or in other words, at radii greater than the fillet circle radius Rfl \u2022 We have also pointed out that the Condi tions For No Interference 93 fillet circle radius is generally larger than the base circle radius. If, therefore, the contact point is allowed to move down the tooth profile of gear 1 as far as the base circle, there will def inately be interference. Hence, in order to prevent the interference, it is first necessary that the path of contact should end at a point on line E1E2 lying above E1\u2022 The length T2E2 in Figure 4.7 must therefore be less than E1E2 , and the necessary condition for no interference can be expressed in the following form, < (4.18 ) The meshing diagram of a rack and pinion is shown in Figure 4.8. The line containing the path of contact touches the pinion base circle at E, and the end of the path of contact is shown as Tr \u2022 As before, interference would take place at the tooth fillets of the pinion if the contact point were to move down the tooth profile as far as the base circle, so point Tr must lie above point E", " However, even when these conditions are satisfied, they are not always sufficient to prevent interference. We stated earlier that the tooth fillet of a gear extends to point Af , which generally lies a certain distance outside the base circle. We must now ensure that the top of the fillet, between the base circle and the fillet circle, does not come into contact with the teeth of the meshing gear. We therefore calculate the minimum radius at which contact takes place, and compare thi s wi th the radius of the fillet ci rcle. Limi t Ci rcle In Figure 4.7, the lower end of the path of contact is point T2 , and the radius C1T2 is therefore the minimum radius in gear 1 where contact occurs. The circle in gear 1 which passes through T2 is called the limit circle or the contact circle of gear 1, and its radius is labelled RL1 \u2022 The length Conditions For No Interference 95 E,T2 in Figure 4.7 is expressed as the difference between E,E 2 and T2E2, and we then use triangle C,E,T2 to derive an expression for the radius RL\" (4.20) In the case of the rack and pinion, the limit circle of the pinion is the circle passing through point Tr , the lower end of the path of contact.

Whilst it is some ways a valuable reference, in other respects it is \"over the top\" for many peoples testing needs. The static tests considered in Chapter 8 treat the rubber as being essentially an elastic, or rather 'high elastic', material whereas it is in fact viscoelastic and, hence, its response to dynamic stressing is a combination of an elastic response and a viscous response and energy is lost in each cycle. This behaviour can be conveniently envisaged by a simple empirical model of a spring and dashpot in parallel (Voigt-Kelvin model). For sinusoidal strain the motion is described by: Dynamic stress and strain properties 175 Y = YQ sin Q)t where: y= strain, yo = maximum strain amplitude, co = angular frequency, and t = time. If the rubber were a perfect spring the stress (x) would be similarly sinusoidal and in phase with the strain. However, because the rubber is viscoelastic the stress will not be in phase with the strain but can be considered to precede it by the phase angle (5) so that: T = Tr, s m {(Dt + 5) This is the same as saying that the deformation lags behind the force by the angle 5.

We pointed out in Chapter 2 that the involute can be represented as the path followed by point A of a rigid bar, while the bar rolls without slipping on a circle of radius Rb \u2022 The bar and the circle are shown in Figure 10.1, and the contact point is labelled E. Since E is also the instantaneous center of the bar, the path of A coincides momentarily with the circle whose center is E, and the radius of curvature p of the involute at point A is therefore equal to the length EA, p EA ( 10. 1) If A is the point of the involute at radius R, as shown in Figure 10.2, the angle ECA is equal to the profile angle ~R' as we proved in Equation (2.9), and the radius of curvature can therefore be expressed as follows, p (10.2) Euler-Savary Equation The equation just derived gives a very simple method for calculating the radius of curvature, at any point on the involute section of a gear tooth profile. However, the equation is of course not suitable for finding the radius of 230 Curvature of Tooth Profiles curvature in the fillet. For this purpose, we make use of the Euler-Savary equation, which gives a relation between the radii of curvature of two conjugate profiles. The fillet of a gear tooth is conjugate to the circular section at the tip of the cutter tooth, whose radius is known. We can therefore use the Euler-Savary equation to find the radius of curvature at any point on the fillet. Before we make use of the Euler-Savary equation, we will show how the equation is derived. We consider a pair of meshing gears, as shown in Figure 10.3, and we first discuss the motion of gear 2 relative to gear 1. We regard gear 1 as fixed, so that the motion of gear 2 can be represented by the motion of its pitch circle, rolling without slipping on the pitch circle of gear 1. If the angular velocity of gear 2 relative to gear 1 is w radians/second counter-clockwise, then the velocity of the gear center C2 is (Rp2w), and the angular velocity of the line of centers is equal to the velocity of C2, divided by the center distance. The velocity of P, the point at which the pitch circles touch each other, is then given by the following expression, Euler-Savary Equation 23' R c Figure '0.2. Radius of curvature of the involute. ('0.3) We now consider the motion of a 'particular curve in gear 2, which we will call curve 02. As gear 2 rolls on the pitch circle of gear \" the various positions occupied by curve 02 form an envelope, and this envelope is called curve 0,. Figure '0.4 shows the positions of gear 2 at two distinct times l' and 1\" \u2022 At time 1', the center of gear 2 is C2 ' and the point where the pitch circles touch is P. The corresponding points at time 1\" are shown as C2 and P'. The two positions of the curve in gear 2 are shown as 02 and 02' and these curves touch the envelope 0, at points A and A' \u2022 The instantaneous center of gear 2 at time l' is P. Hence, the point of gear 2 which coincides with A has a velocity that is perpendicular to PA. The tangent to the envelope 0, must lie in the same direction, and the normal therefore coincides with PA. The two lines PA and P'A' are each normal to curve 0, at adjacent points, so the point 0, where these lines meet is the center of curvature of curve 0, at A, and the length O,A is the radius of curvature Pl. The velocity of A can be related to the velocity of P. If PA makes an angle ~ with the tangent to the pitch circles at P, the velocity of P has a component perpendicular to PA of 232 Curvature of Tooth Profiles (vp sin 1/1), and the velocity vAil can be expressed as follows, (10.4) In this expression, s is the distance from P to A. The symbol vAil is used to represent the velocity of A, to indicate that the velocity is measured relative to gear 1. We next determine the velocity of A, measured relative to gear 2. Figure 10.5 shows the system with gear 2 at rest, and gear 1 rolling on the pitch circle of gear 2 with a clockwise angular velocity w. As before, the positions of the moving gear at the two times T and T' are indicated by the unprimed and the primed symbols. Curve 02 is now the envelope of curve 01' and the two positions shown of curve 01 touch curve 02 at A and A'. The lines PA and P'A' are normal to curve 02' so the point 02 where they meet is the center of curvature, and the length 02A is the radius of curvature P2. If we calculate the velocity of P, we will find that it Euler-Savary Equation 233 is the same as before. In other words, it is still given by the expression in Equation (10.3). Its component perpendicular to PA is also unchanged, and we can now write down the veloc i ty of A, (10.5) The velocity of any point A, measured relative to gear 1, is equal to the velocity of A measured relative to gear 2, plus the velocity relative to gear 1 of the point in gear 2 which coincides with A. This is a standard theorem of dynamics, and for the case we are considering, it can be written as follows, vA/ 2 + ws (10.6) We now combine Equations (10.3 - 10.6), and we obtain a relation between the radii of curvature Pl and P2 of curves 01 and \u00b02 , Pl P2 (Pl- s ) - (P2+ s ) _, s_ (_1_ + _1_) Sln ~ Rpl RP2 (10.7) 234 Curvature of Tooth Profiles Finally, the left-hand side of this equation is simplified, and the relation takes the following form, which is known as the Euler-Savary equation for envelopes, _1_ (_1_ + _1_) sin q, Rpl Rp2 (10.8) In the derivation of this equation, we have used exactly the same notation used throughout the rest of this book. The two curves 01 and 02 represent the tooth profiles, A is the contact point between the teeth, and P is the pitch point. The angle q, is the operating pressure angle of the gear pair, which, as we have shown, is not constant when we are dealing with non-involute profiles. Finally, s is the coordinate giving the position of A on the line of action, and it is positive when A lies above P. In Figures 10.4 and 10.5, the two curves 01 and 02 are shown as convex, and we assumed in the derivation that Pl and P2 are positive. The equation remains valid if either curve is concave, but the corresponding radius of curvature is then negative. Curvature of Tooth Profiles 235 Gear Tooth Fillet Radius of Curvature We can use Equation (10.8) to obtain the radius of curvature at any point on a gear tooth profile, when the gear is cut by a non-involute cutter. If gear 1 represents the gear being cut, and gear 2 the cutter, it is convenient to replace the subscripts 1 and 2 by g and c. In Equation (10.8), the radii RP1 and Rp2 of the pitch circles are then replaced by the cutting pitch circle radii R~g and R~c. We simplify the equation by introducing a length RO' defined as follows, _1_ + 1 RC RC pg pc (10.9) so that the quantity (1/RO) represents the relative curvature of the two cutting pitch circles. We then solve Equation (10.8) for Pg ' obtaining the following expression, (p +s)2 c (10.10) In order to calculate the radius of curvature Pg at a point on the gear tooth profile, we use the methods described in Chapter 9 to find the coordinates (~,~) of the cutting point, corresponding to any specified point on the cutter tooth. The radius of curvature of the cutter tooth profile at this point gives the value of Pc to be used in Equation (10.10), and expressions for If> and s can be read from Figure 9.9, which shows the meshing diagram during the cutting process, tan If> s \u00a3. ~ -~ sin If> (10.11) (10.12) These values for P, If> and s are substituted into c Equation (10.10), and we obtain the radius of curvature Pg at the corresponding point on the gear tooth profile. We first use this method to find the radius of curvature at points on a gear tooth fillet, for the case when the gear is cut by a rack cutter. The cutting pitch circle radius of the rack cutter is infinite, and the cutting pitch circle of 236 Curvature of Tooth Profiles the gear coincides with its standard pitch circle, so the length RO defined by Equation (10.9) is equal to the standard pitch circle radius of the gear, ( 10.13) The radius of curvature of the circular tip of the rack cutter tooth is rrT' and the values of ~ and ~ are given by Equations (9.14 and 9.15). The profile radius of curvature at a point on the gear tooth fillet can then be found from Equation (10.10). However, since the fillet is concave, the radius of curvature given by this equation would always be negative. It is rather more convenient to change the sign in the equation, so that we obtain an expression for Pf' the magnitude of the fillet radius of curvature, (10.14) A point of particular interest is the point where the fillet meets the root circle, since the radius of curvature at this point is required for the calculation of the maximum fillet stress in the tooth. The position of the cutting point is given by Equations (9.10 - 9.15). To find the position corresponding to the point where the fillet meets the root circle, we choose the cutter position ur equal to (-y~), as we proved in Equation (9.21). We then obtain the following values, '11 0 These values are substituted into Equation (10.14), glvlng an expression for r f , the magnitude of the fillet radius of curvature, at the point where the fillet meets the root circle, Gear Tooth Fillet Radius of Curvature 237 (a r -e-r rT }2 ( 10.15) The fillet radius of curvature is found by the same procedure, for a gear which is cut by a pinion cutter. The radii of the cutting pitch circles were given by Equations (5.8 and 5.9), When these values are substituted into Equation (10.9), we obtain the following expression for the length RO' NgNCCC (N +N }2 g c (10.16) The gear tooth fillet is cut by the circular section at the tip of the cutter tooth, whose radius is r cT ' If there is no rounding at the cutter tooth tip, so that there is a sharp corner where the tooth profile meets the tip circle, then the value of r cT is zero. We use Equations (9.25 - 9.30) to find the coordinates (~,~) of the cutting point, corresponding to any specified point on the cutter tooth profile. The values of ~ and s are found, as before, from Equations (10.11 and 10.12). The radius of curvature at the corresponding point of the gear tooth fillet is given by Equation (10.10), and again we change the sign so that we obtain the magnitude P f of the radius of curvature, (rCT+s)2 P r + f cT RO sin ~ - (rCT+s) (10.17) To find the magnitude r f of the fillet radius of curvature, at the point where the fillet meets the root circle, we must determine the corresponding values of ~ and s. When we described in Chapter 9 how the shape of the gear tooth fillet is calculated, we specified the position of the cutter by the angle a between the line of centers, and the line C A' c c in the cutter. We showed in Equation (9.36) that, when a is zero, the cutter is in the correct position to cut the point on the gear tooth where the fillet meets the root circle. With 238 Curvature of Tooth Profiles this value of a, the coordinates (~,~) of the cutting point are found from Equations (9.25 - 9.30), and the values of , and s are then given by Equations (10.11 and 10.12), t RC pc - R Tc ~ 0 , 90 0 s RC pc - R Tc We substitute these values into Equation (10.17), and we obtain an expression for r f , (RTC-Rpc-rCT)2 r f r cT + c ( 10. 18) RO + (RTC-Rpc-rCT) Examples 239" ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003967_ichr.2005.1573536-Figure4-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003967_ichr.2005.1573536-Figure4-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 4.

The most important component is the receptor (the recognition system), where in general an energetic interaction specific to the substance in question (the analyte) enables it to be recognized. The development of new recognition principles, or the improvement of known processes for this purpose, is a task for the chemist or physical chemist. Campared with this challenge the next stage is less difficult; the function of this second component of any chemo- or biosensor is to \"relay\" the substance-specific signal, in other words to transform an energy quantity into an electrical signal proportional to it. Karl Cammann, born in i939 in Diisseldorf, studied Chemistry at the Technical University of Munich after obtaining a degree in chemical engineering and working in industry (Beckman Instruments) for several years. His scientific advisor for the Diplom thesis was H. Gerischer; his Ph.D. advisor was G. Ertl (University of Munich). After postdoctoral positions with G. A. Rechnitz (State University of New York at Buffalo) and S. Mazur (University of Chicago) he accepted an assistant professorship for Analytical Chemistry at the University of Ulm. In 1986 he became an Associate Professor of Analytical Chemistry at the Technical University of Munich and shortly thereafter (i987) Full Professor of Analytical Chemistry at the Westfiilische Wilhelms University of Miinster (chair of Prof. E: Umland). His research interests lie in the field of selective chemical detectors and monitors. In 1987 he received two awards for the development of a new plasma-emission-spectroscopic GC-detector (OcP van der Grinten Pollution Control Award: Technology Transfer Award of the German Ministry for Education and Science).

Often a third component, consisting of a further electronic unit (a preamplifier, impedance converter, multiplexer, analogue-to-digital converter, etc.) is placed directly after the transducer, to suppress as far as possible external influences caused by interfering electric or magnetic fields, or to feed the separate signals from several recognition systems simultaneously to the data processing unit through a single electrical connection. Chemo- and biosensors can be classified according to the type of sensor element used for molecular recognition, or according to the type of transducer. If the emphasis is on analytical selectivity, the most important component is the recognition system. If on the other hand the limit of detectability or the signal-to-noise ratio is crucial, the critical component may be the physical or electronic transducer (see Table 2). All chemo- and biosensors can be used directly for analyzing gases and liquids (the latter also includes suspensions or pastes) for specific ions or molecules, in concentrations varying from the ppb range to the percent range. As the sample preparation required for chemo- or biosensors of adequate selectivity is minimal, and the sensors are available at low cost, high rates of growth are forecast by all the market studies that have been carried out. For sensors that are less selective, it is still possible in many cases to design a comparatively inexpensive measuring instrument, by incorporating automatic sample preparation based on a chemical reaction which is selective, or on separation techniques. Flow injection analysis is especially valuable in this respect.[241 2. Chemosensors 2.1. Electrochemical Sensors 2.1.1. Ion-Selective Electrodes Till a few years ago ion-selective electrodes (including the glass pH electrode) were the most important class of chemosensors in economic terms, since at that time the \u201clambdaprobe\u201d for controlling three-way catalytic converters for automobiles was not yet produced in today\u2019s numbers because of the absence of legal requirements. In ion-selective potentiometry the data are processed using an extension of the Nernst equation derived empirically by N i ~ o l s k y . ~ ~ ~ ] This extended equation (a) relates the activity of the ion species to be determined and the measured voltage when an ISE halfcell is connected to a common reference electrode, taking into account the effects of all interfering components. RT U = U o +7 In [ a M + x K M - -MF I Li = potential of the cell R = universal gas constant T = absolute temperature F = Faraday constant Uo = standard potential of the cell aM = activity of the ion being measured zM = charge of the ion being measured (with appropriate sign) KM-, = selectivity coefficient (measured ion vs. interfering ion) a, = activity of the interfering ion z , = charge of the interfering ion (with appropriate sign) The selectivity is described by the selectivity coefficient K M - , , which unfortunately is not a constant, since it depends on the method used for the determination and on the concentrations of all the interfering species and the ion to be measured. For good ISEs it is of the order of which means that a 104-fold excess of the interfering ion would change the reading by a factor of 2 (i.e. an error of 100%). A new theoretical model of the mechanism for the selectivity in the potential generated at the phase boundary between the ionselective membrane and the measured medium has been developed in the last few years.[26-301 This is based on the studies of Koryta13 l1 and others on electrochemical phenomena at the interface between two immiscible electrolytes, and also on results from studies on corrosion involving competing electrode reactions. The basic principle of ion-selective potentiometry is the observation of an ion-selective change in the potential at the phase boundary. This in turn depends on the ion-selective change (or shift) of charge (or charge distribution) at this boundary, i.e., a significant transfer between the phases occurs only for the ion species in question. This requires that 518 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 certain energetic and geometrical variables be optimally matched. If an uncharged ion-selective membrane electrode which satisfies the electrical neutrality condition is immersed in an electrolyte solution, a transfer of charge carriers occurs between the phases. The direction of this (membrane + solution or the reverse) is determined by the gradient of the chemical potential. When only one species of ion can selectively cross the boundary (this selectivity results, for example, from specific complex formation in liquid or PVC membranes, or from the dimensions of lattice sites in polycrystalline or semicrystalline materials), this selective transfer of charge carriers leads to a redistribution and an accumulation of charge at the phase boundary. This generates an electric field, thus counteracting the ion transfer which was at first energetically favored, so that eventually, under the combined influence of the electrostatic repulsion between similarly charged particles and the attractive forces due to the oppositely charged carriers left behind, the transfer of charge carriers ceases and the reverse reaction is favored. In the equilibrium state the microscopic ion currents passing in both directions through the phase boundary are equal, and the ion-selective potential difference that is thereby established is constant and can be measured. Externally the condition is one of zero current (a requirement for potentiometric measurement). In terms of electrochemical kinetics the transport of charge carriers (measured ions) across the phase boundary between the electrode or ion-selective membrane and the solution corresponds to a directed electric current i'or i(depending on whether the direction is from membrane to solution or the reverse). In the equilibrium state i'= i= i,. The current density j , (= &/A, A = area) is called the exchange current density (see Fig. 2). The two opposing current densities :and Jmaintain the ion-selective charge distribution at the phase boundary at a constant value. Furthermore, these microscopic ion-currents actually make it possible to measure the charge distribution at this interface, since in practice one cannot avoid drawing a current of lo-'' to A in i [ pAlcmZ] Fig. 2. Schematic representation of the forward and reverse currents iand i passing through the phase boundary; the selectivity is given by the ratio of the (equilibrium) charges qH and q, for the measured and interfering ions respectively (see text). the measuring circuit, depending on the amplifier used, which corresponds to a net flow of lo9 to lo5 elementary charges per second. The ion-selective electrical potential generated at the phase boundary of such an ion sensor by selective charge separation is, of course, dependent on the concentration of the ionic species which can cross the boundary. The relationship between ion concentration and interfacial potential was derived theoretically by Nernst as long ago as 1889, in the brilliant work leading to the equation named after him. From the ion-exchange current density j,, which can be determined experimentally, the recent theory predicts the selectivity of a potentiometric sensor. The potential in each case is determined by the ionic species that has the greatest exchange current density. Other reactions may take place at the phase boundary in parallel with the process described (because real solutions usually contain interfering ions in addition to those being measured). The thermodynamic equilibrium potentials for the individual electrode reactions (in this case, the parallel processes in which the measured and interfering ions cross the phase boundary between two ionic conductors), as in the case of corroding metal electrodes, may not be fully achieved. This results in deviations from the theoretical Nernst behavior. In order to achieve a high ion-exchange current density and thereby obtain the desired selectivity, appropriate changes can be made in the thermodynamic and kinetic variables. For example, introducing into the membrane an ionophore for a particular ion species causes an increase in the exchange current density, and therefore in the selectivity for that ion. The selectivity obtained in this way is probably due to a long-range ion-dipole interaction between this particular ion species in the solution and the ionophore in the membrane surface. It is conceivable that, specifically for the potential-determining ion species, an overlap of the energy barriers involved (desolvation and decomplexation activation-energy profiles) occurs, which results in the lowering of the effective activation energy for ion transfer over the entire phase boundary. This activation energy can also be expressed in electrochemical terms as an ion-transfer resistance. This in turn is inversely proportional to the exchange current density, and can be obtained, for instance, from impedance spectra.r32* 331 The selectivity of all types of ion-selective membranes, the rapid establishment of the potential, even for thick membranes, and the abnormally large graph slopes in the U vs. log a diagram that are occasionally found (steeper than predicted by the Nernst factor preceding the logarithm of the activity of the measured ion, see Eq. (a)), can all be satisfactorily explained by this novel theoretical approach which also considers kinetic parameters. Numerous fundamental studies have been carried out in our research group since 1975 to determine the conditions that must be fulfilled for a particular ion to be potential-determining (and therefore able to be measured selectively). For every type of electrode the critical factor was the ratio of the exchange current density for the measured ion to that for the relevant interfering ion. In every case this ratio was equal to the potentiometrically measured selectivity coeficient in the extended form of the Nernst equation [Eq. (a)]. A comparison of good ion-selective electrodes reveals several common features. Firstly, they have a rather high poten- Angew. Chem. Ini. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 519 tial-determining exchange current density for the measured ion at the phase boundary between the ion-selective membrane and the solution. Secondly, for solid membranes, there is a preferential ionic conductivity in regions near the surface (e.g., Ag,S is a good conductor for Ag@ ions, and LaF, doped with EuZ0 is a good conductor for F' ions). In PVC membranes with selective ionic charge carriers the preferred method is to use only iondipole interactions, as is evident from a glance at the list of so-called electroactive compounds that are available.[341 Apparently the course of the activation energy threshold for the transfer of ions from the membrane phase to the solution, together with the course of activation energy for the desolvation process, determines the intersection point (i.e., the effective energy of activation for the phase transition of the relevant ion). The existence of a purely kinetic effect in favor of the ion being measured is a necessary, but not a sufficient, condition for a selective Nernst sensor which performs well and above all is stable over long periods. In addition there must be a certain degree of nonpolarizability. This quantity, as electrochemists use it, is, in simple terms, a measure of the ability of an electrochemical half-cell to maintain a constant potential regardless of the instantaneous current density at the interface. Good ion-selective electrodes, like good reference electrodes, have a relatively steep characteristic curve in the current vs. voltage diagram (C-V curve) for the ion being measured. Viewed from this standpoint, the interfering ions have characteristic C-V curves that are less steep than that for the ion being measured. If these ions are present in a solution together with the measured ions, according to our present state of knowledge a mixed potential is established, as is the case for corroding metal electrodes. This is determined predominantly by the equilibrium potential for that electrode reaction (transfer of ions between phases) which has the steepest C-V characteristic. To obtain a favorable C-V characteristic over as large a range of overpotential as possible, it is also necessary to take concentration polarization effects into account. Here higher concentrations of the measured ions in the membrane phase turn out to be beneficial; their diffusion from there into the solution, which has an unfavorable effect on the limits of detection, is hindered by complexation and by the charges of appropriately chosen counterions. This also has the advantage of increasing the buffer capacity for the chemical potential of the measured ions in the membrane phase. A detailed treatment of these aspects has been Ion-selective electrodes can be used as electrochemical half-cells in combination with suitable constant-potential reference electrodes for the quantitative determination of a wide range of substances (see Table 1). They can be classified according to the type of membrane, viz., glass, solid, liquid, or PVC membrane electrodes.[36q 371 Glass and solid membrane electrodes are robust and have a typical lifetime of several years, much longer than liquid or PVC membrane electrodes, which only remain effective for about six months, depending on the application, unless one is prepared to accept large sacrifices in sensitivity and selectivity. However, for the latter types of electrodes some manufacturers have introduced a modular design which allows the easy and rapid renewal of sensitive electrode elements. The most important types of ionophores required to make one's own selective PVC membranes are available commercially,[381 and are supplied complete with instructions; these were developed mainly by Simon's research group in Zurich. 2.1.2 Ion-Selective Field Effect Transistors (ISFETs) It was believed for a long time that in ion-selective field effect transistors, first described by Bergveldt3'* 401 in 1970, we at last had a new generation of sensors which met all the requirements of miniaturizability, compatibility with microelectronics, and the capability for being mass-produced, with attendant cost savings. The now familiar production techniques of microelectronics seemed to offer prospects for developing chemosensors in the form of disposable mass-produced articles. Since then the initial euphoria has given way to a more realistic assessment, since these sensors still pose difficulties with regard to long-term stability and integration with miniaturized reference electrodes. Nevertheless, it is of interest to examine this class of sensors in a little more detail in the following discussion, since they bring together the disciplines of chemistry, electronics, and thin film technology, and they provide the basis for biochips. An ISFET can be generally regarded as a very miniaturized version of an ion-selective half-cell with an in-built impedance converter. It can be used to determine the activity of not only individual ion species, for which ion-selective macro-electrodes are also available, but also-in the form of an enzyme-coated ISFET (b iochip ta wide variety of substrates. The transistors that are used can in most cases be made as very small devices, allowing the accommodation of several sensitive surfaces for detecting different ions or substrates on a single chip with an area of only a few mm2. The entire electronic control circuit, including temperature compensation, can also be fitted on the same chip. The basic building block of all ISFETs is a field effect transistor (FET), in which the metallic gate of a conventional transistor is replaced by an insulating layer, above which is an ion-selective layer. The value at any instant of the gating potential, which controls the current between the source and the drain, is determined by the activity of the ion species being measured, through the presence of the ion-selective surface film. Figure 3 shows the basic construction of an ISFET in a form which has certain advantages. Often, however, instead of measuring the variation of the source-todrain current as a function of the activity of the measured ion 520 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. EngI. 30 (1991) 516-539 species, one measures the control voltage that must be applied via a reference electrode to hold this current at a constant value; this makes it possible to maintain an optimal working point, chosen to reduce temperature effects. In an ISFET the ion-selective PVC membrane, which is applied to the gate surface mainly by spin-coating, forms the sensor element, which recognizes specific substances. By using known electroactive compounds, all types of ion-selective PVC membrane electrodes can also be incorporated into ISFETs. However, problems with the adhesion of the plastic membrane to the gate surface result in contact difficulties, since the membrane which gives the selectivity becomes detached, usually after a few weeks. In a pH-ISFET[41-44] protons produce a field, whose intensity depends on the H@ concentration, at a thin film of SiO,, Si,N,, A1,0, or Ta,O, . A serious disadvantage of these materials is that in many cases they still have some sensitivity to light and redox systems. Also, the diffusion of impurities into the lower layers of the semiconductor, which are known to be sensitive to this, usually results in a slow drift of the measuring signal, of the order of a few mV per day. The disadvantages mentioned, together with the fundamental problem of leakage-path formation in the insulation of the remaining transistor surfaces, which again causes drift in the readings before the device finally ceases to function, has so far prevented ISFETs from achieving a larger commercial success. However, recent developments in the area of electrolytic glazing offer some hope of improvements.[451 In the development of ISFETs work is already in progress on multisensor arrays146. 471 in which several different ion-selective sensor elements controlling separate gates are integrated on a single chip. Here, however, one is approaching the limits of miniaturization technology. The spin-coating technique cannot lay down closely spaced regions of different selectivity less than 1 mm2 in area. Experiments in which a common plasticized PVC membrane is laid down to cover all the gates before local regions above individual gate surfaces are doped with different electroactive compounds have also encountered problems, because diffusion of ionic carriers within the membrane smears out the ion selectivities. It is also necessary to integrate into the ISFET a miniaturized reference electrode with long-term stability, in order to exploit fully the advantages of the device as a miniaturized chemosensor. If the dimensions of the salt-bridge elements are too small, resulting in only short-term resistance of the integrated reference electrode to invasion by potentialfalsifying substances, it will only be possible to make disposable sensors. Here, however, it is important to investigate the possibility of using a conventional thick-film design for the electrodes, which might also be cheaper. In this connection an interesting alternative to ISFETs are film electrodes produced using planar technology.[481 These too offer the advantages of miniaturized sensors which can be economically mass-produced. One commercially available 501 is based on the principle of zero-point potentiometry. In this one-shot disposable sensor, the measuring and reference systems are identical, and as the pair are made under identical conditions from the same materials the potential difference with the relevant membranes in contact with the same solution is zero. If one now deposits on one of the sensor surfaces a reference solution of known concentra- tion, and on the other the solution to be tested (see Fig. 4), according to the Nernst equation the observed potential difference gives a direct measure of the concentration difference between the two solutions for the relevant measured ion species (concentration meter design). The errors that are pos sible in difference methods of this sort (where no transport of samples is involved) are very small, as the problems with conventional reference electrodes (variations in potential due to diffusion), ageing effects, and electrode poisoning effects are avoided. However, continuous measurements are not possible with this device. 2.1.3. Ion-Conducting Solid Electrolyte Sensors The lambda-probe, which has become familiar because of the three-way catalytic converter, is currently the most widely used of all electrochemical sensors. It enables the measurement of the residual oxygen content in the exhaust from internal combustion engines, making use of the selective ionic conductivity of the 02@ ion in yttrium-doped ZrO, at temperatures above 400\u00b0C. A potentiometer device for measuring 0, concentrations can be designed as a concentration cell, which allows the gaseous oxygen to be in equilibrium with the lattice oxygen in the solid electrolyte [reaction (l)]. If there is a higher oxygen concentration on one side of the ZrO, membrane than on the other (i.e. on one side an oxygen partial pressure p r f , for example, of the outside atmosphere or of a reference gas, and on the other side a partial pressure pgImPle, for example, of the exhaust gas or other medium being analyzed), according to the Nernst equation a potential difference proportional to the logarithm of the ratio of the two oxygen pressures is set up [Eq. (b)]. RT pgf U=-ln4 F pgTPle The selectivity of this sensor results from the fact that in ZrO, there is a selective conductivity for OZe ions (similar to that for Fe ions in single crystals of LaF,), which also determines the surface reaction.

Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 521 metric prin~iple.[~\u2019~ With regard to the other analytical properties of the device, the same arguments as for ion-selective membrane electrodes apply here. The range of concentrations that can be measured is enormous ( > 10 decades), provided that the current in the measuring circuit is considerably less than the exchange current for the redox reaction (a) at the platinum contact electrodes. The precision in this case also is limited to 0.1 mV, and at constant temperature this gives a relative precision of about 2 YO in the measured concentration. This accuracy is sufficient for the typical use in a three-way catalyst for automobiles; due to the logarithmic dependence of the signal according to the Nernst equation an immense potential difference results. LaF, , which has an appreciable ionic conductivity even at room temperature, has been found to be a suitable solid electrolyte for the determination of 0, at room temperature.[\u201d] In this material a change in potential is produced by OHe and HOF ions formed as intermediates, and this allows an indirect measurement of the 0, High temperature solid electrolytes with Oze conductivity can also be used at a constant oxygen concentration for detecting oxidizable substances, by making use of a second reaction that takes place at the electrodes. An example where this occurs is in the catalytic oxidation of NH, and the determination of chromium in molten steel,[5s1 by reaction (2) . 3OZe(SIC) + 2Cr(metal) --t Cr,03(2nd phase) + be-(metal) (SIC = solid ionic conductor) (2) Here the OZe ions moving in the solid electrolyte oxidize the chromium with the release of electrons, which can be measured as a change in potential. It has also been shown that silicon can be determined by a similar method when ZrSiO, is the solid ionic A very compact sensor suitable for applications at these high temperatures (above 1600\u00b0C) has recently been developed; this can be used for up to 10 h in molten Special sensors have also been developed for determining oxygen in liquid sodium, which is used in fast breeder reactor^.^^^*^^^ In addition to withstanding high temperatures and mechanical loading, these sensors must also be resistant to radiation and corrosion by sodium. Solid electrolyte sensors that have been developed for determining substances other than oxygen include especially those for SO,/SO, and C0,.[601 These consist for example, of Li,SO, + Ag,S0,[57~6*-641 and have a working temperature of about 400 \u201cC. The sensitivity of such sensors is in the range of 3 to lo4 ppm of SO,, and they are currently being tested for use in monitoring exhaust gases. The measurement of CI, is also possible with surface-modified solid electrolytes, e.g. the ionic conductor LiAICI, with its surface covered by a thin film of LiCl or AlCl,. The cell voltage is determined by the partial pressure of chlorine, and obeys the Nernst equation.t65* 2.1.4. Amperometric Sensors To avoid the requirements for temperature constancy in the lambda-probe, and obtain a linear instead of a logarithmic relationship between signal and concentration with higher accuracy, which is essential in engines working with I > 1 .O, the sensor can alternatively be designed as a limiting current probe.t67. 681 This configuration, which can also be operated at temperatures below 400\u00b0C, differs from the potentiometric form of a lambda-probe in that a current flows through the 0, concentration cell as a result of an externally applied voltage (\u201cpumping voltage\u201d), thereby transporting oxygen from one side of the ZrO, membrane to the other (an \u201coxygen pump\u201d). In front of the cathode there is a diffusion barrier (e.g. a porous ceramic layer), which the oxygen must traverse before being reduced and transported through the ZrO, to the anode (Fig. 6). If the applied voltage is chosen so that each oxygen molecule that arrives is immediately reduced at the cathode, a voltage-independent limiting current region is obtained, as in polarography. The current then flowing is directly proportional to the 0, concentration to be measured, and the temperature coefficient is no longer given by the Nernst factor, but is determined by the properties of the diffusion barrier.t691 The amperometric measuring principle has largely been used to advantage in industrial chemosensors for gases. The classic example of this is the Clark oxygen The oxygen whose concentration is to be measured diffuses through a gas-permeable membrane 10 to 50pm thick, which is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon) or a fluorinated ethylene-propylene copolymer (FEP) with a very high permeability to oxygen. Behind this membrane is an electrolyte solution containing chloride ions, in which are immersed a platinum or gold cathode as the working electrode 522 Angew. Chem. In!. Ed. Engl. 30 (199!) 516-539 and an anode of Ag/AgCl as the constant potential counterelectrode (cf. Fig. 14). The reduction of the oxygen takes place at a working electrode potential of approximately - 0.8 V relative to the Ag/AgCl electrode. The rate-limiting step is the diffusion of the oxygen through the gas-permeable membrane, and the rate of this depends on the gradient of the 0, partial pressure across the membrane. The current is therefore determined primarily by the 0, partial pressure. As the membrane is impermeable to liquids and electrolytes, the sensor can also be used to determine dissolved oxygen in liquids; in this case the dependence on the partial pressure must be noted. The sensor gives the same reading for air and for a liquid that is saturated with air! To obtain a reading which indicates the dissolved oxygen in mgL-' it is necessary to calibrate the sensor. A disadvantage of most 0, sensors based on this principle is that oxygen is consumed. When they are used in stationary liquids there may not be a sufficient flow of oxygen to the electrode (resulting in an oxygen-deficient layer in the liquid whose growth follows a I/i law), which gives readings that are too low. The solution being measured must therefore be stirred, but this leads to some extent to a dependence of the observed signal on the convection flow. The effects of this disadvantage (especially in biomedical applications) can be minimized by reducing the area of the working electrode, which in turn causes difficulties because the current then becomes very small. Efforts are now in progress to overcome this problem by using an array of ultramicroelectrodes (Fig. 7). The use individual electrodes as small as 1 pm in diameter, has led to such low reaction rates that the Brownian motion of the molecules together with the radial diffusion sphere ensures a sufficient oxygen supply. However, sensor technologies of this sort can only be put into effect with the most modern microelectronics manufacturing processes. Amperometric oxygen electrodes are widely used as transducers for many types of biosensors (see Table 7). Many gas sensors for SO,, CO and NO function on a similar principle. The measurement is based on the electro- chemical oxidation of the relevant gas in the space separated off by the gas-permeable membrane. The selectivity of amperometric sensors can be tailored to suit particular needs. Up to now the main technological use for amperometric chemosensors has been for measurements on gases, even though amperometry is also suitable for analyzing liquids, because of their limited selectivity. In the most commonly used aqueous electrolytic media, the usable voltage range extends over about 2 V. All substances that can be altered electrochemically, i.e. those that can be oxidized or reduced, which number many tens of thousands, are converted at voltages within this range. In the ideal case one can expect to distinguish ten substances at best in a voltammetric diagram by virtue of their different half-wave potential^.^'^] The separation capacity achieved by the proper choice of a working electrode potential within the limiting current region for the substance to be determined is in general inadequate for the analysis of unknown liquids. However, if a gas-permeable membrane is interposed, the interfering substances are limited to gases that can permeate the membrane equally well, and also undergo electrochemical reactions under these conditions. In the case of the Clark 0, sensor, for example, these are chlorine and some haloforms (CHX,). These interferences can be even further reduced by a careful choice of the membrane material and the electrolyte. Occasionally a difference in electrochemical reversibility coupled with pulse techniques is also exploited to increase selectivity. The limit of detectability for amperometric gas sensors is determined by the noise level of the background current. Nevertheless, chemosensors for environmental applications (measurement of NO,, SO, etc.) can be employed in the low ppm region without special signal-processing techniques. 2.1.5. Galvanic Sensors Amperometric measurements are also possible without an external current source, if a galvanic circuit is formed. The Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (199f) 516-539 523 best known example is the so-called internal electrolysis, in which Cu2@ ions are reductively deposited on a platinum wire mesh when this is connected to a zinc rod immersed in a zinc sulfate solution which is separated by a diaphragm from the solution containing the copper ions. Here again the driving force for the current which arises when zinc dissolves and copper ions are deposited on the platinum surface is the difference between the chemical potentials, or the energy difference between the two redox reactions in the electrochemical series. If in this example one connects a galvanometer externally between the zinc electrode and the platinum mesh, the current vs. time diagram obtained during the electrolysis has an exponential shape. The quantitative deposition of the Cu2@ ions on the platinum mesh is complete when the current has fallen to about 0.1 YO of its initial value. In this case, instead of using the gravimetric method, the amount of copper deposited can be calculated by Faraday\u2019s law from the total charge that has flowed (the integral of the current vs. time curve) as long as interference from side-reactions is absent. This coulometric procedure is one of the most precise absolute determination methods available, and requires no calibration. Coulometry is still an elegant method with exciting new possibilities for the development of intelligent sensors, and regrettably is too little used. Over 25 years ago a coulometric measurement cell for SO, was proposed.[\u201d] Subsequent advances in miniature electrochemical cells based on thin-film and thick-film technologies allow the easy application of such a cell as a chemosensor (Fig. 8). If the reaction is quantitative, a current of the order of 1 PA, which is easily measurable, corresponds to an analyte reaction rate of only lo-\u2019\u2019 mols-\u2019 ! Here the selectivity is achieved by a preceding chemical reaction or membrane separation stage, either of which can nowadays easily be realized by means of a suitable layered structure. An \u201canalytical fuel cell\u201d of this kind has recently also appeared on the market in the form of an alcohol meter (for analysis of breath samples). As well as using the catalytic activity of noble metal electrodes, it is also possible, of course, to use enzymes to give increased selectivity. The H,O,, which is then often produced in quantities proportional to the amount of analyte, can also be easily determined coulometrically. A galvanic measuring cell for the determination of oxygen in solutions has been well-known since the rnid-1960~.[\u2019~1 In contrast to the Clark sensor, the Mackereth oxygen sensor uses lead instead of silver as the anode material, and silver instead of platinum as the cathode material. This has the important advantage that a calibration in a blank solution (such as a saturated sulfide solution) is no longer necessary, since the electrodes produce no current in the absence of oxygen. For the internal electrolyte either sodium hydroxide or potassium hydrogen carbonate can be used. 2.2. Semiconductor Gas Sensors Sensors based on semiconductors are often used in gas alarm devices. The underlying principle here depends on a transfer of electrons between a semiconductor surface and adsorbed gas molecules. This charge transfer results in an increase or decrease in the number of free charge carriers at the semiconductor surface, causing a change in conductivity which can be measured and is proportional to the number of reacting gas molecules present. Oxidizable gases such as hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, and alkanes of low molecular mass reduce the surface conductivity of certain n-type semiconductors (SnO,, ZnO etc.), which are used at temperatures between 100 and 600\u00b0C. Reducible gases such as chlorine, oxygen, or ozone have an analogous effect on p-type semiconductors (NiO, CuO etc.). The mechanism of the electron transfer is still under intensive study and one possible model shown in Figure 9. When a gas molecule of the analyte approaches the surface of the semiconductor it first undergoes a weak physisorption. In the following step it can be either desorbed or chemisorbed with the transfer of an electron. The latter process causes a distortion of the valence 524 Angew. Chem. I n f . Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 and conduction bands, and alters the electronic work function. Depending on the composition and the structure of the surface and on the interactions between the molecules and the surface, certain types of molecules can act preferentially. The selectivity of simple sensors of this kind, which can be easily and cheaply produced with thick film techniques (see Fig. lo), can be altered within certain limits using existing knowledge of heterogeneous catalysis. To obtain improved sensitivities and selectivities for particular applications, however, mechanistic studies of the kind used in heterogeneous catalysis research, requiring sophisticated and expensive equipment, are necessary, rather than the time-consuming trial-and-error methods of nonspecialists. Often the semiconductor surface is modified by introducing metals such as palladium, silver, or platinum, whose purpose is to weaken the 0, double bond. The selectivity can be further increased to a certain extent by choosing the best operating temperature (Fig. 11) . Nevertheless, the selectivities of these types of b) a) aK[%] 6ol A K [%] 6ol 4017p 20 , . ::p+ '\\ 200 400 600 800 T[\"C] 200 400 600 800 T[\"C] Fig. 11. Effects of temperature and of the presence of platinum on the selectivity of an SnO, gas sensor. a) Pure SnO, sensor, b) SnO, sensor with 1 % platinum. sensors based on semiconductors are often insufficient.[731 The surface composition, density of charge carriers, Fermi energy level, number of reactive centers at the surface, and even the extent of distortion of the bands, can be affected by the presence of other species (interfering molecules such as water, catalyst poisons etc.). This can cause changes in selectivity. These effects must be taken into account during calibration. A change in the selectivity, sensitivity (signal per unit concentration in the analyte) or zero point of the calibration line between carrying out the calibration and the analysis is inadmissable. As it is a simple matter to modify the sensitivity, experiments are now in progress to use a sensor array in which each miniaturized individual sensor has a different sensitivity profile. Samples which contain interfering substances cause each individual sensor to give a different signal. By carrying out calibration measurements with different concentrations of the various interfering components, it should be possible, by a pattern recognition analysis, to use a special algorithm for the calculation of the true sample content. A simultaneous analysis on a mixture using such a sensor array should in principle enable the determination of every substance which has an effect on the signal, if more sensors than components to be analyzed are used. This has in fact been achieved for simple and well-defined Nevertheless, the analytical chemist with experience of industrial practice will harbour doubts about the feasibility of this method for real samples whose composition is generally unknown and continually changing. Taking the simplest form of an analytical function (c) is it possible to keep the parameters a and e constant between the calibration and the measurement? How can the algorithm take into account situations where interfering substances poison the sensors to differentor cause different drift phenomena? What are the consequences of \"matrix effects\" which cause the sensitivity e to vary from sample to sample? Table 3. Materials for selective chemosensor elements.

Spectroscopic analysis, spectrophoto- Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 525 metry, fluorimetry, and luminescence measurements are well-established and proven techniques. Their adaptation for performing in situ analyses with miniaturized probes that can be employed in the same way as chemosensors has come about through the application of modern light-guide technology. For use in conjunction with fiber optics a new class of sensors was developed, known as optodes (also as opt r o d e ~ ) . [ ~ ~ - ~ ~ ] These optical sensors make use of changes in fluorescence, absorption, chemiluminescence, light scattering, polarization, Raman scattering, refractive index, or reflection, which at present are still detected by conventional optical or spectroscopic instruments. The light input is fed into the sample by a light-guide. The return path for the fluorescence emission or reflected light from the sample to the detector can be through the same light-guide or through a second branch (in a Y-branched light-guide). Figure 12 shows as an example the layout of a fiber-optic analytical system as commonly used for fluorescence measurements. The AC signal produced by a chopper is amplified frequency- and phase-selectively by a lock-in amplifier. This procedure makes it possible to measure delayed fluorescence as well (by the phase shift). Fluorescence and luminescence measurements give high sensitivity compared with other optical measurement methods and are therefore preferable for trace analysis. , 1 Fig. 12. Fiber-optic system for analysis by fluorescence measurements; the excitation unit (2) contains the light source (xenon or halogen lamp or laser) producing a beam which is passed through a monochromator (3), a chopper (4). and an optical coupler (5) into the light guide (6). The fluorescence radiation passes through a second light guide branch, coupler (7). and monochromator (8) to the detector (9), which consists of a photodiode or photomultiplier. (1) is the base plate. Chemiluminescence measurements have an additional advantage, as they do not require an external light source. However, because chemiluminescence is a comparatively rare phenomenon, the method is mainly limited to systems such as H,O,/luminol. The great advantage of fiber-optic sensors is that the measurements do not require a reference system, apart from comparison of the light intensities in the beam before and after it passes through the sample compartment (i.e. measuring Zo/l), or the use of a dual beam arrangement to compensate for fluctuations in the intensity of the light source. With the electrochemical sensors described earlier a second electrode giving a constant potential is always needed. Optodes can easily be miniaturized, as light-guides of suitably small diameter (e.g. 0.1 mm) are commercially available, although increasing miniaturization makes good coupling of the input radiation more difficult. Optodes can also be used in complex media such as blood. They are less susceptible to disturbance by electromagnetic fields and temperature changes than are potentiometric electrodes and semiconductor sensors. On the other hand, problems can arise from scattered and background light falling on optodes. In many cases these sensors can only be used within a small range of concentrations, like the spectroscopic analytical cuvette techniques on which they are usually based, and their selectivity is similar to that of those techniques. The detection limit also leaves room for future improvements, as it is restricted at present by the thinness of the optical films generally used for the measurements (see Table 4). Despite all this, fiber-optic sensors are expected to emerge from their present status as research devices and find a place in industrial use in future; the flow-through cuvettes will probably be abandoned first. The types most studied are pH-optodes. The technique is based on the immobilization of an indicator dye at the end of the light-guide, which allows pH values to be determined by measuring fluorescence or absorption. Indicators that have been used include 8-hydroxypyrene-I ,3,6-trisulfonate (HPTS) as well as conventional dyes such as eosin or phenyl orange.1791 Such pH-optodes also form the basis for a range of gas sensors. For example, CO, and NH, optodes contain a pH optode immersed in a suitable internal solution behind a gas-permeable membrane, as in the analogous potentiometric sensors. The acidity or basicity of the above gases alters the pH of the internal solution by an amount related to the gas concentration to be measured. Such sensors are of particular interest for in vivo applications (blood, body fluids, etc.), since unlike electrochemical sensors they do not have electrical connections to voltage-carrying components. The fields of application are similar for 0, optodes, which work on the principle of direct fluorescence quenching. The mathematical basis of this type of sensor is given by the Stern-Volmer equation.[\"] The fluorescence of an indicator such as decacyclene or perylene, which is immobilized on the tip of the light-guide, is partially quenched by oxygen. This effect can be used, after calibration, for the determination of Some new developments are based on applying knowledge of the selectivity mechanism of ion-selective electrodes to fiber-optic systems. For example, valinomycin as a selective K@ carrier can be immobilized in a suitable matrix, together with a pH-sensitive indicator in its protonated form, so as to produce a membrane which can be attached to the tip of a light-guide. If this sensor is immersed in a solution containing K@ ions, these ions will preferentially enter the membrane phase, with the formation of a potassium-valinomycin complex. To maintain electrical neutrality H@ ions (as the most readily mobile ion species) move out of the membrane phase, causing a change in the absorption or fluorescence of the pH indicator in the membrane, which can easily be measured.Is l ] In conclusion it should be noted that at present there are only a few manufacturers of optodes, and it will certainly take several more years before such fiber-optic analytical systems become as widely used as electrochemical sensors. 0 2 . 2.4. Mass-Sensitive Transducers Chemosensors based on mass-sensitive transducers have been less thoroughly investigated, and their use has so far been restricted to special applications. The measuring prin- 526 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) S16-S39 ciple depends on the shift Af in the characteristic frequency of a quartz oscillator due to a mass change Am, which occurs when a layer of foreign material is deposited on its surface. The oscillation frequency is usually in the 9 to 14 MHz range, and the selectivity is obtained by coating the surface with an appropriate adsorbent. By using phthalocyanine, for example, planar-conjugated molecules and higher alcohols can be determined; in this case mass changes as small as g can be d e t e ~ t e d . ~ ~ ~ * * ~ ] When working in vacuum the relationship between A f and Am is linear for small values of Am and is given by the Sauerbrey equation [Eq. (d)].[s41 f, = resonance frequency in the unloaded condition m = mass of the quartz crystal in the unloaded condition The suitability of quartz oscillators for gas analysis has been demonstrated beyond doubt. Difficulties arise, however, in the search for selective ab- or adsorbents for particular analytes, and in compensation for the effects of moisture and other interfering deposits. Also it must be noted that the surface adsorption or film absorption are not usually reversible. Transducers of this type are potentially important for biosensors for gas phase use. At present, however, their high cost inhibits the development of practicable oneshot disposable sensors. When quartz oscillator detectors are used directly in liqu i d ~ [ ~ \u2019 * 861 without a drying stage before the mass-change measurement, the damping of the oscillations must also be taken into account [Eq. (e)]. q = viscosity of the liquid p = density of the liquid pQ = shear modulus of the quartz pQ = density of the quartz The latest st~dies,\u2019~\u2019] which are based on an exact coulometric calibration, show that a 0.41m thick layer of the surrounding liquid moves with the quartz crystal surface during its oscillation. This makes exacting demands on the constancy of all the effects that shift the frequency. The layer of liquid that moves with the surface reduces the mass resolution (i.e. the ability to measure very small mass changes). It should also be mentioned here that a similar device is marketed for determining the densities of liquids ; density changes of the order of a few parts per million can be detected. Surface acoustic wave (SAW) detectors are devices in which acoustic waves are produced at the surface of a suitable material, by setting up appropriate resonance conditions between two surfaces. The resonance frequency is typically a few hundred MHz, and according to the Sauerbrey equation (d) this should result in greater sensitivity. However, this cannot be fully exploited, as it is only possible to measure the change in mass within a very thin layer between the two specially shaped electrodes. The selectivity is governed by the same considerations as above. 2.5. Applications of Chemosensors The use of chemosensors in technology has grown enormously during the past decade. R & D in the field of chemosensors is being energetically pursued worldwide, but especially in Japan. The range of uses of conventional chemosensors extends from chemical process control technology through applications in clinical chemistry to municipal services. A field of special importance for chemosensors is environmental protection, where increased public awareness and ever stricter legislation make it increasingly necessary to set up on-line monitoring systems for environmentally significant gases such as NO, SO,, NH,, CO, or C0,.t88-931 The wide variety of chemosensors that have so far been developed means that in many cases the most suitable one for a particular application can be chosen from a number of alternative constructions. As an example Table 4 lists the various methods of measurement available for determining a single substance, in this case oxygen. The largest market for chemosensors at present is the automobile industry, which even in 1987 required over ten million oxygen sensors (lambda-probes) throughout the world for controlling the operating conditions of the threeway catalytic converter. A similarly large market exists for semiconductor sensors based on SnO, for detecting oxidizable gases such as CO, NO, and CH,, which are used mainly in monitoring instruments (alarm devices) in underground garages, tunnels, and coal mines, and for measuring emissions in industry. Here the poor selectivity is not a serious disadvantage; on the contrary it gives extra safety. Conventional electrochemical sensors too are widely used in measurement and control technology, especially glass pH electrodes, of which about a million are produced every year throughout the The largest areas of use for conventional potentiometric sensors are in medicine and environmental technology. In clinical chemistry, for example, ion-selective sensors have many uses for measurements in biological media.[95 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 527 They have been used successfully for some years to measure concentrations of individual ion species such as NaO, KO, CaZO, and Mg20 in blood. Unlike other methods of analysis such as atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), which always measure the total concentration of the ion species (both free and bound ions), ion-selective sensors allow a direct measurement of the activity of the free ion, which is the effective concentration and the only component that is relevant for medical diagnostic purposes.r1001 Fluoride in urine and blood can be determined by, for example, a LaF, single crystal electrode, which gives an extremely high selectivity for Fe. A knowledge of the fluoride concentration is important in the chemotherapeutic treatment of osteoporosis and kidney disease, and in the determination of the Fe content of the blood after the use of narcotic^.^^'] The detection of traces of cyanide in blood is necessary during treatment of hypertonia with sodium pentacyanonitrosylferrate(i1) (sodium nitroprusside), and this too can be carried out with an ion-selective electrode. Iodide- and bromide-selective sensors are of interest in clinical toxicology, in connection with radioimmunological investigations into the functioning of the thyroid gland (using the iodine-I31 isotope) and the administration of the bromine-containing sleeping drugs, ureides. Use of the latter often causes toxic effects due to metabolic dehalogenation and a dangerous build-up of Bre ions. In treating manic-depressive patients a control of the lithium content is of particular importance; this can be determined using ion-selective membrane electrodes which consist of PVC and a lithium ionophore such as ETH 1810 (N, N-dicyclohexyl-N', Nf-diisobutyl-cis-cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxamide). The non-invasive measurement of the transcutaneous blood CO, partial pressure is a technique that can be used to advantage in operations, in amputational surgery and in sport related medical practice. Here the sensor works on a principle analogous to that of other potentiometric gas sensors such as NH, or SO, detectors. It is essentially a pH probe consisting of a glass electrode and an Ag/AgCl reference electrode. The gas diffuses through a semipermeable membrane into an intermediate electrolyte, whose pH changes according to the gas partial pressure and is measured by the pH electrode. Figure 13 shows a sketch of the sensor. The sensors that have been described are still used mainly for in vitro measurements, but the main research objective is to develop catheter needle electrodes for in vivo measure- cover glass electrode housing electrolyte rese electrolyte gas membrane Fig. 13. Gas sensor for measuring CO, partial pressures in medical applications[95]; the sensor allows transcutaneous measurement of C0,. ments. Figure 14 shows an example of an amperometric catheter electrode for measuring 0, partial ISFETs have proved successful mainly in medical technology. Up to now pH-ISFETs have become commercially available and are used for determining acidity in blood and serum (whose normal pH value is 7.41) and other body fluids. Another technological application is in the photographic industry; here ISFETs are used in process control, to maintain important parameters such as the concentrations of H@ and Ag@ ions at constant levels.[102] The Ektachem film electrodes mentioned earlier (cf. Fig. 4) can be used as one-shot disposable sensors in medical applications. The Kodak Ektachem DT 60 is a commercially available 50 . and can be used for the determination of KO, NaO, Cle and other substances. Figure 15 shows a film sensor of this type for potassium. Potentiometric sensors can be used for environmental protection both in laboratory investigations and on-line applications. One task that they can perform is the continuous monitoring of NO: and NHT concentrations in groundwater and drinking water. This gives early warning of excessive concentrations in the water, allowing the necessary corrective measures to be applied quickly. Figure 16 is an example of a recorder trace obtained with a sensor used to monitor nitrate in drinking water. The trace shows immediately if the maximum legally permitted nitrate concentration of 50 mg L-' (50 ppm) is exceeded. Here the technique of flow injection analysis (FIA) can be used, since the selectivity of the sensor makes a preliminary chromatographic separation unnecessary.\" 041 528 Angew. Chem. Inr. Ed.

