Design of Mechanical Transmission Systems

ABOUT THE COURSE: The design of mechanical transmission systems deals with the design of mechanical components involved in transmitting power among systems. The beginning of this course deals with the design of machine tool gearboxes, followed by the design of automobile gearboxes by considering the significance of weight constraint, ray and kinematic diagrams construction, gear material selection, lubricant selection, and design of the gearbox casing. Further, discussed the design of different types of Brakes, dynamic and thermal analysis of two-axle vehicle including selection of friction materials based on vehicle dimensions. Similarly, clutch system by considering the different types, thermal analysis, and selection of friction lining material. Further, design of belt drives is explained. Thus, this course plays a vital role in the safe design of Mechanical Transmission Systems.INTENDED AUDIENCE: Mechanical Engineering /Automobile Engineering / Engineering Design / Production EngineeringPREREQUISITES: Strength of Materials and Design of Machine ElementsINDUSTRY SUPPORT: Automotive Industry/Gearbox manufacturers/ Brake manufacturers
