    Automotive Stiffness and dumping coeficients of a VW Golf

    stiffness and damping coeficients of a VW Golf Hi! I need information about the VW Golf IV 1.6 16V(2003). I need to estimate and calculate the transfer function of the quarter model car so i need the coeficients of stiffness (K) (N/m) and damping (C) (Ns/m) of the front suspension, its...

    Automotive Exploring CVT Extroid Gearbox: Looking for Ideas!

    Yes, contact stresses is the main weakness. It's just the same thing the teacher said when i asked him about this work. And for me honestly i think is a challengue to find the proper material. I tried some numbers with the geometry i designed and i supposed using steel and that's what i got...

    Automotive Exploring CVT Extroid Gearbox: Looking for Ideas!

    Here more info about how that it works. Detail of the differents transmission ratio. Rápido=fast. Lento=slow. You can see that the slow disc has a bigger Torque than the fast disc, to keep the relation P=T*W...

    Automotive Exploring CVT Extroid Gearbox: Looking for Ideas!

    Think so. It's extremely difficult to find some good information about this CVT. And like you say i developed some basics analysis about contact stresses,ratio of transmision,fatigue...things that you can study in a meng(mechanical engineering) basic course. To improve the design with the...

    Automotive Exploring CVT Extroid Gearbox: Looking for Ideas!

    Ok man. First, that's a work done by a student of engineering(not by a pro) so it has many limitations. It based on the NISSAN design. http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg35/scaled.php?server=35&filename=cvt1d.jpg&res=landing You could see that the design is very similar, the only thing that...

    Automotive Exploring CVT Extroid Gearbox: Looking for Ideas!

    I'm very interested in the cvt extroid gearbox, and I'm looking for more information. I make a project using SolidWorks and all the information i could receive is useful for me! I put the video here, if you have some ideas for improve the project please tell me! thanks...