In process engineering, ion-selective sensors for Ca2@, Na@, NHF, or CIo can monitor the purity of boiler feed water in steam with a glass electrode for Na@, ppb concentrations are detectable.

Table 5 lists important characteristics of the various types of sensors described here, such as the range of measurement, useful life and detection limits. ISEs that do not incorporate PVC membranes can also be used to a limited extent in nonaqueous media. For example, it is well known in the oil industry that impurities in crude oil feedstocks can adversely affect the refining process, and it is therefore essential to carry out continuous anaIyses.[lo6] Table 6 gives a summary of some commercially available sensors.\" \"1 2.6.

These methods will at the same time provide a deeper insight into the mechanisms of functioning of the selective sensor elements. A changing trend can now be seen in the technology of chemosensors, away from the hitherto conventional sensor design principle based on electrode-like structures, towards miniaturization with recognition systems and signal processing integrated in a single device.\" 12, ' l31 These developments can benefit from the existing technology of microelectronics. Besides savings in materials, this technology can also lead to considerable cost reductions through mass production, and may sometimes even result in sensors with improved proper- ties. Physical sensors for a wide variety of variables are produced by these methods and are already well-known, while chemical sensors made in this way are just appearing on the market. Thick-film technology offers an alternative way of integrating sensor recognition systems and subsequent signal processing on a single chip, and is within the financial budgets of medium-sized industrial concerns. A potentiometric hydrogen sensor based on thick-film technology and developed by the Battelle Institute is shown in Figure 37. The sensitive material is Nasicon (Na, +xZr,Si,P,-,O,,), a solid ionic conductor which responds to hydrogen at elevated temperatures, but is a good Na@ sensor at room temperature and in solutions. This sensor based on Nasicon is at present one of only a few commercially available sensors made by thick-film technology. 3. Biosensors A biosensor combines in a single sensor element the sensitivity of a chemosensor with the selectivity of a biological recognition mechanism. The great promise offered by such a combination has been the subject of increasing research efforts in the last few years, as is evident from the rapid growth in the number ofpublications in this area and the appearance of the first monographs on the A number of different biosensors with biological or biochemical recognition systems coupled to various types of chemosensors have been demonstrated. Although to date biosensors have commercial importance only in medical technology, their use in future in other fields such as environmental monitoring and process engineering is likely. For this reason some relevant developments are described below. Biosensors functioning on enzymic principles belong to the oldest generation of sensors in this category; they employ selective chemical reactions catalyzed by selected enzymes. The most effective method is to immobilize the relevant enzymes in or on the sensor element, which allows the device to be used repeatedly. Unfortunately the stability of enzymes immobilized in this way is at present rather limited, and consequently the lifetime at room temperature under working conditions varies between only a few days and several months, depending on the enzyme used and the immobilizing technique. However, if it is refrigerated and freeze-dried, an immobilized enzyme retains its activity almost indefinitely. Another class of biosensors are immunosensors. These operate on a different principle, namely the selective association between antigens and antibodies. This specific biocomplex formation can be exploited in a number of ways as a means of analysis for one of the two partners. The methods that are of importance for the development of these sensors differ from those involved in radio immuno-assay (RIA), and are based either on enzymic immuno-assay (EIA) in combination with various detection methods (photometry, amperometry, or surface plasmon resonance), or on direct potentiometry . Some of the systems under development function without isolation of biomolecules. In other words, these are enzymic biosensors in which biological materials such as intact cell cultures, tissue sections or microorganisms are used directly without purification; for immunosensors one uses intact receptors, receptor structures or reconstituted units. As the development of biosensors follows on that of transducers or chemosensors, biosensors are not yet at such an advanced stage, and only a few types are commercially available at present. Nevertheless, some important advances have been achieved in each class of biosensors. 3.1. Monoenzyme Sensors Monoenzyme sensors were the first biosensors to be developed, and are the best known. Here an enzyme is coupled to an optical or electrochemical chemosensor, which selectively detects one of the reaction partners of the substrate, or a reaction product. As early as the 1960s with the first enzyme electrodes, immobilization of the enzyme was a development goal. Although the immobilization technique is crucial to the behavior of the biosensor, it will not be considered in detail here. The situation is basically similar to that in bioreactors, where the aim is to achieve a high surface activity combined with a high durability; accordingly, the immobilization techniques used in biosensors are similar to those for bioreactors.[116-'201 However, it must be said that many of the techniques are still far from giving reproducible results. Many preparative procedures evolved by trial and error, and if a breakthrough could be achieved in immobilization without loss of activity, many of the present disadvantages of biosensors would be overcome. The modification of the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD@) can also be regarded as a type of immobilization.t121. 1221 If the effective molecular mass of NAD@ is increased by reaction with polyethylene glycol (PEG) to give PEG-NAD@, the coenzyme can be immobilized behind a dialysis membrane, so that it can be used repeatedly after a recycling procedure. Chemically preactivated membrane filters for simple and rapid immobilization of enzymes have recently become commercially available (Immunodyne, Gelman Sciences). The simplification of the procedure brought about by them could lead to a breakthrough in extending the storage life of biosensors. If a filter membrane freshly coated with the enzyme could be fitted to the sensor shortly before making a measurement, the cost of the biomaterial would be worthwhile in view of the great advantages of a rapid but selective measurement. 3.1 .I . Electrochemical Biosensors In the past the development of monoenzyme biosensors with different transducers was mainly limited to electro- 530 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 chemical sensors. This situation has now changed to some extent through the development of new optodes and of the technique of surface plasmon resonance. Biosensors with electrochemical transducers are still essentially restricted, owing to the nature of the products from enzymic reactions, to two methods of measurement, namely amperometry and potentiometry . Amperometric Biosensors: The majority of biosensors used in research are of the amperometric type. Table7 gives a short summary, which is by no means exhaustive, of the many different types of biosensors using conventional amperometry. Table 7. Amperometric biosensors. Substrate Enzyme Product(s) Range Refs. detected deh ydrogenase choline oxydase alcohol oxidase alcohol malate formiate choline ethanol formaldehyde formaldehyde dehydrogenase glucose glucose oxidase glutamine glutaminase, glutamate oxidase glycerol glycerol dehydrogenase hypoxanthine xanthine oxidase lactate lactate oxidase oligosaccharides glycoamylase, glucose oxidase phenol polyphenol oxidase inorganic nucleoside phosphorus phosphorylase 10-150mmolL-' NADH ( 5 - 1 0 0 ) ~ 1 0 - ~ m o l L - ' [121,124] H,O, 500 mmolL-' [a] [125] NADH mol L-' [a] [126] H,O, 10 mgL-' [a] I1 141 H,02 0-7gL-I [127-1351 H,O, 0-25 mmolL-' ~1361 NADH, O2 11371 H20, 4 - 1 8 0 ~ 1 0 ~ ~ m o l L - ' [138,139] H,O, 0.1-2.5mmolL-' [140] H20, 1-4011Un0lL-' 11141 quinone - 11251 [a] Only the upper limit is known In amperometric transducers, reaction partners or products of the enzymic reaction are directly reduced or oxidized at the working electrode, and the resulting current is measured. From this, on the basis of the stoichiometry, the quantity of the substrate that has reacted can be determined. As is evident from Table 7, the most commonly used transducers are based on the oxygen/hydrogen peroxide electrodes described in Section 2.1.4, since many enzymic reactions (e.g. those of the oxygenases) involve the consumption or production of oxygen. This consumption of 0, or production of H,O, is measured by an 0, electrode. In this area of development considerable time has been invested in the glucose sensor, which is based on reaction ( 3 ) (3) GOD B-D-glucose + 0, -+ H,O -gluconic acid + H,O, catalyzed by the enzyme glucose oxidase (GOD). In this selective reaction three concentration changes can be and have been used to determine the amount of material reacted: 1) the reduction in concentration of the cosubstrate (reduction in O,), 2) the increase in H,O, concentration, or 3) the concentration of the He ions generated by the disso- ciation of the gluconic acid. Greater progress has been made in the area of in-vitro glucose measurements than in any other, which is not surprising in view of the large amount of research effort on this topic (about half of all the papers on biosensors are concerned with glucose measurements). Despite this, however, an implantable glucose sensor, which would be desirable in medical technology, is still not within sight. Implants need to have a lifetime of several years, because if it is shorter the added trauma for the patient as a result of more frequent operations is unacceptable. Up to now the lifetime of the enzyme GOD in synthetic glucose solutions has been at best about 100 days.['231 Among the problems which hinder applications are those arising from the nature of the cosubstrate (the quantity of 0, available for reaction ( 3 ) limit the measurement range), from product inhibition, from the possibility of the enzyme being attacked by proteases, and from diffusion difficulties caused by encapsulation of the implant. Other types of amperometric biosensors are those based on the detection of a coenzyme. Well over 100 enzymic reactions are known in which nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD@) functions as a coenzyme. The direct electrochemical reduction of NAD@ or oxidation of the reduced form NADH have both been successfully demonstrated,['42' 1431 but owing to the very large overvoltage that must be applied (+ 0.7 to + 1.0 V vs. Ag/AgCl), the determination of both species is instead carried out with electron carriers (mediators), which work on the principle shown in Figure 18.[144-1471 A similar situation exists for the coenzyme N A D P ~ . The compounds used as mediators are reversible redox systems with high exchange current densities, often redox dyes such as methylene blue or thionine, or sometimes modified ferrocenes or hexacyanoferrates. The advantages of such a mediator are well-known: it reacts with the coenzyme NAD@ in a homogeneous solution without significant inhibition by kinetic factors, the mediator itself is electrochemically reversible, and it reacts at the electrode at a significantly lower potential than NAD@. Because of the lower working potential fewer interfering effects from other electrolyzable substances in the sample are expected. Ferrocenes have also been used to effect the direct transfer of electrons between the enzyme and the electrode. A modified ferrocene serves as mediator between immobilized glucose oxidase and a graphite e l e c t r ~ d e . ~ ' ~ ~ ~ This glucose sensor, developed at the Cranfield Institute of Technology (UK), is unaffected by O,, as the ferrocene replaces oxygen as the cosubstrate. The sensor can therefore also be used in anaerobic media (e.g. in fermenters). In general the immobi- Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 531 lization of mediators presents difficulties. An immobilization effective enough to prevent loss of the mediator from the transducer with time is usually accompanied by severe deactivation of that mediator. Potentiometric Biosensors: Biosensors with potentiometric transducers can be used in any situation where protons are either generated or removed in the course of the enzymic reaction. Most types are based on a pH electrode, as can be seen from Table 8, which gives a short summary of potentiometric biosensors. A pH measurement is an alternative way of following the glucose conversion reaction (eq. (3)) already described under amperometric biosensors. In this case the change in pH caused by the formation of gluconic acid is measured. Fats may be determined by measuring the change in pH caused by the formation of fatty acids, as listed in Table 8. Though still at the development this method seems to offer great promise, especially in view of the numerous potential applications in food technology. Recently stable lipases which even allow the determination of fats in organic solutions have been isolated. The performance of all biosensors that work by means of a pH measurement is greatly affected by the buffer capacity of the sample solution. A lipophilic layer or membrane between the reaction zone and the buffer system decreases this dependence. Whereas with amperometric sensors, which consume some of the substance being determined during the course of the measurement, deposits of proteins formed on their surface attenuate the signal, with potentiometric sensors only the response time and not the magnitude of the signal is affected, since here the measurement does not consume the substance. This can be a crucial factor in the case of implants. The conversion of aspartam by the enzyme L-aspartase is of interest in connection with the production and use of artificial sweeteners. The NH, generated in the reaction can be determined by the well-known NH, gas electrode. This type of electrode has also been used successfully for some time to determine urea in urine by means of the enzyme urease. The enzymic hydrolysis of urea [reaction (4)], like the oxidation of glucose, allows the use of various chemosensors as transducer. CO(NH,), + 2 H,O 2 NHY + C0:O (4) In aqueous solution the reaction products give the pHdependent equilibria (5) and (6), which provide further spe- NHF + OHe ZII? NH,+H,O (5) C O i e + H @ ZII? HCOF z=? C O , + H , O (6) He -Ha cies for which transducers are available. Potentiometric ISEs are available for two of the reaction products, the ammonium and carbonate ions. Furthermore, the gases NH, and CO, which may be produced depending on the pH in the reaction zone can be detected by means of the appropriate gas electrodes mentioned above.[1601 A urea sensor as described here can be made in the form of a simple triple-membrane configuration as shown in Figure 19. Conductometry is another electrochemical transducer principle which can be applied to biosensors, since the progress of an enzymic reaction can also be measured by the change in the resistivity of the solution. However, as well as lacking selectivity, this method suffers from the fundamental difficulty that only the total resistivity can be measured and the change in resistivity is caused not only by the reaction, but also by the introduction of an ion-containing medium. A difference method has been proposed by Wut~on.['~'' Con- 532 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 ductometric biosensors for urea and for D-amino acids are described by Rechnitz et a1.['621 3.1.2. Biochips The new microelectronic transducers are becoming increasingly important, as they make it possible to produce one-shot disposable biosensors. This offers a possible solution to the ever-present problems of poor storage properties and short lifetimes of biosensors. Even the problem of sterilization could be solved by sterile sensor elements which are introduced immediately before the measurement. Special mention must be made here of ion-selective field effect transistors (ISFETs), whose small size, particularly, warrants their application as transducers in biosensors, as this factor is of great importance for catheter sensors in medical technology. Enzyme-modified ISFETs, known as ENFETs, consist in many cases of pH-sensitive ISFETs with an enzyme immobilized on their surface; this catalyzes the reaction of a substrate which generates or removes protons. Examples of the use of ENFETs are the determination of glucose)'52* 1631 urea, and penicillins,\" 5 8 * 1651 in which the appropriate enzymes were immobilized on the pH-sensitive surface of the ISFET with glutaraldehyde and bovine serum albumin, or in membranes. To compensate for errors caused by temperature fluctuations or by pH changes from effects other than the enzymic reaction, a differential measurement can be performed with two pH-ISFETs, one coated with the enzyme and one bare, as described in the first German patent for a b i o ~ h i p . [ ' ~ ~ ] The determination of triglycerides has also been performed by a differential measurement, with lipase immobilized in a polyvinylpyrrolidone membrane on the pH-sensitive surface of a pH-ISFET.['661 Table 9 gives a summary of the ENFETs that have been reported. 3.1.3. Optical Transducers In addition to the well-proven electrochemical transducers, optical sensors have recently been exploited to an increasing extent for substrate recognition by enzymic reactions, since fiber-optic spectrophotometers and fluorimeters are now commercially available. The way in which these optical biosensors function will be described here with the help of a few examples. Wolfbeis and T r e f f n ~ k \" ~ ~ ~ have developed a biosensor for glucose determination using the reaction described in Eq. ( 3 ) ; this sensor contains as its transducer an oxygen optode which has already been described in Section 2.3. The glucose oxidase was bound to a nylon membrane by activated carboxyl groups (Immunodyne) and the membrane was attached to the surface of the optode. Another approach of Wolfbeis et al.['68] is based on the intrinsic fluorescence of the enzyme concerned. Enzymes with FAD (flavine adenine dinucleotide) as prosthetic group change their fluorescence properties during the reaction with the substrate, because flavoproteins have different properties in their oxidized and reduced states. This change can be measured with optical fibers that have the enzyme held at their ends by a dialysis membrane. Experiments have been carried out on this system with glucose oxidase, lactate monooxygenase and cholesterol oxidase as enzymes. An optical biosensor has been developed for controlling the biotechnological manufacture of penicillin. This sensor monitors the change in pH caused by the enzymic conversion of penicillin to penicillic acid; the measurement can be performed either electrochemically or optically.['691 For the latter the enzyme penicillinase was immobilized in a polymer together with a pH-indicator, as described in Section 2.3 for pH-optodes. Urea can be determined by an analogous meth- These examples of optical sensors, which are summarized in Table 10, clearly illustrate that, like electrochemical biosensors, nearly all optical sensors depend on just a few basic principles, such as 1 ) the measurement of oxygen concentration by the fluorescence quenching of a dye (transducer: 0, optodes), 2 ) pH-measurements (transducers: pH optodes), and 3) the determination of NADH fluorescence using a bifurcated light-guide. Combining these measurement principles with different enzymes results in biosensors similar to those based on electrochemical transducers. There are no great differences in performance between them. Figure 20 shows the basic design features of an optical biosensor. od.\" 701 3.1.4. Mass-Sensitive Transducers A class of biosensors that have hitherto not been widely used are those based on piezoelectric crystals or surface acoustic wave (SAW) These provide a simple means of detecting changes in mass through the alteration in the resonance frequency of a crystal. If such a transducer is covered with a selectively adsorbing surface or absorbing film, the concentration of the ab- or adsorbed substance can be determined from the change in resonance frequency. Using a 9 MHz piezoelectric quartz crystal, for example, it is theoretically possible to measure mass changes as small as lo-' g. Guilbault et al. describe sensors based on piezoelectric crystals coated with enzymes. The selectivity is provided by the formation of an enzyme-substrate complex, and the sensitivity is given by the stoichiometric mass increase given by the equation of the reaction. With immobilized formaldehyde dehydrogenase,[' \"1 atmospheric formaldehyde concentrations in the range from 1 to 100 ppm can be detected, with choline esterase,\" 731 pesticides in the ppb range. Measurements in liquid media cause greater problems and are controversial. To maintain the theoretical sensitivity described in Equation (d), piezoelectric sensors should be subjected to a reproducible drying step in air before use. 3.2. Multienzyme Sensors The repeated use of expensive coenzymes is possible if they are regenerated by a second enzyme. The recycling method described by Schepers et al.\" 7 4 1 could be applied to many analytes. The fluorescence of the reduced coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) is measured in a flow-through cell using a fiber-optic device. The molecular mass of the NAD@ is increased by binding it onto polyethyleneglycol in order to trap it within the cell, together with an enzyme such as alcohol dehydrogenase, behind a dialysis membrane. When a second enzyme, e.g. lactate dehydrogenase, is also included behind this membrane, it becomes possible to regenerate the NADH by adding pyruvate. However, the need to add this reagent means that the device is no longer a sensor in the narrow sense, because a sensor should work without addition of reagents. Several enzymes, or even a whole enzyme series, could be necessary in cases where a single enzymic reaction step does not yield a substance which can be detected by a transducer.[' 14, 3.3. Biosensors Based on Tissue Sections or Cell Cultures Not only isolated enzymes but also entire groups of intact cells can be used as the basis for biosensors. Compared with the isolated enzymes, these often have the advantage of being active for longer periods, as the enzymes are kept in their natural environment. In this case an additional immobilization step for the coenzymes or cofactors is not necessary. However, such cell groups are often less selective, as they contain mixtures of enzymes. Arnold and R e ~ h n i t z \" ~ ~ ] published a table listing biosensors based on tissues and related materials. NH, or 0, chemosensors are often used as transducers. The principle of these devices will be explained by taking as an example a biosensor for hydrogen peroxide. As bovine liver contains relatively high concentrations of the enzyme catalase, a section of fresh tissue only 0.1 mm thick is immobilized with nylon mesh on the surface of a membrane-covered 0, electrode. The hydrogen peroxide whose concentration is to be determined undergoes enzymic decomposition to oxygen and water, and the oxygen thus produced is measured amperometrically. This sensor is less sensitive to fluctuations in temperature and pH, and has a longer lifetime than a biosensor containing an isolated enzyme.['76] Another device of this kind which is frequently cited is the \"bananatrode\" which has been described by Rechnitz et al.['77] Here a thin slice of banana in front of an 0, sensor is used as a detector for dopamine, which undergoes oxidation by the enzyme polyphenol oxidase present in bananas. The consumption of oxygen is then measured. 3.4. Microbial Biosensors The majority of biosensors based on immobilized microorganisms function with amperometric oxygen sensors as transducers.[' 'I Biosensors for the determination of phosphate, nitrate, nitrite, sulfite, methane, and phenol have recently been described, but none has yet achieved a commercial breakthrough. The determination of phosphate was performed with a sensor based on the microorganism Chlorella vulgaris in immobilized form. An 0, optrode was used to measure the increase in the photocurrent on introducing phosphate. The photocurrent was found to be a function of the phosphate concentration in the range from 8 to 70 mmol L- .I1 791 Karube, Kitagawa et al.\" have developed a microbiological sensor for alcohol using a pH ISFET as a transducer. For this the acetic acid bacterium Gluconobacter suboxydans was immobilized on the ISFET behind a gas-permeable membrane. Ethanol which diffuses in through the membrane is converted to acetic acid by the bacteria. This biosensor can be used for the determination of ethanol in the range from 3 to 70 mmol L-I. 3.5. Immunosensors Antibodies (Ab) and antigens (Ag) (or haptenes) bind specifically and strongly to each other. Techniques for following such reactions in order to determine one of the reac- 534 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 tion partners have up to now relied mainly on labeling one of the immunoreactands. This is the principle used in immunoassays, which are now indispensable in biochemical analysis. Immune reactions are subject to the limitations imposed by the law of mass action. In the equilibrium reaction between the free antigen (Ag) and the antibody (Ab) to form the antigen-antibody complex, the equilibrium ratio between the concentrations of the complex and of the free reaction partners is determined by the affinity constant K [Eq. (f)l. In immunoassays quantitative determinations can be carried out by means of competitive binding tests or sandwich tests. In competitive tests labeled antigens are used. If radioactive labeling is used, the procedure is called a radioimmunoassay (RIA). If instead, an enzyme is covalently bound to the antigen (horseradish peroxidase or alkaline phosphatase are often used), the procedure is called enzyme immunoassay (EIA). The labeled antigen and the antigen to be assayed compete for the binding of the immobilized antibody, and the concentration of the antigen can be determined by comparison with a reaction of a known concentration of the pure antigen. Sandwich tests are carried out with labeled antibodies. When radioactive labeling is used the measurement is described as an immunoradiometric assay (IRMA), whereas if the antibody is attached to an enzyme it is called an enzyme-linked immunosorption assay (ELISA). The antigen which is to be determined binds to an antibody which is immobilized on a support, and is quantitatively determined by means of a second labeled antibody. Both systems have important disadvantages. Purified antibodies and antigens are required. The calibration curves are only linear over a small concentration range. With radioactive labeling there are problems of waste management. Although an immunoassay is simple to perform, it involves a succession of stages, and often a separation step, requiring several hours of work. In the last few years several immunosensors have been developed in which the immunological reaction is measured directly. These sensors use electrochemical, optical, or piezoelectric transducers or capacitance bridges. It should eventually be possible to perform the most important types of immunochemical analysis with disposable sensors.[' ' I Enzyme immunoelectrodes comprise the transducer (electrode), the immune reaction system, and an enzyme indicator and are based on the usual EIA phnciples, except that the product of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction (often H,O,) is detected electrochemically and not by photometry.[182, 1831 Ion-selective membrane electrodes have also been used for the determination of antibodies. The method is described by Rechniiz et al./1841 in which the corresponding antigen is covalently bound to an ionophore of the benzo-crown-ether group and immobilized in a PVC membrane to give an electrode sensitive to alkali metal ions. The change in the potential of the electrode which occurs on adding the appropriate antibody is caused by the alteration of the properties of the ionophore when the antibody binds to the antigen-ionophore complex. Another type of immunosensor is based on the antigen-induced change in the potential of a chemically modified semiconductor surface (TiO,), the mechanism of which is still not understood.t1851 Based on early fundamental studies on potentiometric immunosensors during the period 1978 - 89, the interdisciplinary research center for chemoand biosensors at the Westfaelische Wilhelms University (FRG) has just elucidated the general mechanism of immunologically-induced changes in electrode potential.\" 86* 1871 There are in principle many different antibodies for a particular antigen or haptene, so that a large variety of organic molecules can be selectively determined. If the remaining problems of standardization and storage life can be solved, this analytical technique should revolutionize at least molecular analysis, since a potentiometric immunoassay is fast, sensitive, and extremely economic. Immunosensors based on mass-sensitive transducers (piezoelectric crystals and SAW devices) exploit the mass increase which results from the immune reaction.\" 881 Here again measurements in liquids present problems. Immune reactions at surfaces also alter certain optical properties, on which optical sensors are based. One optical effect that can be used to determine antigens with immobilized antibodies is the change the resonance angle in surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy[' 891 when immunocomplexation forms a film on a silicon or metal oxide base layer. Others are the change in light scattering from a coated glass surface when an immunocomplex is formed,\"901 and changes in the reflection and absorption of a light beam (evanescent wave te~hnique).['~'] A strict definition classifies immunosensors not as true sensors, but as dosimeters, because the immune reactions are not reversible. Under suitable conditions (e.g. by altering the pH) it is possible to break down the biocomplex to recover the antibody and the antigen, allowing a quasi-continuous measurement sequence.['86, l E 7 1 A continuously operating type of immunosensor based on competitive reactions has been developed ; here the analyte and a heterobifunctional complex compete for binding sites on an immobilized antibody!'921 Nonspecific binding is a difficulty which limits the sensitivity of immunosensors in many applications. This problem has been investigated in detail by Cullen and L ~ w e . ~ ' ~ ~ ] 3.6. Biosensors Based on Receptors A very promising approach is the development of biosensors in which individual receptors or receptor structures from living organisms are immobilized on transducers.\" 94] The advantages of receptors over enzymes, for example, lie in very high sensitivities and short response times. It is known, for example, that some marine species can recognize substances at concentrations as low as mol L-' , However, the problems of isolating receptor molecules and of their instability when immobilized are still so great, that this idea must be regarded at present as an interesting approach with potential for future developments. A sensor for the determination of glucose which is based on a receptor protein has been developed by Schultz and Meadows.\"951 This makes use of the competition between glucose and a glucose analogue, a dextran labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC-dextran), for binding sites on Angew. Chem. Int . Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 514-539 535 the glucose receptor protein concanavalin A labeled with rhodamine (Rh-Con A). FITC-dextran and Rh-Con A are sealed in a length of dialysis tube at the end of a bifurcated light guide with a diameter of 100 pm (Fig. 21). Light of a suitable wavelength excites FITC, which fluoresces. If the FITC is connected via the dextran to the Rh-Con A, the energy absorbed by the FITC is transmitted to the rhodamine, which then also fluoresces. If glucose diffuses through the dialysis membrane into the measuring cell, the dextran is partly displaced from its binding sites by the glucose and the measured FITC fluorescence increases, because less energy is transferred from FITC to rhodamine. From increase in fluorescence intensity the glucose concentration can be determined. 3.7. Applications of Biosensors An important technological application of biosensors is the control of fermentation processes. Here it is desirable to measure continuously as far as possible, to ensure optimization of the fermentation process and to minimize the consumption of expensive nutrients. It is particularly important to monitor glucose, ethanol, lactate, cephalosphorins and penicillins. Another area in which biosensors are used, is food technology and food testing. Of interest is the glucose content of wine and fruit drinks,[1961 lactate production during milk processing,[1971 and the freshness of fish, which is measured with a hypoxanthin sensor.[19s1 An area of growing importance is monitoring the quality of water and effluents. Most of the sensors developed so far are based on the combination of microorganisms and transducers. Some sensors serve to determine individual constituents of water, such as phosphate, nitrite, and nitrate,\" '] while others measure composite parameters through their inhibiting effects on microorganisms or enzymes. However, the latter are more like simple early warning systems (screening) than true sensors, as an alarm indication needs to be followed by a more precise analysis. Moreover, these systems work irreversibly. Such warning systems are used in particular to monitor pesticide contents or concentrations of heavy metal ions and the inhibition of the microorganisms is mea- sured by the reduction in CO, production.['991 To obtain a quantity which can be related to the biological oxygen demand (BOD), changes in the respiratory rate of E-ichosporon cutaneum are measured with an oxygen electrode.[z00] A sensor of this type is already in routine operation in Japan. A final example of a field in which biosensors are finding application is medical technology. The most frequently performed analyses are of glucose and lactate, and it is therefore in this area that the most intensive research is being undertaken. The desirability of in-vivo measurements, for example, to control an insulin pump, is giving impetus to the development of miniaturized biosensors. Here of utmost importance is the requirement that the reagents are biocompatible and physiologically harmless. Already a few biosensors, based on electrochemical or optical transducers or on piezoelectric crystal measurements in the gas phase, are commercially available. Analytical instruments have been developed to avoid some problems of biosensors. Here pretreatment of the samples can prolong the life of the sensor. The early commercially available analytical instruments for medical technology are usually based on an oxygen or hydrogen peroxide electrode as a transducer, with an oxidase as the biochemical component. They permit analyses on whole blood for glucose content in the range from 0 to 30 mmolL-' or lactate content from 0 to 15 mmol L-l. A BOD-measuring instrument based on the BOD sensor described earlier is now also available. A list of commercially available analytical instruments based on biosensors can be found in the article by Owen.[201] 4. Outlook This article aimed to give a concise overview of the present state of development of chemical sensors that are already or might become important for chemical, medical, and environmental applications. However it does not claim to be exhaustive. In the field of biosensors alone there are, according to recent CAS on-line searches, over 3000 publications and over 300 patents, although there are at present barely a dozen types of commercially available sensors, of which more than a half are for glucose. One of the main reasons for this striking imbalance with regard to marketing success may be found in the low degree of interdisciplinary cooperation among scientists. Many of the publications go no further than demonstrating a reproducible effect observed for a single chemical substance. Often there is no investigation into the effects of interfering substances, nor an answer to the central analytical question: how accurately and reliably does the sensor measure the substance for which one is analyzing? Reports which only give information on reproducibility, measured on pure synthetic samples containing no interfering constituents, should be avoided in view of the present wealth of knowledge about sources of systematic errors. To an analytical chemist a report on the development of a new analytical method which tells one nothing about matrix effects, and therefore about its absolute accuracy (defined as coincidence with the true content in the sample) is like a report on a synthetic method for a new compound which was identified by elemental analysis alone (i.e. without 536 Angew. Chem. in[ . Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 Confirmation by universally recognized and indeed prescribed methods of modern structural analysis). In the field of chemosensor development, as in that of ultra-trace analysis, there is a growing tendency to play down the importance of interfering effects. The disproportionately large amount of research effort devoted to the microelectronic aspects of modern transducers is pointless if not accompanied by a deeper understanding of the mechanisms by which substances are specifically recognized. The fundamental mechanisms of the molecular interactions taking place in these devices cannot be planned and optimized on purely engineering considerations; they depend on natural laws that one can use but cannot alter! In summary it may be concluded that the development of sensors will advances further simply because there is a strong demand for it. The more research effort concentrated on the central problem of a selective molecular recognition, the quicker such advances will be achieved. Our present knowledge of mechanisms indicates that it is necessary to involve chemists from a wide variety of disciplines: theoretical, inorganic, organic, biochemical, analytical, and physico-chemical. The development of new sensors can only progress by an interdisciplinary approach, which must also include the collaboration of biologists, physicists, and medical scientists. At this stage improvement in the transducer properties has a lower priority than improvement in the selectivity of chemosensors and the lifetime of biosensors. The transducers now available have adequate stability and sensitivity, and their full exploitation is prevented only by the laws of physicalchemistry or by shortcomings in the properties of the sensor elements. The basic ideas ofthe novel approach to the theory of ion-selective electrodes described here were developed in 1975 by K. Cammann in his Ph.D. thesis. He would like to thank his academic teachers, Prof. Dr. G. Ertl and Prof. Dr. H . Gerischer, for many discussions and helpful suggestions. During a Humboldt-Fellowship, for which the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation is sincerely thanked, Prof. Dr. S. L. Xie could verifv this far-reaching theory completely by means of the most modern experimental equipment. The basic research in this field during recent years was generously funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) and the Fonds der Chemischen Industrie, which we have much appreciated. Grateful acknowledgement is also given to the Bundesministerium fur Forschung und Technologie (BMFT) for its generous financial help to research in the field of biosensors at Miinster. Last but not least, we owe a debt of gratitude to the State of Nordrhein- Westfalen, which is establishing a research institute for chemical sensors and biosensors (attached to the University of Miinster) in cooperation with the FraunhoferManagement-Gesellschaft (FhM) . The aim of this interdisciplinary institute is to support applied research on all aspects of chemical sensing, including the development of complete measurement systems and monitoring equipment.

Except for employing asymmetric rotor core to shift the reluctance axis, MFS effect can also be utilized by using asymmetric PM configuration as it can adjust the relative position between PM field and reluctance axes. Various AIPM machine rotor topologies with asymmetric PMs and symmetrical rotor cores have been proposed in literature. The AIPM machine rotor topology with asymmetric PM configuration was firstly introduced by using inset PMs in [43], Fig. 10 (a), as the axis of PM field can be easily shifted by asymmetric PM position. Compared with an SPM machine, the AIPM machine with shifted inset PM position in [43]-[45] shows increased torque density, improved CPSR, and reduced losses. A similar topology with hybrid pole configurations, i.e. adjacent poles using asymmetric inset PMs and symmetrical V-shape PMs alternatively, has been proposed and employed in an IPM machine in [46] and [47] as shown in Fig. 10 (b). The hybrid pole AIPM machine shows torque enhancement and torque ripple reduction compared with a V-shape IPM benchmark, although the torque density is slightly smaller than the symmetrical inset IPM benchmark. Besides, compared with IPM machines whose PMs are buried inside the rotor core, the AIPM machine with inset PMs may require mechanical retaining such as rotor sleeve for high speed operation.

The lower the permeability of the rubber the more advantageous it is to use a thin test piece. It is essential that the means of clamping the test piece in the cell is such that there is no leakage of gas. After the cell and test piece have been assembled and the high pressure side filled with gas at the test pressure, the increase in pressure on the low pressure side is measured as a function of time. The standard suggests a conditioning period of at least 16 h to reach steady state conditions unless an approximate value of the diffusion coefficient is known, when the minimum conditioning time can be estimated from: t = 2D where: d = test piece thickness, and D = diffusion coefficient. In the steady state, a plot of pressure change against time should be linear. Any departure from linearity in the direction of increasing slope with time indicates that the steady state has not been reached. Leakage around the edges of the test piece will only result in an unexpectedly high rate of Permeability 353 pressure rise. Any tendency for the slope to decrease with time is an indication of a leak from the low pressure side. When a manometer system is used to measure pressure, the reservoir height is adjusted to bring the liquid level above a datum mark with the by pass valve open so that the pressure in the low pressure side is atmospheric. The bypass valve is then closed. As the gas diffuses through the test piece the increase in pressure causes the liquid level to fall and as the meniscus passes the datum line a clock is started (i.e. at zero time). The reservoir is then raised to bring the meniscus above the datum line and both time and the manometer reading are noted when again the meniscus passes the datum line. This process is repeated to give a series of readings. In this way the pressure reading (manometer reading) is always taken at constant volume of the low pressure side of the cell. The apparatus and procedure described require great care in setting up and in operation. The effort is eased considerably if an automatic pressure measuring device operating at effectively constant volume is used instead of the manometer^. Probably, all apparatus now has some form of pressure transducer. Improvements as regards accuracy and sensitivity can also be obtained by, for example, having a vacuum instead of atmospheric pressure on the low pressure side. Using a capillary, the permeability of the test piece can be calculated from: dhVxdx273x9Slxl0^xp dt AxPxTxlOUOQ where: dh/dt = rate of manometer rise (m/s), V = effective volume of low pressure side of the cell (m), d = test piece thickness (m), p = density of manometer liquid (Mg/m^), A = effective test piece area (m^), P = pressure difference across the test piece (Pa) and T = test temperature (K). 273 and 101300 are the standard temperature and pressure respectively.

It was shown that both the maximum temperature and the high-temperature region increase along with the layer number, and the temperature gradient also shows a downward trend. This is expected because the heat dissipation condition becomes poorer with the increase in layers. When the workpiece height is relatively low, the heat is prone to dissipation through the substrate plate (seen in Fig. 6 (a), (b) and (c)), and as a consequence the high-temperature area on the substrate plate becomes larger [25\u201327].

Quasi-static loading process of spur gear-pair.", "texts": [ " The model presented in [65] is suitable for any length and shape of profile modification, but the amount of modification should be equal to the teeth deflection at the inner point of contact, in such a way that the effective start of contact is shifted to the theoretical location. However, as the teeth deflection depends on the transmitted load, such adjusted amount of modification is not possible when gears operate under non-nominal load conditions, or under variable load. In this paper, the analytic model of the MS, LSR, and QSTE presented in [65] is extended to consider non-nominal loads, which will also be valid for non-adjusted amount of modification. Fig. 1 depicts the quasi-static loading process of the spur tooth-pairs. It is assumed that output gear is fixed -i.e., points 1, 2, 3, and 4 in Fig. 1 do not move-, while the input gear rotates clockwise. If the gear is unloaded, the input gear can rotate up to position ( a ), corresponding to the tooth-pair j = 1 being in contact at point a 1 on the pressure line. At this position, the tooth-pair j = 0 is not in contact. As the load increases, due to the elastic deflections of the teeth, the input gear rotates and the input-gear tooth j = 0 approaches the corresponding mating tooth. This occurs up to position ( b ), in which tooth-pair j = 0 contacts at point i , outside the pressure line", " 2 , the \u03be parameters corresponding to different tooth pairs in simultaneous contact are related by: \u03be( i + j ) = \u03be( i ) + j (2) while the difference between the \u03be parameters corresponding to the theoretical inner and outer points of contact, \u03be inn and \u03be o respectively, is equal to the theoretical contact ratio, \u03b5\u03b1: \u03beo = \u03beinn + \u03b5 \u03b1 (3) Accordingly, the theoretical contact interval is described by \u03be inn \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03be o . But the teeth deflections under load induces an earlier start of contact and a delayed end of contact, resulting in a slightly longer effective contact interval -also named extended contact interval-, in which three different sub-intervals can be distinguished: premature contact ( \u03bemin \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03be inn ), theoretical contact ( \u03be inn \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03be o ), and delayed contact ( \u03be o \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03bemax ). The premature contact interval can be described from Fig. 1 . If assumed the total load induces a rotation on the input gear just to reach the position ( b ) -in such a way that positions ( b ) and ( c ) are coincident-, the point i (denoted by I for this specific case in [50 , 51] ) corresponds to the mesh-in impact point, the effective inner point of contact is located at point b 0 , and the premature contact interval is represented by interval b 0 e . As described in [64 , 65] , the limits of the extended contact interval, \u03bemin and \u03bemax , can be computed from: \u03bemin = \u03beinn \u2212 2 \u03c0 z 1 \u221a r b2 \u03d5 2 ( \u03beinn ) r b1 C p\u2212inn (4a) \u03bemax = \u03beo + 2 \u03c0 z 1 \u221a r b2 \u03d5 2 ( \u03beo ) r b1 C p\u2212o (4b) where \u03d52 ( \u03be ) is the QSTE -which is a function of \u03be - and C p \u2212 inn and C p \u2212 o can be computed as described in [64 , 65] ", " For any other SMS approach, numerical results may be slightly different, but the shape of the curves presented herein will be identical, and conclusions perfectly valid. As proved in [11 , 64 , 65] , the delay of the driven tooth respect to the driving tooth is equal for all the tooth pairs in simultaneous contact. This delay is different at any contact position, and therefore the LTE is not uniform along the meshing cycle; but for a given contact position, the delay is the same for all the tooth pairs in contact. In Fig. 1 , the length of the interval a 0 b 0 is equal to the length of the interval a 1 b 1 , the length of the interval b 0 c 0 is equal to the length of the interval b 1 c 1 , etc. Nevertheless, the above does not allow to conclude that the deflection is equal for all the pairs in contact. In fact, inside the additional contact intervals, part of the delay is covered to approach the driving tooth to the mating tooth to contact it. As shown in Fig. 1 , the delay interval (namely, the interval in the pressure line corresponding to the angle of delay) is represented by a 1 c 1 , whose length is equal to that of interval a 0 c 0 , which represents the delay interval as well. On the contrary, the deflection of tooth-pair j = 0 is represented by the interval b 0 c 0 , while the deflection of tooth-pair j = 1 is represented by the interval a 1 c 1 , which is longer. The difference between them is the approach distance, which is represented by interval a 0 b 0 in Fig. 1 . The approach distance \u03b4G can be expressed as [65] : \u03b4G ( \u03be ) = ( 2 \u03c0 z 1 )2 C p\u2212inn r b1 ( \u03beinn \u2212 \u03be ) 2 for \u03bemin \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03beinn \u03b4G ( \u03be ) = 0 for \u03beinn \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03beo \u03b4G ( \u03be ) = ( 2 \u03c0 z 1 )2 C p\u2212o r b1 ( \u03be \u2212 \u03beo ) 2 for \u03beo \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03bemax (7) Profile reliefs induce a new no-deflection sub-interval of the interval of delay. The profile modification can be expressed as [65] : \u03b4R ( \u03be ) = R \u2212inn \u03b4R \u2212inn ( \u03be ) for \u03beinn \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03beinn + \u03ber\u2212inn \u03b4R ( \u03be ) = 0 for \u03beinn + \u03ber\u2212inn \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03beo \u2212 \u03ber\u2212o \u03b4R ( \u03be ) = R \u2212o \u03b4R \u2212o ( \u03be ) for \u03beo \u2212 \u03ber\u2212o \u2264 \u03be \u2264 \u03beo (8) where R \u2212 inn and R \u2212 o are the amount of modification at the driven and driving tooth tips (or driving and driven tooth roots), respectively, \u03b4R \u2212 inn ( \u03be ) and \u03b4R \u2212 o ( \u03be ) the unitary functions describing the shape of modifications, and \u03be r \u2212 inn and \u03be r \u2212 o the lengths of modification", " For usual reliefs, as linear or parabolic, \u03b4R \u2212 inn ( \u03be ) and \u03b4R \u2212 o ( \u03be ) are expressed as: \u03b4R \u2212inn ( \u03be ) = ( 1 \u2212 \u03be \u2212 \u03beinn \u03ber\u2212inn )n (9a) \u03b4R \u2212o ( \u03be ) = ( 1 \u2212 \u03beo \u2212 \u03be \u03ber\u2212o )n (9b) with n = 1 for linear relief and n = 2 for parabolic relief. Finally, in order to ensure at least one tooth pair in contact at points of the unmodified involute profile at any contact position, the lengths of modification should verify: \u03b5 \u03b1 \u2212 ( \u03ber\u2212inn + \u03ber\u2212o ) \u2265 1 (10) The QSTE is the difference between the theoretical rotation of the driven gear and the actual one, for a given rotation of the input gear. In Fig. 1 , the actual position of the tooth j = 1 of the driven gear is described by point 3, while the theoretical position would correspond to contact at point c 1 , and therefore the output-gear tooth would be located at position described by point 3 \u2032 . The QSTE is represented by angle \u03d52 in Fig. 1 .

The curve in Fig. 3(f) shows the back EMF of a single shorted turn located in slot A1, the back EMF of a single shorted turn located in slot B5, and the back EMF of two shorted turns located in slot A2. It can be observed that the back EMF is proportional to the number of turns shorted and its profile is associated with the fault location.

The other two methods described in this chapter for measuring the tooth thickness of a gear are not subject to these objections. 196 Measurement of Tooth Thickness By measuring over several teeth, as shown in Figure 8.4, it is possible to make the measurement using the parallel faces of the caliper jaws, instead of the tips. This procedure is known as span measurement. An ordinary caliper can be used, without the adjustable stop of the gear-tooth caliper. We measure the length AA' over N' teeth, and from this measured length S, it is possible to calculate the tooth thickness ts of each tooth. Since line AA'is normal to the tooth profiles at A and at A', the line must touch the base circle at some point E. The involutes through A and A' meet the base circle at B and B', and we know that AE and A'E are equal to arc BE and arc B'E", "lS) In order to find the tooth thickness ts of a gear, we measure the length S, and ts is then found from Equation (S.lS), - (N'-ll1rm - Nm inv ~ cos ~s s S (S. 19) We have pointed already that, in the span measurement, the contact between the gear teeth and the caliper jaws takes place on the flat faces of the jaws.

In addition, there is no need for exact symmetry in the span measurement. If the caliper in Figure 8.4 is held so that the lengths AE and A'E are not qui te equal, there is no change in the measured length S. Number of Teeth in the Span We have not yet considered the number N' of teeth over which the span measurement should be made. Ideally, the caliper jaws should touch the tooth faces near the middle of their profiles.

Choices for compression testing an engine mount", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "If our knowledge of the properties and behaviour of rubbers, and hence our design rules, were such that we could predict the performance of the product accurately from tests on laboratory test pieces, then perhaps product testing would be rarely needed. The serious problem of the changes which the manufacturing process introduces can be overcome by obtaining test pieces from the product as discussed in chapter 4. However, the fact is that our understanding of the properties of rubber is simply not good enough to make performance predictions reliably in a great many cases, even if the test pieces come from the product. Hence, there will often be need to test the whole product to be sure that it will perform satisfactorily.\nIn the case of a new design it can be more expedient, and certainly effective, to subject prototypes to real service rather than to develop simulation tests. However, there are many cases when this is simply not sensible for time, cost or safety reasons. So, when real service trials have to be ruled out and prediction from laboratory material tests cannot be relied upon then there must be whole product testing.\nIt can be extremely difficult and/or expensive to devise tests to simulate service adequately and the justification for investment will be in proportion to the importance of the product in risk and/or sales terms. There is clearly much skill in designing rigs and test schedules which maximise information gained at minimum cost. In practice, there is danger of spending very large amounts and still not getting the simulation accurate enough, but most commonly the pressure is to under design the apparatus and to curtail the test programme to cut costs. By far the most difficult factor is when assessing durability and there are a number of degradative agents and some form of acceleration is required to reduce the time scale.\nThe same principle applies to quality control testing, but here there is much greater probability that the experience gained from proving the product initially will allow the quality of subsequent production to be reliably judged on the basis of tests on test pieces or the product test procedure can be simplified.\nSometimes a product test will give more valuable assessment of quahty for the same testing cost as needed for test pieces. This would be true, for example, for compression testing of a simple engine mounting (Figure 2.1) because the cost of moulding test pieces would be little different from the value of the mounting and the testing costs would be equal. It would be pretty pointless to go to the trouble of cutting test pieces from the mounting. When the value of the product is high, it is again a matter of judging whether control on test pieces gives sufficient confidence to reject the costly", "General considerations 25\nalternative of product tests. In this situation, non-destructive tests become particularly attractive.\nFor both quality control and design or performance evaluation purposes, it is relatively clear when whole product testing is desirable. The question then becomes one of whether it is considered essential and, if so, how sophisticated the experiment should be. This can only be answered, albeit with great difficulty, by weighing the cost against the risks and values involved. It should not of course be forgotten that, although we may not know fully how to make predictions from material tests, for many products experience will have shown what level of material properties will be satisfactory. It would probably be fair to say that in the past the tendency has been to be somewhat frugal with product tests. There now seems to be a trend towards more product tests being specified in standards. Generally, more people want to see evidence of fitness for purpose and CEN, for example, have a policy of producing performance rather than construction/material standards.\nOn first reaction, this would seem to be wholly good in that logically performance tests on the product should give the greatest certainty that it will be satisfactory in service. However, it is extremely difficult and expensive in most cases to devise adequate simulation rigs. The pressures of standardisation are to demand that they are produced quickly and almost inevitably without any obvious source of funding. The most expedient route often has to be taken and rarely are there the resources to properly evaluate and refine the methods decided on.", "The result can be methods which do not adequately fulfill their objectives in properly simulating service or are unnecessarily complex and unworkable within reasonable cost. Reproducability of rigs can be very bad. There is a world of difference between a rig for development purposes in one laboratory and multi laboratory product certification. If new methods are introduced which are ambiguously written or without full interlaboratory comparisons then problems and disputes are likely to follow. It can be concluded that it would be better to rely on material properties than on inadequate or ill-defined product tests but a well designed product test provides the best proof of fitness for purpose.\n1.

(1)\u2013(3) or by any other derived formula proposed by different authors mentioned in this section, gives M = 2", " It is therefore very difficult to make the difference between a real zero and a very small numerical value close to zero in the calculation of the determinants. This drawback is specific to all methods for mobility calculation based on rank calculation of constraint equations in a given position of the mechanism with joint location defined numerically. Symbolic calculation of the rank could overcome these limits if the constraint equations are defined symbolically in a generic position, as it will be presented in this section. The basic kinematic structure of the parallel Cartesian robotic manipulator presented in Fig. 1 is obtained by concatenating three legs denoted by A (0 \u2261 1A-2A-3A-4A-5A), B (0 \u2261 1B -2B -3B -4B -5B) and C (0 \u2261 1C -2C -3C -4C -5C). The first link 0 \u2261 1X of each leg is the fixed platform and the final link is the moving platform 5 \u2261 5X (X = A,B,C). The first joint of each leg is actuated. We denote by d1X and d\u03071X (X = A,B,C) the finite displacements and the velocities of the actuated prismatic joints and by \u03d5iX and \u03d5\u0307iX (i = 2,3,4 and X = A,B,C) the finite displacements and the angular velocities of the passive joints. We note that all revolute joints are passive joints. The closure equations of the parallel Cartesian robotic manipulator presented in Fig. 1 can be established by the condition that the linear (0vH ) and angular (0\u03c9H ) velocity of point H situated on the mobile platform (expressed in the reference system O0x0y0z0 \u2013 see Fig. 2) must be the same in the three legs (H \u2261 HA \u2261 HB \u2261 HC):[ 0vHA 0\u03c9HA ] = [ 0vHB 0\u03c9HB ] = [ 0vHC 0\u03c9HC ] , (7) or [ 0vHA 0\u03c9HA ] \u2212 [ 0vHB 0\u03c9HB ] = [0] (8) and [ 0vHA 0\u03c9HA ] \u2212 [ 0vHC 0\u03c9HC ] = [0].

These loops can be considered as two independent closed loops of the Cartesian robotic manipulator, presented in Fig. 1. By calculating the velocity of point H in the three legs of the parallel robotic manipulator Eqs.

