  2. Critical speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_speed

    Stiffness of the shaft and its support; Total mass of shaft and attached parts; Unbalance of the mass with respect to the axis of rotation; The amount of damping in the system; In general, it is necessary to calculate the critical speed of a rotating shaft, such as a fan shaft, in order to avoid issues with noise and vibration.

  3. Shaft (mechanical engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_(mechanical_engineering)

    The following stresses are induced in the shafts.. Shear stresses due to the transmission of torque (due to torsional load).; Bending stresses (tensile or compressive) due to the forces acting upon the machine elements like gears and pulleys as well as the self weight of the shaft.

  4. Weight transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight_transfer

    For instance in a 0.9g turn, a car with a track of 1650 mm and a CoM height of 550 mm will see a load transfer of 30% of the vehicle weight, that is the outer wheels will see 60% more load than before, and the inners 60% less. Total available grip will drop by around 6% as a result of this load transfer.

  5. Rotordynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotordynamics

    Rotordynamics (or rotor dynamics) is a specialized branch of applied mechanics concerned with the behavior and diagnosis of rotating structures. It is commonly used to analyze the behavior of structures ranging from jet engines and steam turbines to auto engines and computer disk storage.

  6. Magnetic coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_coupling

    This coupling features two face-to-face magnetized disks: the driving magnet on the dry side, and the driven magnet on the underwater side. Torque is transferred by shear forces between the attracting magnetic disks, [5] but this attraction can also produce an axial load as the disks pull on each other. There are two main designs for the ...

  7. Propeller theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller_theory

    An alternative design is the controllable-pitch propeller (CPP, or CRP for controllable-reversible pitch), where the blades are rotated normally to the drive shaft by additional machinery – usually hydraulics – at the hub and control linkages running down the shaft. This allows the drive machinery to operate at a constant speed while the ...

  9. Tapered roller bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapered_roller_bearing

    Common real world applications are in agriculture, construction and mining equipment, sports robot combat, axle systems, gear box, engine motors and reducers, propeller shaft, railroad axle-box, differential, wind turbines, etc. A tapered roller bearing is a unit that consists of both tapered raceways (inner and outer rings), and tapered rollers.
