1. 16. FE analysis of a dog clutch for trucks withall-wheel-drive

   University essay from Institutionen för teknik, TEK

   Author : Mattias Andersson; Kordian Goetz; [2010]
   Keywords : Gleason type curvic coupling; Dog clutch; All-wheel-drive; FE analysis; Klokoppling; Allhjulsdrift; FE-analys;

   Abstract : The thesis is carried out in order to improve the transfer case in trucks with all-wheel-drive. When the truck loses traction at the rear wheels, due to slippery surfaces, wheel-spin occurs. If the driver engages the all-wheel-drive at a point where traction already has been lost, a relative rotational speed in the dog clutch will occur. READ MORE