(12) Fig. 2 presents the notations associated with the leg A. Similar notations are used for the legs B and C", " Euler\u2019s formula known in the theory of graphs and proposed by Hochman (1890) to calculate the number of independent closed loops q of a multi-loop mechanism (q = p \u2212 m + 1 = p \u2212 n) must be restricted, in the general case, to the structural independence (in the sense of the theory of graphs). Property 2. Structural independence of q closed loops in a multi-loop mechanism does not involve, in the general case, the kinematic independence of the q closed loops. By using Eq. (6) we get the right value of mobility of the parallel Cartesian robotic manipulator presented in Fig. 1 (M = 12 \u2212 9 = 3). We recall that the rank of the matrices [A1]6\u00d78, [A2]6\u00d78 and [A]12\u00d712 can be calculated numerically or symbolically. The numerical calculation gives to us the instantaneous rank in a given position of the mechanism defined by numerical values of joint variables and geometric parameters. The symbolic calculation gives us the global rank in a nondefined position of the mechanism without indicating numerical values of the joint variables and geometric parameters. We just use the symbolic definition of the matrices as presented in Appendix A", " , q) of the linear sets of kinematic constraint equations of the q loops if the rank of the linear set of kinematic constraint equations of (i + 1)th loop is equal to the dimension of the range of the restriction of Fi+1 to the kernel of F1-2-\u00b7\u00b7\u00b7-i ri+1 = dim(RF(i+1)/KF(1-2-\u00b7\u00b7\u00b7-i) ), i = 1,2, . . . , q \u2212 1. (29) The proof of Eqs. (26) and (27), presented in Appendix B, is obtained by recurrence on the basis of the demonstration presented by Fayet (1995) for q = 2. The proof of Eq. (28) results directly from Eq. (26) by taking into consideration that ri+1 dim(RF(i+1)/KF(1-2-\u00b7\u00b7\u00b7-i) ), i = 1,2, . . . , q \u2212 1. (30) The proof of Eq. (29) results directly from Eqs. (26), (28) and (30). As we have seen, for the parallel Cartesian robotic manipulator presented in Fig. 1, the symbolic calculation of the rank of the matrix (69) with MAPLE\u00ae gives r = rA-B-C = rank(A) = 9. This result can also be obtained by using Eq. (26): r = r1 + q\u22121\u2211 i=1 dim(RF(i+1)/KF(1-2-\u00b7\u00b7\u00b7-i) ) = r1 + dim(RF(2)/KF(1) ) = r1 + dim(KF(1)) \u2212 dim(KF(1) \u2229 KF(2)) = 5 + 7 \u2212 3 = 9, where r1 = 5 is the rank of [A1]6\u00d7N and dim(RF(2)/KF(1) ) = dim(KF(1)) \u2212 dim(KF(1) \u2229 KF(2)) = 7 \u2212 3 = 4 is the dimension of the range of the restriction of F2 to the kernel of F1. The dimension of the kernel of F1 and the dimension of the intersections of the kernels of F1 and F2 are determined by using symbolic calculation with MAPLE\u00ae ", " The rank of [A1]6\u00d78 gives the motion parameter b1 of the first loop (0 \u2261 1A-2A- \u00b7 \u00b7 \u00b7 -5A \u2261 5B - \u00b7 \u00b7 \u00b7 -2B -1B \u2261 0) before the closure of the second loop. The dimension of the range of the restriction of F2 to the kernel of F1 gives the number of independent constraints associated to the second loop by taking into account the closure of the first loop. The value of dim(RF(2)/KF(1) ) = 4 is different from the rank of [A2]6\u00d78 (r2 = rank([A2]6\u00d78 = 5). The parallel Cartesian robotic manipulator presented in Fig. 1 does not obey Eq. (29). For this reason, mobility calculation considering the same motion parameter for the both loops fails. The following interpretation could be given to this result. The rank of [A2]6\u00d78 gives the motion parameter b2 = 5 of the second loop (0 \u2261 1A-2A- \u00b7 \u00b7 \u00b7 -5A \u2261 5C - \u00b7 \u00b7 \u00b7 -2C -1C \u2261 0) before the closure of the first loop. In fact, we have to consider the number of independent constraints associated to the second loop by taking into account the closure of the first loop. We have to take into account the dimension of the range of the restriction of F2 to the kernel of F1 instead of motion parameter b2 = 5", " Only four independent motions (vx, vy, vz,\u03c9z) exists in this case between the extreme elements 1C and 0 (Fig. 5). These velocities form the base of RF(2)/KF(1) . Two other examples of parallel mechanisms with uncoupled translational motions and with decoupled Sch\u00f6nflies motions proposed by the author of this paper (Gogu, 2002) are presented to illustrate the applicability of Eq. (26). Fig. 6 presents a parallel robotic manipulator (Gogu, 2002) with three legs derived from the solution presented in Fig. 1 by eliminating the actuated prismatic joint from the leg C. In this case, leg C has just a guiding role by constraining the mobile platform to a planar motion. This mechanism has p = 11 joints (2 prismatic and 9 revolute joints) and q = 2 independent loops. Each joint has one degree of mobility (fi = 1). The two independent loops have also the same motion parameter b1 = b2 = 5 whichever set of independent loops is chosen. Chebychev\u2013Gr\u00fcbler\u2013Kutzbach\u2019s mobility criteria give M = 11 \u2212 (5 + 5) = 1. This is an erroneous result", " Their i i applicability is limited to the mechanisms that have the rank (r) of the homogeneous linear set of kinematic constraint equations equal to the sum of the motion parameters (bi ) associated with the q structurally independent closed loops (i = 1,2, . . . , q) r = q\u2211 i=1 bi . (31) The mechanisms that do not obey Eqs. (29) or (31) do not fit Chebychev\u2013Gr\u00fcbler\u2013Kutzbach\u2019s criterion for mobility calculation of multi-loop mechanisms presented in Section 2. These mechanisms have nothing \u201cenigmatic\u201d or paradoxical, as the literature considered. They just obey Eq. (26), as the parallel Cartesian robotic manipulator presented in Fig. 1. Paradoxical is the fact that Chebychev\u2013Gr\u00fcbler\u2013Kutzbach\u2019s criterion is used inappropriately for these mechanisms. This can be explained by the lack of more appropriate formulas for quick calculation of mobility of multi-loop mechanisms with a wider applicability. We can conclude that Chebychev\u2013Gr\u00fcbler\u2013Kutzbach\u2019s criterion for mobility calculation of multi-loop mechanisms is restricted to the mechanisms that have the rank (r) of the homogeneous linear set of kinematic constraint equations equal to the sum of the motion parameters (bi) associated with the q structurally independent loops (i = 1,2, " ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0000861_tia.2021.3064779-Figure6-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0000861_tia.2021.3064779-Figure6-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 6.

In the following paragraphs, we establish an analytical model that considers the properties of silicone rubber hyperelastic material, input pressure, bending angle, and tip contact force of the actuator. The geometry and material parameters used in the model are obtained by experimental measurements or calibration. 3.1. Modeling of bending angle As shown in Fig. 3(a), although the extensible upper layer of soft actuator is designed as pleated structures, gaps between adjacent chambers have slight influences on the smoothness of actuator bending deformation. The actuator can still be regarded as a constant curvature bending deformation. The soft actuator appears to have uniform deformation under input pressure. Therefore, to derive the analytical model of the soft actuators with pleated structures, we assume that the actuator chamber structure is accurate, uniform, and the effect of gravity is not considered. Therefore, the bending model shown in Fig. 3(b) can be established. According to the geometric relationship, we can get the following relationship: 0L R (1) 0L L L (2) where \ud835\udefc is the bending angle under input pressure, R is the radius of curvature, L0 is the length of the actuator in the inactive state, L is the axial length of the upper actuator after deformation, and \u0394L is the elongation of the upper actuator. In addition, the relationship between the axial length L of the actuator, the radius of curvature R, and the bending angle \ud835\udefc can be obtained from the arc length calculation formula: 0L R r L r (3) From this, the relationship between the elongation \u0394L and the bending angle \u03b1 is obtained: L r (4) After making a series of further analysis of the bending deformation of the soft actuator, it is not difficult to find that there be a certain corresponding relationship between the input pressure and the elongation \u0394L of the whole actuator", " Case 2: tip contact force experiments: the force gauge were pre-adjusted the direction and position according to different bending angles and fix it on the test platform, as shown in Fig. 11(d).

Extrinsic coordinates identify the position and orientation of devices with respect to a three-dimensional frame attached to the object (see Fig. 10.5(left)). The extrinsic coordinates of a device could be represented, for instance, by its (X,Y,Z) coordinates and by the two angles (\u03b8, \u03c9) determining its orientation.

First Experimental Results For first measurements, metal-foil strain gauges have been chosen. Up to a certain extent, the investigations already gained within this field in the macroworld can be transferred into the microworld. Although alternative methods are being investigated successfully, the use of strain gauges seems is the most widely used approach, because of its good performance in terms of costs, speed and accuracy of measurement. For a cantilever type endeffector (Figure 20), as the one used in our prototype, the theoretical relation between force F applied at a certain point and strain \u03b5 induced in another point, is expressed by Equation (5): \u03b5 = 6Fl Ebh2 .

Concentric tube friction is only just beginning to be studied and has so far been handled using lumped parameter approaches [22], or assuming unidirectional actuation histories [23]. In this article, we investigate a simple Coulomb plus viscous friction model, using assumptions similar to [22] but in a new dynamic context. Third, CTRs exhibit elastic instabilities in which the robot snaps from one configuration to another, rapidly releasing stored strain energy [24], [25], as illustrated in Fig. 1. While usually something to be avoided, it has been shown that snapping can be harnessed beneficially under certain conditions [26]. This event entails a highly dynamic transition between two different static states. While unstable regimes can be predicted [24], [25] and avoided by design [18], [27]\u2013[30], path planning [31], [32], and control [17], [33], the transition behavior itself has never been modeled, and quasi-static models fail to appropriately resolve the instability, as shown in Fig. 2", " In this article, we work out the implications of the concentric tube kinematic constraints in a dynamic context for the first time.

By inverting the container, the transmission rate when the water is in contact with the test piece can also be measured. The transmission rates measured by the various alternative procedures will be different because different vapour pressure gradients across the test piece are being used and, logically, the conditions most relevant to service would be chosen. The alternative to using a dish is to form the material into a bag and this so-called pouch or sachet method is often used for plastics films. The advantages are that a larger surface area is exposed, leaks through the wax seal are eliminated, and the conditions are more similar to packaging applications. It is less attractive for rubbers because they are not often used in that sort of packaging application and an alternative to heat sealing the pouch would be necessary. The procedure whereby the water is placed in the container can be adapted for use with other volatile liquids and a standard method of this type has been published as ISO 6179^^ by TC45. The British standard is identical, pubhshed as BS EN ISO, and there is a similar method in ASTM D814^^ A suitable apparatus is shown in Figure 17.4, consisting of a lightweight aluminium container with a screw-on collar to retain the test piece. The rotating part of the collar applies pressure to the clamp ring through ball bearings so that the test piece is not distorted when the collar is tightened. The two filling valves allow the liquid to be changed during test without disturbing the test piece and this is recommended when a mixture of two or more liquids is used which are not transmitted at the same rate, so changing the properties of the liquid left in the cell. Two procedures are defined in the standard. In both cases the cells, after assembly, are inverted so that the liquid is in contact with the test piece and left for a preliminary exposure of 24 hours, which enables a check to be made for correct sealing. For procedure A, the container is then emptied and re-filled at 24 hour intervals until the weight loss per 24 hours is effectively constant. In procedure B, the weight loss is simply determined without emptying and refilling between weighings. The time periods can be varied for very fast or slow transmission rates, and plotting a graph of transmission rate against time will clearly identify when equilibrium is reached. With some liquids there will be appreciable swelling of the rubber which means that the thickness and permeability will not be constant and this will effect the time to equilibrium. The standard requires that the containers are placed with free passage of air across the surface of the test piece but a very high air velocity could Permeability 359 affect the result, whereas build up of solvent in a confined space could be unpleasant or dangerous. The various gravimetric methods for vapour permeability discussed above are all essentially simple but require great care to achieve good reproducibility, are time consuming, and are not generally sensitive enough to measure very low transmission rates. A considerable number of alternative techniques have been suggested for measuring vapour permeability of plastics, generally with the aim of making the measurement more convenient and increasing sensitivity. For water vapour transmission, carrier gas type commercial apparatus using an infrared sensor is now commonly used.

Unit vectors associated with the contact point.", "texts": [ " We now determine what conditions must be met by the rack parameters, if the rack is to mesh correctly with the pinion. In order to check whether the Law of Gearing is satisfied, we adopt the following procedure. We find a typical position of the contact point between the pinion and the rack, and we draw the common normal through this point. We also draw the perpendicular from the pinion center to the rack reference line, and the point where this line intersects the common normal is labelled P'. The Law of Gearing is satisfied if pI coincides with the pitch point P. Figure 3.1 shows the pinion base circle, and a pair of teeth in contact. The base circle radius is given by Equation (2.20), (3.1) A Pinion Meshed With a Rack 55 and by making use of Equation (2.30), which gives the standard pitch circle radius in terms of the module, we can express the base circle radius in terms of the module and the pressure angle, ~Nm cos 4lS (3.2) Since the module m and the pressure angle 4ls are part of the specification of the pinion, the base circle radius Rb is known, and its value is constant. Any normal to the rack tooth in Figure 3.1 must be perpendicular to the tooth profile, while any normal to the pinion tooth must touch the base circle. Hence, as shown in the diagram, the common normal must be the base circle tangent which is perpendicular to the rack tooth profile, and the contact point must lie on this line. If E is the point where the common normal touches the base circle, the radius CE is parallel to the rack tooth profile, and the length CP' can therefore be found from triangle ECP' , CP' cos 4l~ (3.3) To find the position of the pitch point, we use Equation (1.15), which gives the pitch circle radius of a pinion meshed with an arbitrary rack with pitch p, The rack in Figure 3.1 has a pitch p~, so in this case the pinion pitch circle radius is as follows, Np~ 271\" (3.4) Point P' in Figure 3.1 will coincide with the pitch point if the length CP' is equal to the pitch circle radius Rp' We equate the two expressions given in Equations (3.3 and 3.4), and rearrange the terms to put the condition in the following form., p~ cos 4l~ 271\"Rb N (3.5) 56 Gears in Mesh The base pitch Pb of the pinion is given by Equation (2.22), 211'Rb N (3.6) and the base pitch Pbr of the rack, defined as the distance between adjacent teeth measured along a common normal, can be expressed in terms of the pitch and the pressure angle with the help of Figure 3.2, P~ cos ~~ (3.7) Hence, the condition given by Equation (3.5) implies that the base pi tch of the rack must be equal to that of the pinion, (3.B) When we replace CP' in Equation (3.3) by the pitch circle radius Rp' the equation takes the following form, (3.9) We have shown that if the length CP' is equal to the pitch circle radius, the base pitches of the pinion and the rack must be equal. The converse is also true, as we can prove A Pinion Meshed Wi th a Rack 57 by considering Equations (3.3 - 3.8) in the opposite order. If the base pitches are equal, then CP' is equal to Rp' and the Law of Gearing is satisfied. We have therefore proved that an involute pinion can mesh correctly with any rack whose teeth are straight-sided, provided the two base pitches are equal. The rack does not need to be the same shape as the basic rack. The meshing diagram is shown in Figure 3.3, with the common normal at the contact point passing through the pi tch point P. As always, the line in the rack which touches the pinion pitch circle is the rack pitch line, the common normal at the contact point is the line of action, and the angle between the line of action and the tangent to the pitch circle at P is the operating pressure angle 41 of the gear pair. Since the line of action is perpendicular to the rack tooth profile, it can be seen from the diagram that the operating pressure angle 41 is equal to the rack pressure angle, 41' r (3", "17), we obtain an expression for 8R in terms of the quantities defined at the pitch circle, ~ + inv 4lp - inv 4lR 2Rp Relation Between the Pinion and Rack positions (3.18) In order to obtain a general relation between the posi tions of the pinion and the rack, we consider them initially when the ~ontact point lies exactly at the pitch point, and we then determine a relation between the 60 Gears in Mesh displacements from this position. We proved in Chapter 1 that, at some moment during the meshing cycle, the contact point must coincide with the pitch point, and in Figure 3.4 we show the pinion and rack with the contact point in this position. As before, the x axis in the pinion and the xr axis in the rack each coincide with a tooth center-line, and the fixed ~ and ~ axes have their origin at the pitch point. The angular position of the pinion is specified by the angle fi, measured from line CP counterclockwise to the x axis, and the position of the rack is indicated by the distance ur of the xr axis above the ~ axis. The positions of the pinion and the rack in Figure 3.4 are as follows, fi -~ (3.19) 2Rp 1 (3.20) ur 2\"tpr where tp and tpr are the tooth thicknesses, measured on the pinion pitch circle and the rack pitch line. After the pinion has rotated an angle Ilfi from this position, and the rack has displaced a distance Ilu r , the new positions are given by the following two expressions, fi (3.21) position of the Contact Point 61 (3.22) The plnlon rotation ~$ and the rack displacement ~ur are of course related, and to find this relation we start from Equation (1", "25) Position of the Contact Point When we discussed the condition for correct meshing of a pinion and rack, at the beginning of this chapter, we showed that a typical contact point lies on the base circle tangent which is perpendicular to the rack tooth profile. Since the contact point always lies on this line, the path of contact is a segment of the same line. We can therefore specify the position of a contact point by its distance along this line from the pitch point. We introduce the length s, as shown in Figure 3.5, and it is defined in the manner of a coordinate, so that it is positive for points which lie above P, and negative for those lying below P. To derive an expression for s, we use a method which is very similar to the procedure just used when we found a relation between the pinion and rack positions. When the contact point is at the pitch point, the angular position of the pinion is given by Equation (3.19), 62 Gears in Mesh and the value of s is zero. After a pinion rotation ~~, the angular position of the pinion is given by Equation (3.21), fJ (3.26) The rack will have displaced a distance Rp~~' as we showed in Equation (3.24), and the corresponding value of s can then be read from Figure 3.5, s (3.27) We eliminate ~~ between Equations (3.26 and 3.27), and we use Equation (3.11) to replace (Rp cos~) by Rb\u2022 We then obtain an expression for s as a function of the pinion angular position ~, s Rb~ + lt cos ~ 2 P (3.28) If we use Equation (3.28) to find the values of s corresponding to any two positions of the subtract one result from the other, expression for the displacement ~s of pinion, we can then and we obtain an the contact point Sliding Velocity 63 corresponding to a rotation llfJ of the pinion", " Sliding Velocity The sliding velocity at the contact point is defined as the difference between the velocities of the two points in contact. If point A of the pinion touches point Ar of the rack, then the sliding velocity is defined as follows, Sliding veloc i ty (3.30) In order to derive an expression for the sliding 64 Gears in Mesh velocity, we need to make use of the set of unit vectors nt, n~ and nS in the directions of the coordinate axes, and we also introduce the two unit vectors shown in Figure 3.6, which are associated with a rack tooth profile. These vectors are nnr' in the direction of the outward-pointing normal to the tooth profile, and nTr , in the tangential direction toward the tip of the tooth. If the rack velocity is vr ' this is of course the velocity of any point in the rack, and therefore in vector form the veloc i ty of Ar can be wri tten, (3.31) To obtain the velocity of point A, we form the vector product of the pinion angular velocity and the position vector from C to A", " We find the position of a typical contact point, and then check to see if the common normal at the contact point cuts the line of centers at the pitch point. Any normal to the tooth profile of gear 1 must touch the base circle of gear 1, while any normal to the tooth profile of gear 2 must touch the base circle of gear 2. Hence, the common normal at the contact point must touch both base circles, which means it must coincide with the common tangent to the base circles. If the common tangent touches the base circles at E1 and E2 , as shown in Figure 3.7, then the posi tion of the tooth contact point must be somewhere on line E1E2 , and the common normal at the contact point lies along E1E2 . The point where this line intersects the line of centers is labelled P', and we must now check to see whether P' coincides with the pitch point P. The radii C1E1 and C2E2 in Figure 3.7 are each perpendicular to E1E2 , and they are therefore parallel. 66 Gears in Mesh Hence, the triangles E,C,P' and E2C2P' are similar, and we obtain the following relation between the sides of the triangles, The lengths E,C, and E2C2 are equal to the base circle radii, which we express by means of Equations (3.35 and 3.36), and the relation then takes the following form, (3.37) We proved in Chapter' that the pitch point P divides the line of centers C'C2 in the ratio N, :N2 \u2022 If point P' is to coincide with P, the right-hand side of Equation (3", " In practice, two gears intended to mesh together are almost always designed so that they have the same module m and the same pressure angle lP s \u2022 In other words, they are conjugate to the same basic rack. The base pitch of a gear is related to the module and the pressure angle by Equations (2.24 and 2.3'), 1rm cos I/I s (3.39) Hence, if the two gears are designed with the same module and the same pressure angle, this ensures that they have the same base pi tch, and therefore that they wi 11 mesh correctly. A Pair of Gears in Mesh 67 The meshing diagram of a pair of gears is shown in Figure 3.8, with line E1E2 cutting the line of centers at the pitch point P. The pitch circles of the two gears are the circles which pass through P, and their radii are expressed in terms of the center di stance C by Equat ions ('.24 and 1.25), (3.40) (3.41) We have proved that the common normal at the contact point lies along E,E2 , and this line is therefore the line of action. For a pair of gears, the operating pressure angle ~ is defined as the angle between the line of action and the common tangent to the pitch circles at P", "46) When this relation is compared with Equation (3.42), it is evident that the operating pressure angle of gear is equal to the operating pressure angle ~ of the gear pair, A Pair of Gears in Mesh 69 I/>pl (3.47) A similar argument shows that the operating pressure angle of gear 2 is also equal to 1/>, I/>P2 (3.48) and Equations (3.47 and 3.48) can of course be combined, to show that the three angles are all equal, I/>Pl I/>P2 (3.49) Equation (3.49) could have been proved more directly, simply by looking at the meshing diagram shown in Figure 3.9, where the contact point coincides with the pitch point. The common tangent to the tooth profiles at the contact point is perpendicular to the line of action, and it can be seen from the diagram that the three angles I/>pl' I/>P2 and I/> are all equal. We have shown that the operating circular pitches Ppl and Pp2 are equal, and that the operating pressure angles I/>Pl and I/>P2 are also equal. It is often convenient, whenever we 70 Gears in Mesh have proved that a particular quantity on one gear is always equal to the corresponding quantity on the other gear, to introduce a single symbol which can be used to stand for either quantity", " The same convention will be used throughout the remainder of the book, without further explanation. Relation Between the Gear Positions For gear 1, we have specified the angular posi tion by the angle f1 1, measured from line C1P counterclockwise to the x 1 axis. We now specify the angular position of gear 2 in the same manner, as the angle f12 measured from line C2P counterclockwise to the x2 axis. In this section we derive a relation between the angles f11 and f1 2\u2022 The two gears are shown in Figure 3.9, with the contact point coinciding with the pitch point, and in these positions the angles f11 and f12 can be written down by inspection, -~ 2Rp1 f11 (3.50) -~ 2Rp2 (3.51) After rotations ~f11 and ~f12' the angular positions of the two gears are given by the following expressions, The angular Equation (1.21), f11 -~+ 2Rp1 f12 -~+ 2Rp2 velocities ~f11 (3.52) ~f12 (3.53) and are related by (3.54) and we integrate this equation to find a relation between the gear rotations, Path of Contact and Line of Action 7' (3", " We have also shown that, for any position of the contact point on this line, the common normal at the contact point also lies along line E,E2 \u2022 Hence, the line of action, which is defined as the common normal at the 72 Gears in Mesh contact point, coincides with the path of contact. This is a special property of involute gears, as we will prove in Chapter 9. For non-involute gears, the path of contact is no longer straight, and the direction of the line of action varies, depending on the position of the contact point. Imaginary Rack The gear pair of Figure 3.10 is shown with a rack profile drawn between the teeth. Since the rack profile has no thickness, it is called an imaginary rack, or sometimes a phantom rack. The concept of the imaginary rack is useful, because the geometric properties of a pinion and rack can generally be proved more easily than those of a pair of gears. Very often, a result proved for a pinion and rack can be applied directly to the case of a pair of gears, with the help of the imaginary rack. If the imaginary rack is to fit between the gear teeth in the manner shown, the rack tooth profile must coincide with the common tangent to the gear teeth at their contact point, and the pressure angle 4>~ of the imaginary rack must therefore be equal to the operating pressure angle 4> of the gear pair, 4>' r (3", " We can therefore use Equations (3.28 and 3.29) directly, to write down the position s of the contact point, and the displacement ~s of the contact point corresponding to a rotation ~~, of gear \" s (3.59) ~s (3.60) Sliding Velocity We calculate the sliding velocity of a gear pair in the same manner that we did for the case of a rack and pinion. If point A, of gear' is in contact with point A2 of gear 2, we write down the velocities of A, and A2 , and subtract them to find the sliding velocity. In Figure 3.\" the unit vectors parallel with and perpendicular to the line of action are labelled nnr and nTr \u2022 This notation reflects the fact that, if we drew an imaginary rack between the gears, these would be the directions of the normal and the tangent to the teeth of the imaginary rack. 74 Gears in Mesh The position of the contact point is given by the coordinate s on the path of contact. The velocities of A, and A2 are then expressed in terms of s in the usual manner, When we subtract the velocity of A2 from (Rp ,w,+Rp2w2) disappears, as we showed and the sliding velocity is given expression, A, A2 v - v that of A\" the term in Equation (3.54), by the following (3.63) Center Distance C, and Standard Center Distance Cs When we proved that a pair of gears with equal base pitches can mesh correctly at a center distance C, we made no restrictions on the value of C. An involute of a base circle is a curve which starts at the base circle, and then spirals Standard Center Distance 75 around the base circle with ever-increasing radius, as shown in Figure 3.12. It is possible, in principle, to use any part of this curve as the tooth profile, and therefore a pair of gears with base circle radii Rb1 and Rb2 could theoretically be designed to operate at any center distance which is larger than the sum of the base circle radii. In practice, of course, there are a number of considerations which limit the useful range of center distance values. The most important of these practical considerations is the question of how the gears are to be cut. Let us assume that we have a cutting tool which can cut a pair of gears with N1 and N2 teeth, to mesh at a certain center distance", " We did not, however, give any recommended values for the tooth thickness or the addendum in a gear. The reason for this omission is that suitable values depend on the operating conditions of a gear pair, and in particular, on the center distance. We defined the addendum as and the dedendum bs as the radial distances from the tip circle and the root circle to the standard pitch circle. The addendum and dedendum can also be measured from the pitch circle, in the manner shown in Recommended Tooth proportions 77 Figure 3.13, and in this case we use the symbols ap and bp to distinguish these quantities from as and bs \u2022 For a pair of gears, the working depth of the teeth is defined as the amount by which the teeth overlap when the gears are in operation, and it is therefore equal to the sum of the addendum values, measured f rom the pi tch eire les, Working depth (3.66) The clearance at the root circle of each gear is the amount by which the dedendum of that gear exceeds the addendum of the meshing gear. Hence, the clearance values c 1 and c 2 for the two gears of a pair are given by the following expressions, (3" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003871_j.jmatprotec.2007.09.024-Figure6-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003871_j.jmatprotec.2007.09.024-Figure6-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 6 \u2013 Schematic drawings showing the relative positions of the powder feed position, powder feed angle and focal er fe", "texts": [ " It is evident from Table 4 that the deposition fficiency was most significantly affected by the powder feed osition, and very significantly by the powder feed angle, and ignificantly by the powder feed rate and travel speed, but not y the shielding gas type, laser pulse shape and focal position. .2.

These two extreme cases are illustrated in Fig. 6, where the figures were drawn as exactly as possible on the basis of the measurements from Figs. 2 and 3. For optimum deposition efficiency the powder has to be melted by the laser beam and should not rebound away from the surface. It seems the most important for depositing that the powder has to stay in the laser beam as long as possible and not to rebound away against the surface. In Fig. 6(a), the powder feed position is just on the surface and the feed angle is small as 50\u25e6, where most powder strikes the surface at the center of a laser beam. At the moment the powder impacts the surface, the laser beam rapidly heats up the powder and simultaneously the surface. The heated powder becomes so plastic that it stays in contact with the surface for a long time, which melts the powder and deposits it without rebounding. This may explain why the deposition efficiency is high at 0 mm of the feed position and 50\u25e6 of the feed angle in Fig. 5. The high deposition efficiency /N ratio posit Table 5.

In Fig. 6(b), the powder feed position is +4 mm over the surface and the feed angle is relatively large at 70\u25e6. A lot of powder passes through the powder stream without collision with other particles, and hits the surface at an inclined angle and out of the laser beam as shown in Fig. 6(b). In this case, the powder is only heated during its flight across the laser beam, not at the moment of an impact on the surface, so that it tends to rebound away from the surface without melting and depositing. It was observed that few grains of powder were deposited outside of a clad line, which supplements that the above explanation is meaningful. This may explain why the deposition efficiency was very low at +4 mm of the feed position and 70\u25e6 of the feed angle as shown in Fig. 5. At the condition 3 in Table 3, for example, the deposition efficiency was very low as 1", " If the travel speed is low, it causes the substrate surface to be heated up to higher temperature, and results in the increase of the deposition efficiency. The focal point of the laser beam had little effect on the deposition efficiency. When the laser beam was focused by the lens of 203 mm of the effective focal length, the diameter of the laser beam did not vary rapidly with a distance away from the focal spot as shown in Fig. 2. As the focal position varied from 0 to +4 mm, the diameters of the irradiated spots were found to change from 1.46 to 1.59 mm. As comparatively illustrated in Fig. 6(a) and (b), it is clearly seen that the focal position could not affect the deposition efficiency. ed position, 0 mm; focal position of laser beam, 0 mm.

The laser pulse shape did not affect the deposition efficiency, which means that the deposition efficiency was affected by the average laser power rather than the shape and peak power of single laser pulse shown in Fig. 4. 3.3.

The tangent space at p 2 M is indicated with TpM and its expression in the local coordinate chart x as TxM. The tangent space TpM has the same dimension of the manifold M .

For the particular kind of system studied in this paper, the dual point of view of the distribution is particularly interesting because, as will be shown below, it corresponds to highlighting the non-holonomic constraints of the system. If the cotangent space, dual to TpM, is called T \u00a4 p M (T\u00a4 xM in coordinates) then the following de\u00ae nition is obtained.

What (3) says is that, in coordinates, the one-forms \u00ac j\u2026x\u2020 can be written as a s \u00a3 r matrix such that the gi\u2026x\u2020 constitute a basis for the right null space of this matrix. Then, if one wants to be able to use the machinery of exterior di\u0152erential systems, one has to endow the codistribution I with some extra structure in order to make sure that the solution of the collection of one-forms is indeed an integrable distribution. This property correspond to the regularity assumption of a point in the distribution case. Such a special case of codistribution is called a Pfa an system. De\u00ae nition 4: The codistribution formed by the smooth and independent one-forms I \u02c6 f\u00ac1; . . . ; \u00acsg is said to be a Pfa an system if it generates an ideal I which is closed under exterior di\u0152erentiation.

Local controllability for underactuated systems A fundamental (and well-studied) issue to deal with underactuated systems is controllability (see Nijmeijer and van der Shaft 1990) or, for example, the classical survey paper (Hermann and Krener 1977). In what follows only the local properties around a regular point x0 are of interest. De\u00ae nition 5: System (1) is said to be small-time locally controllable at x0 2 D if one can reach nearby points in arbitrarily small amounts of time remaining in D. It is well-known that the notion of local controllability (which coincides with local strong accessibility for drift-free systems) can be checked in geometric terms by considering the span of the commutators of the vector \u00ae elds that generate the system. This idea is strictly connected with that of involutive distribution via the Frobenius theorem that gives necessary and su cient condition for (local) complete integrability of a distribution. This is essentially equivalent to saying that the annihilator space of has to be spanned by exact differentials, at least locally. The fundamental tool to test local controllability is the Chow theorem which asserts that a system is locally controllable if and only if it is maximally non-integrable. The vector \u00ae elds of , together with their commutators, form an algebra called the control Lie algebra. In order to construct it, one has to build a \u00ae ltration, patching together the vector \u00ae elds of and all the new independent commutators produced at each level of Lie bracketing 0 \u02c6 , i \u02c6 span f i\u00a11 \u2021 i\u00a11; i\u00a11\u0160g;\u2030 such that 0 \u00bb 1 \u00bb \u00a2 \u00a2 \u00a2 \u00bb k \u20264\u2020 for some \u00ae nite k. Di\u0152erent rules for building the above \u00ae ltration are given in Laumond (1993 a, b), and Murray and Sastry (1993). In a regular point, the dimension of the \u00ae ltration (called the growth vector) stabilizes in correspondence of the control Lie algebra. Local controllability is obtained when the rank of the control Lie algebra is equal to the dimension of the tangent space. A dual characterization can be carried out for the Pfa an system corresponding to (1). In particular, dually to the \u00ae ltration (4), a descending chain of Pfa an systems can be constructed called the derivative \u00af ag I 0\u2026 \u2020 \u00bc I \u20261\u2020 \u00bc \u00a2 \u00a2 \u00a2 \u00bc I k\u2026 \u2020 \u20265\u2020 where I \u20260\u2020 \u02c6 I and I \u2026 j\u20211\u2020 \u02c6 f\u00aci \u02c62 I \u2026 j\u2020 s:t: d\u00aci \u00b2 0 mod I \u2026 j\u2020g is the derived Pfa an system of I\u2026 j\u2020. The expression d\u00aci \u00b2 0 mod I \u2026 j\u2020 is called a congruence and means that the exterior derivative of \u00aci is a linear combination of the one-forms of I \u2026 j\u2020 (over the ideal I \u2026 j\u2020), i.e. d\u00aci ^ \u00ac1j ^ \u00a2 \u00a2 \u00a2 ^ \u00acsj \u02c6 0 8\u00aclj 2 I \u2026 j\u2020. Similarly to the \u00ae ltration, the derivative \u00af ag also stops at a certain k for regular points. The maximal non-integrability condition can be stated in terms of the derivative \u00af ag, saying that local controllability is equivalent to the existence of an integer k at which the derivative \u00af ag becomes empty: I k\u2026 \u2020 \u02c6 0. To have controllability, the bottom system of the derivative \u00af ag, which is always integrable by the Frobenius theorem, has to be empty. This implies that there is no integrable subsystem of the original system, i.e. the solution trajectories of I are not constraints to lie on a leaf of a (non-trivial) foliation of M. 2.3. Singularities Regularity of x0 means that the distribution does not lose rank in the neighbourhood D of x0. A similar condition is of interest for the \u00ae ltration (4). If the D ow nl oa de d by [ U ni ve rs ity o f N ew ca st le ( A us tr al ia )] a t 1 1: 17 0 9 Se pt em be r 20 14 dimension of the entire sequence (4) is constant in D, then x0 is regular with respect to the \u00ae ltration, in order to distinguish from the regularity with respect to only. De\u00ae nition 6: A point x0 which is not regular with respect to the \u00ae ltration is said to be singular. All the singular points of the system form the socalled singular locus of the system. The knowledge of the singular locus is important when checking controllability: in fact in correspondence of such a zero dimensional submanifold, the number of Lie bracketing operations needed to span the whole tangent space is di\u0152erent from the points which are regular with respect to the \u00ae ltration. The complexity of such a check (which is proportional to the complexity of a steering algorithm for the system) obviously increases in the singular points. 2.4. Embedding map The next concept needed is that of an embedding map of a manifold. De\u00ae nition 7: Given two smooth manifolds M1 and M2 with dim \u2026M1\u2020 \u02c6 q1 and dim \u2026M2\u2020 \u02c6 q2, q1 \u00b5 q2, the C1 map f : M1 ! M2 is called a local immersion of x 2 M1 if there exists a neighbourhood D 2 M1 of x0 such that rank f \u2026x\u2020 \u02c6 q1 8x 2 D. So a map between manifolds is an immersion if it has the same rank as the domain. Obviously the rank is independent of the local chart used. When an immersion is `well-behaved\u2019 it is called an embedding. For well-behaved we mean that it has to be an isomorphism onto its image with respect to the topology induced from the corresponding R q1 by the local chart used (Spivak 1979). De\u00ae nition 8: The C1 map f : M1 ! M2 is an embedding if it is an immersion and it is an homomorphism onto its image. Moreover, one has the following de\u00ae nition. De\u00ae nition 9: Suppose M1 \u00bb M2. M1 is a submanifold of M2 if the identity map id: M1 ! M2 is embedding. 3. Kinematic model for the general n-trailer Suppose a generalized n-trailer system is obtained with m \u2026m \u00b5 n\u2020 of the trailers not directly attached at the centre of the previous axle but at a positive distance Mi from this point. Assume that each body is composed of one single axle, this being equivalent to the case where two-axis bodies are present, modulo a state feedback (see Tilbury et al. 1995 b). The assumption of rolling without slipping of the wheels can be formulated in terms of non-holonomic kinematic constraints deciding the instantaneous direction of the velocity vector of each axle. Let \u00b3i be the orientation angle of the ith axle and vi the translational velocity of the midpoint of the ith axle, i 2 0; 1; . . . ; nf g. If xi and yi are the corresponding cartesian coordinates, then the one-forms can be expressed as \u00aci \u02c6 dxi sin \u00b3i \u00a1 dyi cos \u00b3i \u02c6 0 \u20266\u2020 If Li is the distance between the ith axle and the hitching point of the same trailer and Mi is the distance between the i th axle and the kingpin hitching point of the following trailer, we can use the (holonomic) relations between two consecutive nodes ith and i \u2021 1th (see \u00ae gure 1) xi\u20211 \u02c6 xi \u00a1 Li\u20211 cos \u00b3i\u20211 \u00a1 Mi cos \u00b3i yi\u20211 \u02c6 yi \u00a1 Li\u20211 sin \u00b3i\u20211 \u00a1 Mi sin \u00b3i 9 = ; \u20267\u2020 and the one-forms (6) to obtain a recursive equation for the orientation angle \u00b3i\u20211 as a function of \u00b3i and vi, i 2 1; . . . ; n \u00a1 1f g _\u00b3i\u20211 \u02c6 vi sin \u2026\u00b3i \u00a1 \u00b3i\u20211\u2020 Li\u20211 \u00a1 Mi cos \u2026\u00b3i \u00a1 \u00b3i\u20211\u2020 _\u00b3i Li\u20211 \u20268\u2020 Also the calculation of the velocity of the axle i \u2021 1 is slightly more complicated than in the standard n-trailer problem vi\u20211 \u02c6 vi cos \u2026\u00b3i \u00a1 \u00b3i\u20211\u2020 \u2021 Mi sin \u2026\u00b3i \u00a1 \u00b3i\u20211\u2020 _\u00b3i \u20269\u2020 This accounts for the intuitive phenomenon that, in presence of o\u0152-hitching, a trailer can have a (small) positive velocity and the following trailer a negative one, when the angle between the two trailers \u00b3i \u00a1 \u00b3i\u20211 is changing with high rate. Obviously, both equation (8) and equation (9) reduce to the well-known equations for the standard n-trailer problem when no o\u0152-hitching is present, namely when Mi \u02c6 0. The n-trailer system has two physical inputs, corresponding to translational and steering actions of the car pulling the trailers. Calling 1 7 \u00b30 \u00a1 \u00b31, at the kinematic level these two inputs can be considered to be the steering speed !0 \u02c6 _ 1 \u02c6 _\u00b30 \u00a1 _\u00b31 and the D ow nl oa de d by [ U ni ve rs ity o f N ew ca st le ( A us tr al ia )] a t 1 1: 17 0 9 Se pt em be r 20 14 translational speed v0 of the driving cart. Alternatively, the steering input can be considered as: !0 \u02c6 _\u00b30 \u02c6 v0 sin 1 \u2021 L1 _ 1 L1 \u2021 M0 cos 1 To complete the state space model of the general ntrailer system, the cartesian coordinates of one of the middle points of the axles are needed: for the purposes of proving controllability it is convenient to choose \u2026x0; y0\u2020 of the driving cart _x0 \u02c6 v0 cos \u00b30 \u202610\u2020 _y0 \u02c6 v0 sin \u00b30 \u202611\u2020 whereas it has been shown in S\u00f9 rdalen (1993 a) for the standard n-trailer problem, that choosing the cartesian coordinates of the last trailer is particularly signi\u00ae cant when the task is to transform the system into a chained form, because it is connected to di\u0152erential \u00af atness (Fliess et al. 1995) _xn \u02c6 vn cos \u00b3n \u202612\u2020 _yn \u02c6 vn sin \u00b3n \u202613\u2020 In fact, the coordinates xn and yn correspond to the socalled \u00af at outputs for the standard n-trailer. In both cases, an ad hoc selection of the cartesian coordinates greatly simpli\u00ae es the calculations.

We calculate the distances, at the thread tip and at the top of the fillet, between this profile and its tangent at the standard pitch cylinder, as shown in Figure 16.14. The profile of a straight-sided hob would coincide with this tangent, and a hob of that type would therefore cut too deeply into the teeth of the gear, in the regions near the fillet and near the tip.

Temperature distribution of the small-scale model at a certain time step by detailed process simulation.", "texts": [ " Moreover, some necessary details for the parameter calibration for printing thin-walled lattice structures through thermocouple experiment are presented in Appendix D. If necessary, many helpful details such as the thermal and mechanical boundary conditions employed for this kind of small-scale detailed process simulation can be found in Refs. [20,24]. According to the detailed small-scale process simulation, a typical temperature distribution of the small-scale model at a certain time step is shown in Fig. 3. Line numbering in Fig. 3 is exactly the same with that in Fig. 2. The simulated depositing order is 1-2-4-3 as in the practical LPBF process. The thermal history of the mid-point of the single wall (line 1 in Fig. 3) in the first layer is plotted in Fig. 4(a). As can be seen in the figure, two drastic temperature increases can be found due to repeated heating and cooling of the two-layer metal depositions. Especially for a point in the cross regions of the small-scale model, due to two perpendicular laser scanning paths, two melting events are simulated for materials over there. As a result, two temperature peeks are shown during depositing of a single layer based on the thermal history as plotted in Fig. 4(b). The plotted thermal profiles in Fig. 3 and thermal history curves in Fig. 4 look very reasonable and convincing. Therefore, the detailed small-scale process simulation is reliable for extraction of inherent strains in the walls of the thin-walled lattice structures. Regarding the choice of the small-scale model containing four walls, another necessary clarification is made hereby. According to experimental experience, the materials at the edge and corner of an AM build may have different mechanical behavior largely because of different thermal histories related to different boundary conditions", " Assume \u201ca larger RVE\u201d contains more lines in the small-scale model (selected representative volume). For example, a small-scale model where six lines are included is taken into consideration. In contrast to Fig. 2, there are three lines in each direction on the 2D plane and four square hollow sections are formed. The gap size between two walls is identically 1.0 mm like that shown in Fig. 2. New simulation results show that the extracted inherent strain values are nearly the same to those values shown in Fig. 3 as expected. The reason is that the heat source diameter is assumed to be 0.1mm, which is very small compared with the length of each line in the small-scale model (line length is 2.0 mm in Fig. 2, for example). In addition, the laser scanning velocity is 0.9m/s. Therefore, the temperature decreases very quickly after heat source moves away. Given a concerned material point in the line, those materials far away have limited influence to the point of interest. This finding can also be observed in Fig", " Theoretically, the size of the small-scale model should vary when the distance between walls of the lattice varies. For example, the small-scale model with wall gap size of 0.75mm and 0.5 mm should be used for volume density of 0.25 and 0.36, respectively. However, our thermal simulation result indicates a wall has no influence on the remaining walls except the cross regions. The heatinduced high temperature affected zone is very small compared with the gap size according to thermal history of the small-scale model at a certain time step as shown in Fig. 3. Therefore, we can assume the influence of a wall on the remaining walls is limited when distance between walls of the lattice is large enough. As a result, we can apply the extracted inherent strains from small-scale simulation for volume density of 0.19 to other cases in this paper. Nonetheless, it is noted that the above finding may not hold for a case where the wall gap size is close to or smaller than the wall thickness. For example, when the gap size decreases to 0.15mm for volume density of 0", "05mm as elucidated in Fig. 4(c). The directional inherent strain vectors including = \u2212 \u2212\u03b5 ( 0.010, 0.003, 0.009)1 * and = \u2212 \u2212\u03b5 ( 0.003, 0.010, 0.009)2 * are assigned to the four walls with respect to their span-wise direction accordingly as shown in Fig. 5. For the four corners, the two in-plane components in the directional inherent strain vector are averaged, and the simple inherent strain vector = \u2212 \u2212\u03b5 ( 0.0065, 0.0065, 0.009)3 * is assigned to those cross regions instead of using the calculated values in Fig. 3. This choice is consistent with some previous works [20,22,24,25], where the average of directional inherent strain vectors was used for the solid material scanned by rotational laser scanning strategy in the simulations to gain efficiency by layer lumping. The benefit is that the homogenized inherent strains can converge to certain values for solid material when volume density reaches its limit of 1 in the paper.

Fillet Shape Cut by a Pinion Cutter To find the fillet shape of a gear cut by a pinion cutter, we use a procedure which is essentially the same as the method described earlier, for the case when the gear was cut by a rack cutter.

To find the position of Af on a gear cut by a pinion cutter, we consider the meshing diagram of the gear blank and the cutter, which is shown in Figure 5.14. If the cutter is turning counter-clockwise, the cutting point moves outwards on the cutter tooth towards the tip, inwards on the gear tooth towards the root, and downwards along the path of contact. The involute part of the gear tooth profile is cut by the involute section of the cutter tooth. The lowest point Af on the gear tooth involute is therefore cut by Ahc ' the highest point on the cutter tooth involute, and this occurs when Ahc lies on the path of contact. The path followed by Ahc is a circle of radius Rhc ' and the point where this circle intersects the common tangent to the base circles is labelled Hc", " The involute section of the gear tooth profile is cut by the straight-sided part of the cutter tooth, and the end point Af of the gear tooth involute is therefore cut by point Ahr on the cutter. This cut is made when Ahr lies on the path of contact, which takes place at Hr , the point where the path followed by Ahr intersects the path of contact. Hence, the 140 Gear Cutting I, Spur Gears fillet circle of the gear passes through point Hr , and its radius is found as follows, R2 [ h-e ] 2 bg + Rbg tan 4J s - sin 4J s (5.48) In Figure 5.14, Hc is the end point of the straight-line path of contact, which corresponds to the involute sections of the gear and the cutter tooth profiles. If we were to find the position of the cutting point corresponding to a point on the gear tooth fillet, it would not lie on the same straight line. However, for the present we are only interested in the involute part of the tooth profiles, so we will regard point Hc as the end of the path of contact. Hc is shown in Figure 5.14, lying between the pitch point P and the interference point Eg \u2022 As we stated in the previous section, the position of Hc is determined by the intersection of the cutter circle of radius Rhc ' and the common tangent to the base circles. If point Hc lies below Eg , the following situation will occur. While the cutting point moves down the path of contact as far as point Eg , the gear tooth is cut with the correct involute profile, right down to point B on the base circle. However, when the cutting point reaches Eg , there is still part of the cutter involute near point Ahc ' which has not yet made a final cut on the gear tooth", " For this reason, provided there is no undercutting by point Ahc ' there is also no undercutting by the rounded section of the cutter tooth. When we check to see whether undercutting will take place, we can 142 Gear Cutting I, Spur Gears therefore treat the cutter tooth as if it ~nded at point Ahc ' We make the check, simply by determining the position of point Hc on the path of contact. For no undercutting, Hc must lie between the pitch point and the interference point E \u2022 In g other words, the length HcEc in Figure 5.14 must be less than or equal to EgEc' and the condition for no undercutting can be expressed as follows, (5.49) The same considerations on undercutting apply when a gear is cut by a rack cutter or a hob. The path of contact in Figure 5.15 must end between the pitch point and the interference point, so the length HrP must be less than EgP, and we obtain the following condition for no undercutting, Rbg tan tPs (5.50) It can be seen that, for any particular value of the cutter offset e, there is a lower limit to the base circle radius in the gear being cut, if there is to be no undercutting" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003581_icar.2005.1507426-Figure2-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003581_icar.2005.1507426-Figure2-1.png", "caption": "Figure 2 Artist\u2019s impression of a robotic vehicle for power line inspection.", "texts": [ " Essentially the unmanned vehicle must reproduce the behavior associated with a manned vehicle \u2013 even if the data-link with a remote pilot fails.

The mechanism of imaging magnetic domains in magnetic materials relies on the Aharonov-Bohm effect, which describes the relative phase shift of two electron waves traveling from point Q to P along routes enclosing a zone with magnetic field distribution (Fig. 6.41a): 1.\\<1> = <1>1 - <1>2 = - B . dS = - A\u00b7 dL 2n:e J 2n:e f h s h (6.100) where dS is a surface integral over the area enclosed by the two routes and the surface normal is pointing into the paper, A is the magnetic vector potential with B = V x A, and dL represents a path integral following Q-RI-P-RrQ. In fact, electron holography has provided direct experimental evidence for the existence of the Aharonov-Bohm effect (Tonomura, 1993). To illustrate how magnetic microstructure is quantitatively revealed by holographic imaging, we assume that the magnetic flux does not leak out of the specimen and that the sample is uniform in composition and thickness, such that the magnetization is uniform along the beam direction and the phase introduced by the electrostatic field of the specimen is constant across the specimen.

A limited number of experimental studies reveal the sensitivity of crack geometry to the punch tip geometry and to the material properties of the penetrated solid (Stephens and Kramer, 1964; Katakura and Tsuji, 1985; Stevenson and Abmalek, 1994). Shergold and Fleck (2004a) have demonstrated that a sharp-tipped punch penetrates human skin and silicone rubber by the formation of a planar mode I crack ahead of the tip, see Fig. 1a.

Upon punch removal the planar crack closes (Fig. 1c), and in this undeformed configuration the crack has a length of 2a. In this paper, we shall demonstrate experimentally that a high-speed liquid jet penetrates human skin and silicone rubber by the same mode I planar cracking mechanism as that observed for a sharptipped punch. Shergold and Fleck (2004b) have proposed that the deep penetration of a soft solid by a sharp-tipped punch occurs by the mechanism shown in Fig. 1. The soft solid represents mammalian skin and silicone rubbers, and is treated as an incompressible, hyper-elastic, isotropic solid as described by a one-term Ogden (Ogden, 1972) strain energy density function of the form f \u00bc 2m a2 \u00f0la1 \u00fe la2 \u00fe la3 3\u00de, (1) where f is the strain energy density per undeformed unit volume, a is a strain hardening exponent, m is the shear modulus under infinitesimal straining and li are the principal stretch ratios. The Shergold\u2013Fleck model predicts that the axial penetration pressure pS on the shank of the punch increases with diminishing punch radius R, and with increasing mode I toughness JIC, shear modulus m and strain hardening exponent a", " These findings are similar to the sharp-tipped punch penetration experiments of Shergold and Fleck (2005a). A comparison of the investigations reveals that a liquid jet requires double the pressure to penetrate human skin or B452 rubber compared with a sharp-tipped punch of equal diameter. Photographs of the injection site show that a liquid jet penetrates a soft solid by the formation of planar crack that opens to accommodate fluid flow. This penetration mechanism is similar to that of a soft solid by a sharptipped punch (Shergold and Fleck, 2005a), as shown in Fig. 1. Examples of cracking on the surface of human skin and B452 silicone rubber are given in Fig. 6. Sections taken perpendicular to the front face of the B452 rubber block a posteriori demonstrate that the crack extends deep into the block. Fig. 7 shows the crack geometry at depth into the B452 rubber block.

A lower dynamic viscosity increases the convection of molten pool, and allows more tungsten particles to enter the molten pool and form high tungsten content. On the other hand, to some extent, with the increasing laser energy input, the molten pool becomes wider, causing more tungsten powders to enter the molten pool; however, if the size of molten pool is lager than that of powder flow (as shown in Fig. 2a), the percentage of tungsten will decline. Therefore, as the laser power further increases to 4000 W, the percentage of tungsten in the deposited layer reduces. This phenomenon should be attributed to the higher dilution rate during DED. As shown in Fig. 5a, with the increase of laser power, the size of the molten pool (and HAZ) increases; however, with a constant and limited power feeding rate, the same amount of tungsten will be diluted more.

For example, WAAM is commonly used to fabricate parts with medium to large scale, it is challenging and costly to rotate such a large part in practice, as shown in Fig. 1 (a) [9]. For some cases, the structures are fixed in the service position, as shown in Fig. 1 (b) [10], a team from Netherlands built a steel bridge using multi-directional WAAM. In addition, WAAM has been used for in-situ repair of large components which cannot be placed on a rotation table.

In this model, one imagines a fluid Mathematical Models of Chaotic Physical Systems 69 layer, under gravity, which is heated from below so that a temperature difference is maintained across the layer (Figure 3-1). When this temperature difference becomes large enough, circulatory, vortex-like motion of the fluid results in which the warm air rises and the cool air falls. The tops of parallel rows of convection rolls can sometimes be seen when flying above a cloud layer.

These experiments emerged in the late 1970s. For example, Libchaber and Maurer (1978) observed period-doubling convection oscillation in helium. A number of experimental papers have emerged from a group at the French National Laboratory at Saclay, France, associated with Berge and coworkers (1980, 1982, 1985) See also Dubois et al. (1982). The experiment is similar to that pictured in Figure 3-1 with a fluid of silicone oil in a rectangular cell with dimensions 2 cm X 2.4 cm X 4 cm.

In general, the set of Poincare points in a strange attractor does not cover an integer-dimensional subspace (in Figure 4-8 this subspace is a plane). Another use for the fractal dimension calculation is to determine the lowest order phase space for which the motion can be described. For example, in the case of some preturbulent convective flows in a Rayleigh-Benard cell (see Figure 3-1), the fractal dimension of the chaotic attractor can be calculated from some measure of the motion ( x ( t n ) = xn} (see Malraison et al., 1983). From {*\u201e}, pseudo-phase-spaces of different dimension can be constructed (see Section 4.4). Using a computer algorithm, the fractal dimension d was found to reach an asymptotic d = 3.5 when the dimension of the pseudo-phase-space was four or larger.

A ducted-fan design was selected, based on the \u2018flying platform\u2019 principle [6], where the Centre of Gravity (CG) is deliberately placed above the aircraft centre (AC) to give dynamic stability in hover [7]. Early construction is shown in Figure 6. The payload (not shown) is mounted above the duct and attitude control is accomplished by moving a mass to change the position of the CG. Lift and yaw control are achieved by changing the propeller speeds collectively or differentially. Overall, the design is quite similar to that described by Sherman et al [8].

(3) The reciprocal distance between the undeflected bodies hR(x, y) is integrated over the surface in the two spatial directions x and y. Thus, the entire capacity of a loaded rolling contact CC is the sum of the parallel connected capacities CHz and CR. The resulting extended electrical model of the rolling contact is shown in Fig. 3. The surface area AR takes an annular shape and is the projection of the undeflected ball onto the raceway minus the hertzian contact area AHz. The surface is shown in Fig. 4 schematically. The representation of the undeflected contact area however inflicts a contradiction to the current state of research. According to equations (1) and (2), the calculation of the impedance of rolling bearings is based on the assumption that solely rolling elements with a Hertzian contact contribute to the total capacitance. Consequently rolling elements outside the load zone shouldn\u2019t add to it. In contrast, the undeflected area around the Hertzian zone increases the capacity by the factor kR as described, which implies that an unloaded rolling element should add to the total capacity of the bearing. Jablonka et al. [16] measured the capacity of a single rolling element over one revolution in the bearing and compared the result with a calculation based on the model shown in Fig. 3. Here the influence of the undeflected area of a loaded rolling element is described with equation (3). The expected capacity increase is observable as the rolling element passes the load zone, but also outside the load zone a capacity of the rolling element is measured. Previous work has examined axial loaded rolling bearings [5,17,19] in which all rolling elements are loaded. The electrical properties of the loaded single contact have also been investigated [15,18,20]. In addition to an absolute measured value, such as the lubricant film thickness, the friction regime was investigated [7,21], where unloaded rolling elements can be neglected", " (8) The position-dependent clearance \u03b4\u03d5, in turn, depends on the bearing clearance Pd and the radial sift \u03b4r between the bearing rings due to the radial load. \u03b4\u03d5 = \u03b4r cos \u03d5 \u2212 0.5Pd. (9) Instead of taking the Hertzian area as lower limit for the surface integral it is now integrated for the entire surface. The size of the surface AU is the area corresponding to the projection of the ball onto the raceway. It is comparable to the area AR in Fig. 4, the difference is that the Hertzian area is not present here. The distance between the undeflected as well as unloaded bodies hu(x, y) is integrated over the whole surface in x and y directions, shown in Fig. 3. The capacity of an unloaded contacts CU is calculated similar to equation (3) as follows: Fig. 5. Electrical model of a rolling bearing [2]. Fig. 6.

