  2. 1. On the Design and Life Prediction of Transmission Belts Made of Elastomer Composites

    Author : Dag Fritzson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Friction; Material properties; Elastomer; Composite; Damage; Fatigue; Viscoelastic; Anisotropic; Wear; Constitutive theory; Life prediciton; V-belt; Belt transmission; Rubber;

    Abstract : Next to gear transmissions, belt transmissions are the most important mechanical transmissions. Today, belt design and development is based on extensive application tests of belts in the product development process. There is a need for theory development and design support systems. READ MORE