Both influences considered by Schneider et al. [22] with the factor kvh. This factor describes the ratio between the capacity of the flat plate capacitor, shown in Fig. 2 and equation (1), and the numerically calculated capacitance of the Hertzian contact. On the one hand, the difference between minimum and central lubricant film thickness decreases small lubricant film thicknesses, and for large lubricant film thicknesses, the influence of the undeflected capacitor, see Fig. 3, is large. This suggests that the influence of the minimum lubricant film thickness is negligible. On the other hand, Mann has demonstrated the influence of the minimum lubricant film thickness in the two-disc test rig. For this reason, a calculation has been carried out in Fig. 16 in which it was assumed that hmin is the lubricant film thickness in the entire rolling contact.

The distributed electromagnetical quantities in the machine are represented by complex phasors. However, since the reactances in the direct (d- ) and quadrature (4- ) axes of the machine are different (Fig. l) , the equations containing these reactances are split into d- and q-components. All quantities are used in p.u. form as defined in [4].\nIn a three-phase system, the stator current space phasor is is derived from phase quantities, i s ~ , isv-, isw in the following way:\ni s ( . r ) = $ ( Z S U ( T ) + ~ S V ( T ) exp ( j 27r/3)\n(1)\nSpace phasors for voltages and flux linkages are defined in the same manner.

MARCH 1994\nThe d-axis reactance depends considerably on the current component i S d , whereas the q-axis reactance can be assumed constant due to the large air-gap. Fig. 2 gives measurement results of the tested 4-pole l-kW motor.\nThe mechanical system is described by the following equation:\nd w d r rm ' - = t; + t L\nat which the produced torque roduced torque\nThe indirect flux detection by on-line reactance measurement (INFORM) method was introduced by one of the authors in 1988 [5] and has been applied to different machine types [6]. The basic idea is to measure the behavior of the current space phasor due to a test voltage space phasor in real time. Because of saturation effects (permanent magnet synchronous motor with surface-mounted magnets, induction motor) or geometric facts (reluctance motor), the change of the current space phasor relative to the respective voltage space phasor depends on the angular position of the voltage space phasor relative to the flux (permanent magnet motor, induction motor) or the rotor, respectively (reluctance motor).\nA. Machine at Standstill In the first step, assume the rotor angular velocity to be zero. In Fig. 4 the space phasor relations are given for an RM(ld = 21q). Measuring the currents and knowing the direction of the test voltage space phasor (in a stator-oriented reference frame a, b), the angle a in Fig. 4 can be determined. On the other hand, a is a function of double the rotor position, a = a (27). Hence, 2 7 can be calculated from given a. For the special cases y = k n/2 ( k = 0,1 , . . .), cy is zero, i.e., voltage and current change are in phase.\nLinearizing in the magnetic set-point defined by i sdo and isyo, we obtain from (2)-(4) in a d, q -reference frame (rotating at w ) In order to achieve maximum torque production at a given current space phasor modulus lis[, an optimum zSq/ iSd ratio can be determined.

Then the influence of processing parameters on the height of single cladding layer was equivalent to their influence on the amount of the powder injected into the melt pool. Fig. 2 shows the variation of the height of single cladding layer, H , with nickel-base alloy under different conditions and will be discussed in detail as follow. Before discussion, we had to make some definitions referring to Fig. 3. First, we defined three points as follows: . Point O, the center of the laser spot on the substrate surface. . Point A, the intersection point of the axis of powder stream and substrate surface. . Point B, the intersection point of the axis of powder stream and laser beam. Then Dx was defined to be the distance between point O and A. Dx was defined to be positive when point B was beneath point O, otherwise it was negative. The direction of scanning velocity is defined as positive when powder delivery nozzle and clad are in different sides of the laser beam, otherwise it is negative", " This was due to the amount of the powder injected into the melt pool varied with Dx , referring to Fig. 4. In Fig. 4, the shadow area, which represented the overlap between the laser spot and the powder stream, illustrated the amount of the powder injected into the melt pool approximately. From Fig. 2(a), it can also be found that the value of Dx corresponding to the maximum H was /2 mm. When the scanning velocity was positive and Dx ]/0, most of the powder was injected into the head part of the melt pool (see Fig. 3a, b). Since the shape of the melt pool is not axisymmetrical along the longitudinal section, in other words, if we take the center of laser spot as the origin point, the area of the head part of the melt pool is smaller than that of the tail part due to the heat flux. Therefore, the amount of the powder injected into the melt pool with Dx ]/0 was less than that with Dx B/0 (referring to Fig. 4). When the scanning velocity was negative and Dx ]/0, although most powder was injected into the tail part of the melt pool, the amount was still less than that with Dx B/0. It can be found from Fig. 3(c) that, the surface of the substrate was lifted due to the clad, which changed the relative position of laser beam, powder nozzle and substrate. When Dx ]/0, part of powders hit the surface of the solidified clad instead of being injected into the melt pool and was rebounded. When Dx B/0, this part of powders was injected into the melt pool which increased the total amount of the injected powders. Therefore, the value of Dx corresponding to the maximum H was still negative. Fig. 2(a) also shows that the height of single layer H varied with the direction of scanning velocity", " Therefore, the powder adhering on the surface was mainly those that were not injected into the pool, the more the diverging powder, the worse the adhesion. For the effectively limited powder stream, the powder adhesion was mainly determined by the position of the interaction area of the powder stream and melt pool. When the interaction area was focused on the head part of the melt pool, the powder which was not injected into the pool hit the solid substrate ahead the pool and rebounded, referring to Fig. 3(a). Even if some powders adhered on the surface of substrate, they would be melted when the laser beam scanned over the surface. Therefore, the surface was quite smooth. However, since a part of powder was not injected into melt pool and was rebounded, the height of single cladding layer was small. While when the interaction area was focused on the tail part of the melt pool, the powder which was not injected into the pool first heated by laser irradiation and then hit the solidified metal, which made it easy to adhere and led to powder adhesion" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003571_bf01212271-Figure1-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003571_bf01212271-Figure1-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 1.

T process because lattice support structures have lots of fine features which make mesh generation extremely difficult", " Typical elastic and plastic strain time history figures of a typical material point of interest have been reported in our previous work [24]. A key finding is that the depositing process of the third layer has limited influence on mechanical strain evolution of the first layer. As a result, the extracted inherent strain values have insignificant difference compared to those values extracted from the two-layer small-scale simulation. Therefore, the choice of a two-layer model in the small-scale simulation in this paper is reasonable. Given the periodicity of the features in the thin-walled lattice support structures (see Fig. 1), a small model containing four lines as shown in Fig. 2(a) is sufficiently representative. The parallel line scanning strategy is simulated as the basic scanning pattern and only single-track laser beam is employed for printing the support structures as shown in Fig. 2(b) in the L-PBF process. Due to the single-track laser scanning pattern, the wall thickness of the support structures is constant at 0.1mm, which equals the laser beam diameter.

The lower part should be designed to minimize the total operations count and to distribute the work load as evenly as possible over the available processors. One obvious solution is to use a balanced binary tree, so let us proceed on the assumption that the assembly tree should be designed to be balanced, and let us explore the obstacles to this strategy. Consider the problem of constructing an assembly tree for the mechanism shown in Figure 1(a). Every joint in this mechanism has the property that there are eight bodies on one side and only one body on the other, so every possible assembly tree is maximally unbalanced. This is an unacceptable situation, because the DCA relies on the depth of an assembly tree being logarithmic in the number of bodies. The problem is caused by the large branching factor at the central body, and the only possible solution is to treat the central body itself as a subassembly. Figure 1(b) illustrates the general idea. In this figure, the central body has been split into four pieces, which are held together by three rigid connections. For the purpose of constructing an assembly tree, these connections get treated exactly like real joints, so it may be helpful to think of them as zero-DoF joints. A mechanism that has been modified in this way is kinematically and dynamically indistinguishable from the original, because a rigid assembly of rigid bodies behaves in a manner that is indistinguishable from a single rigid body", " For dynamical equivalence, the sum of the inertias of the pieces at BROWN UNIVERSITY on December 16, 2012ijr.sagepub.comDownloaded from must equal the inertia of the original body. The simplest (and probably safest) choice is to split the inertia evenly between the pieces, but there is scope for clever optimizations here. In general, more than one body may need to be divided up in this way, and the number of pieces it is split into will depend on how many joints are attached to it. Two joints per piece is a good rule of thumb, and reconnecting the pieces in a serial chain, as shown in Figure 1(b), is a good general solution, but other possibilities do exist and may occasionally be more efficient. I shall refer to this technique as link splitting. It is a preprocessing step: done once per mechanism, not once per dynamics calculation. Its purpose is to reduce the execution time of the DCA by reducing the depth of the assembly tree. Bear in mind that link splitting does increase the mechanism\u2019s body count and hence also the total number of computations performed by the algorithm, so it is possible to increase the execution time by doing too much link splitting" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003468_978-1-4612-4764-7-Figure16.9-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003468_978-1-4612-4764-7-Figure16.9-1.png", "caption": "Figure 16.9. Left-handed hob and spur gear.", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "The most commonly used method for cutting helical gears is by hobbing. As always in generating cutting, one gear is used to cut another. A typical hob is shown in Figure 16.3, and it can be seen that, apart from the gashes forming the cutting faces, the hob is simply a helical gear, in which each tooth is referred to as a thread. A hob. 458 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears Since the hob is similar in shape to a screw, its helix angle \"'sh is always large, particularly when there is only one thread. It is cust~mary to specify the shape of a hob by means of its lead angle, rather than its helix angle. For a right-handed hob, the lead angle Ash is defined as the complement of the helix angle, (16.13) where Ash and \"'sh are measured in degrees. For a left-handed hob, whose helix angle is negative, the lead angle can be def ined as follows, - 90 0 - '\" sh ( 16.14) so that we obtain a negative lead angle for a left-handed hob. In practice, it is generally the magnitude of the lead angle which is given in the specification, together with a statement to indicate whether the hob is right or left-handed. It is clear that the lead angle can be determined from the helix angle, and vice versa. In describing the geometry of the hobbing process, we will specify the shape of the hob by means of its helix angle, since the symbols will then agree with the notation used in Chapter 15, where we described the geometry of crossed helical gears. Figure 16.4 shows a hob in position to cut a gear blank, and since their axes are not parallel, it is clear that they form a crossed helical gear pair. During the cutting process, the hob and the gear blank are rotated about their axes with angular veloci ties wh and wg ' I n order to cut the teeth of the gear across the entire face-width, the hob is moved slowly in the direction of the gear axis, and the velocity of the hob center is called the feed velocity vh . The values required for the three variables wh ' Wg and vh are achieved by means of change gears or stepping motors in the hobbing machine. There are two additional settings which must be made when the hobbing machine is being set up. These are the shaft angle ~, which is the angle between the axes of the hob and the gear blank, and the cutting center Hobbing 459 distance CC, which is the distance between the two axes. In the remainder of this section, we will determine the values required for the machine parameters wh ' wg ' vh ' E and CC, if the hob is to cut a gear with Ng teeth, normal module mn , normal pressure angle ~ns' helix angle ~sg' and normal tooth thickness t nsg Before we discuss the details of the cutting process, we will first prove that, as usual, the gear will have the same normal module and normal pressure angle as those of the hob. We showed in Chapter 15 that the minimum condition for correct meshing of two crossed helical gears is that their normal base pitches should be equal. The corresponding result, when we consider a gear being cut by a hob, is that the normal base pitch of the gear will always be equal to that of the hob. Since the normal base pitch of the hob is equal to that of the basic rack, we can conclude that the normal base pitches of the gear and the basic rack are equal, and the gear can therefore mesh correctly with the basic rack. As always, the standard pitch cylinder of the gear is defined as its pitch cylinder when it is meshed with the basic rack. The normal pitch Pns and the normal pressure angle ~ns of the gear must 460 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears then be equal to those of the basic rack, and hence equal to those of the hob. This result remains true, whether or not the cutting pitch cylinders of the gear and the hob coincide with the i r standard pi tch cylinders. In order to cut the gear described earlier, we must therefore use a hob with the same normal module and normal pressure angle as those specified for the gear. We consider next how to cut the required number of teeth, and the correct helix angle. When a rack cutter is used to cut a gear, the helix angle of the gear depends on the angle at which the cutter is set, so it might be expected that the helix angle of a gear being hobbed would be determined by the value of the shaft angle ~. This is not the case, however, and we will now show that the number of teeth cut in the gear blank, and the helix angle at which they are cut, depend only on the values chosen for wh ' Wg and vh \u2022 In Chapter 5, we defined the cutting point as the point where the cutter makes a cut on the final tooth surface, and we showed that this point corresponds to the contact point when the gear blank and the cutter are regarded as a pair of meshing gears. The situation is no different when the cutter is a hob. We described in Chapter 15 how to find the position of the contact point in a crossed helical gear pair, and this point becomes the cutting point when we consider a hob cutting a gear. As in any metal-cutting process, the shape of each tooth cut in a gear blank is the envelope of positions through which the hob moves, relative to the gear blank. For the purpose of determining this shape, it is helpful to neglect the gashes in the hob thread, so that the threads are regarded as continuous, and we can imagine that the teeth are formed in the gear blank by grinding, rather than by cutting. If the hob and the gear blank were a pair of crossed helical gears, there would always be at least one thread of the hob making contact with the gear. Hence, for the hob and the gear blank, there is always at least one thread which is in contact with the final tooth surface of the gear. We label the points in contact AOh on the hob, and AOg on the gear. After the hob turns through exactly one angular pitch, the position of the thread containing point AOh is occupied by the Hobbing 461 next thread, and the corresponding point Alh on this thread will now be the cutting point, touching a point A1g on the gear tooth adjacent to the tooth containing AOg. As the hob rotates, we can identify a sequence of points such as AOh and Alh on the hob threads, and AOg and A1g on the gear teeth. The points on the hob lie in the same transverse section and are evenly spaced, at angular intervals equal to the angular pitch. Of course, if the hob has only one thread, the angular pitch is 360 0 , and the points all coincide. On the other hand, the gear points do not lie in one transverse section, due to the feed of the hob in the direction of the gear axis, and each point is displaced axially a small amount relative to the next point. We now consider the position on the gear of point ANg , the cutting point when the hob has turned through Ng angular pitches. Since the gear is to have Ng teeth, points AOg and ANg must be on the same tooth. Hence, if the gear is a spur gear, ANg must lie on the axial line through AOg' while if the gear is a helical gear, ANg must lie on the gear helix through AOg. The distance through which the hob is fed during one revolution of the gear blank is called the feed rate f. Since the magnitude of f is small compared with the tooth dimensions, point ANg always lies close to the axial line through AOg. The gear blank must therefore turn through approximately one revolution while the hob turns through Ng angular pitches, which is a rotation equal to (Ng/Nh ) revolutions. In order to meet this requirement, the angular velocity ratio (wh/wg ) must be approximately equal to (Ng/Nh ), or exactly equal, when a spur gear is being cut. In the case of a helical gear, the small difference between the two ratios is one of the factors which determine the helix angle of the gear, as we will show later in this section. Once the settings are chosen for the hobbing machine, the value of (wh/wg ) is established, and the number of teeth that will be cut in the gear is then given by the following expression, NhWh Integer closest to (--) Wg (16.15) 462 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears Having found how the value of Ng depends on the hobbing machine angular velocities wh and wg ' we now consider the helix angle. If points AOg and A1g lie at radius R, the positions of these points at various times can be plotted on a developed cylinder of radius R, as shown in Figure 16.5. The times at which the hob touches points AOg and A1g are called T and T', and the diagram shows the positions of AOg at time T, and A1g at time T'. Since the feed of the hob is in the direction of the gear axis, the line in the diagram joining AOg and A1g is in the same direction. The diagram also shows the gear helices through these points, which appear as straight lines making an angle ~Rg with the gear axis, and these are labelled helix 0 and helix 1. The point on helix 0 in the transverse section through A1g is labelled Ag \u2022 The position of helix 0 at time T' is shown by the dotted line, and the positions of Aog and Ag at this time are shown as AOg and Ag \u2022 In Figure 16.5, the length AOgA1g represents the hob feed between the times T and T', and AgAg represents the arc Hobbing 463 length moved by point Ag in the same time interval. Since helix 0 and helix 1 are gear helices on adjacent teeth at the same radius, their positions at any instant are exactly one tooth pitch apart. A1g and Ag lie on the two helices in their positions at time T', so the distance between these points is equal to the transverse pitch. We therefore obtain the following expressions for the three lengths, A A' 9 9 A A' 19 9 The time interval required for the hob to rotate through one angular pitch can be expressed in terms of the hob angular velocity, T' - T We now use triangle AOgA1gAg to relate the three lengths, A A' - A A' 19 9 9 9 and when their values are substituted, we obtain the following relation between wh ' Wg and vh ' 211' vh -N-- tan l/IR hWh 9 ( 16.16) The feed rate f of the hob was defined earlier as the distance moved by the hob during one revolution of the gear blank. It is customary to express the feed velocity vh in terms of f, _f_ (211') Wg (16.17) and with this substitution, Equation (16.16) takes the following form, tan l/IRg 211'R ( 16.18) 464 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears The helix angle of the gear at radius R is expressed in terms of the lead Lg by Equation (13.31), tan IPRg and Equation (16.18) then becomes a relation giving the lead that will be cut in the gear, l(NhWh ) f - Ng Wg ( 16.19) The quantity (Ng/Lg) is equal to the reciprocal of the axial pitch, as we showed in Equation (13.36), and this can be expressed in terms of the helix angle IPsg by means of Equation (13.42), _1_ Pzg sin IPSg Pns (16.20) Hence, Equation (16.19) can be put into two alternative forms, giving either the axial pitch or the helix angle of the gear, _1_ Pzg l(NhWh ) f - Ng Wg (16.21 ) (16.22) It is an interesting result that, as we pointed out earlier, the helix angle cut in a gear is not affected by the shaft angle ~ of the hobbing machine. This angle is generally set equal to the standard shaft angle ~s' or in other words, equal to the sum of the helix angles of the gear and the hob, ~s (16.23) We showed in Chapter 15 that a pair of crossed helical gears can mesh correctly, even when the shaft angle is not equal to the standard shaft angle. It therefore follows that a hob can cut an accurate involute gear, even when ~ is not exactly equal to ~s. However, for the remainder of this section, we will assume that the shaft angle is set equal to ~s' and in a Hobbing 465 later section of the chapter we will discuss the consequences of a small change in this value. The last setting of the hobbing machine to be considered is the cutting center distance CC , and its effect on the tooth thickness of the gear. As we discussed earlier, the cutting process can be considered as equivalent to meshing with zero backlash. An expression for the normal backlash in a crossed helical gear pair was given in Equation (15.96), The length ~Cp Equation (15.47), in this expression (16.24) was defined by (16.25) and all the other quanti ties are defined on the pitch cylinders, as indicated by the notation. We are considering, at present, a hob cutting a gear blank when the shaft angle ~ is set equal to the standard value ~s. In this case the cutting pitch cylinders coincide with the standard pitch cylinders, as we proved in Chapter 15. If we replace RP1 and Rp2 in Equation (16.25) by Rsg and Rsh ' and set the backlash in Equation (16.24) equal to zero, these two equations give an expression for the normal tooth thickness cut in the gear, (16.26) The expression in brackets in this relation represents the hob offset. When the normal tooth thickness t h of the hob is ns equal to O.5Pns' Equation (16.26) has exactly the same form as Equation (16.12), which gave the normal tooth thickness of a gear cut by a rack cutter. If the normal tooth thickness of the hob is greater than O.5Pns' the normal tooth thickness of the gear is reduced by the same amount. Whatever the value of t nsh ' the effect of a change in the hob offset on the tooth thickness of the gear is identical to the corresponding effect caused by a change in the offset of a rack cutter. In Chapter 5, we stated that the tooth thickness of a gear cut by 466 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears a hob is generally calculated as if the gear were cut by a rac k cutter. We have now shown that thi s procedure is essentially correct, prpvided the hobbing machine is set with its shaft angle ~ equal to the standard value ~s' There is a second manner in which the cutting action of a hob resembles that of a rack cutter. In the discussion following Equations (15.74 and 15.77), we showed that the path of contact in a crossed helical gear pair touches each base cylinder, and makes an angle (~- 'tp1) with the line of centers, when viewed in the direction of the axis of gear 1. Hence, in the case of a hob cutting a gear, the path followed by the cutting point touches the base cylinders of the gear and the hob, and makes an angle (~- 'tpg) with the line of centers, when viewed in the direction of the gear axis. If the shaft angle is set at the standard value, this angle becomes (1[2 - 't ), as shown in Figure 16.6, and the path of the sg . cutting point then appears identical with the corresponding path when the gear is cut by a rack cutter. It is for this reason that, when we check for undercutting in a gear, we can regard the hob as equivalent to a rack cutter. We check that Swivel Angle 467 there would be no undercutting if the gear was cut by the rack cutter, and this implies that there will also be no undercutting when in fact the hob is used. Swi vel Angle Earlier in this chapter, we stated that it is common practice to specify the lead angle of a hob, instead of its helix angle. It is also customary to specify the angular setting of the hobbing machine by means of the swivel angle, rather than by the shaft angle. Since a hob is shaped like a screw, its helix angle is always large, particularly in the case of a single-thread hob, for which the helix angle is typically about 85\u00b0. The helix angle of the gear being cut may of course have any value, but in the majority of gears, the magnitude of the helix angle is between 0\u00b0 and 30\u00b0. In general, right-handed hobs are used to cut right-handed gears, and left-handed hobs are used for left-handed gears. In most cases, therefore, the shaft angle is approximately equal to a right angle, and the swivel angle is defined as the amount by which the shaft angle differs from a right angle. For example, if the axis of the gear is vertical during the cutting process, the swivel angle a is defined as the angle which the hob axis makes with the 468 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears horizontal. The standard shaft angle was defined by Equation (16.23), as the sum of the gear and the hob helix angles. We express the helix angle of the hob in terms of its lead angle, by means of Equation (16.13 or 16.14), and we obtain the following expression for the standard shaft angle, ,f, + 90\u00b0 - A \"'sg - sh (16.27) where the plus and minus signs refer to a right or Hobbing Machine Gear Train Layout 469 left-handed hob. We now define the standard swivel angle os' so that it differs by a right angle from the standard shaft angle, (16.28) As discussed earlier, the hobbing machine is generally set so that the shaft angle is equal to the standard shaft angle, and it then follows that the swivel angle is equal to the standard swivel angle. Figures 16.7 and 16.8 show the relations between the shaft angles and the swivel angles when a right-handed hob is used to cut a spur gear or a right-handed helical gear, while Figures 16.9 and 16.10 show the corresponding relations when a left-handed hob is used to cut a spur gear or a left-handed helical gear. Hobbing Machine Gear Train Layout We showed in Equations (16.15 and 16.22) that the number of teeth and the helix angle cut in a gear depend on the feed rate f and the angular velocity ratio (wh/wg ) in the hobbing machine, NhWh Integer closest to (----) Wg (16.29) 470 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears sin I/I sg l(NhWh ) f - Ng Wg (16.30) It is helpful to examine how the gear trains in some typical hobbing machines are arranged, in order to achieve the values of Ng and I/I sg required in the gear. One type of hobbing machine is shown schematically in Figure 16.11. The rectangular boxes in the diagram represent gear pairs or gear trains, with the output-input ratio in each case given by the constant k. The symbol ki stands for the ratio of the index change gears, kf is the ratio of the feed change gears, and the other k values represent the gear trains built into the machine, whose ratios cannot be altered by the user. The values of wh and wg , and of the hob feed velocity vh ' can be read from the diagram in terms of the input angular velocity w 1 ' (16.31) (16.32) Hobbing Machine Gear Train Layout 471 (16.33) The feed rate f was given by Equation (16.17), in terms of Wg and vh ' and when these are expressed by means of Equations (16.32 and 16.33), we obtain a relation between the feed rate and some of the gear ratios in the hobbing machine, f The terms in brackets are combined into a single constant, known as the machine feed constant Cf , whose value is provided by the manufacturer of the hobbing machine. The feed rate is then expressed solely as a function of the ratio kf of the feed change gears, f (16.34) To obtain the ratio (wh/wg ) in terms of the hobbing machine gear ratios, we express wh and Wg by means of Equations (16.31 and 16.32), As before, the terms in brackets are combined into another constant, the machine index constant Ci , whose value is also provided by the manufacturer, and the angular velocity ratio is then given by the following expression, C\u00b7 1 k.\" 1 (16.35) We substitute this expression into Equations (16.29 and 16.30), and we obtain the number of teeth that will be cut in the gear, and its helix angle, in terms of the hobbing machine gear ratios, NhC. Integer closest to ( __ l) k i (16.36) {16.37l We now determine how the machine ratios should be 472 Gear Cutting I I, Helical Gears chosen, in order to cut a gear with the number of teeth and helix angle required. The feed rate f and the hob angular velocity wh are chosen to obtain good metal-cutting characteristics. The values depend on the size of the hob, the hardness of the material being cut, and the surface finish required. For more details, the reader should consult references such as the Gear Handbook [2]. Once a value for f is. chosen, the required ratio kf for the feed change gears is found from Equation (16.34), f Cf (16.38) The value chosen for wh is obtained by setting the input speed change, shown in Figure 16.11, to a suitable value. With the feed change gear ratio already selected, the index change gear ratio is used to determine both the number of teeth cut in the gear, and its helix angle. We choose the ratio ki so that it satisfies Equation (16.37), in order to obtain the required helix angle, NhCi ki f sin ~Sg (16.39) (1rm + N ) n g When this value for ki is substituted into Equation (16.36), we find that we also obtain the correct number of teeth, because the magnitude of the term (f sin ~Sg/1rmn) in the expression for ki is always very much less than 0.5. It is sometimes difficult to find change gears which provide exactly the value of ki given by Equation (16.39). Once the change gears have been chosen, their actual ratio ki should be calculated, and this value is substituted into Equation (16.37), to give the helix angle that will in fact be cut in the gear. Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine There is one major problem associated with hobbing machines, when they are designed in the manner shown in Figure 16.11. If a second cut is required, as is often the case, it is necessary to disconnect the feed drive, in order Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine 473 to return the hob quickly to its starting position. It is then very difficult to reset the machine, with the work table and the hob in exactly the correct positions. This problem can be overcome if a differential is incorporated into the hobbing machine. In order to determine the relation that must be maintained between the hob feed, the work table rotation and the hob rotation, we once again consider Equation (16.30), We use Equation (16.17) to express the hob feed rate f in terms of the feed velocity vh ' and we obtain the relation which must be maintained throughout the cutting process between the hob feed velocity, the table angular velocity, and the hob angular veloci ty, (16.40) A gear train with one degree of freedom can always be represented by a linear equation relating the angular velocities of the input and the output shafts. A differential is a gear train with two degrees of freedom, and it has three shafts, either two input and one output, or one input and two output. The angular velocities of the three shafts are always related by a single linear equation. Hence, as we can see from Equation (16.40), if the hob feed, the work table drive and the hob drive were all connected to the three shafts of a suitable differential, they would then always maintain the correct relative positions. The differential may be a simple planetary gear train, or one which is constructed of bevel gears. In either case, the output angular velocity w3 is a linear combination of the input angular velocities w1 and w2 ' and can therefore be represented by the following equation, (16.41) The constants k7 and ka of the differential depend on the design of the gear train, and need not concern us here. 474 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears The complete layout of the hobbing machine is shown in Figure 16.12, where the differential is represented as a simple planetary gear train. The hob drive is connected to the sun gear of the differential, the table drive is connected to the planet carrier, and the feed is connected to the internal gear. As before, the index change gears and the feed change gears are represented by symbols ki and kf , and now there is a third set of change gears, the differential change gears, represented by the symbol kd \u2022 The constants k1 to k6 are the fixed ratios of the gear trains in the hobbing machine. The constant k6 represents the ratio of a worm and gear, connecting the differential change gears to the internal gear of the differential. This ratio is shown with a minus sign, since the hand of the helix in the worm is chosen so that a positive angular velocity in the worm produces a negative angular veloci ty in the gear. We pointed out earlier that the number of teeth and the helix angle cut in the gear depend on the feed rate f and the Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine 475 angular velocity ratio (wh/wg ). We therefore need to express these two quantities in terms of the hobbing machine gear ratios. We start by writing down a number of relations between the angular velocities, Wh k1w1 (16.42) Wg k2ki k3w3 (16.43) vh k2kik4kfw3 (16.44) w 2 k2kik4kfkd(-k6)w3 (16.45) The feed rate f, which was given by Equation (16.17), can now be expressed in terms of the gear ratios, f As before, the terms in brackets are combined into a single quantity, the machine feed constant Cf , and the feed rate is then given simply in terms of the feed change gear ratio, f (16.46) When Equations (16.42 and 16.43) are used to express wh and wg ' the angular velocity ratio takes the following form, wh k1w1 Wg k2k3kiw3 and the relation between w 1 and w3 is found from Equations (16.41 and 16.45), The last two equations are combined to give the angular velocity ratio in terms of the gear ratios, and we use Equation (16.46) to express the ratio kf in terms of the feed rate f, (16.47) 476 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears We now define the machine index constant Ci and the machine di fferent ial constant Cd as follows, C. 1 k1 k2 k3k7 k3 k7Cf k1k4 k6kS As usual, the values of the machine constants Cf ' Ci and Cd are all provided by the manufacturer of the hobbing machine. Ci is a ratio, but Cf and Cd are lengths, since they are defined in terms of the feed rate f, which is the distance moved by the hob during one revolution of the work table. When the constants are substituted into Equation (16.47), we obtain the final expression for the angular velocity ratio, (16.4S) This expression is substituted into Equations (16.29 and 16.30), and we obtain the number of teeth and the helix angle that will be cut in the gear, corresponding to the feed rate f and the change gear ratios ki and kd in the hobbing machine, C\u00b7 fkd Integer closest to [Nh(k: + c)] 1 d (16.49) (16.50) Once again, we must determine how the change gear ratios kf , k i and kd should be chosen, in order to cut a gear with Ng teeth and helix angle ~sg' As before, we choose the feed rate f from metal-cutting considerations, and the ratio kf is then given by Equation (16.46), (16.51) If we are cutting a spur gear, or in other words a gear with zero helix angle, we can satisfy Equation (16.50) by setting the value of kd equal to zero, and choosing the value of ki as follows, Use of a Differential in the Hobbing Machine k. 1 477 (16.52) The conventional method for cutting a helical gear is to use the same value for ki , and to choose kd in a manner which then satisfies Equation (16.50), Cd sin IPsg Nh '/I'mn (16.53) An alternative expression for the required differential change gear ratio is found by combining Equations (16.20 and 16.53), (16.54) When we compare the last two equations, it is clear that it is much easier to select suitable change gears, giving the correct value for kd , if we design the gear so that its axial pitch Pzg is a round number, rather than its helix angle IPsg. There are times when it is difficult, or even impossible, to find change gears which provide the exact values for ki and kd , given by Equations (16.52 and 16.53). For example, when the value required for Ng is a large prime number, we cannot obtain the exact value for ki , since most sets of change gears do not contain gears with more than 120 teeth. Also, when the helix angle ~sg is very small, it may be difficult to obtain a sufficiently accurate value for kd \u2022 When these situations occur, we can choose the index gears so that their ratio ki differs slightly from the value given by Equation (16.52), and the differential change gears are then used to ensure that Equation (16.50) is still satisfied with sufficient accuracy. Since the index change gear ratio is close to the value given by Equation (16.52), it can be represented by an expression with the following form, k. 1 (16.55) where the quantity ~ may be either positive or negative. This expression for ki is substituted into Equation (16.50), and we obtain the corresponding value of the differential change gear ratio required to cut the correct helix angle, 478 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears (16.56) We have determined the values of ki and kd in a manner that satisfies Equation (16.50), so we know that the correct helix angle will be cut. It is now necessary to substitute the values of ki and kd into Equation (16.49), in order to confirm that the gear will also be cut with the correct number of teeth. The expressions for ki and kd given by Equations (16.55 and 16.56) are substituted into the right-hand side of Equation (16.49), with the following result, (16.57) As we pointed earlier, the magni tude of the term (f sin ~sg/wmn) is always less than 0.5, so with these values of ki and kd , the number of teeth cut in the gear will indeed be equal to the number required. The change gear ratios given be Equations (16.55 and 16.56) can be used for cutting either helical or spur gears, whenever it is difficult to obtain the values given by Equations (16.52 and 16.53). It is interesting that the quantity a has cancelled out from the expression in Equation (16.57). This means that there is no theoretical limit to the value of a which can be used, and the ratio ki may therefore differ considerably from the value given by Equation (16.52). In practice, however, it is usually easier to select the differential change gears to obtain an accurate value for kd , if the index gears are chosen so that their ratio is close to the value given by Equation (16.52), and the magnitude of a is therefore small compared wi th 1. It is evident that a differential is useful in the design of a hobbing machine, since it facilitates the selection of the necessary change gears. However, the original purpose for which the differential was introduced, as we discussed earlier in the chapter, was to maintain the correct relation between the hob feed, the work table rotation and the hob rotation, during a rapid return of the hob to its starting position. Figure 16.13 shows how this purpose is achieved. The drive is disconnected, by means of a dog clutch, between the feed change gears and the feed drive. An auxiliary motor, Theoretically Correct Shape for the Hob Thread 479 known as the hob rapid traverse motor, is then used to drive the hob feed. The drive passes through the di fferent ial, causing the work table to turn at exactly the correct speed, so that the helical teeth in the gear mesh continuously with the threads of the hob. During the entire return motion of the hob, only a very small rotation of the table is required, compared with the many revolutions that take place while the gear is being cut. Hence, the return of the hob can be carried out quite quickly, without damage to the gearing driving the work table. Theoretically Correct Shape for the Hob Thread We stated in Chapter 5 that a hob whose thread profile is straight-s;ded in the normal section will not cut exact involute tooth profiles. We are now in a position to estimate the amount of error, and to determine the correct normal 480 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears profile in the hob thread. In Chapter 15, we proved that two involute helical gears can mesh with crossed axes, and maintain a constant angular velocity ratio. The hobbing process is essentially the same as the meshing of a pair of crossed helical gears. It therefore follows that, in order to cut correct involute profiles in the gear, the thread of the hob must also have the shape of an involute helicoid. In other words, the thread has an involute profile in the transverse section. The corresponding profile in the normal section is a convex curve, and not a straight line. However, because the helix angle of a hob is so large, the profile in the normal section is extremely close to the straight line. Hence, when a straight-sided hob is used to cut gears, the resulting error in the gear tooth profiles is generally small. We can estimate this error in the following manner. We described a method in Chapter 13 for calculating the profile of the normal section through a helicoid. We now use this method to find the profile of the normal section through the hob thread. We calculate the distances, at the thread tip and at the top of the fillet, between this profile and its tangent at the standard pitch cylinder, as shown in Figure 16.14. The profile of a straight-sided hob would coincide with this tangent, and a hob of that type would therefore cut too deeply into the teeth of the gear, in the regions near the fillet and near the tip. Figure 16.15 shows the normal section through an Effect of a Non-Standard Shaft Angle 481 exact involute helicoid tooth, and it also shows the profile we obtain when the gear is cut by a straight-sided hob. The maximum differences between the two profiles are approximately equal to the distances described earlier, by which the normal section profile of the involute hob deviates from the straight line. As we can see in Figure 16.15, the tooth shape cut by a straight-sided hob is similar to the shape of a tooth cut with tip and root relief. The errors caused by the use of a straight-sided hob are therefore sometimes beneficial, and this is one of the reasons for the continued use of straight-sided hobs, when true involute hobs are also readily obtainable. There are times, however, when the errors caused by straight-sided hobs may be excessive. This is often the case for gears cut by multi-thread hobs, or by single-thread hobs of large module, whose helix angles are usually less than 85\u00b0. Whenever there is a possibility that a straight-sided hob may cut too much tip and root relief in a gear, the procedure just described can be used to determine whether a true involute hob should be used. Effect of a Non-Standard Shaft Angle In an earlier section of this chapter, we described how to calculate the tooth thickness cut in a gear, when the shaft angle ~ of the hobbing machine is set equal to the standard value ~s. We stated at that time that we would still obtain a 482 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears correct involute profile in the gear tooth, even if the values of E and Es wer~ not the same. The only effect of the altered shaft angle is a change in the tooth thickness, and we will now discuss briefly how the new tooth thickness can be found. Since it is not generally necessary to make this calculation, we will simply outline the steps, without presenting all the equations. When the shaft angle is not equal to its standard value, the cutting pitch cylinders of the gear and the hob do not coincide with their standard pitch cylinders. The first step is therefore to calculate the cutting pitch cylinder radii R~g and R~h. Knowing the normal thread thickness t nsh of the hob at its standard pitch cylinder, we then calculate its normal thread thickness t nph at the cutting pitch cylinder. To find the normal tooth thickness cut in the gear, we regard the hobbing process as the meshing of a crossed helical gear pair with zero backlash. An expression was given in Equation (15.96) for the normal backlash in a crossed helical gear pair, The length ~cp in this equation was defined by Equation (15.47), as the difference between the center distance and the sum of the pitch cylinder radii. For the situation of a hob cutting a gear, ~cp would represent the difference between the cutting center distance and the sum of the cutting pitch cylinder radii, We combine these equations, and set the backlash Bn equal to zero, to obtain the normal tooth thickness t npg cut in the gear. The final step is to calculate the corresponding normal tooth thickness t nsg of the gear at its standard pi tch cylinder. If we carry out this calculation, we will find that the normal tooth thickness t nsg cut in the gear is almost independent of the shaft angle E. In other words, the tooth thickness is hardly affected by a small change in the shaft Geometric Design of a Helical Gear Pair 483 angle, provided of course that the cutting center distance is left unchanged. However, the radii of the cutting pitch cylinders are very sensitive to the shaft angle value. In particular, a small change in the value of ~ can move the cutting pitch cylinder of the hob right off the surface of the hob thread. In the absence of experimental evidence, it is not certain what effect this may have on the tooth surface quality. Therefore, although the shaft angle need not theoretically be set equal to its standard value, it is nevertheless recommended that in practice this value should continue to be used. Geometric Design of a Helical Gear Pair In the final section of this chapter, we outline a procedure by which we can choose the helix angle, the profile shift values and the gear blank diameters, for a pair of helical gears intended to mesh on parallel shafts at an arbi trary center di stance C. Since the standard center distance depends on the helix angle, (16.58) it would appear that we can always choose the helix angle so that the standard center distance Cs is equal to the center distance C. In this case, the pitch cylinder of each gear would coincide with its standard pitch cylinder. However, as we will show, it is not always practical to choose the helix angle in this manner, and there is no particular advantage in doing so. When the gears are cut by a pinion cutter, the helix angle of each gear is equal to that of the cutter, so the choice of ~s is limited by the cutters that are available. When a rack cutter is used to cut the gears, the cutter veloci ty v r and the gear blank angular veloci ty must be related by Equation (16.11), 484 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears This equation must be satisfied exactly, because an incorrect value for vr would result in uneven spacing of the teeth on the gear. However, when ~s is chosen so that Cs is equal to C, it may be impossible to find change gears giving the exact relation between vr and wg \u2022 In general, it is probably easiest to obtain the required helix angle when the gear is cut by a hob, and the differential change gear ratio is given by either Equation (16.53) or Equation (16.56). Even in this case, it may be difficult to find a set of change gears giving a sufficiently small error. The effort required is seldom justified, because a gear pair can be designed quite satisfactorily, assuming only that Cs is approximately equal to C. The procedure is essentially the same as the one described in Chapter 6, for the design of a spur gear pair. For the reasons just outlined, it is generally best to choose the helix angle ~s so that the gears can be cut wi thout difficulty, and at the same time the standard center distance Cs is slightly less than the center distance C. The value of Cs should lie within the range given by Equation (6.14), C (16.59) The design procedure now consists in the choice of suitable profile shift values, and the gear blank diameters, in order to obtain the backlash required, and adaquate values for the working depth and the clearances at each root cylinder. We consider the meshing geometry in a transverse plane, and the design steps are then identical to those used in the design of a spur gear pair. For a helical gear pair, it is customary to specify the normal backlash Bn' rather than the circular backlash B. It is therefore necessary to calculate a number of the gear parameters in the transverse plane, before we can consider the transverse plane geometry. The values of mt' Rs1 ' ~ts' Rb1 , Rp1 ' ~p' ~tP' Ptp' and Bare found from Equations (13.148, 13.150, 13.151, 13.152, 14.28, 14.7, 14.8, 14. 10 and 14.72).

We use the method described in Chapter 6, and in particular Equations (6.45 - 6.53), to carry out the necessary steps. Since the procedure was explained in Chapter 6, the equations will be presented here with very little explanation. We start by writing down the transverse tooth thicknesses at the pi tch cylinders, 1 2\"(Ptp-B) + tlttp (16.69) 1 2\"(Ptp -B) - tlttp (16.70) where tlttp is a quantity chosen by the designer, to increase the tooth thickness in one gear, and reduce it in the other. The next four equations are given for gear 1 only, since the corresponding equations for gear 2 are found by interchanging the subscripts 1 and 2. t ttsl R [.:..!E..!. + 2(inv tP tp - invtl>ts\u00bb) (16.71) s 1 Rpl 1 tI> (tts11 (16.72) e 1 2 tan 2\"1Tmt ) ts bs1 a r - e 1 (16.73) 486 Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears b + R - R sl p1 sl (16.74) The addendum values ap1 and ap2 are chosen to give a working depth of 2.0mn , and equal clearances at each root cylinder, mn - ~(bp1 - bp2 ) 1 mn + 2(bp1 - bp2 ) (16.75) (16.76) And finally, we obtain the diameters of the two gear blanks, (16.77) (16.78) Once the dimensions of the gear pair are all chosen, the designer should of course check, as in the design of a spur gear pair, that there is no interference or undercutting, and that the contact ratio, the root cylinder clearances, and the tip cylinder tooth thicknesses are all adaquate. Gear Cutting II, Helical Gears 487 Numerical Examples Example 16. 1 A 55-tooth helical gear with normal module 4 mm, normal pressure angle 20 0 and helix angle 30 0, is to be cut with a normal tooth thickness of 6.915 mm.

The differential ratio can be achieved with good accuracy by two gear pairs, having ratios of (24/66) and (59/69). It is not always easy, however, to find change gears which give the required ratio. In the case described in this example, it would have been simpler if the gear pair had been designed with an axial pitch of 40 mm, in which case the required differential change gear ratio would have been exactly (25/80). Example 16.3 When lead screws and other transfer mechanisms are converted from inches to mms, it is sometimes necessary to introduce a factor of 25.4 into their drives. This factor requires a gear with 127 teeth, which is difficult to cut using conventional change gear ratios, because 127 is a prime number, and most sets of change gears do not contain gears with more than 120 teeth. Use Equations (16.55 and 16.56) to choose the ratios to cut a 127-tooth spur gear wi th a single-thread hob, when the hobbing machine has a feed rate of 0.020 inches, and the machine constants Ci and Cd are 24 and 0.5 inches.

Chapter 17 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears Introduction The calculation of the tooth stresses in a helical gear is considerably more complicated than the corresponding calculat ion for a spur gear. The contact stress and the fillet stress in each tooth depend on the intensity of the load, and on its position. Since the load intensity varies, as the position of the contact line moves up or down the tooth face, it is not easy to decide when the maximum stresses will occur. As we pointed out in Chapter 11, we consider in this book only the static stresses that would occur if the gears were not rotating. The actual stresses that exist in normal operation are found by multiplying the static stresses by various factors, to account for dynamic effects, type of loading, and so on. Values for these factors are given in the AGMA Standard referred to in Chapter 11 [6]. The method described in this chapter for calculating the static stresses is based on the AGMA method, but differs from it in certain respects. A summary of the differences will be presented at the end of the chapter. Tooth Contact Force In a helical gear pair, there are generally several tooth pairs which are simultaneously in contact. The contact in each tooth pair takes place along a straight line, which coincides with one of the generators in each tooth. In order to calculate the tooth stresses, we assume that the load intensity w is constant along all the contact lines. The value 490 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears of w at any instant is then equal to the total contact force W, divid.d by the total contact length Lc' w (17.1) In this section of the chapter, we determine the value of W, corresponding to any specified value of the applied torque. And in the following section, we will describe how to calculate the contact length Lc. The direction n~ of the normal to the tooth surface at A, when A is a point on the contact line, was given by Equation (14.94), n~ = cos \"'b [sin t/ltp nx(O) + cos t/ltp ny(O)] - sin \"'b nz(O) (17.2) In the absence of friction, the contact force acts in the direction opposite to n~, and its component parallel to the gear axis is therefore (w sin \"'b). Hence, the component perpendicular to the gear axis, which is the useful component, is equal to (W cos \"'b) \u2022 The base cylinder of gear 1 is shown in Figure 17.1, with Contact Length 491 the plane of action of the contact force touching the base cylinder. The diagram also shows the component of the contact force perpendicular to the gear axis. We take moments about the axis, to obtain a relation between the applied torque M1 and the contact force W, (17.3) and we use the same method to find the corresponding relation between the contact force and the torque M2 appl ied to gear 2, (17.4) The contact force is found from either of these equations. By combining the two equations, we obtain a relation between M1 and M2 , which is the same as Equation (11.3), the corresponding relation between the torques applied to a pair of spur gears. (17.5) Contact Length As we stated earlier, there generally several tooth pairs in contact at any instant, and the contact length Lc is the sum of the contact lengths on each of these tooth pairs. In this section, we will derive a general expression for Lc' It turns out that we do not often need to make use of the general expression, since the cases required for the stress analysis are always special, and therefore simpler. However, it is a matter of interest to have the general result, and it also helps to determine when the maximum and minimum values of Lc occur. A transverse section through the gear pair is shown in Figure 17.2, with the plane of action touching the two base cylinders. As usual, the ends T1 and T2 of the path of contact are the points where the tip cylinders intersect the plane of action. Figure 17.3 shows the plane of action, with the axial lines through T1 and T2 meeting the transverse plane z=O at T10 and T20 , and meeting the transverse plane z=F at T1F and T2F \u2022 The region of contact is the rectangle T10T20T2FT1F. We stated in Chapter 14 that the lines of contact on the different contacting tooth pairs can be represented by a set of diagonal lines in the region of contact, each making an angle \"'b with the gear axis, and with a vertical spacing equal to the transverse base pi tch Ptb. To find the length of the contact lines in the rectangle, it is helpful to construct two additional triangles T'T 10T1F and T10T\"T20 , as shown in Figure 17.3. The value of Lc is then found as the length of the diagonal lines in triangle T' T\"T 2F' minus the lengths in triangles T'T 10T1F and T10T\"T20 \u2022 We proved in Chapter 14 that the lengths T' T 1 F and T 1 F T 2F are equal to mFPtb and mpptb' where mF and mp are the face contact ratio and the profile contact ratio, given by Equations (14.68 and 14.64), _1_ Ptb F tan \"'b (17.6) Contact Length 493 The plane of action. In addition, the length T'T2F is equal to mcptb' where mc is the total contact ratio, equal to the sum of mF and mp , (17.8) In order to find the value of Lc' we first consider a general triangle of height mPtb' where m can represent any of the contact ratios me' mF or mp. This triangle is shown in Figure 17.4, and the upper contact line is shown in a typical position, lying a vertical distance ePtb below the top corner of the triangle, where e is any number between 0 and 1. The number of contact lines in the triangle is equal to 494 Tooth Stresses in Hel ical Gears (n +1), where n represents the integral part of the number e e (m-e). If e is greater than m, there are no contact lines in the triangle, and the value required for ne is -1. We therefore define a function, n int(f) (17.9) where f is any number, and n is the largest integer which is less than or equal to f. If, for example, f has the values 2.2, 1.0 and -0.3, the corresponding values of n are 2, 1 and -1. The val ue of n e can then be expressed by the funct ion, n e int(m-e) (17.10) In the triangle shown in Figure 17.4, the upper contact line has a length (m-w)ptb/sin ~b' The next contact line is shorter than the first by Ptb/sin ~b' and so on. The total contact length Le can therefore be expressed as an arithmetic series, whose sum is given by the following expression, (17.11) We now apply this result to the three triangles in If we use this method to calculate the contact length Lc for various values of e, we will find the following results. Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 495 The value of L is always a minimum when e is zero, and a c contact line passes through the upper corner T10 of the region of contact. And the value of L is a maximum when e is equal to c [mF - int(mF)], and a contact line passes through the other upper corner T1F of the contact region. Minimum and Maximum Values of Lc For the purpose of the stress analysis, we would expect to be most interested in the minimum value of Lc' since this corresponds to the maximum load intensity. Now that we know that the contact length is a minimum when a contact line passes through T10 , it is possible to find simpler expressions for the value Lcmin \u2022 We can simplify the expressions further, if we consider only gear pairs in which every transverse section has either one or two contact points. This condition means that the profile contact ratio lies between the following limits, < 2 (17.16) and this range includes all gear pairs of normal design. In the transverse section shown in Figure 17.2, there are two points Q and Q' marked on the plane of action. Point Q lies a distance Ptb below T l' and Q' lies a distance Ptb above T2\u2022 If the diagram represented a spur gear pair, Q and Q' would be the points on the path of contact corresponding to the ends of the period of single-tooth contact. In a helical gear pair, there is generally no period of single-tooth contact, because the total contact ratio mc is usually larger than 2. However, Q and Q' would represent the ends of the period of single-tooth contact in any particular transverse section, and it is therefore still customary to refer to these points as the end points of single-tooth contact. The region of contact is shown again in Figure 17.5, with the axial lines through Q and Q' cutting the transverse plane z=O a~ QO and QQ' and cutting the transverse plane z=F at QF and Qp.. We have stated that the value of Lc is a minimum when a contact line passes through point T 10. There must simultaneously be a second contact line through QO' since the distance between T10 and QO is equal to the transverse base pitch Ptb' Due to the symmetry of the rectangle, we can also argue that Lc is again a minimum when there are contact lines through T 2F and QF' We now consider a particular gear pair, with the contact lines shown in Figure 17.5. One contact line passes through point T10 , while a second line starts at QO' and intersects the plane z=F at point AF , somewhere between QF and QF' For this situation to be possible, the length mFPtb must be less than (2-mp)ptb' as we can see from the diagram. Such a gear pair is therefore defined by the condition, (17.17) and will be referred to as a very low face contact ratio (VLFCR) gear pair. A spur gear pair, in which the face contact ratio is zero, would fit into this category. The condition given by Equation (17.17) is equivalent to the statement that the total contact ratio mc is less than 2. This means that there are periods of the meshing cycle when only one tooth pair is in contact, which is the situation shown in Figure 17.5. The contact length Lcmin for this case can be read directly from the diagram, L . cmln F cos \"'b (17.18) Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 497 The same region of contact is shown in Figure 17.6, but the contact line has moved up, so that it now passes through point Qp., and a new contact line is about to enter the region at T2F \u2022 During the period when the contact line moves between the positions of Figures 17.5 and 17.6, there is only one tooth pair in contact, and the contact length Lc remains constant, with the value equal to Lcmin given by Equation (17.18). The region of contact for a second gear pair is shown in Figure 17.7. The contact line which starts at QO now intersects the plane z=F at a point between QF and T1F \u2022 The face contact ratio must lie wi thin the following range, 498 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears < (17.19) and this type of gear pair will be described as a low face contact ratio (LFCR) gear pair. We know that the contact length is at its minimum value, since one contact line passes through T10 \u2022 To calculate the value of Lcmin ' we take the length of the contact line through QO' and we add the length of the short contact line near T2F , L . cmln F cos 1/Ib + Ptb (m +m -2) sin 1/Ib F P The expression is simplified if we use Equation (17.6) to express Ptb in terms of F, L . cmln (17.20) Lastly, we consider gear pairs in which the face contact ratio is greater than 1, > (17.21) Gear pairs that fall within this category are known as normal helical gear pairs, since most helical gear pairs are designed with a face contact ratio larger than 1. The region of contact for a gear pair of this type is shown in Figure 17.8, with the contact lines in the positions Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc 499 corresponding to the minimum contact length. Starting from the left, there is one contact line passing through QQ' then there are a number of complete contact lines stretching from the bottom edge to the top edge of the region, and finally there are either one or two lines which intersect the right-hand edge. To find the value of Lcmin' we consider in turn each of the three groups of contact lines just described. We start by defining two new quantities nc and nF , as the integer parts of mc and mF , (17.22) (17.23) The number of contact lines crossing the upper edge of the region is nF , which means that the number of complete lines is (nF-1). The total number of contact lines is nc ' so the number crossing the right-hand edge is (nc-nF). Hence, the contact length Lcmin is found as follows, L . cmln Ptb \u2022\u2022 1. [1 + mp (nF-1) + (m -n ) + (m -n +l)(n -nF-1)] sIn \"'b c c c c c The result is then simplified, and expressed in terms of the face-width F, L . cmln 500 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears We pointed out earlier that the maximum load intensity on a gear tooth corresponds to the minimum contact length, and for this reason we derived expressions for Lcmin ' However, as we will show later in this chapter, the fillet stress is often a maximum when the contact line passes through the corner T1F of the contact region, and this occurs when the load intensity is a minimum. We therefore also need expressions for Lcmax ' the maximum contact length. Minimum and Maximum Values for Lc lie in the following range, < The contact length is again the sum of the two lengths, and, as usual, we express the result in terms of F, 5{)1 (17.27) 502 Tooth Stresses in Helical Gears lower edge of the region is then equal to (nFP+2), and the total number of contact lines in the region is (nF+2). Hence, the number of complete contact lines is (nFP+1), and the number of lines crossing the left-hand edge of the region is (nF-nFP)' By considering the three groups of contact lines described earlier, we-obtain the following expression for the contact length, As before, we simplify this result, and express Lcmax in terms of F, Contact Stress In the last section of Chapter 14, we proved that when A is a contact point between a rack and a pinion, the line of contact through A and the common normal at A both, lie in the plane of action. The same is true when A is a contact point between a pair of helical gears. To prove this statement, we need only consider the imaginary rack between the gears, and make use of the result just stated, first for one gear and the imaginary rack, and then for the second gear and the imaginary rack.

This configuration can also be used for the sensing of ultrasmall magnetic fields, achieved by means of measuring the inductive response of the coil when the core is subjected to an alternating current (Figure 9a). Sensing of the magnetic field in this configuration relies on the off-diagonal giant magneto impedance effect (OD-GMI),[118\u2013120] and achieving a strong OD-GMI response (Figure 9b) requires that the magnetization of the core possesses a transversal anisotropy, or in other words, should be oriented along the windings of the coil (Figure 9c). The tubular shape provides the means to achieve such a magnetization, as the stress and the continuous curvature of the ferromagnetic layer integrated within the self-assembled tube alters the magnetic anisotropy of a properly tuned ferromagnetic material. These effects are readily observable in magnetic structures where static magnetization and magnetization dynamics of thin ferromagnetic tubes are affected by the curvature (Figure 9d),[121\u2013125] and this behavior in self-assembled tubular structures has been demonstrated to reveal a direct effect of the self-assembly process on the functionality of the GMI device as well.[11] By placing a thin permalloy (Ni81Fe19) layer between two patterned conducting elements, self-coiled on-chip GMI devices with integrated pick-up coils were fabricated (Figure 9e,f). The self-assembly process alters the geometry of the ferromagnetic layer, changing the inherent anisotropy into the desired azimuthal magnetization that lends itself to a strong change in the GMI effect compared to its planar counterpart. The effect was clearly observed by measuring the voltage response of the inductor generated by an axial component of the ferromagnetic material\u2019s alternating magnetic flux in response to an external axial magnetic field.

Directions of the unit vectors.", "texts": [ " The purpos~ of these relations will become clear in the remaining chapters, where we di scuss the meshing, the cutt ing, and the tooth strength of helical gears. There were a number of sections in the first part of this book where vectors were employed to help in the explanation of some aspects of spur gear geometry. However, the use of vectors was not very widespread, because spur gear geometry is essentially two-dimensional, and vector theory is not often required. On the other hand, the geometry of a helical gear is three-dimensional, and vectors can be very helpful in clarifying the various proofs and explanations. Figure 13.2 shows a typical spur gear and rack, with two sets of unit vectors included in the drawing. One set, n x ' ny and n z ' are fixed in the spur gear, with nz in the direction of the gear axis. When the gear rotates about its axis, the direction of n z will not be affected, but the directions of nx A Note on the Use of Vectors 307 and ny will obviously change. The other set, n~, n~ and n S' are said to be fixed in space, which simply means that their directions do not change. The unit vector n~ is chosen perpendicular to the plane formed by the tips of the rack teeth, in the direction from the gear towards the rack", " When a spur gear is meshed with a rack, the axis of the gear is parallel with the teeth of the rack, so the two unit vectors nz and nS are parallel. It should be noted that a unit vector is used only to specify a direction. Since the rack does not rotate, it makes no difference whether we regard a unit vector as fixed in space, or as fixed in the rack. Hence, the three vectors n~, n~ and n S' which we originally described as fixed in space, can equally well be thought of as fixed in the rack. The two vectors nz and nS are shown in Figure 13.2 by counter-clockwise circular arrows, and these are used in conformi ty with the right-hand rule from the theory of vectors. According to this rule, a vector can correspond to a sense of rotation, using the following convention. The right hand is held so that the fingers point in the required sense 308 Tooth Surface of a Helical Involute Gear of rotation, and the thumb then points in the direction of the vector. The circular arrows in Figure 13.2 therefore indicate that the vectors point in the direction upwards out of the drawing. The spur gear and the rack are being viewed in the negative nS direction. A clockwise circular arrow would mean that the vector points downwards into the drawing. It will be the general pract ice, throughout Part 2 of thi s book, to include in each diagram a unit vector represented by a circular arrow, in order to specify the direction of the view being taken. The spur gear and rack of Figure 13.2 are shown again in The Basic Helical Rack 309 The Basic Helical Rack Figure 13.5 shows the basic helical rack, used to define the tooth surface of a helical gear. Just as the basic rack of a spur gear has teeth which are straight-sided, the basic rack in Figure 13.5 has teeth whose faces are flat planes. The angle between the gear axis and the direction of the rack teeth is shown as ~r' and it is called the basic rack helix angle.

The most commonly used method for cutting helical gears is by hobbing. As always in generating cutting, one gear is used to cut another.

Besides, the shielding gas and the temperature of the building substrate are prepared to meet the requirements before the laser supply power turns on. The oxygen content in the chamber is set below 0.4% (4000 ppm), which is kept consistent in each experiment. The power energy consumption of the pre-processing stage, including preparing gas and temperature condition, is not considered since this part of the energy is steady and close to each other in all experiments [4].

During the SLM processing, the preheating system works intermittently. It is also possible that the peaks are due to the low sampling rate of 1 Hz.

In 1881, a gyratory crusher (Fig. 5.22) was invented and built by an American, Philters Gates (Lynch and Rowland 2005). A gyratory crusher (cone crusher) applies continuous crushing action, therefore is more productive than jaw crushers which have intermittent crushing action.

A classic fluid mechanics system which exhibits preturbulent chaos is the flow between two rotating cylinders (called Taylor-Couette flow) shown in Figure 3-37. Much work has been done on this system (e.g., see Swinney, 1983, for a review). This flow is sensitive to the Reynolds number R = (b \u2014 a^a^LJv and the ratios b/a and fl^/fl,, where the latter is the quotient of the outer cylinder rotation rate to the inner as well as the boundary conditions on the ends.

The slope values at small c reflect instrumentation noise, while the values at large c are those for which the size of the covering sphere or hypercube reaches the scale of the attractor. Using such techniques, one can determine how the fractal dimension changes as some control parameter in the experiment is varied. For example, in the case of Taylor-Couette flow (see Figure 3-37), Swinney and coworkers have measures the change in d as a function of the Reynolds number (Figure 6-16; see Swinney, 1985).

The link compliances were identified on the basis of CAD models and FEA methods. For each link, a local frame is established with the origin and directions as shown in Fig. 1 . FEA-based virtual experiments are conducted in the software ABAQUS to identify the compliance parameters of each link with respect to their local frames [43 \u201345] . Data for FEA is extracted from product specifications and typical materials properties. The compliance matrices of all six links are identified as listed in Table 2 .

The dimensional parameters of the robotic manipulator are shown in Table 3 . The mass of each link is given in Table 4 , and the locations of the corresponding mass centers are given in Table 5 . Table 6 lists the parameters of the gravity compensator. The configuration shown in Fig. 1 is defined as the initial configuration where the movements of all joints are zero. All the data are extracted or estimated from the product specifications or the 3D model. According to Eq. (21) , the balancing force generated by the gravity compensator is plotted in Fig. 10 . The force is exerted by the piston rod on link 2. It shows that force varies with \u03b82 (-40 \u00b0 \u2264 \u03b82 \u2264 110 \u00b0), and the minimum balancing force appears when \u03b82 is zero.

The high-resolution neutron diffraction residual stress measurements agreed very well to the simulation results. The developed models can be used on typical desktop computers and can provide predictions of distortion and residual stresses that are sufficiently accurate for practical applications.

As seen above, an iterative approach was used to match the measured and simulated temperature profiles. Fig. 8 shows the experimental thermal readings at stations T1, T2, T4 and T6 (shown in Fig. 1). Two trial simulations were compared to the temperature readings for calibration of the gap conductance value. Generally, both gap conductance values result in good agreement with the measured values.

In describing the results obtained I shall refer to the former interval as the 'least interval for muscular summation,' since no stronger stimulus could give muscular summation at a shorter interval; the other interval I shall call the 'time of recovery' of the nerve for the chosen strenath of stimulus, since it involves no factor other than the strength of stimulus and the rate of recovery of the nerve", " 6, in which recovery was complete, is to be taken as evidence that the threshold is affected by the alcohol before conductivity is impaired. 494 It should be noticed that the difference observed here is one of three minutes only, and the observations of each quantity cannot be made at intervals of time less than two to four minutes in an experiment involving also observations on the rate of recovery. In order to get more evidence on this point I made a series of experiments in which the least interval for muscular summation and the threshold current-strength were the only quantities observed. The trough used (Fig. 16) had an alcohol chamber 30 mm. long, whereas that used in the experiments just described was 18-5mm. long; the greater length of the narcotised nerve would make a small decrement easier to detect. The method was otherwise identical with that of the other experiments in which a 0/0 alcohol in Ringer's solution was used. Before each experiment began the recovery curve was mapped out for the preparation in Ringer's solution (as in Fig. 9), so that the stimulus chosen for measuring the least interval for muscular summation might be of the correct strength to fall on the vertical part of the curve", " We measured the least interval for muscular suimmnation first with two stimuli applied to the same point on a frog's sciatic nerve, and then with the first stimulus applied at a point about 15 mm. distant from that on which the second fell.

A third precaution is that there must be two separate platinum coils (as at D and E in Fig. 16) for leading the current into the central chamber.

The reconstructed build model was aligned to the CAD model based on some shared features like fixed bottom surface. After the best alignment was obtained, the software could compare deviations between the aligned surfaces and provide displacement distribution as the result. Taking the case of volume density 0.19 as the example, the displacements in the build direction obtained by the detailed simulation, the homogenization-based simulation, and experimental measurement are shown in Fig. 16 for comparison. The maximum displacements in the build direction are 0.46, 0.45 and 0.43mm in the Fig. 16(a)\u223c(c), respectively. These results show that the simulation based on homogenized inherent strains and material properties is in good agreement with the detailed simulation and experiment. Uncertainty of such experimental measurement mainly comes from device measurement resolution and large gap size between walls. For thin-walled lattice structures with low volume density like 0.19 as shown in Fig. 16(c), the scanned point cloud data could be affected by the large hollow features between thin walls. It is difficult to precisely reconstruct the thin walls given that the thickness is just 0.1mm on average and scanning resolution is around 0.075mm. It was noted that the laser beam could only scan partially inside of the hollow tubes in the low-density lattice structures. This causes larger error when the reconstructed point cloud model is aligned to a solid block model to compare the deviation. As a result, the experimentally measured residual displacement field shows significant fluctuation on the top surface caused by the hollow features between thin walls. The significant negative displacement values in Fig. 16(c) are not real. Due to this issue discussed above, a local surface with much lower position was reconstructed in the software. When compared to the solid CAD model, that local surface caused an irregularly large negative displacement in that area. This irregular issue should have been avoided by re-scanning the sample to obtain raw data with better quality. Fortunately, only one irregular local area was found in the experimental results and it was not on the center line, and hence we were able to extract useful data along the center line to validate the displacement prediction", " 9 are employed in the layer-by-layer simulation with the accordingly updated homogenized elastic modulus for the homogenized cantilever beam model in order to compare with already presented results. The comparison shows insignificant difference between the predicted residual deformations with and without considering uncertainty. A likely reason is that small fluctuation in inherent strain vector does not cause much change in residual stress level when a nearly ideal elasto-plastic material model is used as the homogenized model. Both Fig. 16(a) and (b) show results obtained from layer-by-layer simulation. The difference between the two figures is that Fig. 16(a) is based on half-scale simulation with local features like thin walls modeled explicitly, while Fig. 16(b) is based on the homogenized model. Simulation result gives very smooth distribution of residual displacement as seen in Fig. 16(a) and 16(b). However, in experimental measurement, the metal build was 3D-scanned that resulted in some point cloud data. The build was then reconstructed based on the obtained points given relative distance between each other. For thin-walled lattice structures with low volume density of 0.19 as shown in Fig. 16(c), the scanned point cloud data could be affected by the large hollow features between thin walls. It is difficult to precisely scan and reconstruct the thin walls given that the thickness is just 0.1mm on average. This uncertainty issue has been mentioned above. As a result, the experimentally measured residual displacement field shows significant fluctuation on top surface caused by those hollow features between thin walls as shown in Fig. 16(c). This explains why the residual displacement field of the experimental measurement in Fig. 16(c) is somewhat different from Fig. 16(a) and (b). The same explanation holds for Fig. 17, especially between Fig. 17(a) and (d). As volume density increases, this issue in experimental measurement is alleviated a little due to the smaller gap size between thin walls, as seen in Fig. 17(e) and (f). In addition, the vertical deflections along the center line of the top surface of the cantilever beam in all the above cases are illustrated in Fig. 18.

This arrangement is similar to many other helicopter transmissions. Torque is transmitted from the central sun gear through the planets to the planet carrier and from the planet carrier to the main rotor shaft. It is important to have tools to assess the condition of these components as they form a non-redundant critical part of the drive to the main rotor. One such tool is vibration analysis. However, the vibration of epicyclic gear trains is difficult to analyse. Not only are there multiple planet gears producing similar vibrations, but there are also multiple and time-varying transmission paths from the gear mesh points to the transducers, which are typically mounted on the gearbox housing. These factors combine to reduce the effectiveness of conventional fault detection algorithms when they are applied to epicyclic gear trains. In 2002, fatigue cracks were found in the planet carriers of two US Army UH-60A Black Hawk helicopter main transmissions (2400 Series). These are shown in Figs. 3 and 4. The 250mm hub-to-rim crack in the first carrier was found as a result of an inspection for the cause of repeated low transmission oil pressure warnings. e front matter Crown Copyright r 2006 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ARTICLE IN PRESS D.M. Blunt, J.A. Keller / Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing 20 (2006) 2095\u201321112096 The 82mm crack in the second carrier was found as a result of an inspection. Both cracks initiated in the planet post-to-plate radius. Discovery of the cracks resulted in flight restrictions on a significant number of US Army UH-60A helicopters, and the search for a simple, cost-effective test capable of diagnosing this type of fault. The US Army conducted a vibration test program on the transmission with the 82mm crack. It was run in a test cell at torque settings ranging from 20% to 100% of the rated torque. This exact same transmission (gears, carrier, and main module case) was also installed in a helicopter and ground-run at torque settings of 20% and 30%. Vibration data were acquired from four other undamaged transmissions: one in the test cell, and three in UH-60A helicopters. These data sets were initially analysed by Keller and Grabill [1] using several standard diagnostic parameters that were modified for the special case of an epicyclic gearbox and applied to the time synchronous averages of the planet carrier vibration. The analysis found that two of the parameters consistently detected the presence of the fault under test-cell conditions. These were the epicyclic Sideband Index (SIe) and the epicyclic Sideband Level Factor (SLFe), which were both based on the first-order sidebands of the fundamental dominant meshing component (230 shaft-orders). However, neither of these parameters was able to detect the crack under the low-torque on-aircraft conditions. The analysis concluded that the fault was \u2018\u2018detectable in controlled test-cell conditions, but noise from other rotating components and differences in the vibration levels from aircraft-to-aircraft may overshadow the effect of a cracked planetary carrier\u2019\u2019, and that \u2018\u2018it is also possible that the low torque values of the on-aircraft testing were not sufficient to expose the fault.\u2019\u2019 The same data were also analysed by Dong et al. [2] using wavelet analysis techniques combined with Markov modelling. The analysis found success in distinguishing the faulted component data from the unfaulted component data, although the method required training data sets. ARTICLE IN PRESS D.M. Blunt, J.A. Keller / Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing 20 (2006) 2095\u20132111 2097 Wu et al. [3\u20135] reported that the crack could be detected using frequency and wavelet domain analyses of the raw vibration data, but the results depended on the sensor location and frequency band. The best results were obtained for the 5th harmonic (5 ) of the epicyclic mesh frequency for one sensor (3 in Fig. 2), and the 10th harmonic (10 ) for another sensor (5 in Fig. 2), although the reasons for this were not clear. The test-cell vibration data were also analysed by McInerny et al [6]. Like Keller and Grabill\u2019s analysis, a number of different metrics for the detection of faults in fixed-axis gears were modified and applied to the time synchronous averages of the planet carrier vibration. However, some statistics for the raw (non-averaged) vibration data were also presented, and a new metric measuring the ratio of the energy in the planet carrier average at multiples of the planet-pass frequency with the remainder of the energy in the average was ARTICLE IN PRESS D.M.

It was reported that the crack was detectable, but the results depended on the accelerometer position and metric used, and none of the metrics were applied to the on-aircraft data. Based on the outcome of this earlier work, and in an effort to better understand the characteristics of this type of fault, this paper presents a new analysis of the UH-60A vibration data that is focussed on the modulation of the fundamental epicyclic gear mesh vibration. Two new vibration diagnostic methods are developed to detect the crack in the planet carrier from changes to the modulation. These methods are tested using the UH-60A vibration data sets, and compared with Keller and Gabrill\u2019s earlier results." ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0001012_j.triboint.2021.106927-Figure4-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0001012_j.triboint.2021.106927-Figure4-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 4.

Thus, the entire capacity of a loaded rolling contact CC is the sum of the parallel connected capacities CHz and CR. The resulting extended electrical model of the rolling contact is shown in Fig. 3. The surface area AR takes an annular shape and is the projection of the undeflected ball onto the raceway minus the hertzian contact area AHz. The surface is shown in Fig. 4 schematically. The representation of the undeflected contact area however inflicts a contradiction to the current state of research. According to equations (1) and (2), the calculation of the impedance of rolling bearings is based on the assumption that solely rolling elements with a Hertzian contact contribute to the total capacitance. Consequently rolling elements outside the load zone shouldn\u2019t add to it. In contrast, the undeflected area around the Hertzian zone increases the capacity by the factor kR as described, which implies that an unloaded rolling element should add to the total capacity of the bearing", " At the inner race, the distance between the race and the rolling element hUi is therefore given by the difference between the position-dependent clearance \u03b4\u03d5 and the lubricant film thickness of the rolling element at the outer race. hUi = \u03b4\u03d5 \u2212 hUo. (8) The position-dependent clearance \u03b4\u03d5, in turn, depends on the bearing clearance Pd and the radial sift \u03b4r between the bearing rings due to the radial load. \u03b4\u03d5 = \u03b4r cos \u03d5 \u2212 0.5Pd.

A horn grown from an expanding surface G by growth velocities at various angles to G to produce logarithmic spiral cell tracks as shown. The centerline is a segment of a circle", "texts": [ " This may be accomplished by the use of logarithmic spirals which are extensively discussed by D\u2019arcy Thompson (1942) in connection with the forms of shells, horns and other biological forms. Logarithmic spirals are plane curves (Fig. 10) described by r\"beh #05 a , (54) where r, h are polar coordinates and b and a are constants. The angle between the tangent to the spiral and the radius vector r is the constant angle a. This property is suggested in the alternate name of equiangular spiral. If a is (90\u00b0, then r increases with h. If a is '90\u00b0, then r decreases with h, i.e. the curve spirals inwards rather than outwards. When a\"90\u00b0, r is constant and the spiral becomes a circle. In Fig. 11, a close approximation to the boundaries shown in Fig. 9 are illustrated for a specific case. Fig. 11 is a cross-section of a horn with the following logarithmic spirals as the cell tracks. The problem to be solved is to find the growth velocity g that produces this horn. From Table 1 it can be seen that the center-line curve C 0 is a circle. The curves C 1 and C 2 are logarithmic spirals which spiral outwards. The curves C 3 and C 4 are logarithmic curves spiraling inwards. The constants in Table 1 have been adjusted so that all curves meet at the point (50, 0) so C 0 is a quarter of a circle. The cross-section shown in Fig. 11 is the curved counterpart of Fig. 8 in the sense that along any radius in Fig. 11 the angle between tangents to the curves C 0 , C 1 , C 2 , C 3 , C 4 are constants independent of h. The same is true for the cell tracks in Fig. 8, for any line drawn parallel to the x 1 axis (which is the analogue of r as rPR). To complete the description of the 3-D horn, whose section is shown in Fig. 11, we assume that G is always a circle, and that as a result, sections h 3 \"constant, are planes containing the x 3 axis. The cross-sections on such planes are then also circles. Curves on which (h2 1 #h2 2 )\"constant, are also circles in the interior on h 3 \"constant planes. The stipulation that G is always a circle, together with the two cell tracks C 1 and C 4 , completely defined the external geometry of the horn. The cell tracks in the interior in Fig. 11 are defined by requiring them to be logarithmic spirals. Cell tracks which are not in the plane shown in Fig. 11, must have some component of the growth velocity in the x 3 direction as well as in the x 1 , x 2 plane. The information given above is sufficient to develop a computer program based on Eq. (25) which generates this 3-D horn. A computer drawn 3-D view of the horn is shown in Fig. 12. Logarithmic spirals were extensively discussed by D\u2019arcy Thompson (1942), primarily with respect to shells in which the spiral angle is constant for all points of the shell. The use of inward and outward spirals for horns as in Fig. 11 was not developed. In Fig. 11, the stippled area indicates a possible cross-section of a hollow horn. The solid tip may be produced by a change of G from a circle to a ring as growth proceeds as shown schematically in Fig. 13. Example 3.7.

Workflow of the modified inherent strain method [45].", "texts": [ " In particular, the key idea behind the modified inherent strain method is to compute the inherent strain vector from the elastic and plastic strain histories in a pre-run detailed process simulation (based on moving point heat source model) and then apply the inherent strain vector as thermal expansion coefficients on the part in a series of layer-by-layer static equilibrium analyses [44,45]. The shrinkage of the solidified material due to the complex mechanics associated with rapid heating and cooling is introduced by giving a unit temperature rise in the part-scale simulation. The modified inherent strain method avoids the expensive detailed thermomechanical analysis with fine mesh resolution and lots of time steps to yield a relatively accurate deformation profile (see Fig. 2). The basic procedures of the modified inherent strain method employed in this work to compute deformation profile are: 1) A detailed process simulation is performed on a micro-scale model to obtain the inherent strain vector which considers the inherent deformation introduced by laser melting and solidification. 2) The obtained inherent strain vector is then applied as coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) to part-scale model for residual deformation prediction.

Broken lines and shading show position of upper plate and shape of test piece after compression.", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "(c) The flow produced by compression is extremely complex, the shear rate is not uniform throughout the test piece and changes during the course of the test. Consequently, it is virtually impossible to deduce fundamental rheological parameters of the rubber. Nevertheless, compression plastimeters have been found very useful for routine testing, particularly of uncompounded rubber, where only basically similar materials are compared. There are basically two forms of parallel plate compression plastimeter; (a) with both compression plates much larger than the test piece (Figure 6.2(a), 'plate' test) and (b) with one or both plates of approximately the same diameter as the test piece (Figure 6.2(b), 'disc' test). In the plate test, the test piece area increases and, hence, the pressure decreases as the rubber spreads out, whereas in the disc test the test piece area remains effectively constant because the excess material (B in Figure 6.2(b) is outside the compression zone A. However, although the compression pressure remains constant, the shear stresses in the rubber vary as its thickness is decreased^ '\u0302 ^\u0302 . A more important advantage of the disc test is that the result is less affected by variations in test piece volume^ '\u0302 \u0302 ;\u0302 of the order of \u00b15% can be allowed in the disc method as against \u00b11% in the plate method. On the other hand, the initial test piece shape factor (ratio of height to diameter) influences the result more in the disc test than in the plate test.\u0302 ^ Consequently, there is an advantage in pre-compressing the test piece to constant thickness before commencing the test proper. Pre-compression has Test on unvulcanized rubbers 69 another advantage in that the thinner test piece can be brought to the test temperature more quickly and this is the basis of the various 'rapid' plastimeters. The basic compression plastimeter principle can be modified by measuring the force required to compress the test piece to a given thickness in a given time. This was the principle adopted in, for example, the Defometer and it has the advantage that this force is proportional to the effective viscosity of the rubber under the conditions of test, although this viscosity is an average for the range of shear rates throughout the rubber. ISO 2007^^ specifies a rapid plastimeter procedure using an instrument with one platen either 7.3, 10 or 14 mm diameter and the other platen 'of larger diameter than the first' (i.e. disc type method). The size of the first platen is chosen such that the measured plasticity is between 20 and 85. The test piece is cut with a punch which will give a constant volume of 0.40 \u00b1 0.04 cm, the thickness being approximately 3 mm and the diameter approximately 13 mm. The test piece is pre-compressed to a thickness of 1 \u00b1 0.01 mm within 2 sec and heated for 15 sec. The test load of lOON is then applied for 15 sec when the test piece thickness is measured. The usual temperature of test is 100\u00b0C and the result is expressed as the thickness of the test piece at the end of the test in units of 0.01 mm and called the 'rapid plasticity number'. The Wallace rapid plastimeter, and presumably other commercial instruments, conform to this specification but it would be sensible to check with the manufacturers. A technically identical method is given in BS 903:Part A59^l ISO 7323\u0302 \"\u0302 specifies a parallel plate test based on the Wilhams plastimeter with plates 4 cm in diameter. The test piece is 2.00 \u00b1 0.02 cm^ in volume and can conveniently be a cylinder 16 mm diameter and 10 mm thick. As discussed above, a close tolerance on volume is necessary for this type of plastimeter. The test piece is preheated for 15 min (the temperature of test is usually 70\u00b0C or 100\u00b0C) and compressed under a force of 49N. The thickness of the compressed test piece is measured in mm and this value multiplied by 100 quoted as the plasticity number. The preferred time of application of the force is 3 min. The correction to the standard in 2003 was to change the tolerance on the force from 0.05N to 0.5N. The ISO method also gives a procedure for measuring the recovery of the test piece after removal of the load. The height of the test piece is measured after Imin recovery at the test temperature. The 'recovery value' is reported as the difference between plasticity number and recovered height multiplied by 100. ASTM D926^^ gives similar methods to ISO 7323 but has two recovery procedures.

The input shaft is assumed to be connected to a flywheel with high inertia, ensuring that no undue fluctuations occur in the input angular velocity. Then, the input crank is reduced to a rotating cantilever beam. It must be pointed out, however, that this assumption is made only to simplify the computational procedure. In Fig. 5, system-oriented generalized displacements are labeled to describe the structural deformation of the linkage as well as to maintain compatibility between the elements at the nodes. For example, at node 2, UI and U2 are required to describe the nodal translations. Two more independent displacements, U3 and U4, are necessary at node 2 to describe the rotational deformations in each of the two elements, 1 and 2. The above displacements simulate a pin 612 joint.

The Requirement for a Constant Angular Veloci ty Ratio When two gears rotate together, as shown in Figure 1.3, the teeth of each gear pass in and out of mesh with those of the other gear, and this occurs in an area that lies somewhere between the gear centers C1 and C2 . The teeth from the two gears pass through the meshing area alternately, first one from gear 1, then one from gear 2, and so on. Hence, if the gears have N1 and N2 teeth, and during a certain time interval T the number of teeth from each gear passing through the meshing area is n, then the gears will make respectively (n/N 1) and (n/N2) revolutions", " The new requirement for the angular veloci ties can be expressed by the equation, ( 1 .4) The purpose of this chapter is to determine the condition that must be satisfied by the meshing tooth prof i les, if the gears are to have the constant angular velocity ratio given in Equation (1.4).

I f the number of teeth N2 of gear 2 in Figure 1.3 were extremely large, the radius of the gear would also be large, relative to the tooth size, and the teeth near the meshing area would lie almost on a straight line. In the limit, as N2 becomes infinite, the teeth would lie exactly on a straight line, as shown in Figure 1.4. When two gears mesh, the smaller of the two is called the pinion, and the larger is usually referred to as the gear.

Due to the fact that the bar rolls without slipping, we can say that the length of arc EB on the base circle must be equal to the length EA on the bar. In symbolic form, this can be written, arc EB EA (2.8) We now need to define a number of new symbols, and to derive the relations between them. Figure 2.4 shows the base Profile angle and roll angle.

The ends of the path of contact.", "texts": [ " In order to measure the amount of overlap, we introduce a quantity called the contact ratio, defined in the following manner. If a~c is the angle through which a gear rotates during one meshing cycle, and aop is the angle subtended at the gear center by one tooth, the contact ratio mc is defined as follows, ( 4 \u2022 1 ) The angle aop is known as the angular pitch of the gear, and its value in radians is equal to 2~ divided by the number of teeth, 2~ N (4.2) The rotation a~c is called the angle of contact, and in order to find its value, we need to describe the meshing process in some detail. Figure 4.1 shows a pair of meshing gears, and we will assume that gear is driving and is 84 Contact Ratio, Interference and Backlash turning counter-clockwise, so that gear 2 is being driven and is turning clockwise. When the gears rotate, the first contact between a pair of teeth occurs at T2 , the point where the tip circle of the driven gear cuts the common tangent to the base circles. This is because the contact point must lie on that line, as we showed in Chapter 3, and the teeth of gear 2 are not long enough to make contact at points on that line below T2\u2022 At the initial contact, therefore, the tip of the tooth on the driven gear is in contact with the tooth of the driving gear, at a point on its profile somewhere below the pitch circle. After the initial contact, the gears continue to rotate, and the contact point in Figure 4.1 moves upwards along the path of contact. On the driving gear, the contact point moves outwards towards the tooth tip, while on the driven gear it moves inwards. Contact ceases when the contact point reaches the tooth tip of the driving gear. The position where this occurs is at point T1, where the tip circle of the driving gear crosses the common tangent to the base circles. Contact Ratio 85 The displacement as of the contact point along the path of contact was related to the gear rotation a~ by Equation (3", "3) Hence, if as is the contact point displacement between the c beginning and the end of the meshing cycle, the corresponding gear rotation a~c can be expressed as follows, asc Rb (4.4) We now combine Equations (4.1, 4.2 and 4.4), to obtain an expression for the contact ratio, asc 211'Rb (-N-) and since the denominator is equal to the base pitch Pb' as it was defined in Equation (2.22), the expression for the contact ratio can be simplified to the following form, (4.5) The initial and final points of contact are shown in Figure 4.1 as T2 and T1, and the length asc is equal to the distance between these points. The line segment from T2 to T1 is the path of contact, and asc is therefore equal to the length of the path of contact. From the manner in which the contact ratio was defined in Equation (4.1), it might appear that two meshing gears could have contact ratios of different values, but it is now clear from Equation (4.5) that the two values must be the same, since the base pitches of the two gears are equal. Expressions for the positions sT1 and sT2 of the end points of the path of contact can be derived with the help of Figure 4.2, which shows the essential features of Figure 4.1 in greater detail. It should be remembered that s is defined like a coordinate, so that its value is positive for points above P, and negative for those below.

Since the shape of the melt pool is not axisymmetrical along the longitudinal section, in other words, if we take the center of laser spot as the origin point, the area of the head part of the melt pool is smaller than that of the tail part due to the heat flux. Therefore, the amount of the powder injected into the melt pool with Dx ]/0 was less than that with Dx B/0 (referring to Fig. 4).

In particular, when we consider involute gears, we will use the Fillet Shape Cut by a Rac k Cutter 213 method to find the shape of the tooth fillet, which is cut by the circular section at the tooth tip of the rack cutter. The tooth profile of the rack cutter is shown in Figure 9.5. The circular section of the profile extends from point Ahr to point ATr \u2022 The radius of this section is rrT' and its center is at point A~, whose coordinates (x~,y~) are given by Equations (5.43 and 5.44). In the general theory described in the previous section, we chose a point Ar of the cutter tooth profile, and determined the position ur of the cutter, at which Ar would be the cutting point. For the special case when the cut ter tooth profi Ie is circular, it is sl ightly more convenient to reverse this order. We choose the position of the cutter, and we then determine which point Ar of the circular profile is the cutting point. We therefore consider the cutter in the position shown in Figure 9.5, with an offset e and with the x axis lying a r distance (-ur ) below line CPo In this position of the cutter, the center A~ of the tooth profile circular section has coordinates (~' ,~'), which are given by the following equations, ~ I e + x' r (9.10) 214 Geometry of Non-Involute Gears 1/' (9.11) If the line from the pitch point to A~ intersects the tooth profile at Ar' and Ar is a point on the circular part of the profile, then the normal to the profile at Ar passes through P, and Ar must be the cutting point.

They consist of three main units: a positioning unit, an integrated micromanipulation unit and a gripper (Figure 19).

The development of new recognition principles, or the improvement of known processes for this purpose, is a task for the chemist or physical chemist. Campared with this challenge the next stage is less difficult; the function of this second component of any chemo- or biosensor is to \"relay\" the substance-specific signal, in other words to transform an energy quantity into an electrical signal proportional to it.

His scientific advisor for the Diplom thesis was H. Gerischer; his Ph.D. advisor was G. Ertl (University of Munich). After postdoctoral positions with G. A. Rechnitz (State University of New York at Buffalo) and S. Mazur (University of Chicago) he accepted an assistant professorship for Analytical Chemistry at the University of Ulm. In 1986 he became an Associate Professor of Analytical Chemistry at the Technical University of Munich and shortly thereafter (i987) Full Professor of Analytical Chemistry at the Westfiilische Wilhelms University of Miinster (chair of Prof. E: Umland). His research interests lie in the field of selective chemical detectors and monitors. In 1987 he received two awards for the development of a new plasma-emission-spectroscopic GC-detector (OcP van der Grinten Pollution Control Award: Technology Transfer Award of the German Ministry for Education and Science).

Often a third component, consisting of a further electronic unit (a preamplifier, impedance converter, multiplexer, analogue-to-digital converter, etc.) is placed directly after the transducer, to suppress as far as possible external influences caused by interfering electric or magnetic fields, or to feed the separate signals from several recognition systems simultaneously to the data processing unit through a single electrical connection. Chemo- and biosensors can be classified according to the type of sensor element used for molecular recognition, or according to the type of transducer. If the emphasis is on analytical selectivity, the most important component is the recognition system. If on the other hand the limit of detectability or the signal-to-noise ratio is crucial, the critical component may be the physical or electronic transducer (see Table 2). All chemo- and biosensors can be used directly for analyzing gases and liquids (the latter also includes suspensions or pastes) for specific ions or molecules, in concentrations varying from the ppb range to the percent range. As the sample preparation required for chemo- or biosensors of adequate selectivity is minimal, and the sensors are available at low cost, high rates of growth are forecast by all the market studies that have been carried out. For sensors that are less selective, it is still possible in many cases to design a comparatively inexpensive measuring instrument, by incorporating automatic sample preparation based on a chemical reaction which is selective, or on separation techniques. Flow injection analysis is especially valuable in this respect.[241 2. Chemosensors 2.1. Electrochemical Sensors 2.1.1. Ion-Selective Electrodes Till a few years ago ion-selective electrodes (including the glass pH electrode) were the most important class of chemosensors in economic terms, since at that time the \u201clambdaprobe\u201d for controlling three-way catalytic converters for automobiles was not yet produced in today\u2019s numbers because of the absence of legal requirements. In ion-selective potentiometry the data are processed using an extension of the Nernst equation derived empirically by N i ~ o l s k y . ~ ~ ~ ] This extended equation (a) relates the activity of the ion species to be determined and the measured voltage when an ISE halfcell is connected to a common reference electrode, taking into account the effects of all interfering components. RT U = U o +7 In [ a M + x K M - -MF I Li = potential of the cell R = universal gas constant T = absolute temperature F = Faraday constant Uo = standard potential of the cell aM = activity of the ion being measured zM = charge of the ion being measured (with appropriate sign) KM-, = selectivity coefficient (measured ion vs. interfering ion) a, = activity of the interfering ion z , = charge of the interfering ion (with appropriate sign) The selectivity is described by the selectivity coefficient K M - , , which unfortunately is not a constant, since it depends on the method used for the determination and on the concentrations of all the interfering species and the ion to be measured. For good ISEs it is of the order of which means that a 104-fold excess of the interfering ion would change the reading by a factor of 2 (i.e. an error of 100%). A new theoretical model of the mechanism for the selectivity in the potential generated at the phase boundary between the ionselective membrane and the measured medium has been developed in the last few years.[26-301 This is based on the studies of Koryta13 l1 and others on electrochemical phenomena at the interface between two immiscible electrolytes, and also on results from studies on corrosion involving competing electrode reactions. The basic principle of ion-selective potentiometry is the observation of an ion-selective change in the potential at the phase boundary. This in turn depends on the ion-selective change (or shift) of charge (or charge distribution) at this boundary, i.e., a significant transfer between the phases occurs only for the ion species in question. This requires that 518 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 certain energetic and geometrical variables be optimally matched. If an uncharged ion-selective membrane electrode which satisfies the electrical neutrality condition is immersed in an electrolyte solution, a transfer of charge carriers occurs between the phases. The direction of this (membrane + solution or the reverse) is determined by the gradient of the chemical potential. When only one species of ion can selectively cross the boundary (this selectivity results, for example, from specific complex formation in liquid or PVC membranes, or from the dimensions of lattice sites in polycrystalline or semicrystalline materials), this selective transfer of charge carriers leads to a redistribution and an accumulation of charge at the phase boundary. This generates an electric field, thus counteracting the ion transfer which was at first energetically favored, so that eventually, under the combined influence of the electrostatic repulsion between similarly charged particles and the attractive forces due to the oppositely charged carriers left behind, the transfer of charge carriers ceases and the reverse reaction is favored. In the equilibrium state the microscopic ion currents passing in both directions through the phase boundary are equal, and the ion-selective potential difference that is thereby established is constant and can be measured. Externally the condition is one of zero current (a requirement for potentiometric measurement). In terms of electrochemical kinetics the transport of charge carriers (measured ions) across the phase boundary between the electrode or ion-selective membrane and the solution corresponds to a directed electric current i'or i(depending on whether the direction is from membrane to solution or the reverse). In the equilibrium state i'= i= i,. The current density j , (= &/A, A = area) is called the exchange current density (see Fig. 2). The two opposing current densities :and Jmaintain the ion-selective charge distribution at the phase boundary at a constant value. Furthermore, these microscopic ion-currents actually make it possible to measure the charge distribution at this interface, since in practice one cannot avoid drawing a current of lo-'' to A in i [ pAlcmZ] Fig. 2. Schematic representation of the forward and reverse currents iand i passing through the phase boundary; the selectivity is given by the ratio of the (equilibrium) charges qH and q, for the measured and interfering ions respectively (see text). the measuring circuit, depending on the amplifier used, which corresponds to a net flow of lo9 to lo5 elementary charges per second. The ion-selective electrical potential generated at the phase boundary of such an ion sensor by selective charge separation is, of course, dependent on the concentration of the ionic species which can cross the boundary. The relationship between ion concentration and interfacial potential was derived theoretically by Nernst as long ago as 1889, in the brilliant work leading to the equation named after him. From the ion-exchange current density j,, which can be determined experimentally, the recent theory predicts the selectivity of a potentiometric sensor. The potential in each case is determined by the ionic species that has the greatest exchange current density. Other reactions may take place at the phase boundary in parallel with the process described (because real solutions usually contain interfering ions in addition to those being measured). The thermodynamic equilibrium potentials for the individual electrode reactions (in this case, the parallel processes in which the measured and interfering ions cross the phase boundary between two ionic conductors), as in the case of corroding metal electrodes, may not be fully achieved. This results in deviations from the theoretical Nernst behavior. In order to achieve a high ion-exchange current density and thereby obtain the desired selectivity, appropriate changes can be made in the thermodynamic and kinetic variables. For example, introducing into the membrane an ionophore for a particular ion species causes an increase in the exchange current density, and therefore in the selectivity for that ion. The selectivity obtained in this way is probably due to a long-range ion-dipole interaction between this particular ion species in the solution and the ionophore in the membrane surface. It is conceivable that, specifically for the potential-determining ion species, an overlap of the energy barriers involved (desolvation and decomplexation activation-energy profiles) occurs, which results in the lowering of the effective activation energy for ion transfer over the entire phase boundary. This activation energy can also be expressed in electrochemical terms as an ion-transfer resistance. This in turn is inversely proportional to the exchange current density, and can be obtained, for instance, from impedance spectra.r32* 331 The selectivity of all types of ion-selective membranes, the rapid establishment of the potential, even for thick membranes, and the abnormally large graph slopes in the U vs. log a diagram that are occasionally found (steeper than predicted by the Nernst factor preceding the logarithm of the activity of the measured ion, see Eq. (a)), can all be satisfactorily explained by this novel theoretical approach which also considers kinetic parameters. Numerous fundamental studies have been carried out in our research group since 1975 to determine the conditions that must be fulfilled for a particular ion to be potential-determining (and therefore able to be measured selectively). For every type of electrode the critical factor was the ratio of the exchange current density for the measured ion to that for the relevant interfering ion. In every case this ratio was equal to the potentiometrically measured selectivity coeficient in the extended form of the Nernst equation [Eq. (a)]. A comparison of good ion-selective electrodes reveals several common features. Firstly, they have a rather high poten- Angew. Chem. Ini. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 519 tial-determining exchange current density for the measured ion at the phase boundary between the ion-selective membrane and the solution. Secondly, for solid membranes, there is a preferential ionic conductivity in regions near the surface (e.g., Ag,S is a good conductor for Ag@ ions, and LaF, doped with EuZ0 is a good conductor for F' ions). In PVC membranes with selective ionic charge carriers the preferred method is to use only iondipole interactions, as is evident from a glance at the list of so-called electroactive compounds that are available.[341 Apparently the course of the activation energy threshold for the transfer of ions from the membrane phase to the solution, together with the course of activation energy for the desolvation process, determines the intersection point (i.e., the effective energy of activation for the phase transition of the relevant ion). The existence of a purely kinetic effect in favor of the ion being measured is a necessary, but not a sufficient, condition for a selective Nernst sensor which performs well and above all is stable over long periods. In addition there must be a certain degree of nonpolarizability. This quantity, as electrochemists use it, is, in simple terms, a measure of the ability of an electrochemical half-cell to maintain a constant potential regardless of the instantaneous current density at the interface. Good ion-selective electrodes, like good reference electrodes, have a relatively steep characteristic curve in the current vs. voltage diagram (C-V curve) for the ion being measured. Viewed from this standpoint, the interfering ions have characteristic C-V curves that are less steep than that for the ion being measured. If these ions are present in a solution together with the measured ions, according to our present state of knowledge a mixed potential is established, as is the case for corroding metal electrodes. This is determined predominantly by the equilibrium potential for that electrode reaction (transfer of ions between phases) which has the steepest C-V characteristic. To obtain a favorable C-V characteristic over as large a range of overpotential as possible, it is also necessary to take concentration polarization effects into account. Here higher concentrations of the measured ions in the membrane phase turn out to be beneficial; their diffusion from there into the solution, which has an unfavorable effect on the limits of detection, is hindered by complexation and by the charges of appropriately chosen counterions. This also has the advantage of increasing the buffer capacity for the chemical potential of the measured ions in the membrane phase. A detailed treatment of these aspects has been Ion-selective electrodes can be used as electrochemical half-cells in combination with suitable constant-potential reference electrodes for the quantitative determination of a wide range of substances (see Table 1). They can be classified according to the type of membrane, viz., glass, solid, liquid, or PVC membrane electrodes.[36q 371 Glass and solid membrane electrodes are robust and have a typical lifetime of several years, much longer than liquid or PVC membrane electrodes, which only remain effective for about six months, depending on the application, unless one is prepared to accept large sacrifices in sensitivity and selectivity. However, for the latter types of electrodes some manufacturers have introduced a modular design which allows the easy and rapid renewal of sensitive electrode elements. The most important types of ionophores required to make one's own selective PVC membranes are available commercially,[381 and are supplied complete with instructions; these were developed mainly by Simon's research group in Zurich. 2.1.2 Ion-Selective Field Effect Transistors (ISFETs) It was believed for a long time that in ion-selective field effect transistors, first described by Bergveldt3'* 401 in 1970, we at last had a new generation of sensors which met all the requirements of miniaturizability, compatibility with microelectronics, and the capability for being mass-produced, with attendant cost savings. The now familiar production techniques of microelectronics seemed to offer prospects for developing chemosensors in the form of disposable mass-produced articles. Since then the initial euphoria has given way to a more realistic assessment, since these sensors still pose difficulties with regard to long-term stability and integration with miniaturized reference electrodes. Nevertheless, it is of interest to examine this class of sensors in a little more detail in the following discussion, since they bring together the disciplines of chemistry, electronics, and thin film technology, and they provide the basis for biochips. An ISFET can be generally regarded as a very miniaturized version of an ion-selective half-cell with an in-built impedance converter. It can be used to determine the activity of not only individual ion species, for which ion-selective macro-electrodes are also available, but also-in the form of an enzyme-coated ISFET (b iochip ta wide variety of substrates. The transistors that are used can in most cases be made as very small devices, allowing the accommodation of several sensitive surfaces for detecting different ions or substrates on a single chip with an area of only a few mm2. The entire electronic control circuit, including temperature compensation, can also be fitted on the same chip. The basic building block of all ISFETs is a field effect transistor (FET), in which the metallic gate of a conventional transistor is replaced by an insulating layer, above which is an ion-selective layer. The value at any instant of the gating potential, which controls the current between the source and the drain, is determined by the activity of the ion species being measured, through the presence of the ion-selective surface film. Figure 3 shows the basic construction of an ISFET in a form which has certain advantages. Often, however, instead of measuring the variation of the source-todrain current as a function of the activity of the measured ion 520 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. EngI. 30 (1991) 516-539 species, one measures the control voltage that must be applied via a reference electrode to hold this current at a constant value; this makes it possible to maintain an optimal working point, chosen to reduce temperature effects. In an ISFET the ion-selective PVC membrane, which is applied to the gate surface mainly by spin-coating, forms the sensor element, which recognizes specific substances. By using known electroactive compounds, all types of ion-selective PVC membrane electrodes can also be incorporated into ISFETs. However, problems with the adhesion of the plastic membrane to the gate surface result in contact difficulties, since the membrane which gives the selectivity becomes detached, usually after a few weeks. In a pH-ISFET[41-44] protons produce a field, whose intensity depends on the H@ concentration, at a thin film of SiO,, Si,N,, A1,0, or Ta,O, . A serious disadvantage of these materials is that in many cases they still have some sensitivity to light and redox systems. Also, the diffusion of impurities into the lower layers of the semiconductor, which are known to be sensitive to this, usually results in a slow drift of the measuring signal, of the order of a few mV per day. The disadvantages mentioned, together with the fundamental problem of leakage-path formation in the insulation of the remaining transistor surfaces, which again causes drift in the readings before the device finally ceases to function, has so far prevented ISFETs from achieving a larger commercial success. However, recent developments in the area of electrolytic glazing offer some hope of improvements.[451 In the development of ISFETs work is already in progress on multisensor arrays146. 471 in which several different ion-selective sensor elements controlling separate gates are integrated on a single chip. Here, however, one is approaching the limits of miniaturization technology. The spin-coating technique cannot lay down closely spaced regions of different selectivity less than 1 mm2 in area. Experiments in which a common plasticized PVC membrane is laid down to cover all the gates before local regions above individual gate surfaces are doped with different electroactive compounds have also encountered problems, because diffusion of ionic carriers within the membrane smears out the ion selectivities. It is also necessary to integrate into the ISFET a miniaturized reference electrode with long-term stability, in order to exploit fully the advantages of the device as a miniaturized chemosensor. If the dimensions of the salt-bridge elements are too small, resulting in only short-term resistance of the integrated reference electrode to invasion by potentialfalsifying substances, it will only be possible to make disposable sensors. Here, however, it is important to investigate the possibility of using a conventional thick-film design for the electrodes, which might also be cheaper. In this connection an interesting alternative to ISFETs are film electrodes produced using planar technology.[481 These too offer the advantages of miniaturized sensors which can be economically mass-produced. One commercially available 501 is based on the principle of zero-point potentiometry. In this one-shot disposable sensor, the measuring and reference systems are identical, and as the pair are made under identical conditions from the same materials the potential difference with the relevant membranes in contact with the same solution is zero. If one now deposits on one of the sensor surfaces a reference solution of known concentra- tion, and on the other the solution to be tested (see Fig. 4), according to the Nernst equation the observed potential difference gives a direct measure of the concentration difference between the two solutions for the relevant measured ion species (concentration meter design). The errors that are pos sible in difference methods of this sort (where no transport of samples is involved) are very small, as the problems with conventional reference electrodes (variations in potential due to diffusion), ageing effects, and electrode poisoning effects are avoided. However, continuous measurements are not possible with this device. 2.1.3. Ion-Conducting Solid Electrolyte Sensors The lambda-probe, which has become familiar because of the three-way catalytic converter, is currently the most widely used of all electrochemical sensors. It enables the measurement of the residual oxygen content in the exhaust from internal combustion engines, making use of the selective ionic conductivity of the 02@ ion in yttrium-doped ZrO, at temperatures above 400\u00b0C. A potentiometer device for measuring 0, concentrations can be designed as a concentration cell, which allows the gaseous oxygen to be in equilibrium with the lattice oxygen in the solid electrolyte [reaction (l)]. If there is a higher oxygen concentration on one side of the ZrO, membrane than on the other (i.e. on one side an oxygen partial pressure p r f , for example, of the outside atmosphere or of a reference gas, and on the other side a partial pressure pgImPle, for example, of the exhaust gas or other medium being analyzed), according to the Nernst equation a potential difference proportional to the logarithm of the ratio of the two oxygen pressures is set up [Eq. (b)]. RT pgf U=-ln4 F pgTPle The selectivity of this sensor results from the fact that in ZrO, there is a selective conductivity for OZe ions (similar to that for Fe ions in single crystals of LaF,), which also determines the surface reaction. Figure 5 shows schematically the construction of a lambda-probe working on the potentio- Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 521 metric prin~iple.[~\u2019~ With regard to the other analytical properties of the device, the same arguments as for ion-selective membrane electrodes apply here. The range of concentrations that can be measured is enormous ( > 10 decades), provided that the current in the measuring circuit is considerably less than the exchange current for the redox reaction (a) at the platinum contact electrodes. The precision in this case also is limited to 0.1 mV, and at constant temperature this gives a relative precision of about 2 YO in the measured concentration. This accuracy is sufficient for the typical use in a three-way catalyst for automobiles; due to the logarithmic dependence of the signal according to the Nernst equation an immense potential difference results. LaF, , which has an appreciable ionic conductivity even at room temperature, has been found to be a suitable solid electrolyte for the determination of 0, at room temperature.[\u201d] In this material a change in potential is produced by OHe and HOF ions formed as intermediates, and this allows an indirect measurement of the 0, High temperature solid electrolytes with Oze conductivity can also be used at a constant oxygen concentration for detecting oxidizable substances, by making use of a second reaction that takes place at the electrodes. An example where this occurs is in the catalytic oxidation of NH, and the determination of chromium in molten steel,[5s1 by reaction (2) . 3OZe(SIC) + 2Cr(metal) --t Cr,03(2nd phase) + be-(metal) (SIC = solid ionic conductor) (2) Here the OZe ions moving in the solid electrolyte oxidize the chromium with the release of electrons, which can be measured as a change in potential. It has also been shown that silicon can be determined by a similar method when ZrSiO, is the solid ionic A very compact sensor suitable for applications at these high temperatures (above 1600\u00b0C) has recently been developed; this can be used for up to 10 h in molten Special sensors have also been developed for determining oxygen in liquid sodium, which is used in fast breeder reactor^.^^^*^^^ In addition to withstanding high temperatures and mechanical loading, these sensors must also be resistant to radiation and corrosion by sodium. Solid electrolyte sensors that have been developed for determining substances other than oxygen include especially those for SO,/SO, and C0,.[601 These consist for example, of Li,SO, + Ag,S0,[57~6*-641 and have a working temperature of about 400 \u201cC. The sensitivity of such sensors is in the range of 3 to lo4 ppm of SO,, and they are currently being tested for use in monitoring exhaust gases. The measurement of CI, is also possible with surface-modified solid electrolytes, e.g. the ionic conductor LiAICI, with its surface covered by a thin film of LiCl or AlCl,. The cell voltage is determined by the partial pressure of chlorine, and obeys the Nernst equation.t65* 2.1.4. Amperometric Sensors To avoid the requirements for temperature constancy in the lambda-probe, and obtain a linear instead of a logarithmic relationship between signal and concentration with higher accuracy, which is essential in engines working with I > 1 .O, the sensor can alternatively be designed as a limiting current probe.t67. 681 This configuration, which can also be operated at temperatures below 400\u00b0C, differs from the potentiometric form of a lambda-probe in that a current flows through the 0, concentration cell as a result of an externally applied voltage (\u201cpumping voltage\u201d), thereby transporting oxygen from one side of the ZrO, membrane to the other (an \u201coxygen pump\u201d). In front of the cathode there is a diffusion barrier (e.g. a porous ceramic layer), which the oxygen must traverse before being reduced and transported through the ZrO, to the anode (Fig. 6). If the applied voltage is chosen so that each oxygen molecule that arrives is immediately reduced at the cathode, a voltage-independent limiting current region is obtained, as in polarography. The current then flowing is directly proportional to the 0, concentration to be measured, and the temperature coefficient is no longer given by the Nernst factor, but is determined by the properties of the diffusion barrier.t691 The amperometric measuring principle has largely been used to advantage in industrial chemosensors for gases. The classic example of this is the Clark oxygen The oxygen whose concentration is to be measured diffuses through a gas-permeable membrane 10 to 50pm thick, which is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon) or a fluorinated ethylene-propylene copolymer (FEP) with a very high permeability to oxygen. Behind this membrane is an electrolyte solution containing chloride ions, in which are immersed a platinum or gold cathode as the working electrode 522 Angew. Chem. In!. Ed. Engl. 30 (199!) 516-539 and an anode of Ag/AgCl as the constant potential counterelectrode (cf. Fig. 14). The reduction of the oxygen takes place at a working electrode potential of approximately - 0.8 V relative to the Ag/AgCl electrode. The rate-limiting step is the diffusion of the oxygen through the gas-permeable membrane, and the rate of this depends on the gradient of the 0, partial pressure across the membrane. The current is therefore determined primarily by the 0, partial pressure. As the membrane is impermeable to liquids and electrolytes, the sensor can also be used to determine dissolved oxygen in liquids; in this case the dependence on the partial pressure must be noted. The sensor gives the same reading for air and for a liquid that is saturated with air! To obtain a reading which indicates the dissolved oxygen in mgL-' it is necessary to calibrate the sensor. A disadvantage of most 0, sensors based on this principle is that oxygen is consumed. When they are used in stationary liquids there may not be a sufficient flow of oxygen to the electrode (resulting in an oxygen-deficient layer in the liquid whose growth follows a I/i law), which gives readings that are too low. The solution being measured must therefore be stirred, but this leads to some extent to a dependence of the observed signal on the convection flow. The effects of this disadvantage (especially in biomedical applications) can be minimized by reducing the area of the working electrode, which in turn causes difficulties because the current then becomes very small. Efforts are now in progress to overcome this problem by using an array of ultramicroelectrodes (Fig. 7). The use individual electrodes as small as 1 pm in diameter, has led to such low reaction rates that the Brownian motion of the molecules together with the radial diffusion sphere ensures a sufficient oxygen supply. However, sensor technologies of this sort can only be put into effect with the most modern microelectronics manufacturing processes. Amperometric oxygen electrodes are widely used as transducers for many types of biosensors (see Table 7). Many gas sensors for SO,, CO and NO function on a similar principle. The measurement is based on the electro- chemical oxidation of the relevant gas in the space separated off by the gas-permeable membrane. The selectivity of amperometric sensors can be tailored to suit particular needs. Up to now the main technological use for amperometric chemosensors has been for measurements on gases, even though amperometry is also suitable for analyzing liquids, because of their limited selectivity. In the most commonly used aqueous electrolytic media, the usable voltage range extends over about 2 V. All substances that can be altered electrochemically, i.e. those that can be oxidized or reduced, which number many tens of thousands, are converted at voltages within this range. In the ideal case one can expect to distinguish ten substances at best in a voltammetric diagram by virtue of their different half-wave potential^.^'^] The separation capacity achieved by the proper choice of a working electrode potential within the limiting current region for the substance to be determined is in general inadequate for the analysis of unknown liquids. However, if a gas-permeable membrane is interposed, the interfering substances are limited to gases that can permeate the membrane equally well, and also undergo electrochemical reactions under these conditions. In the case of the Clark 0, sensor, for example, these are chlorine and some haloforms (CHX,). These interferences can be even further reduced by a careful choice of the membrane material and the electrolyte. Occasionally a difference in electrochemical reversibility coupled with pulse techniques is also exploited to increase selectivity. The limit of detectability for amperometric gas sensors is determined by the noise level of the background current. Nevertheless, chemosensors for environmental applications (measurement of NO,, SO, etc.) can be employed in the low ppm region without special signal-processing techniques. 2.1.5. Galvanic Sensors Amperometric measurements are also possible without an external current source, if a galvanic circuit is formed. The Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (199f) 516-539 523 best known example is the so-called internal electrolysis, in which Cu2@ ions are reductively deposited on a platinum wire mesh when this is connected to a zinc rod immersed in a zinc sulfate solution which is separated by a diaphragm from the solution containing the copper ions. Here again the driving force for the current which arises when zinc dissolves and copper ions are deposited on the platinum surface is the difference between the chemical potentials, or the energy difference between the two redox reactions in the electrochemical series. If in this example one connects a galvanometer externally between the zinc electrode and the platinum mesh, the current vs. time diagram obtained during the electrolysis has an exponential shape. The quantitative deposition of the Cu2@ ions on the platinum mesh is complete when the current has fallen to about 0.1 YO of its initial value. In this case, instead of using the gravimetric method, the amount of copper deposited can be calculated by Faraday\u2019s law from the total charge that has flowed (the integral of the current vs. time curve) as long as interference from side-reactions is absent. This coulometric procedure is one of the most precise absolute determination methods available, and requires no calibration. Coulometry is still an elegant method with exciting new possibilities for the development of intelligent sensors, and regrettably is too little used. Over 25 years ago a coulometric measurement cell for SO, was proposed.[\u201d] Subsequent advances in miniature electrochemical cells based on thin-film and thick-film technologies allow the easy application of such a cell as a chemosensor (Fig. 8). If the reaction is quantitative, a current of the order of 1 PA, which is easily measurable, corresponds to an analyte reaction rate of only lo-\u2019\u2019 mols-\u2019 ! Here the selectivity is achieved by a preceding chemical reaction or membrane separation stage, either of which can nowadays easily be realized by means of a suitable layered structure. An \u201canalytical fuel cell\u201d of this kind has recently also appeared on the market in the form of an alcohol meter (for analysis of breath samples). As well as using the catalytic activity of noble metal electrodes, it is also possible, of course, to use enzymes to give increased selectivity. The H,O,, which is then often produced in quantities proportional to the amount of analyte, can also be easily determined coulometrically. A galvanic measuring cell for the determination of oxygen in solutions has been well-known since the rnid-1960~.[\u2019~1 In contrast to the Clark sensor, the Mackereth oxygen sensor uses lead instead of silver as the anode material, and silver instead of platinum as the cathode material. This has the important advantage that a calibration in a blank solution (such as a saturated sulfide solution) is no longer necessary, since the electrodes produce no current in the absence of oxygen. For the internal electrolyte either sodium hydroxide or potassium hydrogen carbonate can be used. 2.2. Semiconductor Gas Sensors Sensors based on semiconductors are often used in gas alarm devices. The underlying principle here depends on a transfer of electrons between a semiconductor surface and adsorbed gas molecules. This charge transfer results in an increase or decrease in the number of free charge carriers at the semiconductor surface, causing a change in conductivity which can be measured and is proportional to the number of reacting gas molecules present. Oxidizable gases such as hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, and alkanes of low molecular mass reduce the surface conductivity of certain n-type semiconductors (SnO,, ZnO etc.), which are used at temperatures between 100 and 600\u00b0C. Reducible gases such as chlorine, oxygen, or ozone have an analogous effect on p-type semiconductors (NiO, CuO etc.). The mechanism of the electron transfer is still under intensive study and one possible model shown in Figure 9. When a gas molecule of the analyte approaches the surface of the semiconductor it first undergoes a weak physisorption. In the following step it can be either desorbed or chemisorbed with the transfer of an electron. The latter process causes a distortion of the valence 524 Angew. Chem. I n f . Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 and conduction bands, and alters the electronic work function. Depending on the composition and the structure of the surface and on the interactions between the molecules and the surface, certain types of molecules can act preferentially. The selectivity of simple sensors of this kind, which can be easily and cheaply produced with thick film techniques (see Fig. lo), can be altered within certain limits using existing knowledge of heterogeneous catalysis. To obtain improved sensitivities and selectivities for particular applications, however, mechanistic studies of the kind used in heterogeneous catalysis research, requiring sophisticated and expensive equipment, are necessary, rather than the time-consuming trial-and-error methods of nonspecialists. Often the semiconductor surface is modified by introducing metals such as palladium, silver, or platinum, whose purpose is to weaken the 0, double bond. The selectivity can be further increased to a certain extent by choosing the best operating temperature (Fig. 11) . Nevertheless, the selectivities of these types of b) a) aK[%] 6ol A K [%] 6ol 4017p 20 , . ::p+ '\\ 200 400 600 800 T[\"C] 200 400 600 800 T[\"C] Fig. 11. Effects of temperature and of the presence of platinum on the selectivity of an SnO, gas sensor. a) Pure SnO, sensor, b) SnO, sensor with 1 % platinum. sensors based on semiconductors are often insufficient.[731 The surface composition, density of charge carriers, Fermi energy level, number of reactive centers at the surface, and even the extent of distortion of the bands, can be affected by the presence of other species (interfering molecules such as water, catalyst poisons etc.). This can cause changes in selectivity. These effects must be taken into account during calibration. A change in the selectivity, sensitivity (signal per unit concentration in the analyte) or zero point of the calibration line between carrying out the calibration and the analysis is inadmissable. As it is a simple matter to modify the sensitivity, experiments are now in progress to use a sensor array in which each miniaturized individual sensor has a different sensitivity profile. Samples which contain interfering substances cause each individual sensor to give a different signal. By carrying out calibration measurements with different concentrations of the various interfering components, it should be possible, by a pattern recognition analysis, to use a special algorithm for the calculation of the true sample content. A simultaneous analysis on a mixture using such a sensor array should in principle enable the determination of every substance which has an effect on the signal, if more sensors than components to be analyzed are used. This has in fact been achieved for simple and well-defined Nevertheless, the analytical chemist with experience of industrial practice will harbour doubts about the feasibility of this method for real samples whose composition is generally unknown and continually changing. Taking the simplest form of an analytical function (c) is it possible to keep the parameters a and e constant between the calibration and the measurement? How can the algorithm take into account situations where interfering substances poison the sensors to differentor cause different drift phenomena?

Spectroscopic analysis, spectrophoto- Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 525 metry, fluorimetry, and luminescence measurements are well-established and proven techniques. Their adaptation for performing in situ analyses with miniaturized probes that can be employed in the same way as chemosensors has come about through the application of modern light-guide technology. For use in conjunction with fiber optics a new class of sensors was developed, known as optodes (also as opt r o d e ~ ) . [ ~ ~ - ~ ~ ] These optical sensors make use of changes in fluorescence, absorption, chemiluminescence, light scattering, polarization, Raman scattering, refractive index, or reflection, which at present are still detected by conventional optical or spectroscopic instruments. The light input is fed into the sample by a light-guide. The return path for the fluorescence emission or reflected light from the sample to the detector can be through the same light-guide or through a second branch (in a Y-branched light-guide). Figure 12 shows as an example the layout of a fiber-optic analytical system as commonly used for fluorescence measurements. The AC signal produced by a chopper is amplified frequency- and phase-selectively by a lock-in amplifier. This procedure makes it possible to measure delayed fluorescence as well (by the phase shift). Fluorescence and luminescence measurements give high sensitivity compared with other optical measurement methods and are therefore preferable for trace analysis. , 1 Fig. 12. Fiber-optic system for analysis by fluorescence measurements; the excitation unit (2) contains the light source (xenon or halogen lamp or laser) producing a beam which is passed through a monochromator (3), a chopper (4). and an optical coupler (5) into the light guide (6). The fluorescence radiation passes through a second light guide branch, coupler (7). and monochromator (8) to the detector (9), which consists of a photodiode or photomultiplier. (1) is the base plate. Chemiluminescence measurements have an additional advantage, as they do not require an external light source. However, because chemiluminescence is a comparatively rare phenomenon, the method is mainly limited to systems such as H,O,/luminol. The great advantage of fiber-optic sensors is that the measurements do not require a reference system, apart from comparison of the light intensities in the beam before and after it passes through the sample compartment (i.e. measuring Zo/l), or the use of a dual beam arrangement to compensate for fluctuations in the intensity of the light source. With the electrochemical sensors described earlier a second electrode giving a constant potential is always needed. Optodes can easily be miniaturized, as light-guides of suitably small diameter (e.g. 0.1 mm) are commercially available, although increasing miniaturization makes good coupling of the input radiation more difficult. Optodes can also be used in complex media such as blood. They are less susceptible to disturbance by electromagnetic fields and temperature changes than are potentiometric electrodes and semiconductor sensors. On the other hand, problems can arise from scattered and background light falling on optodes. In many cases these sensors can only be used within a small range of concentrations, like the spectroscopic analytical cuvette techniques on which they are usually based, and their selectivity is similar to that of those techniques. The detection limit also leaves room for future improvements, as it is restricted at present by the thinness of the optical films generally used for the measurements (see Table 4). Despite all this, fiber-optic sensors are expected to emerge from their present status as research devices and find a place in industrial use in future; the flow-through cuvettes will probably be abandoned first. The types most studied are pH-optodes. The technique is based on the immobilization of an indicator dye at the end of the light-guide, which allows pH values to be determined by measuring fluorescence or absorption. Indicators that have been used include 8-hydroxypyrene-I ,3,6-trisulfonate (HPTS) as well as conventional dyes such as eosin or phenyl orange.1791 Such pH-optodes also form the basis for a range of gas sensors. For example, CO, and NH, optodes contain a pH optode immersed in a suitable internal solution behind a gas-permeable membrane, as in the analogous potentiometric sensors. The acidity or basicity of the above gases alters the pH of the internal solution by an amount related to the gas concentration to be measured. Such sensors are of particular interest for in vivo applications (blood, body fluids, etc.), since unlike electrochemical sensors they do not have electrical connections to voltage-carrying components. The fields of application are similar for 0, optodes, which work on the principle of direct fluorescence quenching. The mathematical basis of this type of sensor is given by the Stern-Volmer equation.[\"] The fluorescence of an indicator such as decacyclene or perylene, which is immobilized on the tip of the light-guide, is partially quenched by oxygen. This effect can be used, after calibration, for the determination of Some new developments are based on applying knowledge of the selectivity mechanism of ion-selective electrodes to fiber-optic systems. For example, valinomycin as a selective K@ carrier can be immobilized in a suitable matrix, together with a pH-sensitive indicator in its protonated form, so as to produce a membrane which can be attached to the tip of a light-guide. If this sensor is immersed in a solution containing K@ ions, these ions will preferentially enter the membrane phase, with the formation of a potassium-valinomycin complex. To maintain electrical neutrality H@ ions (as the most readily mobile ion species) move out of the membrane phase, causing a change in the absorption or fluorescence of the pH indicator in the membrane, which can easily be measured.Is l ] In conclusion it should be noted that at present there are only a few manufacturers of optodes, and it will certainly take several more years before such fiber-optic analytical systems become as widely used as electrochemical sensors. 0 2 . 2.4. Mass-Sensitive Transducers Chemosensors based on mass-sensitive transducers have been less thoroughly investigated, and their use has so far been restricted to special applications. The measuring prin- 526 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) S16-S39 ciple depends on the shift Af in the characteristic frequency of a quartz oscillator due to a mass change Am, which occurs when a layer of foreign material is deposited on its surface. The oscillation frequency is usually in the 9 to 14 MHz range, and the selectivity is obtained by coating the surface with an appropriate adsorbent. By using phthalocyanine, for example, planar-conjugated molecules and higher alcohols can be determined; in this case mass changes as small as g can be d e t e ~ t e d . ~ ~ ~ * * ~ ] When working in vacuum the relationship between A f and Am is linear for small values of Am and is given by the Sauerbrey equation [Eq. (d)].[s41 f, = resonance frequency in the unloaded condition m = mass of the quartz crystal in the unloaded condition The suitability of quartz oscillators for gas analysis has been demonstrated beyond doubt. Difficulties arise, however, in the search for selective ab- or adsorbents for particular analytes, and in compensation for the effects of moisture and other interfering deposits. Also it must be noted that the surface adsorption or film absorption are not usually reversible. Transducers of this type are potentially important for biosensors for gas phase use. At present, however, their high cost inhibits the development of practicable oneshot disposable sensors. When quartz oscillator detectors are used directly in liqu i d ~ [ ~ \u2019 * 861 without a drying stage before the mass-change measurement, the damping of the oscillations must also be taken into account [Eq. (e)]. q = viscosity of the liquid p = density of the liquid pQ = shear modulus of the quartz pQ = density of the quartz The latest st~dies,\u2019~\u2019] which are based on an exact coulometric calibration, show that a 0.41m thick layer of the surrounding liquid moves with the quartz crystal surface during its oscillation. This makes exacting demands on the constancy of all the effects that shift the frequency. The layer of liquid that moves with the surface reduces the mass resolution (i.e. the ability to measure very small mass changes). It should also be mentioned here that a similar device is marketed for determining the densities of liquids ; density changes of the order of a few parts per million can be detected. Surface acoustic wave (SAW) detectors are devices in which acoustic waves are produced at the surface of a suitable material, by setting up appropriate resonance conditions between two surfaces. The resonance frequency is typically a few hundred MHz, and according to the Sauerbrey equation (d) this should result in greater sensitivity. However, this cannot be fully exploited, as it is only possible to measure the change in mass within a very thin layer between the two specially shaped electrodes. The selectivity is governed by the same considerations as above. 2.5. Applications of Chemosensors The use of chemosensors in technology has grown enormously during the past decade. R & D in the field of chemosensors is being energetically pursued worldwide, but especially in Japan. The range of uses of conventional chemosensors extends from chemical process control technology through applications in clinical chemistry to municipal services. A field of special importance for chemosensors is environmental protection, where increased public awareness and ever stricter legislation make it increasingly necessary to set up on-line monitoring systems for environmentally significant gases such as NO, SO,, NH,, CO, or C0,.t88-931 The wide variety of chemosensors that have so far been developed means that in many cases the most suitable one for a particular application can be chosen from a number of alternative constructions. As an example Table 4 lists the various methods of measurement available for determining a single substance, in this case oxygen. The largest market for chemosensors at present is the automobile industry, which even in 1987 required over ten million oxygen sensors (lambda-probes) throughout the world for controlling the operating conditions of the threeway catalytic converter. A similarly large market exists for semiconductor sensors based on SnO, for detecting oxidizable gases such as CO, NO, and CH,, which are used mainly in monitoring instruments (alarm devices) in underground garages, tunnels, and coal mines, and for measuring emissions in industry. Here the poor selectivity is not a serious disadvantage; on the contrary it gives extra safety. Conventional electrochemical sensors too are widely used in measurement and control technology, especially glass pH electrodes, of which about a million are produced every year throughout the The largest areas of use for conventional potentiometric sensors are in medicine and environmental technology. In clinical chemistry, for example, ion-selective sensors have many uses for measurements in biological media.[95 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 527 They have been used successfully for some years to measure concentrations of individual ion species such as NaO, KO, CaZO, and Mg20 in blood. Unlike other methods of analysis such as atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), which always measure the total concentration of the ion species (both free and bound ions), ion-selective sensors allow a direct measurement of the activity of the free ion, which is the effective concentration and the only component that is relevant for medical diagnostic purposes.r1001 Fluoride in urine and blood can be determined by, for example, a LaF, single crystal electrode, which gives an extremely high selectivity for Fe. A knowledge of the fluoride concentration is important in the chemotherapeutic treatment of osteoporosis and kidney disease, and in the determination of the Fe content of the blood after the use of narcotic^.^^'] The detection of traces of cyanide in blood is necessary during treatment of hypertonia with sodium pentacyanonitrosylferrate(i1) (sodium nitroprusside), and this too can be carried out with an ion-selective electrode. Iodide- and bromide-selective sensors are of interest in clinical toxicology, in connection with radioimmunological investigations into the functioning of the thyroid gland (using the iodine-I31 isotope) and the administration of the bromine-containing sleeping drugs, ureides. Use of the latter often causes toxic effects due to metabolic dehalogenation and a dangerous build-up of Bre ions. In treating manic-depressive patients a control of the lithium content is of particular importance; this can be determined using ion-selective membrane electrodes which consist of PVC and a lithium ionophore such as ETH 1810 (N, N-dicyclohexyl-N', Nf-diisobutyl-cis-cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxamide). The non-invasive measurement of the transcutaneous blood CO, partial pressure is a technique that can be used to advantage in operations, in amputational surgery and in sport related medical practice. Here the sensor works on a principle analogous to that of other potentiometric gas sensors such as NH, or SO, detectors. It is essentially a pH probe consisting of a glass electrode and an Ag/AgCl reference electrode. The gas diffuses through a semipermeable membrane into an intermediate electrolyte, whose pH changes according to the gas partial pressure and is measured by the pH electrode. Figure 13 shows a sketch of the sensor. The sensors that have been described are still used mainly for in vitro measurements, but the main research objective is to develop catheter needle electrodes for in vivo measure- cover glass electrode housing electrolyte rese electrolyte gas membrane Fig. 13. Gas sensor for measuring CO, partial pressures in medical applications[95]; the sensor allows transcutaneous measurement of C0,. ments. Figure 14 shows an example of an amperometric catheter electrode for measuring 0, partial ISFETs have proved successful mainly in medical technology. Up to now pH-ISFETs have become commercially available and are used for determining acidity in blood and serum (whose normal pH value is 7.41) and other body fluids. Another technological application is in the photographic industry; here ISFETs are used in process control, to maintain important parameters such as the concentrations of H@ and Ag@ ions at constant levels.[102] The Ektachem film electrodes mentioned earlier (cf. Fig. 4) can be used as one-shot disposable sensors in medical applications. The Kodak Ektachem DT 60 is a commercially available 50 . and can be used for the determination of KO, NaO, Cle and other substances. Figure 15 shows a film sensor of this type for potassium. Potentiometric sensors can be used for environmental protection both in laboratory investigations and on-line applications. One task that they can perform is the continuous monitoring of NO: and NHT concentrations in groundwater and drinking water. This gives early warning of excessive concentrations in the water, allowing the necessary corrective measures to be applied quickly. Figure 16 is an example of a recorder trace obtained with a sensor used to monitor nitrate in drinking water. The trace shows immediately if the maximum legally permitted nitrate concentration of 50 mg L-' (50 ppm) is exceeded. Here the technique of flow injection analysis (FIA) can be used, since the selectivity of the sensor makes a preliminary chromatographic separation unnecessary.\" 041 528 Angew. Chem. Inr. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 100 Table 6. Summary of commercially available sensors - - A 3 min Fig. 16.

In process engineering, ion-selective sensors for Ca2@, Na@, NHF, or CIo can monitor the purity of boiler feed water in steam with a glass electrode for Na@, ppb concentrations are detectable. Monitoring these concentrations is critically important in relation to boiler scale formation and turbine corrosion. Table 5 lists important characteristics of the various types of sensors described here, such as the range of measurement, useful life and detection limits. ISEs that do not incorporate PVC membranes can also be used to a limited extent in nonaqueous media. For example, it is well known in the oil industry that impurities in crude oil feedstocks can adversely affect the refining process, and it is therefore essential to carry out continuous anaIyses.[lo6] Table 6 gives a summary of some commercially available sensors.\" \"1 2.6. Development Trends One should not overlook the fact that the majority of development work on sensors proceeds by methods that are still more or less empirical.

These methods will at the same time provide a deeper insight into the mechanisms of functioning of the selective sensor elements. A changing trend can now be seen in the technology of chemosensors, away from the hitherto conventional sensor design principle based on electrode-like structures, towards miniaturization with recognition systems and signal processing integrated in a single device.\" 12, ' l31 These developments can benefit from the existing technology of microelectronics. Besides savings in materials, this technology can also lead to considerable cost reductions through mass production, and may sometimes even result in sensors with improved proper- ties. Physical sensors for a wide variety of variables are produced by these methods and are already well-known, while chemical sensors made in this way are just appearing on the market. Thick-film technology offers an alternative way of integrating sensor recognition systems and subsequent signal processing on a single chip, and is within the financial budgets of medium-sized industrial concerns. A potentiometric hydrogen sensor based on thick-film technology and developed by the Battelle Institute is shown in Figure 37. The sensitive material is Nasicon (Na, +xZr,Si,P,-,O,,), a solid ionic conductor which responds to hydrogen at elevated temperatures, but is a good Na@ sensor at room temperature and in solutions. This sensor based on Nasicon is at present one of only a few commercially available sensors made by thick-film technology. 3. Biosensors A biosensor combines in a single sensor element the sensitivity of a chemosensor with the selectivity of a biological recognition mechanism. The great promise offered by such a combination has been the subject of increasing research efforts in the last few years, as is evident from the rapid growth in the number ofpublications in this area and the appearance of the first monographs on the A number of different biosensors with biological or biochemical recognition systems coupled to various types of chemosensors have been demonstrated. Although to date biosensors have commercial importance only in medical technology, their use in future in other fields such as environmental monitoring and process engineering is likely. For this reason some relevant developments are described below. Biosensors functioning on enzymic principles belong to the oldest generation of sensors in this category; they employ selective chemical reactions catalyzed by selected enzymes. The most effective method is to immobilize the relevant enzymes in or on the sensor element, which allows the device to be used repeatedly. Unfortunately the stability of enzymes immobilized in this way is at present rather limited, and consequently the lifetime at room temperature under working conditions varies between only a few days and several months, depending on the enzyme used and the immobilizing technique. However, if it is refrigerated and freeze-dried, an immobilized enzyme retains its activity almost indefinitely. Another class of biosensors are immunosensors. These operate on a different principle, namely the selective association between antigens and antibodies. This specific biocomplex formation can be exploited in a number of ways as a means of analysis for one of the two partners. The methods that are of importance for the development of these sensors differ from those involved in radio immuno-assay (RIA), and are based either on enzymic immuno-assay (EIA) in combination with various detection methods (photometry, amperometry, or surface plasmon resonance), or on direct potentiometry . Some of the systems under development function without isolation of biomolecules. In other words, these are enzymic biosensors in which biological materials such as intact cell cultures, tissue sections or microorganisms are used directly without purification; for immunosensors one uses intact receptors, receptor structures or reconstituted units. As the development of biosensors follows on that of transducers or chemosensors, biosensors are not yet at such an advanced stage, and only a few types are commercially available at present. Nevertheless, some important advances have been achieved in each class of biosensors. 3.1. Monoenzyme Sensors Monoenzyme sensors were the first biosensors to be developed, and are the best known. Here an enzyme is coupled to an optical or electrochemical chemosensor, which selectively detects one of the reaction partners of the substrate, or a reaction product. As early as the 1960s with the first enzyme electrodes, immobilization of the enzyme was a development goal. Although the immobilization technique is crucial to the behavior of the biosensor, it will not be considered in detail here. The situation is basically similar to that in bioreactors, where the aim is to achieve a high surface activity combined with a high durability; accordingly, the immobilization techniques used in biosensors are similar to those for bioreactors.[116-'201 However, it must be said that many of the techniques are still far from giving reproducible results. Many preparative procedures evolved by trial and error, and if a breakthrough could be achieved in immobilization without loss of activity, many of the present disadvantages of biosensors would be overcome. The modification of the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD@) can also be regarded as a type of immobilization.t121. 1221 If the effective molecular mass of NAD@ is increased by reaction with polyethylene glycol (PEG) to give PEG-NAD@, the coenzyme can be immobilized behind a dialysis membrane, so that it can be used repeatedly after a recycling procedure. Chemically preactivated membrane filters for simple and rapid immobilization of enzymes have recently become commercially available (Immunodyne, Gelman Sciences). The simplification of the procedure brought about by them could lead to a breakthrough in extending the storage life of biosensors. If a filter membrane freshly coated with the enzyme could be fitted to the sensor shortly before making a measurement, the cost of the biomaterial would be worthwhile in view of the great advantages of a rapid but selective measurement. 3.1 .I . Electrochemical Biosensors In the past the development of monoenzyme biosensors with different transducers was mainly limited to electro- 530 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 chemical sensors. This situation has now changed to some extent through the development of new optodes and of the technique of surface plasmon resonance. Biosensors with electrochemical transducers are still essentially restricted, owing to the nature of the products from enzymic reactions, to two methods of measurement, namely amperometry and potentiometry . Amperometric Biosensors: The majority of biosensors used in research are of the amperometric type. Table7 gives a short summary, which is by no means exhaustive, of the many different types of biosensors using conventional amperometry. Table 7. Amperometric biosensors. Substrate Enzyme Product(s) Range Refs. detected deh ydrogenase choline oxydase alcohol oxidase alcohol malate formiate choline ethanol formaldehyde formaldehyde dehydrogenase glucose glucose oxidase glutamine glutaminase, glutamate oxidase glycerol glycerol dehydrogenase hypoxanthine xanthine oxidase lactate lactate oxidase oligosaccharides glycoamylase, glucose oxidase phenol polyphenol oxidase inorganic nucleoside phosphorus phosphorylase 10-150mmolL-' NADH ( 5 - 1 0 0 ) ~ 1 0 - ~ m o l L - ' [121,124] H,O, 500 mmolL-' [a] [125] NADH mol L-' [a] [126] H,O, 10 mgL-' [a] I1 141 H,02 0-7gL-I [127-1351 H,O, 0-25 mmolL-' ~1361 NADH, O2 11371 H20, 4 - 1 8 0 ~ 1 0 ~ ~ m o l L - ' [138,139] H,O, 0.1-2.5mmolL-' [140] H20, 1-4011Un0lL-' 11141 quinone - 11251 [a] Only the upper limit is known In amperometric transducers, reaction partners or products of the enzymic reaction are directly reduced or oxidized at the working electrode, and the resulting current is measured. From this, on the basis of the stoichiometry, the quantity of the substrate that has reacted can be determined. As is evident from Table 7, the most commonly used transducers are based on the oxygen/hydrogen peroxide electrodes described in Section 2.1.4, since many enzymic reactions (e.g. those of the oxygenases) involve the consumption or production of oxygen. This consumption of 0, or production of H,O, is measured by an 0, electrode. In this area of development considerable time has been invested in the glucose sensor, which is based on reaction ( 3 ) (3) GOD B-D-glucose + 0, -+ H,O -gluconic acid + H,O, catalyzed by the enzyme glucose oxidase (GOD). In this selective reaction three concentration changes can be and have been used to determine the amount of material reacted: 1) the reduction in concentration of the cosubstrate (reduction in O,), 2) the increase in H,O, concentration, or 3) the concentration of the He ions generated by the disso- ciation of the gluconic acid. Greater progress has been made in the area of in-vitro glucose measurements than in any other, which is not surprising in view of the large amount of research effort on this topic (about half of all the papers on biosensors are concerned with glucose measurements). Despite this, however, an implantable glucose sensor, which would be desirable in medical technology, is still not within sight. Implants need to have a lifetime of several years, because if it is shorter the added trauma for the patient as a result of more frequent operations is unacceptable. Up to now the lifetime of the enzyme GOD in synthetic glucose solutions has been at best about 100 days.['231 Among the problems which hinder applications are those arising from the nature of the cosubstrate (the quantity of 0, available for reaction ( 3 ) limit the measurement range), from product inhibition, from the possibility of the enzyme being attacked by proteases, and from diffusion difficulties caused by encapsulation of the implant. Other types of amperometric biosensors are those based on the detection of a coenzyme. Well over 100 enzymic reactions are known in which nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD@) functions as a coenzyme. The direct electrochemical reduction of NAD@ or oxidation of the reduced form NADH have both been successfully demonstrated,['42' 1431 but owing to the very large overvoltage that must be applied (+ 0.7 to + 1.0 V vs. Ag/AgCl), the determination of both species is instead carried out with electron carriers (mediators), which work on the principle shown in Figure 18.[144-1471 A similar situation exists for the coenzyme N A D P ~ . The compounds used as mediators are reversible redox systems with high exchange current densities, often redox dyes such as methylene blue or thionine, or sometimes modified ferrocenes or hexacyanoferrates. The advantages of such a mediator are well-known: it reacts with the coenzyme NAD@ in a homogeneous solution without significant inhibition by kinetic factors, the mediator itself is electrochemically reversible, and it reacts at the electrode at a significantly lower potential than NAD@. Because of the lower working potential fewer interfering effects from other electrolyzable substances in the sample are expected. Ferrocenes have also been used to effect the direct transfer of electrons between the enzyme and the electrode. A modified ferrocene serves as mediator between immobilized glucose oxidase and a graphite e l e c t r ~ d e . ~ ' ~ ~ ~ This glucose sensor, developed at the Cranfield Institute of Technology (UK), is unaffected by O,, as the ferrocene replaces oxygen as the cosubstrate. The sensor can therefore also be used in anaerobic media (e.g. in fermenters). In general the immobi- Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 531 lization of mediators presents difficulties. An immobilization effective enough to prevent loss of the mediator from the transducer with time is usually accompanied by severe deactivation of that mediator. Potentiometric Biosensors: Biosensors with potentiometric transducers can be used in any situation where protons are either generated or removed in the course of the enzymic reaction. Most types are based on a pH electrode, as can be seen from Table 8, which gives a short summary of potentiometric biosensors. A pH measurement is an alternative way of following the glucose conversion reaction (eq. (3)) already described under amperometric biosensors. In this case the change in pH caused by the formation of gluconic acid is measured. Fats may be determined by measuring the change in pH caused by the formation of fatty acids, as listed in Table 8. Though still at the development this method seems to offer great promise, especially in view of the numerous potential applications in food technology. Recently stable lipases which even allow the determination of fats in organic solutions have been isolated. The performance of all biosensors that work by means of a pH measurement is greatly affected by the buffer capacity of the sample solution. A lipophilic layer or membrane between the reaction zone and the buffer system decreases this dependence. Whereas with amperometric sensors, which consume some of the substance being determined during the course of the measurement, deposits of proteins formed on their surface attenuate the signal, with potentiometric sensors only the response time and not the magnitude of the signal is affected, since here the measurement does not consume the substance. This can be a crucial factor in the case of implants. The conversion of aspartam by the enzyme L-aspartase is of interest in connection with the production and use of artificial sweeteners. The NH, generated in the reaction can be determined by the well-known NH, gas electrode. This type of electrode has also been used successfully for some time to determine urea in urine by means of the enzyme urease. The enzymic hydrolysis of urea [reaction (4)], like the oxidation of glucose, allows the use of various chemosensors as transducer. CO(NH,), + 2 H,O 2 NHY + C0:O (4) In aqueous solution the reaction products give the pHdependent equilibria (5) and (6), which provide further spe- NHF + OHe ZII? NH,+H,O (5) C O i e + H @ ZII?

Furthermore, the gases NH, and CO, which may be produced depending on the pH in the reaction zone can be detected by means of the appropriate gas electrodes mentioned above.[1601 A urea sensor as described here can be made in the form of a simple triple-membrane configuration as shown in Figure 19. Conductometry is another electrochemical transducer principle which can be applied to biosensors, since the progress of an enzymic reaction can also be measured by the change in the resistivity of the solution. However, as well as lacking selectivity, this method suffers from the fundamental difficulty that only the total resistivity can be measured and the change in resistivity is caused not only by the reaction, but also by the introduction of an ion-containing medium. A difference method has been proposed by Wut~on.['~'' Con- 532 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 ductometric biosensors for urea and for D-amino acids are described by Rechnitz et a1.['621 3.1.2. Biochips The new microelectronic transducers are becoming increasingly important, as they make it possible to produce one-shot disposable biosensors. This offers a possible solution to the ever-present problems of poor storage properties and short lifetimes of biosensors. Even the problem of sterilization could be solved by sterile sensor elements which are introduced immediately before the measurement. Special mention must be made here of ion-selective field effect transistors (ISFETs), whose small size, particularly, warrants their application as transducers in biosensors, as this factor is of great importance for catheter sensors in medical technology. Enzyme-modified ISFETs, known as ENFETs, consist in many cases of pH-sensitive ISFETs with an enzyme immobilized on their surface; this catalyzes the reaction of a substrate which generates or removes protons. Examples of the use of ENFETs are the determination of glucose)'52* 1631 urea, and penicillins,\" 5 8 * 1651 in which the appropriate enzymes were immobilized on the pH-sensitive surface of the ISFET with glutaraldehyde and bovine serum albumin, or in membranes. To compensate for errors caused by temperature fluctuations or by pH changes from effects other than the enzymic reaction, a differential measurement can be performed with two pH-ISFETs, one coated with the enzyme and one bare, as described in the first German patent for a b i o ~ h i p . [ ' ~ ~ ] The determination of triglycerides has also been performed by a differential measurement, with lipase immobilized in a polyvinylpyrrolidone membrane on the pH-sensitive surface of a pH-ISFET.['661 Table 9 gives a summary of the ENFETs that have been reported. 3.1.3. Optical Transducers In addition to the well-proven electrochemical transducers, optical sensors have recently been exploited to an increasing extent for substrate recognition by enzymic reactions, since fiber-optic spectrophotometers and fluorimeters are now commercially available. The way in which these optical biosensors function will be described here with the help of a few examples. Wolfbeis and T r e f f n ~ k \" ~ ~ ~ have developed a biosensor for glucose determination using the reaction described in Eq. ( 3 ) ; this sensor contains as its transducer an oxygen optode which has already been described in Section 2.3. The glucose oxidase was bound to a nylon membrane by activated carboxyl groups (Immunodyne) and the membrane was attached to the surface of the optode. Another approach of Wolfbeis et al.['68] is based on the intrinsic fluorescence of the enzyme concerned. Enzymes with FAD (flavine adenine dinucleotide) as prosthetic group change their fluorescence properties during the reaction with the substrate, because flavoproteins have different properties in their oxidized and reduced states. This change can be measured with optical fibers that have the enzyme held at their ends by a dialysis membrane. Experiments have been carried out on this system with glucose oxidase, lactate monooxygenase and cholesterol oxidase as enzymes. An optical biosensor has been developed for controlling the biotechnological manufacture of penicillin. This sensor monitors the change in pH caused by the enzymic conversion of penicillin to penicillic acid; the measurement can be performed either electrochemically or optically.['691 For the latter the enzyme penicillinase was immobilized in a polymer together with a pH-indicator, as described in Section 2.3 for pH-optodes. Urea can be determined by an analogous meth- These examples of optical sensors, which are summarized in Table 10, clearly illustrate that, like electrochemical biosensors, nearly all optical sensors depend on just a few basic principles, such as 1 ) the measurement of oxygen concentration by the fluorescence quenching of a dye (transducer: 0, optodes), 2 ) pH-measurements (transducers: pH optodes), and 3) the determination of NADH fluorescence using a bifurcated light-guide. Combining these measurement principles with different enzymes results in biosensors similar to those based on electrochemical transducers. There are no great differences in performance between them. Figure 20 shows the basic design features of an optical biosensor. od.\" 701 3.1.4. Mass-Sensitive Transducers A class of biosensors that have hitherto not been widely used are those based on piezoelectric crystals or surface acoustic wave (SAW) These provide a simple means of detecting changes in mass through the alteration in the resonance frequency of a crystal. If such a transducer is covered with a selectively adsorbing surface or absorbing film, the concentration of the ab- or adsorbed substance can be determined from the change in resonance frequency. Using a 9 MHz piezoelectric quartz crystal, for example, it is theoretically possible to measure mass changes as small as lo-' g. Guilbault et al. describe sensors based on piezoelectric crystals coated with enzymes. The selectivity is provided by the formation of an enzyme-substrate complex, and the sensitivity is given by the stoichiometric mass increase given by the equation of the reaction. With immobilized formaldehyde dehydrogenase,[' \"1 atmospheric formaldehyde concentrations in the range from 1 to 100 ppm can be detected, with choline esterase,\" 731 pesticides in the ppb range. Measurements in liquid media cause greater problems and are controversial. To maintain the theoretical sensitivity described in Equation (d), piezoelectric sensors should be subjected to a reproducible drying step in air before use. 3.2. Multienzyme Sensors The repeated use of expensive coenzymes is possible if they are regenerated by a second enzyme. The recycling method described by Schepers et al.\" 7 4 1 could be applied to many analytes. The fluorescence of the reduced coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) is measured in a flow-through cell using a fiber-optic device. The molecular mass of the NAD@ is increased by binding it onto polyethyleneglycol in order to trap it within the cell, together with an enzyme such as alcohol dehydrogenase, behind a dialysis membrane. When a second enzyme, e.g. lactate dehydrogenase, is also included behind this membrane, it becomes possible to regenerate the NADH by adding pyruvate. However, the need to add this reagent means that the device is no longer a sensor in the narrow sense, because a sensor should work without addition of reagents. Several enzymes, or even a whole enzyme series, could be necessary in cases where a single enzymic reaction step does not yield a substance which can be detected by a transducer.[' 14, 3.3. Biosensors Based on Tissue Sections or Cell Cultures Not only isolated enzymes but also entire groups of intact cells can be used as the basis for biosensors. Compared with the isolated enzymes, these often have the advantage of being active for longer periods, as the enzymes are kept in their natural environment. In this case an additional immobilization step for the coenzymes or cofactors is not necessary. However, such cell groups are often less selective, as they contain mixtures of enzymes. Arnold and R e ~ h n i t z \" ~ ~ ] published a table listing biosensors based on tissues and related materials. NH, or 0, chemosensors are often used as transducers. The principle of these devices will be explained by taking as an example a biosensor for hydrogen peroxide. As bovine liver contains relatively high concentrations of the enzyme catalase, a section of fresh tissue only 0.1 mm thick is immobilized with nylon mesh on the surface of a membrane-covered 0, electrode. The hydrogen peroxide whose concentration is to be determined undergoes enzymic decomposition to oxygen and water, and the oxygen thus produced is measured amperometrically. This sensor is less sensitive to fluctuations in temperature and pH, and has a longer lifetime than a biosensor containing an isolated enzyme.['76] Another device of this kind which is frequently cited is the \"bananatrode\" which has been described by Rechnitz et al.['77] Here a thin slice of banana in front of an 0, sensor is used as a detector for dopamine, which undergoes oxidation by the enzyme polyphenol oxidase present in bananas. The consumption of oxygen is then measured. 3.4. Microbial Biosensors The majority of biosensors based on immobilized microorganisms function with amperometric oxygen sensors as transducers.[' 'I Biosensors for the determination of phosphate, nitrate, nitrite, sulfite, methane, and phenol have recently been described, but none has yet achieved a commercial breakthrough. The determination of phosphate was performed with a sensor based on the microorganism Chlorella vulgaris in immobilized form. An 0, optrode was used to measure the increase in the photocurrent on introducing phosphate. The photocurrent was found to be a function of the phosphate concentration in the range from 8 to 70 mmol L- .I1 791 Karube, Kitagawa et al.\" have developed a microbiological sensor for alcohol using a pH ISFET as a transducer. For this the acetic acid bacterium Gluconobacter suboxydans was immobilized on the ISFET behind a gas-permeable membrane. Ethanol which diffuses in through the membrane is converted to acetic acid by the bacteria. This biosensor can be used for the determination of ethanol in the range from 3 to 70 mmol L-I. 3.5. Immunosensors Antibodies (Ab) and antigens (Ag) (or haptenes) bind specifically and strongly to each other. Techniques for following such reactions in order to determine one of the reac- 534 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 tion partners have up to now relied mainly on labeling one of the immunoreactands. This is the principle used in immunoassays, which are now indispensable in biochemical analysis. Immune reactions are subject to the limitations imposed by the law of mass action. In the equilibrium reaction between the free antigen (Ag) and the antibody (Ab) to form the antigen-antibody complex, the equilibrium ratio between the concentrations of the complex and of the free reaction partners is determined by the affinity constant K [Eq. (f)l. In immunoassays quantitative determinations can be carried out by means of competitive binding tests or sandwich tests. In competitive tests labeled antigens are used. If radioactive labeling is used, the procedure is called a radioimmunoassay (RIA). If instead, an enzyme is covalently bound to the antigen (horseradish peroxidase or alkaline phosphatase are often used), the procedure is called enzyme immunoassay (EIA). The labeled antigen and the antigen to be assayed compete for the binding of the immobilized antibody, and the concentration of the antigen can be determined by comparison with a reaction of a known concentration of the pure antigen. Sandwich tests are carried out with labeled antibodies. When radioactive labeling is used the measurement is described as an immunoradiometric assay (IRMA), whereas if the antibody is attached to an enzyme it is called an enzyme-linked immunosorption assay (ELISA). The antigen which is to be determined binds to an antibody which is immobilized on a support, and is quantitatively determined by means of a second labeled antibody. Both systems have important disadvantages. Purified antibodies and antigens are required. The calibration curves are only linear over a small concentration range. With radioactive labeling there are problems of waste management. Although an immunoassay is simple to perform, it involves a succession of stages, and often a separation step, requiring several hours of work. In the last few years several immunosensors have been developed in which the immunological reaction is measured directly. These sensors use electrochemical, optical, or piezoelectric transducers or capacitance bridges. It should eventually be possible to perform the most important types of immunochemical analysis with disposable sensors.[' ' I Enzyme immunoelectrodes comprise the transducer (electrode), the immune reaction system, and an enzyme indicator and are based on the usual EIA phnciples, except that the product of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction (often H,O,) is detected electrochemically and not by photometry.[182, 1831 Ion-selective membrane electrodes have also been used for the determination of antibodies. The method is described by Rechniiz et al./1841 in which the corresponding antigen is covalently bound to an ionophore of the benzo-crown-ether group and immobilized in a PVC membrane to give an electrode sensitive to alkali metal ions. The change in the potential of the electrode which occurs on adding the appropriate antibody is caused by the alteration of the properties of the ionophore when the antibody binds to the antigen-ionophore complex. Another type of immunosensor is based on the antigen-induced change in the potential of a chemically modified semiconductor surface (TiO,), the mechanism of which is still not understood.t1851 Based on early fundamental studies on potentiometric immunosensors during the period 1978 - 89, the interdisciplinary research center for chemoand biosensors at the Westfaelische Wilhelms University (FRG) has just elucidated the general mechanism of immunologically-induced changes in electrode potential.\" 86* 1871 There are in principle many different antibodies for a particular antigen or haptene, so that a large variety of organic molecules can be selectively determined. If the remaining problems of standardization and storage life can be solved, this analytical technique should revolutionize at least molecular analysis, since a potentiometric immunoassay is fast, sensitive, and extremely economic. Immunosensors based on mass-sensitive transducers (piezoelectric crystals and SAW devices) exploit the mass increase which results from the immune reaction.\" 881 Here again measurements in liquids present problems. Immune reactions at surfaces also alter certain optical properties, on which optical sensors are based. One optical effect that can be used to determine antigens with immobilized antibodies is the change the resonance angle in surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy[' 891 when immunocomplexation forms a film on a silicon or metal oxide base layer. Others are the change in light scattering from a coated glass surface when an immunocomplex is formed,\"901 and changes in the reflection and absorption of a light beam (evanescent wave te~hnique).['~'] A strict definition classifies immunosensors not as true sensors, but as dosimeters, because the immune reactions are not reversible. Under suitable conditions (e.g. by altering the pH) it is possible to break down the biocomplex to recover the antibody and the antigen, allowing a quasi-continuous measurement sequence.['86, l E 7 1 A continuously operating type of immunosensor based on competitive reactions has been developed ; here the analyte and a heterobifunctional complex compete for binding sites on an immobilized antibody!'921 Nonspecific binding is a difficulty which limits the sensitivity of immunosensors in many applications. This problem has been investigated in detail by Cullen and L ~ w e . ~ ' ~ ~ ] 3.6. Biosensors Based on Receptors A very promising approach is the development of biosensors in which individual receptors or receptor structures from living organisms are immobilized on transducers.\" 94] The advantages of receptors over enzymes, for example, lie in very high sensitivities and short response times. It is known, for example, that some marine species can recognize substances at concentrations as low as mol L-' , However, the problems of isolating receptor molecules and of their instability when immobilized are still so great, that this idea must be regarded at present as an interesting approach with potential for future developments. A sensor for the determination of glucose which is based on a receptor protein has been developed by Schultz and Meadows.\"951 This makes use of the competition between glucose and a glucose analogue, a dextran labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC-dextran), for binding sites on Angew. Chem. Int . Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 514-539 535 the glucose receptor protein concanavalin A labeled with rhodamine (Rh-Con A). FITC-dextran and Rh-Con A are sealed in a length of dialysis tube at the end of a bifurcated light guide with a diameter of 100 pm (Fig. 21). Light of a suitable wavelength excites FITC, which fluoresces. If the FITC is connected via the dextran to the Rh-Con A, the energy absorbed by the FITC is transmitted to the rhodamine, which then also fluoresces. If glucose diffuses through the dialysis membrane into the measuring cell, the dextran is partly displaced from its binding sites by the glucose and the measured FITC fluorescence increases, because less energy is transferred from FITC to rhodamine. From increase in fluorescence intensity the glucose concentration can be determined. 3.7. Applications of Biosensors An important technological application of biosensors is the control of fermentation processes. Here it is desirable to measure continuously as far as possible, to ensure optimization of the fermentation process and to minimize the consumption of expensive nutrients. It is particularly important to monitor glucose, ethanol, lactate, cephalosphorins and penicillins. Another area in which biosensors are used, is food technology and food testing. Of interest is the glucose content of wine and fruit drinks,[1961 lactate production during milk processing,[1971 and the freshness of fish, which is measured with a hypoxanthin sensor.[19s1 An area of growing importance is monitoring the quality of water and effluents. Most of the sensors developed so far are based on the combination of microorganisms and transducers. Some sensors serve to determine individual constituents of water, such as phosphate, nitrite, and nitrate,\" '] while others measure composite parameters through their inhibiting effects on microorganisms or enzymes. However, the latter are more like simple early warning systems (screening) than true sensors, as an alarm indication needs to be followed by a more precise analysis. Moreover, these systems work irreversibly. Such warning systems are used in particular to monitor pesticide contents or concentrations of heavy metal ions and the inhibition of the microorganisms is mea- sured by the reduction in CO, production.['991 To obtain a quantity which can be related to the biological oxygen demand (BOD), changes in the respiratory rate of E-ichosporon cutaneum are measured with an oxygen electrode.[z00] A sensor of this type is already in routine operation in Japan. A final example of a field in which biosensors are finding application is medical technology. The most frequently performed analyses are of glucose and lactate, and it is therefore in this area that the most intensive research is being undertaken. The desirability of in-vivo measurements, for example, to control an insulin pump, is giving impetus to the development of miniaturized biosensors. Here of utmost importance is the requirement that the reagents are biocompatible and physiologically harmless. Already a few biosensors, based on electrochemical or optical transducers or on piezoelectric crystal measurements in the gas phase, are commercially available. Analytical instruments have been developed to avoid some problems of biosensors. Here pretreatment of the samples can prolong the life of the sensor. The early commercially available analytical instruments for medical technology are usually based on an oxygen or hydrogen peroxide electrode as a transducer, with an oxidase as the biochemical component. They permit analyses on whole blood for glucose content in the range from 0 to 30 mmolL-' or lactate content from 0 to 15 mmol L-l. A BOD-measuring instrument based on the BOD sensor described earlier is now also available. A list of commercially available analytical instruments based on biosensors can be found in the article by Owen.[201] 4. Outlook This article aimed to give a concise overview of the present state of development of chemical sensors that are already or might become important for chemical, medical, and environmental applications. However it does not claim to be exhaustive. In the field of biosensors alone there are, according to recent CAS on-line searches, over 3000 publications and over 300 patents, although there are at present barely a dozen types of commercially available sensors, of which more than a half are for glucose. One of the main reasons for this striking imbalance with regard to marketing success may be found in the low degree of interdisciplinary cooperation among scientists. Many of the publications go no further than demonstrating a reproducible effect observed for a single chemical substance. Often there is no investigation into the effects of interfering substances, nor an answer to the central analytical question: how accurately and reliably does the sensor measure the substance for which one is analyzing? Reports which only give information on reproducibility, measured on pure synthetic samples containing no interfering constituents, should be avoided in view of the present wealth of knowledge about sources of systematic errors. To an analytical chemist a report on the development of a new analytical method which tells one nothing about matrix effects, and therefore about its absolute accuracy (defined as coincidence with the true content in the sample) is like a report on a synthetic method for a new compound which was identified by elemental analysis alone (i.e. without 536 Angew. Chem. in[ . Ed. Engl. 30 (1991) 516-539 Confirmation by universally recognized and indeed prescribed methods of modern structural analysis). In the field of chemosensor development, as in that of ultra-trace analysis, there is a growing tendency to play down the importance of interfering effects. The disproportionately large amount of research effort devoted to the microelectronic aspects of modern transducers is pointless if not accompanied by a deeper understanding of the mechanisms by which substances are specifically recognized. The fundamental mechanisms of the molecular interactions taking place in these devices cannot be planned and optimized on purely engineering considerations; they depend on natural laws that one can use but cannot alter! In summary it may be concluded that the development of sensors will advances further simply because there is a strong demand for it. The more research effort concentrated on the central problem of a selective molecular recognition, the quicker such advances will be achieved. Our present knowledge of mechanisms indicates that it is necessary to involve chemists from a wide variety of disciplines: theoretical, inorganic, organic, biochemical, analytical, and physico-chemical. The development of new sensors can only progress by an interdisciplinary approach, which must also include the collaboration of biologists, physicists, and medical scientists. At this stage improvement in the transducer properties has a lower priority than improvement in the selectivity of chemosensors and the lifetime of biosensors. The transducers now available have adequate stability and sensitivity, and their full exploitation is prevented only by the laws of physicalchemistry or by shortcomings in the properties of the sensor elements. The basic ideas ofthe novel approach to the theory of ion-selective electrodes described here were developed in 1975 by K. Cammann in his Ph.D. thesis. He would like to thank his academic teachers, Prof. Dr. G. Ertl and Prof. Dr. H . Gerischer, for many discussions and helpful suggestions. During a Humboldt-Fellowship, for which the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation is sincerely thanked, Prof. Dr. S. L. Xie could verifv this far-reaching theory completely by means of the most modern experimental equipment. The basic research in this field during recent years was generously funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) and the Fonds der Chemischen Industrie, which we have much appreciated. Grateful acknowledgement is also given to the Bundesministerium fur Forschung und Technologie (BMFT) for its generous financial help to research in the field of biosensors at Miinster. Last but not least, we owe a debt of gratitude to the State of Nordrhein- Westfalen, which is establishing a research institute for chemical sensors and biosensors (attached to the University of Miinster) in cooperation with the FraunhoferManagement-Gesellschaft (FhM) . The aim of this interdisciplinary institute is to support applied research on all aspects of chemical sensing, including the development of complete measurement systems and monitoring equipment.

Finite element mesh structure for the stress analysis.", "texts": [ " In this study, the hexahedral mesh structure was preferred for static stress analysis. Since the geometry was extensive, the mesh size is selected more frequently in the critical regions for analysis, and a large mesh size was preferred for the less critical parts for the analysis. The mesh structure approximately consists of 38,300 elements and 156,000 nodes. Since the geometry may change slightly for different pressure angles and rim thickness, the number of elements and nodes will also differ. An example of a mesh structure created in this study was shown in Fig. 5. A mesh convergence study was performed to show the reliability of the mesh structure. Five different mesh sizes were used for the FEA, and the maximum bending stress results were obtained for each analysis. The result of the mesh independency study for 14000, 17000, 24000, 38300, and 53,500 elements, as shown in Fig. 6. Up to 38,300 elements, the stress was continually decreasing. It is seen that the stress changes very little in 53,500 elements.

The experimental setup.", "texts": [ " In downhand welding, it is obvious that the gravitational force helps to suppress the accumulation of weld metal [39]. However, the effect of gravitational force is different in the positional deposition, instead of driving the molten metal to backfill the gouging area, the metal flow trends downward as shown in Fig. 5. The momentum of the backward stream of molten weld metal has been increased greatly by the influence of gravity, resulting in a poor positional capability of multi-directional WAAM. Fig. 6 presents the setup of the robotic WAAM system for the investigation of humping issue in a positional deposition. Its main components include a 6-axis ABB industrial robot with a positioner, a Fronius TPS 4000 CMT Advanced welding unit, a personal computer, two CCD cameras, an infrared pyrometer, and a laser scanner. In this study, the ABB IRB 2600 industrial robot with six Degrees of Freedom (DoF) was used to hold the welding torch. A two-DoF workpiece positioner was employed to keep base plate vertical for the positional deposition", " Two CCD cameras were mounted on the welding torch to capture the molten pool formation behaviour. A structured light laser scanner was integrated into the robotic welding system to measure the height of the multi-layer thin-walled structure for updating the robot path. In addition, an infrared pyrometer was used to monitor the inter- pass temperature. A data acquisition unit and a personal computer serve as the master control for the welding machine, robot, positioner, camera, and laser scanner. As shown in Fig. 6, the vision system includes two CCD cameras mounted on the robotic arm to capture the side-view and the top-view of the weld bead separately. In addition, Fig. 7 demonstrates the basic concept of CMT process, the detailed metal transfer process can be divided into three steps; 1) the metal melting phase Fig. 7(a), 2) the background current phase/wait phase Fig. 7(b), and 3) the short-circuiting phase Fig. 7(c) [52]. In the metal melting phase, it is hard to observe the profile of the molten pool due to the illumination of the arc core when electrical arc forms" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003832_0094-5765(88)90189-0-Figure1-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003832_0094-5765(88)90189-0-Figure1-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 1.

The dimensions of the bodies are much smaller compared to the lengths of the tethers and hence, the bodies can be approximated as point 1059 masses. The mass of the tether(s) is assumed to be negligible. The instantaneous centre of mass C is assumed to follow a circular orbit. The orbital coordinate axes x, y, z located at C are such that z-axis is directed towards the centre of the Earth and x-axis is in the direction of flight. The length of the tether between one end-mass mt and the middle mass m 3 is denoted by l~. Similarly, 12 denotes the length of the tether joining the middle mass to the other end-mass. Two possible situations are considered here: (i) l~ and /2 are independent of each other, as in the case of a tethered constellation; (ii) Ii and l 2 add up to a constant, i.e. It +12 = It (total tether length). The latter corresponds to the case of mass transportation from one end to the other. The formulation for case (i) is considered first; that for case (ii) is slightly different due to the constraint equation and is considered later. 2.1. Equations o f motion when l I and 12 are independent The motion is assumed to be confined to the orbital plane; thus only the co-ordinates x~ and zi, i = 1, 2, 3, are nonzero. Furthermore, since C is the centre of mass of the system, 3 3 E m i x i = O, E mizi = 0 . ( 1 ) i = 1 i = 1 Because of the two constraint eqns (1), the motion can be described by four independent generalized co-ordinates; here they are chosen as ll, 12, 01 and 0 z as shown in Fig. 2, 01 and 02 being the angles of inclination of the two tethers to the local vertical. From geometry, Xl = It sin 01 + x3, Zl = 11 cos 01 + z3 (2a) x2 = - (l: sin 02 - x3), z2 = - (lz cos 02 - z3).

Similarly, there are recommendations for die closure, frequency and amplitude of oscillation, and temperature control. Although not mentioned in the standard, a sealed cavity in a moving die instrument is more difficult from an engineering point of view but can be advantageous in retaining a positive pressure. ASTM D 5289\u0302 ^\u0302 for rotorless curemeters, although rather more specific, is overall very similar to ISO 6502 in technical requirements. The British standard* \u0302 ^ is identical to ISO 6502. Norman*'\u0302 gave a valuable discussion of the problems with curemeters, pointing out that there is no one level of cure which gives optimum values for all physical properties and no satisfactory procedure for dealing with a \"marching modulus\". He also listed problems such as non-uniform temperature distribution, possible slip of the test piece over rotor or cavity and porosity. Test on unvulcanized rubbers 87 In a practical instrument, there must be some time lag to reach thermal equilibrium When the oscillating disc curemeter superceded the reciprocating paddle type it brought one disadvantage in that it had a larger unheated mass in the disc and, hence, had greater thermal lag. Hands and Horsfall\u0302 \"\u0302\u0302 used an isothermal apparatus to obtain basic cure rate data and developed a mathematical cure model for predicting cure distributions in non-isothermal conditions, as in industrial processes. The rotorless curemeter is shown, for example by Hands et al*^^ to more approximate isothermal conditions than both other types because of the absence of an unheated rotor and a thin test piece, hence giving more accurate predictions for fast curing materials. It is essentially this factor which resulted in the rotorless type of instrument rapidly becoming the most popular. Rosco and Vergnaud^^^ determined the limitations of moving die curemeters under isothermal conditions by considering the temperature and degree of cure profiles through EPDM samples. Clearly, cure meters will not always agree due to their differing thermal characteristics. Because the Mooney is often used to measure scorch, it is worth noting a comparison between Mooney and curemeter scorch made by Bristow^^^ in which he found poor correlation for higher curing temperatures. Hands et al^'^ Sezna '\u0302\u0302 and Ahmad and Soo\u0302 ^\u0302 give comparisons between different curemeters and indicate how older instruments differ from more recent ones. The effects of thermal parameters is briefly considered in an annex to ISO 6502. The oscillating die cure meters are a type of dynamic test and the use of sophisticated forms of the apparatus offers the possibility of alternative measures of cure parameters. Dick and Pawlowski\u0302 ^^ demonstrate the subtle changes detectable by such instruments and consider alternative measures of scorch and cure characteristics which can be used. It has been suggested that the maximum cure rate may sometimes have advantage over the more usual cure parameters*^^ and consideration given to curemeter testing for cure of thick sections^^ .\u0302 Curemeters are usually run under isothermal conditions to determine cure parameters at the temperature(s) of interest. Rosea and Vergnaud^^^ investigated the use of a temperature ramp as being a more efficient way of obtaining kinetic parameters. The sophisticated oscillating die instruments can continue the measurement of dynamic properties after full cure has been reached. ASTM D660l'^'^ covers measurements both during and after cure. A sealed cavity instrument is specified with amplitude \u00b1 0.2^ during cure and \u00b1 1 to \u00b1 100% strain after cure.

Each leg is covered by an inner and an outer metal electrode, which force the ceramic to change its length when a voltage is applied. In order to be able to bend a leg, the outer electrode is divided into four segments, axially arranged every 90\u25e6 (Figure 7, left).

Tooth profile, N=36, ~s=20\u00b0.", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "Of all the many types of machine elements which exist today, gears are among the most commonly used. The basic idea of a wheel with teeth is extremely simple, and dates back several thousand years. It is obvious to any observer that one gear drives another by means of the meshing teeth, and to the person who has never studied gears, it might seem that no further explanation is required. It may therefore come as a surprise to discover the large quantity of geometric theory that exists on the subject of gears, and to find that there is probably no branch of mechanical engineering where theory and practice are more closely linked. Enormous improvements have been made in the performance of gears during the last two hundred years or so, and this has been due principally to the careful attention given to the shape of the teeth. The theoretical shape of the tooth profile used in most modern gears is an involute. When precision gears are cut by modern gear-cutting machines, the accuracy with which the actual teeth conform to their theoretical shape is quite remarkable, and far exceeds the accuracy which is attained in the manufacture of most other types of machine elements. The first part of this book deals with spur gears, which are gears with teeth that are parallel to the gear axis. The second part describes helical gears, whose teeth form helices about the gear axis. The book is primarily about involute gears, since this type of gear is by far the most commonly used. However, the first chapter introduces the Law of Gearing, which must be satisfied by any pair of gears, and the statements made apply not only to involute gears, but are also true for non-involute types of gear. There is one other chapter of the book which also deals with non-involute gears. Chapter 9 is on the general theory of gear tooth geometry, and 2 Introduction is included in the book simply because the tooth profiles of involute gears contain sections which are not involute. In particular, the part of each tooth near its root, known as the fillet, is not an involute, but its shape can be found from the general theory of gears. And in some gears, small alterations from the involute shape, known as profile modifications, are made in the teeth, and again the final shape of the teeth can be found by means of the general theory. In helical gears, the angle between the helix tangent and the gear axis is known as the helix angle. Spur gears can be regarded as helical gears, in which the helix angle is zero. Since a spur gear is therefore simply a special case of a helical gear, it might be asked why the two types should be dealt with separately. However, the geometry of spur gears is considerably simpler than that of helical gears, and it is therefore convenient to describe it first. The cross-section of a helical gear perpendicular to its axis, known as its transverse section, is the same as the cross-section of a spur gear, so a knowledge of spur gear geometry makes a good starting point for the study of helical gears. The treatment of spur gear theory in this book is fairly conventional, except in one respect. No distinction is made between a gear pair meshed at the standard center distance, and one at extended centers. The terminology and the notation are the same for both cases. In conformity with this principle, the name \"pitch circle\" is always used for the circle of a gear which passes through the pitch point, and its radius is always represented by the symbol Rp' whatever its value. It is important to make a clear distinction between the pitch circle when a gear is in operation, and the pitch circle when it is meshed with its basic rack, which is used as a reference circle. For this reason, the pitch circle when the gear is meshed with its basic rack is called the standard pitch circle, and its radius is labelled Rs' where the subscript s is used to indicate the word \"standard\". Apart from this change, the definitions and notation in this book have been chosen to conform as closely as possible with those used in current North American practice. However, a few additional alterations have been made, in cases where Introduction 3 the existing terminology is confusing. For example, the phrase \"pre'ssure angle\" is used at present for several different angles. Its original meaning is the angle between the line of action and the common tangent to the pitch circles, but it is used also for the angle between the tooth profile and the tooth center-line of a rack, and the angle between the radius and the profile tangent of a gear tooth at either the standard pitch circle or the pitch circle. In addi t ion, the angle between the radi us and the prof i Ie tangent at a typical radius R of the tooth profile is also commonly known as the pressure angle. In current usage, all these angles are called either the pressure angle or the operating pressure angle, and they are all represented by the symbol ~ when they are equal to the pressure angle of the basic rack, and ~' when they are not. Over the years, several attempts have been made to rename some of these angles, but the proposed alternative names have not been widely accepted, so in this book the name \"pressure angle\" has generally been retained, while the notation has been altered to help identify the particular angle that is referred to. The angle between the radius and the profile tangent at a typical point of the gear tooth profile is referred to as the profile angle at radius R, and it is represented by the symbol ~R' The profile angles of a gear at the standard pitch circle and the pitch circle are called the pressure angle and the operating pressure angle of the gear, with the symbols ~s and ~P' and the pressure angle of the basic rack is represented by the symbol ~r' Finally, the angle between the line of action and the common tangent to the pitch circles is called the operating pressure angle of the gear pair, and this is the only angle for which the customary symbol ~ is still used. The symbols for the different pressure angles are distinguished by their subscripts, and the same convention is used for all quantities, such as the circular pitch and the tooth thickness, whose values are functions of the radius. The subscripts R, s, p, or b are used whenever a quantity is measured on a gear tooth at a general radius R, at the standard pitch circle, at the pitch circle, or at the base circle, and the subscript r applies to the corresponding quantity measured on a rack tooth. 4 Introduction The second part of the book deals with the geometry of helical gears, and the treatment differs substantially from the traditional approach. The sUbject is essentially three-dimensional, and in the past the geometr ic theorems have usually been proved with the help of projective geometry. In other fields of mechanics, projective geometry has been largely superseded by vector methods, and in the author's opinion, most of the theorems relating to helical gears can be proved far more easily using vector algebra than using projective geometry. The entire description of helical gears in this book is therefore given with the help of vector theory. I t is believed that most younger engineers, and today's engineering grounding in vector students, receive a more thorough theory than they do in projective geometry, and should therefore find thi s new approach to helical gear geometry easier to understand. The word \"pitch\" is used in this book in a manner which differs slightly from the customary North American usage, and is in fact based on current European practice. In North America, the phrase \"circular pitch\" describes a particular length on a spur gear, while \"diametral pitch\" is a quantity used to indicate the tooth size, defined as the number of teeth divided by the diameter of the standard pitch circle. The original meaning of the word \"pitch\" is the distance between similar objects that are repeated at regular intervals. In this book, the word is only used in a manner which conforms with the original meaning. The of a spur gear is defined in the usual circular pi tch way, and the corresponding lengths in a helical gear are called the transverse pitch, the normal pitch, and the axial pitch. In general, the diametral pitch is not referred to in this book, since it is not a pitch in the sense described above. In order to specify the tooth size of a gear we use the module, which is the method used throughout Europe and Japan. However, since the diametral pitch is still in common use in North America, the relation between the module and the diametral pitch is described in the text, and the diametral pitch is used in some of the examples at the end of each chapter. A list of references is provided, and this consists of a number of books and articles which the author has found Introduction 5 particularly helpful in his own study of gear geometry. In addition, several articles are listed because they describe, in considerable detail, certain topics which are only outlined in this book. The list is not intended to include all possible references, and no attempt has been made in the text to identify a source for each idea or theorem. In some cases, it would probably be very di ff icult to di scover where a particular idea originated. When any reference is quoted in the text, it is identified by a number in square brackets, which refers to the number in the list of references at the end of the book. In the diagrams throughout the book, the gear tooth profiles were drawn by a computer-driven plotter. The remaining parts of the diagrams were drawn by Mr. Hiroshi Yokota, of the University of Alberta. The author would like to thank him for his excellent work. The author also wishes to express his appreciation to the University of Alberta, and to the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, both of whom provided support for the project. This book is about the theoretical geometry of involute gears, and is not intended to replace the many books and manuals that exist on the design of gears. However, the full potential of the involute as a tooth profile can only be used by a designer who has a good understanding of its fundamental geometric properties. It is hoped that the book will contribute to that understanding. PART 1 SPUR GEARS Chapter 1 The Law of Gearing External and Internal Gears A spur gear is a gear cut from a cylindrical blank, with teeth which are parallel to the gear axis, as shown in Figure 1.1. If the teeth face outwards, the gear is called an external gear, and if they face inwards, like those of the gear shown in Figure 1.2, the gear is known as an internal gear. Much of the geometric theory of gears applies equally to both external and internal gears. However, for the sake of clarity, this book is restricted to the subject of external gears, except for a single chapter. The exception is Chapter 12, where we will show which parts of the theory of external gears are valid for internal gears, and we will discuss the special features that apply only to internal gears. The Requirement for a Constant Angular Veloci ty Ratio When two gears rotate together, as shown in Figure 1.3, the teeth of each gear pass in and out of mesh with those of the other gear, and this occurs in an area that lies somewhere between the gear centers C1 and C2 . The teeth from the two gears pass through the meshing area alternately, first one from gear 1, then one from gear 2, and so on. Hence, if the gears have N1 and N2 teeth, and during a certain time interval T the number of teeth from each gear passing through the meshing area is n, then the gears will make respectively (n/N 1) and (n/N2) revolutions. By expressing the number of '0 The Law of Gearing Figure'. ,. An external gear. revolutions in radians and dividing by the time taken, we obtain average- values for the gear angular velocities w, and w2 , (w, ) average (w2 )average (...!l.)211' N, T _ (...!l.) 211' N2 T Figure '.2. An internal gear. ( 1.1) (1. 2) Constant Angular Veloci ty Ratio 11 where the minus sign indicates that the direction of rotation for gear 2 must be opposite to that of gear 1. From Equations (1.1 and 1.2), we can immediately obtain a relation between the average angular veloc i ties, - N (w ) 2 2 average ( 1. 3) Equation (1.3) is true for all gears, whatever the shape of the teeth. However, if the tooth shape is arbitrary, the gears will not run smoothly. Suppose gear 1 is driving, and turns at a constant angular velocity. In general, the angular veloci ty of gear 2 wi 11 not be constant, but wi 11 be a periodic function, repeating itself as each pair of teeth are meshed, with an average value given by Equation (1.3). The variation in angular veloci ty of gear 2 leads to vibrations in the gear train, and will generally cause fatigue cracks to form in the teeth, resulting in early failure of the gears. Theoretical studies of gear tooth profiles date back to the 16th Century, but for many years the craftsmen who cut gears made no use of the knowledge that was available. Most machinery was quite slow-moving, and vibration was not considered important. Toward the end of the 18th Century, 12 The Law of Gearing machine designers began to make greater demands on the gears in the machines they bui It. The gears turned faster than before, and were more heavily loaded. Tooth breakage then developed into a serious problem, and it became necessary to choose tooth profiles which would allow the driven gear to maintain a constant angular velocity, whenever the driving gear angular velocity was constant. To achieve this end, the angular velocity ratio (w 1/w2 ) must remain constant at all times, and not simply on average, as described by Equation (1.3). The new requirement for the angular veloci ties can be expressed by the equation, ( 1 .4) The purpose of this chapter is to determine the condition that must be satisfied by the meshing tooth prof i les, if the gears are to have the constant angular velocity ratio given in Equation (1.4). However, before looking at the case of two gears meshing together, we will consider that of a gear meshing with a rack. Rack and Pinion Rack and Pinion 13 A rack is a segment of a gear whose radius is infinite. I f the number of teeth N2 of gear 2 in Figure 1.3 were extremely large, the radius of the gear would also be large, relative to the tooth size, and the teeth near the meshing area would lie almost on a straight line. In the limit, as N2 becomes infinite, the teeth would lie exactly on a straight line, as shown in Figure 1.4. When two gears mesh, the smaller of the two is called the pinion, and the larger is usually referred to as the gear. Any gear meshed with a rack is considered smaller than the rack, since the rack is part of a gear with an infinite number of teeth. Hence, it is common to speak of a rack and pinion. Whereas a gear pair is used to transmit rotary motion between shafts, a rack and pinion are used to convert rotary motion into linear, or vice-versa. One well-known application is the rack and pinion steering of many automobiles. Part of a rack is shown in Figure 1.5. The pitch p is the distance between corresponding points of adjacent teeth. If we draw any line along the rack parallel to the line of teeth, 14 The Law of Gearing the intersection of this line with the tooth profiles will determine the tooth thickness and the space width, measured along that particular line. We define the rack reference line as the line along which the tooth thickness and the space width are equal, and since their sum is equal to the pitch p, the tooth thickness and the space width measured along the rack reference line must each be equal to (p/2). We now introduce coordinates xr and Yr fixed in the rack, with their origin on the rack reference line. The xr axis lies along a tooth center-line, and the Yr axis coincides with the rack reference line, as shown in Figure 1.5. A typical point of the rack tooth profile is labelled Ar' and the tangent to the tooth profile at this point makes an angle ~Ar with the x axis. The angle ~Ar is called the rack profile angle a~ point Ar \u2022 In relating the rack velocity to the pinion angular velocity, the reasoning is identical to that used earlier for two gears. During any time interval T, the number n of rack teeth passing through the meshing area is equal to the number of pinion teeth which pass through. Thus, average values for the rack velocity vr and the pinion angular velocity ware given by the following expressions, (W)average !!E T ( 1. 5) ( 1. 6) where vr is defined as positive in the upward direction, and W is defined as positive when the angular velocity is counter-clockwise. The relation we require is obtained by eliminating (niT) from Equations (1.5 and 1.6). N 21r(w)average ( 1. 7) Equation (1.7) is exactly analogous to Equation (1.3). As with a pair of gears, the satisfactory operation of a rack and pinion requires that the relation between vr and w should remain constant. Hence, the tooth shapes must be such that vr and w satisfy the following equation, . Ar Ar - 51n IP n - cos IP n t ~ ( 1. 9) Since Ar is the contact point, the unit vector nnr lies in the direction of the common normal. The velocity of Ar' and its component along the common normal, are given by the following two equations, 16 The Law of Gearing A - cos ~ r v r (1.10) (1.11) where the dot indicates the scalar product between two vectors. If the vector from the pinion center C to point A is (xnE+Yn~), then the velocity of point A and its component along the common normal can be expressed as follows, VA wnS x (xnE+Yn~) - wYne + wxn~ (1.12) A nnr vA . Ar Ar (1.13) vn wY Sln ~ - wX cos ~ where the symbol x in Equation (1.12) indicates the vector product. We now equate the normal velocity components of Ar and A, given by Equations (1.11 and 1.13), and use Equation (1.8) to express the relation we require between vr and w. We then obtain the following equation that must be satisfied by X and Y, the coordinates of the contact point. Rack and Pinion y (x - ~) 211\" A cot 1/1 r 17 (1.14) Equation (1.14) can be interpreted in the following manner. There is a fixed point P, at a distance (Np/211\") from C on the line through C perpendicular to the rack reference line, such that the slope of line PA is equal to cot I/IAr \u2022 This means that line PA makes an angle (11\"/2 _I/iAq with the n~ direction, and it is therefore the common normal at the contact point A, since the common tangent makes an angle I/IA r with the n~ direction. The position of point P is shown in Figure 1.7. The result just proved is known as the Law of Gearing, as it relates to a rack and pinion. It may be stated in the following way. The condition that must be satisfied by the tooth profiles of a rack and pinion, in order that the relation between rack velocity and pinion angular velocity should remain constant, is that the common normal at the contact point should at all times pass through a fixed point P. The position of P is at a distance (Np/211\") from the pinion center C, on the perpendicular from C towards the rack reference line. The point P is called the pitch point. The circle passing through P whose center is at C is called the pinion pitch circle, and its radius Rp is equal to the length CP, (1.15) In Equation (1.8), we gave the relation that we require between the rack velocity and the pinion angular velocity. We used that relation to prove the Law of Gearing, which lead us to define the pitch point and the pinion pitch circle. Having now derived an expression in Equation (1.15) for the pitch circle radius, we can combine Equations (1.8 and 1.15), and we obtain a simpler form for the relation between the rack velocity and the pinion angular velocity, (1.16) The line in the rack which touches the pinion pitch circle at P, as shown in Figure 1.7, is known as the rack 18 The Law of Gearing pitch line. When the pinion and rack are in motion, the velocity of any point on the pinion pitch circle is equal to RpW, and the velocity of any point on the rack pitch line is equal to vr ' Since these velocities are equal, as we can see from Equation (1.16), the motion of a rack and pinion is identical to the motion that would be obtained if the rack pitch line and the pinio~ pitch circle were to make rolling contact with no slipping. Ci rcular pi tch The circular pitch of the pinion teeth at any radius R is defined as the distance between corresponding points of adjacent teeth, measured around the circumference of the circle of radius R. Thus, the circular pitch PR at radius R, which is shown in Figure 1.8, is given by the following expression, 211'R N (1.17) In the case when the circular pitch is measured on the pitch Circular pitch. Law of Gearing for Two Gears circle, we use the symbol Pp' and its value can substituting Rp in place of R in Equation (1.17). 211'Rp Pp N 19 be found by (1.18) When we replace the pitch circle radius Rp in this equation by the expression given in Equation (1.15), it is clear that the circular pitch of the gear at its pitch circle is equal to the pitch p of the rack, p (1.19) This result can be used to provide an alternative definition of the pitch circle of a pinion, when it is meshed with a rack. The pitch circle can be defined as the circle on which the pinion circular pitch is equal to the rack pitch p. Law of Gearing for Two Gears It was shown in the previous section that a rack and pinion behave in the same manner as if the rack pitch line and the pinion pitch circle were to make rolling contact with no 20 The Law of Gearing slipping. We now investigate whether the same idea can be used for two gears. First, we find two pitch circles which, if they made rolling contact with each other, would provide the same angular velocity ratio as the gears. And then we will establish that the Law of Gearing also applies for a pair of gears, or in other words, that the common normal at the tooth contact point always passes through a fixed point. Figure 1.9 shows two gears, with point Al of gear 1 in contact with point A2 of gear 2. The distance C between the gear centers is called the center distance. Parts of the pitch circles have been drawn in, and their radii are shown as RPl and Rp2 . The point where they touch is the pitch point P. If the pitch circles are to make rolling contact with no slipping, their radii must satisfy the following equations, C (1.20) (1.21) The angular velocity ratio that we require was given in Equation (1.4), (1.22) Equations (1.21 and 1.22) imply that the ratio of the pitch circle radii is equal to the ratio of the tooth numbers, ( 1. 23) We now solve Equations (1.20 and 1.23), to obtain the radii of the pi tch ci rc les, ( 1 .24 ) (1.25) The pitch point P, which is the point where the pitch circles touch, therefore lies on the line of centers and divides C1C2 in the ratio N1:N2 . We use this point as the origin of a fixed system of coordinates E, ~ and S, with axes Law of Gearing for Two Gears 21 in the directions shown in Figure 1.9. The position of the contact point relative to the pitch point is then given by the coordinates ~ and 1/. As we did in the case of the rack and pinion, we write down the velocities of points Al and A2 , and then equate their components along the common normal. The direction nn of the common normal, which is unknown at present, can be written in the following form, where s~ and s1/ are the components of nn in directions. Then the velocities of Al and components in the normal direction, are following four equations. Al v = w 1nS x [(Rpl+~)n~+1/n1/] A2 v (1.26) the coordinate A2 , and their given by the ( 1. 29) ( 1 .30) A A Equating the expressions for vn 1 and vn 2 , we obtain a relation which must be satisfied by the vector components s~ and s1/' o (1.31) The expression between the square brackets is zero, as we can see from Equation (1.21). The angular velocities w1 and w2 can never be equal, because for a pair of external gears the angular velocities must be of opposite sign, and for a pinion meshed with an internal gear, the pinion angular velocity must be greater than that of the internal gear. Hence, the term (w 1-w2 ) cannot be zero, and it follows that the remaining term is zero. The condition given by Equation (1.31) therefore reduces to the following form, 22 The Law of Gearing ( 1. 32) Equation (1.32) can be interpreted as showing that the unit vector nn along the common normal is parallel to line PA 1. In other words, the common normal at the contact point must always pass through the pitch point, which is the point that divides the line of centers C1C2 in the ratio N1 :N2 \u2022 This is the statement of the Law of Gearing, as it applies to a pair of gears. We proved in Equation (1.19) that when a pinion is meshed with a rack, the circular pitch of the pinion at its pitch circle is equal to the pitch of the rack. A similar result is also true for a pair of gears. The circular pitch of each gear at its pitch circle is given by Equation (1.18), Pp1 211'Rp1 N1 ( 1. 33) Pp2 211'Rp2 N2 (1.34) When we use Equations (1.24 and 1.25) to express the pitch circle radii RP1 and Rp2 ' it is immediately clear that the circular pitches of the two gears must be equal, (1.35) Path of Contact The locus of successive contact points between a pair of teeth is called the path of contact. One consequence of the Law of Gearing is that the path of contact must pass through the pitch point. To prove this statement, we need only consider the situation if it were not true. If the path of contact were to cross the line of centers at any point P' which is not the pitch point, then when the contact point was at P', the common normal at the contact point would not pass through the pitch point, and the gear pair would not satisfy the Law of Gearing. The Basic Rack 23 Conjugate Profiles and the Basic Rack Any pair of tooth profiles that satisfy the Law of Gearing are said to be conjugate. If the tooth profile of one gear is chosen arbitrarily, it is possible to find a tooth profile for the other gear, such that the two profiles are conjugate. In particular, we can specify a rack tooth profile, and then define a system of gears as having tooth profiles which are conjugate to the chosen rack. This is the method generally used by various organisations, such as the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) and the International Organisation for Standardization (ISO), to define the tooth profiles for a system of gears. The rack tooth profile is then known as the basic rack for the system of gears. In the next chapter, we will consider a particular basic rack, which is the one used to define the tooth profile of an involute gear, and we will then describe the geometry of the gear teeth. Chapter 2 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear Basic Involute Rack In general, the tooth profile of a rack may be curved, and the profile angle ~Ar would then vary from one point of the tooth to another. We now consider a particular rack, in which the teeth are straight-sided. This is the basic rack which we use to define the tooth shape of an involute gear. The profile angle for this rack is constant, and the value of the constant will be represented by the symbol ~r' which is called the pressure angle of the basic rack. Thus, for the basic rack used to define involute tooth profiles, constant (2.1) In some cases the profile angle ~Ar may vary near the tips and the roots of the basic rack teeth. For example, the teeth may be rounded at the tips. The rack is still called an involute rack, provided a substantial part of its tooth profile is straight-sided. For the purpose of finding the shape of the gear tooth, we will start by assuming that the basic rack has teeth which are entirely straight-sided, as shown in Figure 2.1. The pressure angle is ~r' and we use the symbol Pr to represent the pitch of the basic rack. Base Pi tch of the Basic Rack The dimensions of the basic rack are determined by the values of Pr and ~r' In addition, there is a third quantity shown in Figure 2.1 called the rack base pitch, which is Standard pitch Circle 25 defined as the distance between adjacent teeth, measured along a common normal. The reason why this particular length on a rack is called the base pitch will be made clear later in this chapter. For the moment, we will simply use Figure 2.1 to express the base pitch Pbr of the basic rack in terms of its pi tch and pressure angle, (2.2) The three quantities Pr' Pbr and 4J r are the parameters used to describe the basic rack. Since they are related by Equation (2.2), it is clear that only two of the quantities are independent. We can choose any two, and then use Equation (2.2) to find the third. Standard Pi~ch Circle For any tooth profile, there are a number of quantities whose values are functions of the radius R. These include the circular pitch PR' which was introduced in Chapter 1, and the profile angle and the tooth thickness, which will be 26 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear discussed later in this chapter. As part of the description of a gear, it is necessary to provide the values of each of these quantities at some specified radius. An obvious choice for this radius is the pitch circle radius of the gear when it is meshed with its basic rack. In Chapter 1 we defined the pitch circle of a gear as the circle through the pi tch point, and we used the symbol Rp to represent its radius. We showed there that the value of Rp depends on the pitch of the rack, when the gear is meshed with a rack, and on the center distance when the gear is meshed with another gear. In order, therefore, to identify the particular pitch circle of a gear when it is meshed with its basic rack, we will call it the standard pitch circle, and we will represent its radius by the symbol Rs' In Equations (1.15 and 1.18), we gave expressions for the pitch circle radius of a gear when it is meshed with an arbitrary rack, and for the circular pitch measured at the pitch circle, We also showed, in Equation (1.19), that the circular pitch at the pitch circle is equal to the pitch p of the rack, When we replace the rack pitch p in these equations by Pr' the pitch of the basic rack, the first two equations give the standard pitch circle radius Rs of a gear, and its circular pi tch p at the standard pi tch ci rcle, while. the thi rd s equation shows that the circular pitch of the gear at its standard pitch circle is equal to the pitch of the basic rack, RS NPr (2.3) 21r Ps 211'Rs N (2.4) Ps Pr (2.5) Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear 27 The Involute Tooth Profile We will now determine the shape of gear tooth profiles which are conjugate to the basic rack in Figure 2.1. The word conjugate means, as we defined it in Chapter 1, that the gear teeth are shaped in such a manner that the Law of Gearing is satisfied, when the gear is meshed with the basic rack. In Figure 2.2, a pinion is shown meshing with the basic rack. The plnlon pitch circle radius is Rs' given by Equation (2.3), and the pitch line is the line in the basic rack which touches the pinion pitch circle at the pitch point P. The Law of Gearing states that the common normal at the contact point must pass through P. For any particular position of the rack, there is only one point Ar of the rack tooth profile whose normal passes through P, and this point must be the contact point. The pinion tooth must therefore be shaped so that its profile touches the rack tooth at Ar \u2022 28 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear The point of the pinion tooth profile in Figure 2.2 which coincides with Ar is labelled A. The line joining the contadt point to the pitch point is called the line of action, since it coincides with the common normal at the contact point, and therefore in the absence of friction the contact force must act along this line. The angle between the line of action and the tangent to the pinion pitch circle at P is called the operating pressure angle ~ of the gear pair. Since the line of action is perpendicular to the tooth profile of the basic rack, it can be seen from the diagram that, when a gear is meshed with its basic rack, the operating pressure angle of the gear pair is equal to the pressure angle of the basic rack, (2.6) If we were to consider the basic rack in a new position, the description of the meshing geometry would be essentially a repetition of the last paragraph. The new contact point would again lie on the line which passes through the pitch point in a direction perpendicular to the tooth profile of the basic rack. This result is true for any position of the basic rack. Hence, the path of contact, which is the locus of all contact points, is a segment of the same straight line. And since the line of action is always the line joining the pitch point to the contact point, the direction of the line of action is fixed, and the line of action coincides with the line containing the path of contact. We now construct the perpendicular from the pinion center C to the line of action, and the foot of this perpendicular is labelled E, as shown in Figure 2.2. The pinion circle with center C and radius equal to CE is known as the base circle, and its radius is represented by the symbol Rb \u2022 Since the rack tooth profile and line CE are both perpendicular to the line of action, they must be parallel, and the angle ECP is equal to ~r' We can then use triangle ECP to express the base circle radius in terms of the standard pitch circle radius, (2.7) Alternative Definition of the Involute 29 The shape of the pinion tooth must be such that the normal to the tooth profile at point A passes through P. This is a direct statement of the Law of Gearing. using the base circle just defined, we can restate the property of the tooth shape a little differently. The shape of the tooth profile must be such that the normal at the contact point touches the base circle. As the pinion rotates, the contact point moves along the pinion tooth, and therefore at each point of the profile the normal to the profile must touch the base circle. A curve with this property is known as an involute of the base circle, and this is the origin of the name \"involute gear\". Alternative Definition of the Involute There is another manner in which the involute can be defined. If the base circle is fixed, and a rigid bar AD rolls without slipping on the base circle, as shown in Figure 2.3, then the path followed by point A is an involute. It is easy to prove that the two definitions are equivalent. If point E is the contact point between the base circle and bar, then E is also the instantaneous center of the bar as it rolls. The 30 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear velocity of point A is therefore perpendicular to EA. This means that the tangent to the involute at A is perpendicular to EA, and therefore the normal is along EA, which is the property by which the involute was originally defined. The Involute Function The alternative definition is useful in helping to derive some of the fundamental geometric equations of the involute. The point in Figure 2.3 where the involute curve meets the base circle is labelled B. This is the point where the end A of the bar would meet the base circle, if the bar rolled to the position where A was the contact point. Due to the fact that the bar rolls without slipping, we can say that the length of arc EB on the base circle must be equal to the length EA on the bar. In symbolic form, this can be written, arc EB EA (2.8) We now need to define a number of new symbols, and to derive the relations between them. Figure 2.4 shows the base Profile angle and roll angle. The Involute Function 31 circle, and an involute curve starting at point B, with a typical point A at radius R. The normal to the involute at A touches the base circle at E. We define an angle ~R' called the profile angle at radius R, as the angle between the radius through A and the involute tangent at A. The radius CE is perpendicular to EA, since EA touches the base circle, and CE is therefore parallel to the involute tangent at A. Hence, the angle ECA is equal to the profile angle, angle ECA (2.9) Referring to triangle ECA, we obtain two immediate results, (2.10) EA (2.11) Next, we define an angle ER, called the roll angle at radius R, as the angle between the radius through B and the involute tangent at A. Since CE is parallel to the involute tangent at A, the angle ECB is equal to the roll angle, angle ECB (2.12) and the length of arc EB is therefore given by the following equation, arc EB (2.13) where ER must of course be expressed in radians. We now combine Equations (2.8, 2.11 and 2.13), in order to obtain a relation between ER and ~R' (2.14 ) The angle between the radii CA and CB is clearly a function of ~R' and the name inv ~R (short for involute function of ~R) has been chosen for this function. We express the angle ACB as the difference between angles ECB and ECA, and since angle ECB is given by Equation (2.14) in radians, 32 Tooth Prof i Ie of an I nvol ute Gear the angles in the following equation are all expressed in radians. inv I/>R angle ACB (2.15) The function inv I/>R is used throughout the geometry of involute gears. Since, as we have shown, it represents an angle measured in radians, it is generally convenient to express other angles also in radians. For this reason, the following convention will be used in this book. Unless it is explicitly stated that an angle is given in degrees, it will be understood that the value is expressed in radians. For example, the polar coordinate 9R of a point on the tooth profile is given by Equation (2.35). The units are not given, so it is understood that the equation gives the value of 9R in radians. When I/>R is known, the value of inv I/>R is given by Equation (2.15). It is also sometimes necessary to find I/>R' when the value of inv I/>R is known, and this can be carried out by means of the following two steps, q (inv If> ) 2/3 R 1.0 + 1.04004q + 0.32451q2 - 0.00321q3 - 0.00894q4 + 0.00319q5 - 0.00048q6 (2.16) (2.17) The maximum error given by the procedure is 0.0001\u00b0, for values of I/>R between 0\u00b0 and 65\u00b0, and this range of I/>R values is sufficient for most practical purposes. The coefficients in Equation (2.17) are a simplified version of a set of ceofficients developed by Polder [9]. For the purpose of describing the geometry of a tooth, we generally use the radius R to specify any point A on the tooth profile. The profile angle at A is then given by Equa t i on (2. 1 0 ) , Rb R (2.18) and the angle between line CA and the fixed line CB is expressed by the involute function, Pressure Angle of a Gear angle ACB inv /fiR 33 (2.19) Another common description of the involute is based on the same idea as the alternative definition given earlier. We consider a cable wrapped round a fixed cylinder of radius Rb , with one end of the cable attached to the cylinder. If the other end of the cable is partly unwound, the path followed by that end will be an involute. If Figure 2.5 were to represent the cable and cylinder, then EA would be the section of cable unwound from the cylinder, and it is obvious that the length of this part of the cable is equal to the arc EB, where the cable was originally wrapped round the cylinder. Pressure Angle of a Gear The pressure angle /fI s of a gear is defined as the gear profile angle /fiR at the standard pitch circle. The profile angle at radius R was given by Equation (2.10), and the pressure angle can be found by setting R equal to Rs in this relation, (2.20) 34 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear When Equation (2.20) is compared with Equation (2.7), it is clear that the pressure angle of the gear is equal to that of the basic rack, \"'r (2.21) There is a more direct proof that the two pressure angles are equal. Figure 2.6 shows the gear meshed with its basic rack, in positions such that the contact point coincides with the pitch point. If As is the point on the gear tooth profile at radius Rs' the pressure angle of the gear is defined as the angle between the radius CAs and the tooth profile tangent at As. Since As is also the contact point, when the gear and the basic rack are in the positions shown, the tangent to the gear tooth profile lies along the rack tooth profile, and the pressure angle \"'s of the gear is therefore equal to the basic rack pressure angle \"'r. It is evident that the name \"pressure angle\" is used for several angles, each defined in a different manner. The pressure angle \"'r of the basic rack is the angle between the Base pi tch 35 tooth profile and the tooth center-line, while the pressure angle ~ of a gear is the profile angle at its standard pitch s circle. Each of these two angles is a constant quantity associated with a particular gear, and in principle it can be measured on the gear. On the other hand, the operating pressure angle ~ of a gear pair only exists when the two gears are meshed. For a rack and pinion, it is defined as the angle between the line of action and the tangent to the pinion pitch circle at P, while for a pair of gears it is the angle between the line of action and the common tangent to the two pitch circles. We have shown, in Equations (2.6 and 2.21), that for a pinion meshed with its basic rack, the three pressure angles are all equal in value. In Chapter 3 we will show that, in general, the operating pressure angle ~ of a gear pair may differ from the other two pressure angles. However, even when the values are equal, it is important to know which angle is referred to when the name \"pressure angle\" is used, and for this reason the symbols ~r' ~s and ~ will be used throughout this book to distinguish the three angles. Base pitch The circular pitch at radius R was defined in Chapter 1 as the distance between corresponding points of adjacent teeth, measured around the circle of radius R. An expression for the circular pitch at radius R was given by Equation (1.17), 211\"R N The base pitch Pb of a gear is defined in a similar manner, as the distance between corresponding points of adjacent teeth, measured around the base circle. In other words, the base pitch is the circular pitch at the base circle, 211\"Rb N (2.22) In Equation (2.10), we gave an expression for the base circle radius in terms of a typical radius R and the corresponding 36 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear profile angle /fiR' We combine the last three equations to derive a relation between the base pitch and the circular pitch at radius R, (2.23) and as a special case of this equation, we set R equal to Rs' and we obtain the corresponding relation between the base pitch and the circular pitch at the standard pitch circle, (2.24) There is a property of involute curves which we will make use of in the chapters that follow. The normal to a tooth profile at any point A is also normal to any other involute of the base circle, and if it cuts the next tooth profile at point A', the length AA' is equal to the base pitch Pb' Thus, the distance between adjacent tooth profiles, measured along a common normal, is equal to Pb' These results can be proved Gear Parameters 37 with the help of Figure 2.7. The normal to the involute at A must touch the base circle at some point E, since this is the defining property of the involute. If line EA cuts the next tooth profile at A', the normal to the second tooth profile at A' must also touch the base circle, and therefore coincides with line EAA'. Hence, a line which is normal to one involute is also normal to other involutes of the same base circle. To prove that the length AA' is equal to the base pitch, we make use of Equation (2.8), which states that EA is equal to arc EB. Referring again to Figure 2.7, we have the following relations, AA' EA' - EA arc EB' - arc EB arc BB' Since the involutes shown in Figure 2.7 are the profiles of adjacent teeth, arc BB' is by definition equal to the base pitch, and the equation can be written, AA' (2.25) We have therefore proved the statement made earlier, that the distance between adjacent tooth profiles, measured along a common normal, is equal to the base pitch. The definition of the base pitch given in Equation (2.22) would not apply in the case of a rack, because both the base circle radius and the number of teeth are infinite. However, earlier in the chapter we gave a definition for the base pitch of a rack, as the distance between adjacent tooth prof i les, measured along a common normal. In view of the result given by Equation (2.25), it is now possible to see that there is no essential difference between the two definitions. Relations Between the Gear Parameters and Those of the Basic Rack We pointed out earlier that the parameters Pr' Pbr and 'r can be used to describe the basic rack, and for gears we introduced three corresponding quantities, the circular 38 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear pitch Ps at the standard pitch circle, the base pitch Pb' and the pressure angle 41 s \u2022 We have already shown in Equations (2.5 and 2.21) that the two pi tches and the two pressure angles are equal, The two base pitches were expressed in terms of the remaining quantities by means of Equations (2.2 and 2.24), When we compare these equations, bearing in mind that the pitches and pressure angles are equal, it is clear that the two base pi tches are also equal, = (2.26) We stated in Chapter 1 that we can define a system of gears, simply by specifying the shape of the teeth in the basic rack. The teeth of each gear in the system must be shaped so that they are conjugate to the basic rack. We have now shown that, for any gear in an involute system, the circular pitch at the standard pitch circle, the base pitch and the pressure angle must each be equal to the corresponding quantity in the basic rack. When the geometry of a gear is described, it is necessary to refer repeatedly to the circular pitch at the standard pitch circle. Since this phrase is so cumbersome, it is common practice to describe Ps simply as the \"circular pitch\". There is no danger of confusion, provided the circular pitch at any other radius is clearly identified, and therefore from now on in the book we will adopt this convention. The same convention will be used for the names of several other gear tooth quantities, whose values depend on the radius, and these will be pointed out as they occur. Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear 39 Module and Diametral pitch When we introduced the standard pitch circle of a gear, we stated that a number of the gear parameters are defined on the standard pitch circle. As part of the specification of a gear, we must therefore give the radius of the standard pitch circle, or alternatively some quantity from which the radius can be calculated. The standard pitch circle radius Rs was given originally by Equation (2.3) in terms of the basic rack pitch Pr' NPr \"\"\"21r (2.27) and since the pitch of the basic rack is equal to the circular pitch of the gear, the radius of the standard pitch circle can be expressed directly in terms of the circular pi tch, (2.28) For a system of gears conjugate to a particular basic rack, it would therefore be necessary to specify only the value of the circular pitch Ps' which is the same for every gear in the system, and we would then use Equation (2.28) to calculate the standard pitch circle radius of each gear. This method of specification was in fact used in the past, and gears in which the circular pi tch is specified as a convenient length are known as \"circular pitch gears\". However, they are seldom made today, as they have one slight disadvantage. If the value of the circular pitch is chosen as a round number, the standard pitch circle radius is always an inconvenient size, due to the presence of the factor w in Equation (2.28). It has been found more practical to design gears in which the standard pitch circle radius is a round number. With this consideration in mind, we introduce a quantity called the module m, defined in terms of the basic rack pitch, m (2.29) We now combine Equations (2.27 and 2.29), in order to express the standard pitch circle radius in terms of the module, 40 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear (2.30) and, since once again the circular pitch of the gear is equal to the basic rack pitch, a relation between the circular pitch and the module can be found immediately from Equation (2.29), (2.31) The module, which we have shown is proportional to the circular pitch, is used not only in the calculation of the standard pitch circle radius, but also as a measure of the tooth size. When two gears are meshed together, they must clearly have teeth of approximately the same size, and in prac t ice they are des i gned with the same module m and the same pressure angle ~s. In other words, the two gears are both conjugate to the same basic rack. We will show in Chapter 3 that these conditions ensure correct meshing of the gears. The module can be measured in either mms or inches. In practice, it is most commonly measured in mms, since the module is generally used in countries which have adopted the metric system. In North America, the quantity used at present to specify the tooth size of a gear is known as the diametral pitch Pd. This is defined as the number of teeth in the gear, divided by the diameter of the standard pitch circle, N 2Rs (2.32) A relation between the diametral pitch and the circular pitch can be found from Equations (2.28 and 2.32), ..JL Ps (2.33) and when we use Equation (2.31) to express the circular pitch in terms of the module, it is clear that the diametral pitch is equal to the rec iprocal of the module, 1 m (2.34) Since the diametral pitch is expressed in teeth per inch, Equation (2.34) requires that the module be given in inches. Tooth Thickness 41 It seems probable that the use of the diametral pitch will eventually be abandoned in favour of the module. The gear geometry in this book is therefore described in terms of the module, and the module is also used in most of the examples at the end of each chapter. However, since the diametral pi tch is still widely used in North America, a number of examples are also included in which the tooth size is specified by means of the diametral pitch. For these problems, the module will first be found, using Equation (2.34), and the remaining calculations will then be carried out in terms of the module. Tooth Thickness The tooth thickness at radius R is defined as the arc length between opposite faces of a tooth, measured around the circumference of the circle of radius R. We will show in this section that when we know the tooth thickness at one radius, we can calculate it at any other. Thus, it is only necessary to specify the tooth thickness at one particular radius, and for this purpose we generally choose the standard pitch circle. The symbol ts is used to designate the tooth thickness at the standard pitch circle, and tR is used for the tooth thickness at radius R. The tooth thickness ts at the standard 42 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear pitch circle is described simply as \"the tooth thickness\", in the same way that the circular pitch at the standard pitch circle is called the circular pitch. The gap between the teeth, measured around the circle of radius R, is called the space width at radius R, and like the tooth thickness, the space width is generally measured on the standard pi tch circle. Since the tooth thickness, the space width and the circular pitch are all defined as arc lengths, as shown in Figure 2.8, it is clear that the sum of the tooth thickness and the space width at any radius R is equal to the circular pi tch at radius R. A gear tooth is shown in Figure 2.9, with points B, As and A on the tooth profile at radii Rb , Rs and R. We will derive an expression for the tooth thickness tR at radius R, assuming the tooth thickness ts is known, and we start by finding the polar coordinate 9R of point A, angle xCA angle xCAs + angle AsCB - angle ACB Tooth Thickness 43 The angle ACB is given by the involute function inv 'R' as we showed in Equation (2.19), and since the profile angle at the standard pitch circle is equal to the pressure angle 's' the angle AsCB is equal to inv,s. Hence, the expression for 8R can be written, = (2.35) Having found the polar coordinate 8R of point A, we can immediately write down an expression for the tooth thickness at radius R, In order to find a relation between the thicknesses at any two radii R1 and R2, we use Equation twice to write down the tooth thicknesses tR and tR ' h 1 \" b h ,1 2 t en e lmlnate ts etween t e two expressIons, tR tR = R2[r + 2(inv 'R - inv'R )] 2 1 1 2 (2.36) tooth (2.36) and we (2.37) where 'R and /fiR are the prof ile angles at the two radi i. 1 2 44 Tooth Profi Ie of an I nvol ute Gear There is another quantity which will be useful in the description of a gear tooth profile, in particular in Chapter 11, where we discuss the tooth strength of a gear. We define an angle YR, as shown in Figure 2.10, as the angle between the profile tangent at point A and the tooth center-line, which coincides with the x axis. Since line CE in Figure 2.10 is parallel to the profile tangen~ at A, the angle between CE and the x axis is equal to YR' and we can therefore express YR as follows, (2.38) We replace 8R by the expression given in Equation (2.35), and the equation for YR then takes the following form, Standard Basic Rack Forms 45 and bs between these circles and the standard pi tch circle are called the addendum and the dedendum, and for this reason the tip and root circles are also called the addendum and dedendum circles. The sum of the addendum and the dedendum is known as the whole depth of the gear teeth. Finally, we use Figure 2.11 to express the addendum and the dedendum in terms of RT, Rs and Rroot ' Standard Basic Rack Forms R - R T s (2.40) (2.41) Although it is possible to choose arbitrary values for the module m and the pressure angle ~r of a basic rack, there are a number of standard values which are most frequently used. As we have shown, the module and pressure angle ~s of a gear are equal to the module and pressure angle ~r of its 46 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear basic rack, so by choosing standard values for the basic rack parameters, we are also choosing the same values for the parameters of the gear. These standard values are recommended by organisations such as the ISO and the AGMA, first because they have been found in practice to give satisfactory results, and secondly for economic reasons. The tools used for cutting gears have dimensions which depend on the module and the pressure angle of the gear to be cut. A gear manufacturer will normally keep in stock the tools necessary for cutting gears with standard values of module and pressure angle, but when di fferent values are required, the cutting tool must be made specially, and the cost of the gear is therefore increased. Preferred values for the module, measured in mms, are as follows, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 8, 10, 12, 2, 2.5, 3, 16, 20, 25, 4, 5, 6, 32, 40, 50, and the preferred values for the diametral pitch, measured in Standard Basic Rack Forms 47 teeth per inch, are given below." ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003468_978-1-4612-4764-7-Figure6.4-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003468_978-1-4612-4764-7-Figure6.4-1.png", "caption": "Figure 6.4. A gear pair with partial recess action.", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "There are several reasons why the initial design just described may need to be improved. For instance, there may be interference, or one of the gears may be undercut. For the moment we will simply describe how the design can be altered, and in the later sections of this chapter we will discuss some of the reasons for making the changes. In the initial design, we chose to make the tooth thicknesses tP1 and tP2 equal to each other. We now increase one of the tooth thicknesses by an amount ~tp' and in order to retain the same backlash in the gear pair, we must reduce the other tooth thickness by the same amount. Hence the tooth thicknesses, which in the initial design were given by Equation (6.25), are now as follows, l(p -B) + ~t 2 P P (6.45) = l(p -B) - ~t 2 P p (6.46) 160 Profile Shift The rest of the design follows exactly the procedure described earlier. In the original description, the equations used to calculate the gear blank diameters were interspersed with other equations, which were necessary to explain the reasons for each step in the procedure. For the sake of clarity, we will now repeat the equations that are specifically required for the calculation of the gear blank diameters. Whenever the equations for the two gears are identical, apart from the interchange of subscripts, the equation for gear 1 only will be given. tsl ~ 2(inv q,p - inv q,s)] (6.47) Rsl [R + pl 41 (t sl - 17Tm) (6.48) e l 2 tan 2 s bsl a -r e l (6.49) bPl bsl + RPl - Rsl (6.50) apl m - 1 '2(bpl - bp2 ) (6.51) ap2 m + 1 '2(bp1 - bp2 ) (6.52) DT1 2RT1 2(Rp1 +ap1 ) (6.53) Equations (6.45 - 6.53) form a design algorithm, which can of course be programmed for a micro-computer. The value of ~tp is chosen by the designer, and it may be either positive or negative. Whatever value is chosen, we obtain a gear pair in which the working depth is equal to 2.0m, and the clearances at the two root circles are equal to each other. For the case when the center distance C is equal to the standard center distance Cs ' the initial design procedure gives a gear pair in which the tooth thicknesses tsl and ts2 are equal, and the addendum as in each gear is equal to 1.0m. If a non-zero value is then chosen for ~tp' the addendum in one gear is increased, while that in the other gear is reduced by the same amount. This type of design is known as the \"long and short addendum system\". The name is not appropriate for gear pairs with non-standard center distances, because the Geometric Design of a Spur Gear Pair 161 addendum values are unequal in both the initial and the final designs. Dedendum Values of Gears Cut by a Pinion Cutter In the design procedure just described, the dedendum bsl of gear 1 was given by Equation (6.49), for the case when the gears are cut by a rack cutter. If the gears are cut by a pinion cutter, the dedendum of each gear is still equal to the cutter addendum minus the cutter offset, but for a pinion cutter the offset is no longer equal to the profile shift of the gear. A method for finding the offset of a pinion cutter, corresponding to a tooth thickness tsg in the gear, was described in Chapter 5. The relevant equations will be repeated here, with no further explanation. The pressure angle ~~ of the gear and the cutter at their cutting pitch circles can be found from Equation (5.18), . c lnv ~p (6.54) Once the value of (inv ~~) is known, we use Equations (2.16 and 2.17) to calculate the corresponding value of ~~. The cutting pressure angle, the cutting center distance, and the cutter offset are then given by Equations (5.19, 5.20 and 6.2), ~c P (6.55) Rbg+Rbc cos ~c (6.56) CC _ CC s (6.57) We use these equations to find the cutter offset ~C~l' required to cut the gear tooth thickness tsl given by Equation (6.47). The dedendum in gear 1 is then given by the following expression, a - ~Cc sc sl (6.58) 162 Profile Shift where a sc is the addendum of the pinion cutter. This equation replaces Equation (6.49) in the design procedure, and the dedendum of gear 2 is of course found in the same manner. Avoidance of Undercutting, Interference and Pointed Teeth If the initial design produces a gear pair in which one of the gears is undercut, the tooth thickness in that gear should be increased until the undercutting disappears, while the tooth thickness in the meshing gear is correspondingly reduced. If there is interference, it generally occurs at the tooth fillets of the pinion, and in this case the pinion tooth thickness should be increased until the interference ceases. Finally, if the teeth of either gear are too close to being pointed, or in other words, the tooth thickness at the tip circle is less than O.25m, then the tooth thickness of that gear should be reduced. The design procedure will automatically reduce the addendum, and the tooth thickness at the tip circle will be increased. In every case, the best value for ~tp can be found most simply by trial and error. When a micro-computer is used, the program can carry out the checks to determine whether there is undercutting or interference, and whether the teeth are too pointed. The designer can increase or decrease ~tp until a satisfactory gear pair is found, or alternatively, until it becomes clear that the requirements cannot all be met. Balanced Strength Design The subject of tooth strength, and the calculation of the tooth stresses, will be discussed in Chapter 11. At this stage it is sufficient to state that the tooth strength of a gear depends not only on the module, the pressure angle and the tooth thickness, but also on the number of teeth in the gear. If two meshing gears have equal tooth thicknesses ts1 and t s2 ' the teeth of the pinion are weaker than those of the gear. When a gear pair is designed, the initial choice of zero Recess Action Gears 163 for Atp often produces a gear pair which satisfies all the geometric requirements. However, if the tooth strengths of the two gears are significantly different, the design can be improved by increasing the tooth thickness of the pinion, and reducing that of the gear. If Atp is chosen so that the tooth strengths are equal, the design is known as a \"balanced strength design\". Recess Action Gears I n Chapter 4, we defined the angles of approach and recess as the angles through which the driving gear turns, during the periods when the contact point is approaching towards, and receding from, the pitch point. It is found in practice that the performance of a gear pair is smoother during the recess part of the meshing cycle than during the approach. We proved in Chapter 3 that the sliding velocity 164 Profile Shift between the meshing teeth changes sign as the contact point passes through the pitch point. The change in the direction of the sliding velocity causes the friction force to change direction, and this is responsible for the smoother operation of the gear pair during the recess phase of the meshing cycle. When one gear is always the driver, and the other is always driven, it is possible to design a gear pair to take advantage of the smoother recess action. The gear pair is designed so that most, or even all, of the path of contact lies on the recess side of the pitch point. This can be done by increasing the tooth thickness of the driving gear, and reducing that of the driven. If the recess side of the contact path is significantly longer than the approach side, the gear pair is said to have partial recess action. If the entire contact path lies on the recess side, the gear pair has recess action only. An example of each type of gear pair is shown in Figures 6.4 and 6.5. Profile Shift 165 Contact Ratio and Root Circle Clearance In the three previous sections, we showed how the design of a gear pair can often be improved by the use of unequal tooth thickness design. There are, however, two aspects of gear pair design which cannot be improved by this type of modi fication. When gear pairs are designed according to the procedure described earlier, it is very unusual for the contact ratio to be less than the recommended minimum of 1.4. This is because the gear pairs always have a working depth of 2.0m, and this generally ensures an adaquate contact ratio. In the rare cases where the contact ratio in the initial design is too low, it is possible to increase its value by reducing the tooth thickness of the pinion and increasing that of the gear. However, this solution to the problem is normally impractical, since it involves weakening the teeth of the pinion, which are already weaker than those of the gear. A better solution is to try a completely different design, in which the module is reduced and the number of teeth in each gear is increased. In some designs, the clearances at the root circles may be inadaquate. It will be found that, for gears cut by a rack cutter or a hob, the value of atp has absolutely no effect on the size of the clearances, so if they are too small in the ini tial design, they will not be improved by any choice of ~tp. A rack cutter with an addendum of 1.25m would give clearances of O.25m in a gear pair meshing with zero backlash at the standard center distance Cs \u2022 When the gear pair is designed with a normal amount of backlash, the teeth of each gear are cut slightly deeper, and the clearances are of course increased. If the same cutter is used to cut a gear pair for a center distance C which is greater than the standard center distance, and the tooth thicknesses are chosen so that the backlash is unchanged, the clearances become smaller for larger values of C. Hence, inadaquate clearances are an indication that the the value of (C-Cs ) is too large. This is the reason why there is a lower limit for the value of Cs ' and in the next section we will show how the expression given in Equation (6.14) was derived. 166 Profile Shift" ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003997_3-540-27969-5-Figure8.8-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003997_3-540-27969-5-Figure8.8-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 8.8. (a) Original MANET; (b) Planarized MANET; (c) Right-hand routing", "texts": [ " These dead ends happen in those situations in which a tuple arrives at a node, but then does not find any neighbor closer to the intended destination. In such cases, the tuple should stop acting greedily, travel a bit backward (thus getting farther from the destination) and look for alternative paths (see Fig. 8.7). To overcome this problem, the solution mainly adopted [18, 75, 81] is to move past the local minima by applying a graph traversing algorithm, to the planar graph [42] obtained by locally pruning links in the network. The idea is the one depicted, in more detail, in Fig. 8.8 and described in the following: 1. Tuples start propagating following plain Euclidean considerations. However, when a tuple finds itself at a minimum of the coordinate system, it switches to a, let us call it, \u201ccircumnavigate\u201d propagation mode. 2. Since most graph traversing algorithms works only in planar graphs, the first thing a tuple has to do is to prune (i.e., avoid using) some of the network links in the host node neighborhood. This can be easily done by enforcing a planarization algorithm as proposed in [18, 75]. This locally transform the MANET in a planar network, and logically divides the network into a set of adjacent \u201cfaces.\u201d 3. Suppose now that the tuple wants to travel from a vertex s to a vertex t of the network in Fig. 8.8(c). First it needs to calculate the line segment st joining s to t. Then it navigates across the face crossed by st. The tuple can navigate across a face, provided with only local information, by always choosing the leftmost link from the direction from which it comes (right-hand rule [18, 75, 81]). 8.3 TOTA Implementation Details 171 4. The above step is repeated either until no other faces, crossing st, can be found or until the tuple can revert to the Euclidean routing propagation (this propagation mode is only intended for escape from a dead end). 5. In the end, once the tuple reaches the last face (F3 in Fig. 8.8), it routes to the node of that face closest to t. Further details on this algorithm are in [18, 75, 81]. It is worth noting that, in this implementation, the route to the destination is computed dynamically as the tuple travels across the network. In fact, the route derives actually from the hop-by-hop execution of the tuples\u2019 propagation algorithm. This implies that if, during propagation, the underlying coordinate system changes, then the tuple takes into account such a new coordinate system on the fly (i" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003785_s11431-008-0219-1-Figure6-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003785_s11431-008-0219-1-Figure6-1.png", "caption": "Figure 6 The Carricato mechanism.", "texts": [ " The whole mechanism can be considered as having twelve kinematic joints and eleven links including the frame, i.e., n=11 and g=12.

Instead we briefly introduce several of the most representatives as a clue for further reading. Figure 2.36 shows the remains of an ancient bronze instrument, the so-called \u201cAntikythera mechanism\u201d found in a sunken wreck off the Antikythera island in Greece (Williams 2003). Research on the mechanism indicated that the instrument was made around 87 BC (according to a more recent view, in 205 BC). The discovery has inspired wide curiosity among scholars on history of science and technology. Many of them devoted great effort to study this mechanism. A paper on the journal Nature concluded that it was a solar system instrument for predicting the position of celestial bodies (Freeth et al", " The Arabian scholars displayed an interest in creating human-like machines for practical purposes but lacked real impetus to pursue their robotic science (Rosheim 1994). The rope drive was the earliest transmission humans ever used. It could be seen in bow drills (Fig. 2.54), spinners and water-driven blowers (Fig. 2.26). In the 1950s, archaeologists in China found an iron ratchet gear of the 3rd century BC to the 1st century AD, a bronze ratchet gear and metal gears of the 3rd century BC, and herringbone gears (Fig. 2.46) of the 1st century (Needham 1987a). The gear trains in the Antikythera mechanism (Fig. 2.36) and in the south pointing chariot (Fig. 2.31) were very complicated.

Although It is not clear who invented the worm drive, humans noticed the unique features of worm drives very early, such as the large reduction ratio, the force amplification, and self-locking.

In this section, we review the Angular Momentum inducing inverted Pendulum Model (AMPM) [8]. The AMPM enhances the 3DLIPM in the following directions; (1) the ZMP is allowed to move over the ground, (2) the ground force vector is calculated to be not only parallel to the vector connecting the ZMP and the COM; its horizontal element can be linearly correlated to the ZMP-COM vector (Fig. 1). As a result, rotational moment will be generated by the ground force. Let us assume the position of the COM is (x,H), the position of the ZMP is (cx + d, 0), and the vector of the ground force is parallel to the vector (a(x \u2212 zmp) + b, g) where a, b, c, d are constant values and g is the gravity constant. As the height of the COM is assumed to have a constant value H , the relationship between the acceleration of the COM and its position can be written by: Fx : Fz = x\u0308 : (z\u0308 + g) = H g (a(x \u2212 (cx + d)) + b) : H" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003384_rspa.2004.1371-Figure6-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003384_rspa.2004.1371-Figure6-1.png", "caption": "Figure 6.

However, the latter problem is far more difficult than one might first imagine owing to the strong constraints imposed by geometry and the contact conditions. Here we will consider the somewhat simpler situation of packing a sheet into an open cylindrical frame which can be achieved via a conically deformed shape much like a coffee filter paper as depicted in figure 6a, a geometry first studied nearly a century ago by Mallock (1908), who pointed out the importance of inextensible conical deformations. More recently (Cerda & Mahadevan 1998; Cerda et al . 1999) we showed that this geometry is amenable to analysis and experiment. Here, we revisit this problem and show that it is possible to reduce the fully nonlinear problem to quadratures allowing us to examine the solutions in some detail. (a) Geometry When a circular sheet of paper of radius Rp is pushed into a cylindrical frame of radius R by applying a centred transverse force directed along the axis of the cylinder, as shown in figure 6a, it responds by buckling out of the plane to form a non-axisymmetric conical surface that is only in partial contact with the frame. The effectiveness of packing is controlled by the axial distance d through which the tip is pushed into the frame, and defines a dimensionless packing parameter \u03b5 = d/R. Geometrically, the surface may be described by a family of generators originating at the centre of the sheet, with the angle \u03b2 between a generator and the vector e3 characterizing the normal to the plane of the supporting frame. When cot \u03b2c = \u03b5 (4.1) the generators are in contact with the frame and the shape of the sheet is a cone of opening angle \u03b2c.\u2020 Of course, this conical shape only describes part of the sheet, \u2020 In the following all the variables evaluated along the contact region will carry the subscript \u2018c\u2019. Proc. R. Soc. A (2005) since all the generators cannot satisfy (4.1) without violating the inextensibility condition. The non-axisymmetric conical shape shown in figure 6a is therefore a natural outcome of respecting the constraint of inextensibility almost everywhere, except in the vicinity of the tip. In addition to forming a simple system in which to study the packing problem of a sheet, this example thus affords the simplest example of stress, strain and energy localization occurring in the vicinity of a point, namely the centre of the sheet. The most general description of a conical shape is given by the parametrization r(s, r) = ru(s), (4.2) where r is the distance from the origin located at the tip, u(s) is a unit vector, and s is the arc length of the curve (see figure 6b) measured from the position of maximum elevation of the fold. The motion of u(s) describes a curve C in space. Since the total length of this curve surrounding the tip is invariant under inextensible deformations, a circular curve with initial length 2\u03c0 (at an initial radius r = 1) will not change its length. Therefore, the surface defined by the locus of the straight line ru(s) will be a developable surface. The metric tensor associated with this class of deformations has components gss = r2, gsr = 0 and grr = 1 and remains constant. To describe the surface, we use a moving orthonormal trihedron (equivalent to the repe\u0300re mobile of Cartan) t1 = t, t2 = u, n = t \u00d7 u. (4.3) Here t is the tangent vector to the curve C, and t and n are in a plane perpendicular to u. To parametrize the vectors t, u, n while emphasizing the correspondence with the packing problem treated in \u00a7 3, we use the vectors e\u03b8 and n\u03b8 = u \u00d7 e\u03b8, which span the plane containing t and n, as shown in figure 6, with \u03c6(s) being the angle between t and e\u03b8. Then t = cos \u03c6e\u03b8 + sin\u03c6n\u03b8, n = sin\u03c6e\u03b8 \u2212 cos \u03c6n\u03b8. } (4.4) Proc. R. Soc. A (2005) In terms of spherical coordinates we may write u as u(s) = sin\u03b2 cos \u03b8e1 + sin\u03b2 sin \u03b8e2 + cos \u03b2e3 = sin\u03b2e\u03c1 + cos \u03b2e3, (4.5) where e\u03c1 = cos \u03b8e1 + sin \u03b8e2 is the radius vector in the horizontal plane containing the cylindrical frame and \u03b2 = \u03b2(s) and \u03b8 = \u03b8(s).

The enhancement in 375 the peak current is owed to the particle-particle interaction between V2Se9 and rGO and the 376 active surface area by an enrichment in the mechanism of the redox reaction of Fe(CN)6 3\u2212/4\u2212 . 377 Fig.5.

As the pinion rotates, the contact point moves along the pinion tooth, and therefore at each point of the profile the normal to the profile must touch the base circle. A curve with this property is known as an involute of the base circle, and this is the origin of the name \"involute gear\". Alternative Definition of the Involute There is another manner in which the involute can be defined. If the base circle is fixed, and a rigid bar AD rolls without slipping on the base circle, as shown in Figure 2.3, then the path followed by point A is an involute. It is easy to prove that the two definitions are equivalent. If point E is the contact point between the base circle and bar, then E is also the instantaneous center of the bar as it rolls. The 30 Tooth Profile of an Involute Gear velocity of point A is therefore perpendicular to EA. This means that the tangent to the involute at A is perpendicular to EA, and therefore the normal is along EA, which is the property by which the involute was originally defined. The Involute Function The alternative definition is useful in helping to derive some of the fundamental geometric equations of the involute. The point in Figure 2.3 where the involute curve meets the base circle is labelled B. This is the point where the end A of the bar would meet the base circle, if the bar rolled to the position where A was the contact point. Due to the fact that the bar rolls without slipping, we can say that the length of arc EB on the base circle must be equal to the length EA on the bar.

To deal with the issues of multiple rotor parts in HRAPM machines, the AIPM rotor topology using only one rotor with conventional symmetrical PM configuration and asymmetric rotor core geometry, i.e. employing asymmetric flux barriers to utilize MFS effect, is proposed firstly in [21]. The AIPM machine topology has symmetrical V-shape PMs and asymmetric flux barriers outside the V-shape PM cavity that is located at the right-side PM near the rotor surface in each pole as shown in Fig. 8 (a), which utilizes MFS effect by shifting the position of reluctance axes. An AIPM machine rotor topology is proposed in [36] as shown in Fig. 8 (b), but the flux barrier is located inside the V-shape PMs. Both novel AIPM machines can achieve obvious torque enhancement. Besides, it is found that the flux barrier design in Fig. 8 (b) influences both PM and reluctance torque components but flux barriers in Fig. 8 (a) show negligible effects on PM field and PM torque.

BA-05 5 machine shows significant torque enhancement and torque ripple reduction simultaneously compared with the Toyota Prius 2004. However, more PMs are used and the thin arc PM causes concerns for potential demagnetization. Different from flux barriers near the rotor surface in [21] and [36]-[37], an AIPM machine rotor topology with V-shape PMs is proposed in [38] and analyzed in [39], which employs a flux barrier inside the PM cavity in each pole while the outer and inner ends are located near the rotor surface and near a PM, respectively, as shown in Fig. 8 (d). The comparison indicates that small torque enhancement and torque ripple reduction can be achieved by the proposed machine due to diminishing negative torque components resulted from cross magnetization effect. However, as fractional slot concentrated windings are employed in the studied machine [39], the MFS is insignificant because of small reluctance torque. Asymmetric spoke-type flux barriers whose outer and inner ends are located near the outer and inner surfaces of the rotor are employed in a V-shape AIPM machine [40], as shown in Fig. 8 (e). In this novel design, the increase of torque density can be achieved compared with the conventional V-shape IPM with the same total volume of PMs, although the improvement is not significant. However, this topology raises mechanical issue due to flux barrier structure. Asymmetric rotor geometry can also be used in spoke-type AIPM machine rotor topologies. Extra asymmetric flux barriers near rotor surface are employed in [41] as shown Fig. 9 (a), which can utilize both flux-focusing and MFS effects to enhance torque density while notably reduce cogging torque simultaneously", " Similar demagnetization withstand capability to the V-shape IPM benchmark is also proved for the proposed AIPM machine, with slightly complicated rib structures. In [56], an AIPM rotor topology with asymmetric V-shape PMs and extra flux barriers outside the PMs is proposed for IPM synchronous machines as shown in Fig. 15. The outer and inner ends of flux barrier are located near the rotor surface between adjacent V-shape PMs and near the bottom of asymmetric PM cavity, respectively. The proposed AIPM machine with outer flux barrier [56], Fig.15, and the AIPM machine with inner flux barrier [38]-[39], Fig. 8(d), are designed with the same stator, rotor diameter and PM usage to the conventional V-shape IPM machine for Toyota Prius 2010 and final optimal machines are compared. It confirms the proposed AIPM machine with outer flux barriers shows inherently higher torque density than the AIPM machine with inner flux barrier structure, as will be further described in Section IV.B. Compared with the IPM machine benchmark, significant torque enhancement is achieved by employing the proposed AIPM topology. Besides, the improved CPSR, efficiency and thermal performances in the AIPM machine with outer flux barriers are also revealed", " Downloaded on May 31,2021 at 23:28:03 UTC from IEEE Xplore.

In [23] and [31], HRAPM machines with SPM and multi-layer reluctance rotor parts are used and the maximum PM and reluctance torque components can be achieved at approximately the same current advancing angle. Shaped PMs shown in Fig. 6 (b) are employed in [23] to reduce the torque ripple.

To mitigate the issue of unbalanced axial electromagnetic force in two rotor parts HRAPM machine [33], rotor structure with three parts that uses the same rotor parts at both axial ends is proposed [33]-[35] as shown in Fig. 7, while the displacement angle between both rotor end parts and the central part is optimized to better utilize the MFS effect.

In Figure 4.14 we showed the pitch plane section through the imaginary racks, and we then proved that the circular backlash of the gear pair is equal to the distance that either imaginary rack can move, when the other is held fixed. We follow the same procedure for the case of a helical gear pair. Figure 14.6 shows a transve~se section through the gear pair, with the imaginary racks drawn in, and Figure 14.7 shows the pitch plane section through the imaginary racks. A typical pair of teeth are in contact along line ArA~, and the gaps between the teeth are represented by the narrow un shaded bands.

The transverse tooth thicknesses of the imaginary racks are chosen equal to those of the gears, 390 Helical Gears in Mesh and it then follows that the corresponding normal tooth thicknesses are also equal. These values are therefore shown on Figure 14.7, and it is clear that the circular backlash of the gear pair, defined by Equation (14.69), is equal to the width of the gap between the teeth of the imaginary racks, measured in the transverse direction. We now introduce a third method for defining the backlash in a helical gear pair.

Relations Between the Different Types of Backlash The relation between the normal backlash Bn and the circular backlash B can be seen immediately from Figure 14.7, B cos I/tp (14.72) In order to find a relation between the backlash B' along the common normal and the circular backlash, we first consider a typical transverse section through the gear pair, as shown in Figure 14.8.

Backlash The three different types of backlash in a crossed helical gear pair are defined in essentially the same manner as they were in the case of parallel-axis helical gears. However, there are some differences in the expressions used to calculate the backlash values, and in the relations between the different types of backlash. When we discussed the normal backlash of a parallel-axis gear pair, we showed in Figure 14.7 a section through the pitch plane of two imaginary racks, whose tooth thicknesses are chosen so that each imaginary rack is in contact with both faces of the teeth in the corresponding gear. As a consequence, the normal and transverse tooth thicknesses of each imaginary rack at its pitch plane are equal to the normal and transverse tooth thicknesses of the corresponding gear at its pitch cylinder. The normal backlash Bn of the gear pair was then defined as the gap width, measured in the normal direction, between the tooth profiles of the two imaginary racks in the pitch plane section" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0000011_jsen.2019.2918018-Figure10-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0000011_jsen.2019.2918018-Figure10-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 10.

It can be easily found that Brad and Btan also changed corresponding to the occurrence of short-circuit fault. Thus, it is feasible to detect the inter-turn short-circuit fault in stator windings by sensing the stray magnetic field. To experimentally verify the effectiveness of the proposed short-circuit fault detection approach, a 3.3-kW 8-pole/36-slot SPMSM was installed on the testing platform as the test motor (see Fig. 10(a)). Its main specifications and parameters are given in Table I. The SPMSM was fed through space vector control using an adjustable-speed motor drive. The motor was also coupled with a high-speed flywheel and a generator to adjust the load level in experiments. During the experiments, the phase currents (i.e., ia, ib and ic) of test motor as well as the fault resistor current (iRf) were monitored by four AC current probes (Tektronix TCPA300). The three-phase parallel-connected winding configuration of the test motor is illustrated in Fig. 6 and Fig. 7. In order to simulate the inter-turn short-circuit faults in test motor, the winding a1 and a7 were alternatively shorted by the fault resistor Rf in experiments by controlling the switches S1 and S2, same as in simulation. Three electrical taps were extracted outside the motor cover to connect the switches and as fault resistors for producing the short-circuit faults (see Fig. 10(a) and Fig. 10(b)). The aluminum housed resistors (from Arcol HS series [34]) with maximum tolerance of \u00b110% were chosen as the fault resistors in the experiments. The resistance values of the fault resistors were also measured by a Keithley 2450 SourceMeter before the experiments. By directly using or series-connecting the fixed-value resistors, the resistances of the fault resistors in the experiments were in the range from 0.022 to 1.003 \u03a9. The motor cover was drilled in order to mount 24 TMR sensor units close to the stator yoke surface for measuring the stray magnetic field, as shown in Fig. 10(b).

The distance between the TMR sensors and stator yoke surface is approximately 2 mm. It should be noted that the installation of TMR sensors can be completed during the fabrication stage of a new PMSM", " The detailed parameters of two TMR sensors and the signal amplification gain are listed in Table II. Each TMR sensor utilizes a push-pull Wheatstone bridge composed of four unique TMR elements. The typical magnetic-field-sensitivities of TMR2001 sensor and TMR2503 sensor are 80 mV/V/mT and 10 mV/V/mT, respectively. Moreover, the sensitive direction of TMR2001 sensor is horizontal to the sensor package, whereas that of TMR2503 sensor is perpendicular to the surface of sensor package. As the enlarged figure in Fig. 10(b) shows, the PCB with two sensors is arranged in parallel to the surface of motor stator yoke. Hence, the TMR2001 sensor and TMR2503 sensor were used to measure the tangential (Btan) and radial (Brad) components of the stray magnetic field, respectively.

Number of Teeth in the Span We have not yet considered the number N' of teeth over which the span measurement should be made. Ideally, the caliper jaws should touch the tooth faces near the middle of their profiles. This means, as we pointed out earlier, that the contact should take place at a radius of approximately (Rs+e). The value of N' must therefore be chosen with this consideration in mind. The points of contact between the gear and the caliper are shown in Figure 8.5. To simplify the analysis, we will now assume that the caliper is positioned symmetrically, so that the length AE is equal to half the span measurement S.

The pole figures in Fig. 9(c) demonstrate that texture has developed. The (100) pole shows a peak intensity (the red area) close to the center from the scan direction (+X), which indicates a preferred orientation aligned along the build direction. The texture strength of the solidification grain structure is characterized by the texture index, which is 6.11 \u00d7 10\u22123. To probe the spatial distribution of the grains, several 2D views of the final simulation results are shown in Fig. 10, including a top view, a YZ cross-section at x = 296.25 \u03bcm, and two XZ cross-sections: one at y = 145.0 \u03bcm and the other at y = 205.0 \u03bcm. In Fig. 10(a), the top view of the deposition shows that the morphology of the solidification microstructure outlined by the white dashed lines is different from that of unmelted powders on the left side. This shows that the columnar grains from both sides of the melt track proceed in a curved shape towards the center of the melt pool with a mean angle of 78\u00b0 to the scan direction, which is attributed to the growth direction of the columnar grain following the trailing edge of themelt pool. At the center of the track, grains elongated in the direction perpendicular to this crosssection appear equiaxed. These central grains typically grow epitaxially, and tilt in the direction of the thermal gradient, in this case along the scan direction. This is demonstrated in Fig. 10(b), which shows a transverse cross-section of these same grains, and Fig. 10(c), which shows a longitudinal cross-section. The spatial inhomogeneity of the grain structure related to the melt pool geometry is demonstrated well by 2D cross-sections. From the YZ cross-section view of the final grain structure plotted in Fig. 10(b), one can find that the columnar grains epitaxially grow from the partially melted pre-existing grains and adopt a growth direction radiating from the boundaries towards the top center of the melt pool in what we will term a radial growth pattern, because of the thermal gradient distribution shown in Fig. 7(b). The grains tend to grow parallel to the local thermal gradient direction, and therefore normal to the fusion boundary indicated by the white dashed curved line. In addition, the closeup in Fig. 7(b) shows that grains growing epitaxial from partially melted powder are captured, reproducing a phenomenon also noted experimentally [4]. Fig. 10(c1) is a central longitudinal cross-section to the track, and Fig. 10(c2) is an off-center longitudinal cross-section. Both of these indicate that grains grow epitaxially from the pre-existing grains in the substrate, with their growth directions slightly tilting off vertical towards the scanning direction, aligning with the temperature gradient directions shown in Fig. 7(a). Moreover, the grains with colors close to red (representing the grain orientation [001], parallel to the build direction) overgrow other neighboring grains. This is because grains with their fastest growth direction alignedwith the temperature gradient best survive the growth competition. One difference between the two longitudinal cross-section results is that the off-center cross-section in Fig. 10(c2) exhibits finer grain structures at the top of the melted regions. These structures are columnar grains sectioned along their narrow directions and have grown from out-of-plant locations on the curved fusion zone boundary and extend across the YZ slice, as can be seen in Fig. 10(b). The high fidelity 3D numerical simulations allow these phenomena to be directly observed, providing an important tool for interpreting 2D results andmore generally understanding the development of texture during the process. The results shown in Figs. 7 and 10 are in agreement with the previously observed relationship between temperature gradient and growth direction of grains, e.g. in Fig. 3 of [4] showing the as-built prior-\u03b2 grain structure during solidification, and Fig. 12 in [32].

Their model is similar to our previous model [5] for the nucleation of twinning and intrinsic SFs. Therefore, our model will be modified here to explain extrinsic SFs and twinning nucleation considering extrinsic SFs as the precursor features for twinning will be introduced. The proposed mechanism for extrinsic stacking fault formation and twinning nucleation is illustrated in Figure 5 as follows: (a). Two partial dislocations (separated by intrinsic SFs) in Figure 5.a, one in the primary and the other one is in the conjugate {111} slip planes, form a Lomer-Cotrell lock with a 1/3 a[100] type stair rod [13]. (b). Upon application of high levels of external stress, the trailing partial approaches the leading partial since the Schmid factor for trailing partial is higher than the one for the leading partial. The core of the trailing Bd partial dissociates into a stair rod, ad, and the Shockley partial, Ba, that slips on the cross slip plane (a) as shown in Figure 5.b [7]. The partial Ba dissociates further into another stair rod, da, and a partial bd on the primary d plane. The driving force for this dissociation and gliding onto the next parallel (d) plane comes from the external stress and the pile-up stress of dislocations. (c). Because of the attraction between stair rod, ad, and the leading partial, dC, the partial dC first recombines with the stair rod ad to form aC. Then aC recombines with the stair rod da to form dC on the next d plane. Since the current configuration of partials in the next d plane (Bd is the leading and dC is the trailing partials) corresponds to the high-energy fault, it can be transformed to the lower energy extrinsic fault arrangement as shown in Figure 5.c. (d). An extrinsic SFs can be pinned at two points as suggested by Pirouz [3]. Clusters of interstitial atoms, forest dislocations or kink formation may provide the pinning points. The leading partial has a higher resolved shear stress than the trailing one in the orientations and stress states in Table I. Thus, the mobilities are different which leads to the formation of a faulted loop as envisaged in Figure 5.d. Since the leading partial, Bd, is behind the trailing one at this point, it can double cross slip to the next d plane with the same mechanism as in Figure 5.b. Succesive repetition of this cross-slip process constitutes thin layer of twins as shown in Figures 2,3 and 4. The single crystals of the present material have exhibited extrinsic faults in almost every case in which intrinsic SFs or normally twinning is not favorable. For the aforementioned dislocation model to be valid, the following conditions should be satisfied: i) The leading partial of the extrinsic fault must be faster than the trailing one. ii) The stress level on the leading partial must be sufficient to overcome the fault tension", "1 G in a high SFE pure metal, i.e. Ni. However, in the present cases, the low SFE and very high stress levels decrease the extrinsic SFE similar to the intrinsic one [5]. Moreover, the Mn-C couples introduce a local internal stress field that helps the formation of extrinsic SFs. Furthermore, the carbon field around partial dislocations doubles the constriction energy to start the cross slip process [16]. Thus, deformation will proceed by dissociation of dislocations on the primary plane d in the way shown in Figure 5.b instead of a regular cross slip process. The shear stress on the leading partial of the extrinsic stacking fault should overcome the fault tension to nucleate twinning. The fault tension is approximately gE/bp>150 MPa assuming gE>gi 5 23 mJ/m2 and bp 5 1.5 \u00c5 in the present material. From this, the necessary stress should be 320 MPa for the [001] orientation under tension. For this orientation a yield level of approximately 300 MPa was observed experimentally. This demonstrates that once kinematic barriers are overcome due to the aforementioned reasons, twinning is likely in the cases presented in Table I" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0000374_j.engfailanal.2020.104477-Figure1-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0000374_j.engfailanal.2020.104477-Figure1-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 1.

The build direction coincides with the longitudinal axis and the process details are indicated in Table 1. The two geometries produced, for fatigue and creep testing, are reported in Fig. 1(A and B) respectively. During SLM fabrication a defect was introduced in the form of a slight misalignment of the build axis in correspondence of the minimum cross section trait, as indicated in Fig. 1C. The fatigue specimens were produced to a minimum diameter of 6 mm. Four of them were being tested at room temperature with the asbuilt surface, while the rest of them had the surface lathe-machined down to a diameter of 5 mm as reported in Fig. 1A. The creep specimens where tested with the as-built surface. All the specimens were tested with the as-built microstructure consisting of acicular \u03b1\u2019 martensitic phase in elongated \u03b2 grains as shown in Fig. 2. A certain degree of porosity can be detected in the longitudinal cut as observed from Fig. 2.

A similar reduction of strain-controlled fatigue life is originated by an increase of ambient temperature to 600 \u00b0C. The fatigue failure at high temperature is characterized by a diffused secondary cracking originated by weakening of the grain boundary regions, as seen in Fig. 4b. The creep testing was performed on a series of 8 specimens of the geometry specified in Fig. 1b. The samples where tested applying a constant nominal stress with a drop weight machine with induction heating at temperatures of 450, 550 and 650 \u00b0C, respectively. The results are reported in Fig. 5 in terms of nominal stress vs time to failure, showing a consistent behavior for the whole range of time to failure, from 120 s to 655 h.

In this novel design, the increase of torque density can be achieved compared with the conventional V-shape IPM with the same total volume of PMs, although the improvement is not significant. However, this topology raises mechanical issue due to flux barrier structure. Asymmetric rotor geometry can also be used in spoke-type AIPM machine rotor topologies. Extra asymmetric flux barriers near rotor surface are employed in [41] as shown Fig. 9 (a), which can utilize both flux-focusing and MFS effects to enhance torque density while notably reduce cogging torque simultaneously. Asymmetric rotor profile is applied in a spoke-type AIPM machine [42] (Fig. 9 (b)) to reduce magnetic field harmonics introduced by PM magnetic flux density, thereby significantly reducing both torque ripple and vibration albeit with small decrease of average torque. In summary, the AIPM machine rotor topologies discussed in Figs. 8 and 9 generally employ additional asymmetric flux barriers in conventional IPM machines to utilize MFS effect by shifting the axis of rotor saliency.

Here, Takenaka [9] considered the ZMP during manipulation as the COP of the foot\u2013ground contact. In this section, we obtain the region of GZMP by considering both the infinitesimal displacement of the constrained convex polyhedron and the moment about the edges of it. Also, the region is defined on the floor by introducing the method for projecting the GZMP. We will explain our proposed method using the 3-D convex polyhedron shown in Fig. 4(a). Since the robot will rotate about an edge of the convex hull when falling down, we focus on the rotational motion of the convex polyhedron about the edge, including the vertices X and Y . Let prot be the position vector of an arbitrary point on the line including the vertices X and Y . Also, let qrot = [ qTrot T rot] T be the infinitesimal translational/rotational displacement vector of the convex polyhedron. Since the vertex Z may break contact with the environment but it cannot go inside it, the following inequality can be satisfied: d (XY ) j qrot 0; (j = 1; ", " In this subsection, we will obtain the relationship between the GZMP and the moment about an edge of the convex hull. By using the duality between the force and the infinitesimal displacement, the moment about the edge including the vertices X and Y satisfies the following equation: m (XY ) = d (XY )T k; k 0: (12) If Proposition 1 is satisfied, (12) shows that the sign of m(XY ) is same as that of . Then, to obtain the relationship between the GZMP and the moment about an edge of the convex polyhedron, we introduce a virtual plane and define the GZMP on the plane as shown in Fig. 4(b). By using the force fE and moment E at the GZMP on the virtual plane, we can also formulate the moment about the edge including the vertices X and Y as m (XY ) = pTX pTY kpX pY k (pE prot) fE + eZe T Z E (13) where eZ denotes the unit normal vector of the virtual plane. When (pX pY ) TeZ 6= 0 is satisfied in (13), E affects the moment about the edge. In this case, the direction of the moment about the edge cannot be uniquely determined by simply considering the position of the GZMP on the virtual plane", " When the virtual plane is expressed as z(XY ) E = z (XY ) Ed , the position of the GZMP modified in Definition 2 can be expressed as x (XY ) E y (XY ) E = fME [( pG g) D]g 1 ME pG ez (XY ) Ed ( pG g) +E _LG (14) where E = [e(XY ) x e (XY ) y ]T D = 1 0 0 0 1 0 T e = [0 0 1]T : Now, the virtual plane is divided into two regions, using the line including the edge where each region is identified by the direction of moment about the edge. However, since the direction of moment about an edge satisfying Proposition 1 is unique, the GZMP is included in one of the two regions on the virtual plane. Then, let us consider the virtual plane including two edges sharing a common vertex, as shown in Fig. 4(c). By using two lines, we divide the virtual plane into four regions. The four regions on the virtual plane can be identified by the direction of moment about two edges, as shown in Fig. 4(d). If both of the edges satisfy Proposition 1, the GZMP is included in one of the four regions. Fig. 4(c) shows the region of the GZMP corresponding to m(XY ) > 0 and m(XZ) < 0. Also, Fig. 4(d) shows the four regions on the plane defined by the vertices X; Y , and Z . Furthermore, let us consider the motion of the convex hull after the convex hull begins rotating about the edge including the verticesX and Y . Let us observe the motion of the robot from the reference coordinate system fixed to its sole. The direction of the gravity force changes due to the rotation about the edge. This change of gravity force vector affects the moment about the edge. To explain the basic mechanism as simply as possible, let us suppose that an inverted pendulum moves from the unstable equilibrium state", " Using Proposition 3, we project the line including the edges of the convex hull satisfying Proposition 1 onto the real floor, and the lines projected on the floor form the edge of the region of the GZMP. Here, since (21) depends on the position of the COG of the robot, the region of the GZMP also depends on the position of the COG. Now, the method for obtaining the region of the GZMP for maintaining the balance of a humanoid robot is summarized by the following theorem. Theorem 1 (Region of GZMP): Project all the edges of the convex hull satisfying Proposition 1 onto the floor using Proposition 3, as shown in Fig. 4(e). The region of the GZMP is defined by the direction of moment about an edge using (12). If Proposition 2 is satisfied, the robot might fall down when the GZMP lies on the edge of the region. Motion of the Object: Let us consider the case where a humanoid robot pushes an object placed on the floor and where the weight of the object is light. In such a case, the robot may fall down as the object moves away from the robot. To prevent the robot from falling down, the COP of the foot\u2013ground contact should be included in the 2-D convex hull of the foot-supporting area" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003223_tro.2006.882956-Figure2-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003223_tro.2006.882956-Figure2-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 2. OLT and the associated moments.", "texts": [ " But this modification results in a complex dynamical model of the vehicle. This issue is solved by synthesizing an appropriate controller which takes into account these model nonlinearities. For more details on system design and technical analysis, refer to [4], [5], and [9]. Differential Propeller Speeds: Since it is possible to independently modify the speed of each propeller, then the rolling moment can be given by = l(P1 P2) (1) where l is the distance from the motors to the aerodynamic center O (see Fig. 2). P1 and P2 are the lifts generated by the two propellers. Longitudinal Tilting (LT): The yaw moment is obtained by differential LT of the rotors = l(P1 sin 1 P2 sin 2) (2) where 1 and 2 are the LT angles. Since the center of gravity G is located below the tilt axes, the sum of longitudinal components of P1 and P2 generates a pitching moment with respect to G. It can be expressed as = h(P1 sin 1 + P2 sin 2) (3) where h is the distance from G to the tilt axes. Opposed Lateral Tilting (OLT): Referring to Fig. 2, forcing propellers to precess laterally in opposite directions will create gyroscopic moments (M1 ;M2 ) [9], which are directed as shown in Fig. 2. Their total magnitude, calculated in Section III, is given by M = M1 +M2 = Ir _ (!1 + !2) cos (4) with Ir is the fan inertia moment about its spin axis. Also, a nonzero tilt angle will generate a component of the fan torques (Q1; Q2) along the lateral axisE2, creating a pitching moment on the aircraft in the same direction as M . Then, = Ir _ (!1 + !2) cos + (Q1 + Q2) sin . The key idea consists of using both LT and OLT for pitch/forward motion control. More precisely, the collective LT generates a pitching moment ( ) by directing the combined thrust vector, and the OLT creates complementary pitching moments ( ) and minimizes or eliminates the resulting adverse reaction Ma r . The complete dynamics of a helicopter is quite complex, and somewhat unmanageable for the purpose of control [10]. Therefore, we consider a helicopter model as a rigid body incorporating a force/torquesgeneration process [6]. A. Rigid-Body Dynamics The equations of motion for a rigid body subject to body force F0 2 3 and torque 2 3 applied at the center of mass and specified with respect to the body coordinate frame A = (E1; E2; E3) (see Fig. 2) are given by the Newton\u2013Euler equations inA, which can be written as m _ A + m A = F0 J _ + J = (5) where A 2 3 is the body velocity vector, 2 3 is the body angular velocity vector, m 2 specifies the mass, and J 2 3 3 is an inertia matrix.F0 combines the force of gravity and the lift vectorF generated by the propellers. The first equation in (5) can be also expressed in the inertial frame I = (Ex; Ey; Ez). By defining = (x; y; z) and I as the position and the velocity of the helicopter relative to I , we can write _ = I ; m _ I = RF mgEz J _ + J = (6) where R 2 SO(3) is the rotation matrix of the body axes relative to I , satisfying R 1 = RT and det(R) = 1. It can be obtained by using the Euler angles = ( ; ; ) which are yaw, pitch, and roll (cf. [5] and [11] for its expression). B. Force/Torques-Generation Process In the following, we express the force/torques pair (F; ) exerted on the helicopter. To develop our analysis, we use two additional coordinate frames, A1 = (A1x; A1y; A1z) and A2 = (A2x; A2y; A2z), which are associated with the rotor n 1 and rotor n 2, respectively (see Fig. 2). Therefore, the orientation of the rotors n 1 and n 2 with respect toA can be defined by the rotational matrices T1 and T2 whose expressions are given, respectively, by c s s s c 0 c s s c s c c ; c s s s c 0 c s s c s c c : (7) Force Vector: The forceF generated by the rotorcraft is the resultant force of the thrusts generated by the two propellers P A 1 = (0; 0; P1) T ; P A 2 = (0; 0; P2) T : (8) Pi is the lift that the propeller i produces by pushing air in a direction perpendicular to its plane of rotation [10]", "2c )s : (11) Fan Torques: As the blades rotate, they are subject to drag forces which produce torques around the aerodynamic center O. These moments act in opposite directions relative to ! Q A 1 = (0; 0; Q1) T ; Q A 2 = (0; 0; Q2) T : (12) The positive quantities Qi can be written as a function of propeller speeds Qi = Ct! 2 i ; Ct > 0. Similarly, these torques can be written in A as Q = 2 i=1 TiQ A i = (Q1s Q2s )c (Q1 +Q2)s (Q1c Q2c )c : (13) Thrust-Vectoring Moment: Denote O1 (O2) as the application point of the thrust P1 (P2). From Fig. 2, we can define O1G = (0; l; h)T and O2G = (0; l; h)T as positional vectors expressed in A. Then, the moment exerted by F on the airframe is MF = (T1P1) O1G+ (T2P2) O2G: (14) After some development, we obtain MF = l(P1c P2c )c + h(P1 P2)s h(P1s + P2s )c l(P1s P2s )c : (15) Adverse Reactionary Moment: As described in Section II, this moment appears when forcing the rotors to tilt longitudinally. It depends especially on the propeller inertia It and on tilt accelerations. This moment acts as a pitching moment, and can be expressed in A as follows [9]: Ma r = It( 1 + 2) E2: (16) The complete expression of the torque vector acting with respect to the center of mass of the helicopter and expressed in A is =M +M +Q+MF +Ma r: (17) Finally, the explicit expression of could be obtained by replacing the right-hand terms in (17) by the formulae (10)\u2013(16)" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003333_s0021-9797(03)00148-6-Figure4-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003333_s0021-9797(03)00148-6-Figure4-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 4.

This objective can be achieved by varying the concentration of the ion that undergoes ion pairing in a series of solutions where the ionic strength is kept constant [29]; e.g., for the Os\u2013PVI system the tosylate concentration has been systematically varied while keeping the ionic strength fixed with HCl that does not ion pair with the metal complex [30]. As illustrated in Fig. 4, the experimental response of this [Os(bpy)2PVP10Cl]+ polymer film is well defined and is largely consistent with that expected for an ideal system [31, 32]. Although the bpy ligands can be electrochemically reduced in a nonaqueous solvent such as acetonitrile, the most analytically useful redox process is that associated with the metal-based Os2+/3+ couple. In sensing applications, the Os2+ or Os3+ acts as a mediator between a redox-active substrate in solution and the electrode to drive a mediated reduction or oxidation reaction", " For example, in the case of oxidases, the formal potential of the flavin redox center is low enough so that a relatively weak oxidant with a potential in the range from +30 to \u2212100 mV versus Ag/AgCl would be sufficient to efficiently mediate electron transfer to the enzyme. The advantage of a low driving potential is that interference from redox-active species such as ascorbate is substantially reduced. Metallopolymers in which a poly-4vinylpyridine or poly-N -vinylimidazole backbone contains covalently bound osmium polypyridyl complexes such as [Os(bpy)2Cl]+ or [Os(4,4\u2032-dimethoxy-2,2\u2032bipyridine)2Cl]+ have proven to be particularly useful in this regard. As shown in Fig. 4, the redox potential for the bipyridyl complex is approximately +250 mV, but it shifts to +35 mV on going to the dimethoxy derivative. These metallopolymers exist as hydrogels, thus providing an ideal microenvironment within which the enzyme can react. As discussed in Section 2.4, the rate of charge transport through these materials is often limited by either charge compensating counterion transport or the movement of the redox centers through segmental motions of the polymer backbone. These processes tend to be rather slow and freely diffusing oxygen can compete in turning over the immobilized enzyme" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0000492_978-981-15-0833-2-Figure12.6-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0000492_978-981-15-0833-2-Figure12.6-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 12.6 Structural ceramic parts. a Various parts, b ceramic bearing, c ceramic cylinder body", "texts": [ " They have found numerous applications in many industries, one of which is in internal combustion engines installed on civil and military vehicles.

The electrons having different energies are dispersed. The second 900 prism deflects the electron back onto the optical axis. A slit is placed before the intermediate lens and selects the electrons with specific energy losses. This is the Q filter in Fig. 8.34a. This energy filtering can only be performed on a specially built TEM, but it has an advantage of using all of the transmitted electrons and it is most suitable for collecting the large angle scattered electrons. A detailed introduction of this energy-filtering system and its applications has been given by Reimer et al. (1990a and b). The other energy-filtering method uses a parallel-detection electron energy loss spectrometer attached to the bottom of a TEM (Shuman et al., 1986; Krivanek et al., 1991) (Fig. 8.34b). The system is composed of four components: TEM, electron energy loss spectrometer (EELS), energy-filtering system, and charge-coupled device (CCD) camera for digital data recording. The operation of the TEM is almost independent of the energy-filtering system, because the energy filtering occurs after the electron has passed through all of the lenses belonging to the TEM.

However, these internal nodes are allowed to slide relative to each other in the contact surface model (figure 3(b)). Mechanical properties of human lung tissue have been experimentally measured by a limited number of investigators (Zeng et al 1987, Gao et al 2006). A hyperelastic material model is used in this study using the experimental test data presented by Zeng et al with a Poisson\u2019s ratio (\u03bd) of 0.43. The specimens were obtained in ex vivo from persons whose death did not affect the lungs. The specimens were tested within 48 h after death. Although lung tissues were tested in the biaxial mode, the uniaxial mode was included as a special case (Zeng et al 1987)", " Since material properties of the lung tissues are affected by different factors including the initial distortion of tissue (Denny and Schroter 2006), age (Lai-Fook and Hyatt 2000) and its location in the lung (lobes) (Zeng et al 1987), different values of modulus of elasticity and Poisson\u2019s ratio have been used in the literature (De Wilde et al 1981, Zhang et al 2004, Villard et al 2005). An elastic modulus of 7.8 kPa and a Poisson\u2019s ratio of 0.43 are used in this study. A modulus of elasticity of 1.5 kPa with Poisson\u2019s ratio of 0.4 is used in this study for the body. However, it has a little effect on the results of the lung, which is the focus of this investigation, because boundary conditions are applied to the lungs directly in the no-contact model and from adjacent body nodes in contact surface analysis allowing lungs nodes to slide (figure 3). This effect may be increased by including other contact parameters such as friction. In order to check the accuracy of the model deformation, anatomical points are identified on the inhale image representing the bifurcation of the vessels and bronchi. The same bifurcation points are tracked and located on the exhale images. The actual displacement measurement of these points is represented by the difference between the location of the inhale points and their exhale location. In each lung, 45 bifurcation points are selected as shown in figure 5(a)" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003947_0-387-29012-5-Figure15-2-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003947_0-387-29012-5-Figure15-2-1.png", "caption": "Figure 15-2.

This section addresses the concepts associated with the generalization of classical manipulating structures in the perspective of introducing DOF to form redundant robots. A kinematically redundant manipulator is a robotic arm possessing more DOF than those required to establish an arbitrary position and orientation of the end effector (Figure 4). Redundant manipulators offer several potential advantages over nonredundant arms. In a workspace with obstacles, the extra DOF can be used to move around or between obstacles and, thereby, to manipulate in situations that otherwise would be inaccessible. When a manipulator is redundant it is anticipated that the inverse kinematics admits an infinite number of solutions.

To consider the possibility of undercutting, we refer again to the meshing diagram of the cutting process, shown in Figure 12.12. The interference point of the internal gear is Eg , the point where the common tangent to the base circles touches the internal gear base circle. For an external gear, if the cutting point lies near the interference point, the corresponding point on the gear tooth profile is close to the fillet.

A cutting point near the interference point corresponds to a point near the tip of the gear tooth. ~t the other extreme, point Af of the gear tooth profile, where the involute meets the fillet, is cut when the cutting point lies at Hc' which is the end of the path of contact furthest from the interference point" ], "surrounding_texts": [] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0003317_tec.2003.822294-Figure1-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0003317_tec.2003.822294-Figure1-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 1.

Short interaction times may cause some material to be left unfused because of the inability of substrate or layer surfaces and powders to absorb energies enough to reach melting necessary for fusion thus increasing porosity [42].

The corresponding relationship among Dd, number of defect types, melt pool modes and situation is shown in the Table 2. The change in Dd influences the laser spot size, the internal energy intensity, and the nature of the laser beam. Figure 7(a) shows the correlation between the laser spot size changing and different Dd. With the increase of the absolute value of Dd, the laser spot size increases. The spot size diameter is the same when the absolute value of Dd is the same. The nature of negative defocusing laser beam is convergent. In contrast, the nature of positive defocusing laser beam is divergent. Moreover, the energy distribution changes with the Dd, which is indicated by the system model established in ZEMAX software. According to the simulation results, the maximum laser power density (1", " The flat-top distribution leads to the trough-like melt pools, whereas the Gaussian beam leads to the deep and conical-like melt pools. Under situation II when Dd> 0 mm, the laser power density decreases as the Dd increases due to the increased laser spot size. Besides, the Gaussian distribution transforms into the flat-top. At the same time, the outward-divergent laser beam leads to limited propagating depth. Afterwards, the light is reflected toward the top of the melt pool. After the third reflection, the laser was directly reflected to the outside of the melt pool (Figure 7(c)), leading to the shallow melt pool (CM, Depth < 100 \u03bcm, Width < 200 \u03bcm). In the case of focal position (Dd = 0 mm), the laser spot size is the smallest and the laser power density is the highest. Therefore, the mixture of the deep and shallow melt pools (TM) is formed in specimens fabricated under situation I when Dd= 0 mm compared with the specimens fabricated at Dd > 0 mm. As for the specimens fabricated at Dd < 0 mm, the phenomenon is completely different. After the first reflection, the inward-convergent laser beam propagates to the bottom of the melt pool (Zhang et al. 2018). As for the second reflection, the laser beam is in the depth of the melt pool, and then laser beam travels inward. But after the third reflection, the reflection point of laser is at the middle of the melt pool and the laser travels upward. Finally, the laser beam is reflected from the melt pool (Figure 7(b)). The melt pool mode transforms from TM to KM, then to CM. The melt pool transformation is attributed to the competition between Fresnel absorption and spot size. When the substrate is not far away from the focal position, the laser power density is high enough to trigger the large round pores, and the convergent laser results in strong Fresnel absorption. Hence, the laser beam propagates to the bottom of the melt pool, forming the KM (Depth > 300 \u03bcm, Width > 350 \u03bcm).

The gear tooth symmetry should also be considered, even though the application of symmetrical gears is vastly exceeding their asymmetric counterparts. All the macro-geometric parameters are outcomes of basic tool geometry and the manufacturing process parameters.

The interpenetrating lattices with positions of the \"best fit\" represent a complete description of all the possible boundaries between two crystals of given structures and orientations.

We now consider two interpenetrating translation lattices with an assumption that lattice 1 is fixed and all of the translation and rotation are performed on lattice 2 (Fig. 7.7). With the relative orientation of the two lattices being given, lattice 2 is translated in such a way that one of its points coincides with a point in lattice 1.

Preparation of a density column", "texts": [], "surrounding_texts": [ "column will last a long time and it is possible to remove old samples with a wire basket. Ten minutes is suggested as the minimum time to allow test pieces to come to equilibrium but a large number of samples can be tested at one time and only a very small sample is required. A typical single column apparatus is shown in Figure 7.1. Mass, density and dimensions 99 A useful procedure for checking if test pieces lie within certain limits of density is to prepare two liquids of different but known densities; to be within the known limits a test piece must sink in one liquid and float in the other. This can be employed, for example, to rapidly sort parts made in two materials which have been mixed up. A further variation^ is titration of a heavier liquid into a lighter liquid until the test piece just floats, as given in IS0 1183-1^ Because density is often used as a quality control check on batches of rubber compound, there has been a necessity to make measurements essentially in accordance with standards such as ISO 2781 but making the determinations as rapidly as possible. Hence, various designs of 'specific gravity balance' are in existence which to varjdng degrees automate the process. In the basic forms of apparatus, the practical steps of weighing in air and water are taken but the result may then be read directly from a scale calibrated in density. Complete automation has been achieved both by using the principle of weighing a moulded test piece of known volume and by using the displacement of water principle. For thin sheet material, it will be more expedient, and perhaps more useful, to measure mass per unit area rather than density. This is achieved by weighing a uniformly shaped piece of the material with known dimensions. Obviously, the density of any uniform piece of rubber can be obtained, at least approximately, but weighing and measuring all the dimensions in a non-contact manner." ] }, { "image_filename": "designv10_4_0002921_s0165-0114(03)00135-0-Figure6-1.png", "original_path": "designv10-4/openalex_figure/designv10_4_0002921_s0165-0114(03)00135-0-Figure6-1.png", "caption": "Fig. 6.

Rigid-body and elastically deformed configurations of beam elements, generalized displacements and coordinate systems.", "texts": [ " The displacement finite element method [ 1-3], on the other hand, utilizes the nodal displacements as the unknowns of the problem. The compatibility conditions in and among the elements are initially satisfied. The equations are expressed in terms of these nodal displacements utilizing the equilibrium conditions at each nodal point. The displacement finite element method formulation is in general found to be much simpler for a larger number of structural problems. For this reason, this latter method will be used here to develop the equations of motion. Elastic Beam Element in Plane A general beam element is shown in Fig. 2 in two frames of reference. These are the fixed (O-X-Y) and the rotating (0-x-y) frames, the rotating frame of reference being such that the x-axis is parallel to the beam element axis. The beam element is shown in its rigid-body position (dotted) as well as in its elastically deformed configuration, as shown by the solid lines. The elastic deformations of the beam element may be completely described[3] by the six nodal displacements, u~ through ut, illustrated in Fig. 2. These displacements, shown in their positive directions with reference to the rigid-body position of the beam element, locate the deformed positions of the nodes A and B.

The mechanism hence left is a semi-circular chain joined by parallelogram mechanisms and planar two-legged platform mechanisms and can be illustrated in Fig. 12. Decomposing the above, a quarter-circular chain is obtained in Fig. 13. From the previous analysis, the mobility of this mechanism is one. The second type of supplementary kinematic chains consists of three-legged elementary platforms. The analysis of this type results in mobility one from the similar mobility analysis as before.
