  1. 1. Virtual verification and improvement of innovative wind turbine gearbox design

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Ioannis Pierratos; [2021]
    Keywords : Gearbox; Multibody Dynamics; Wind Turbine; Multikroppsdynamik MBS ; Vindkraftverk; Växellåda;

    Abstract : Cascade Drives develops electromechanical linear actuators based on multiple pinions interacting with a gear rack. With a patented load sharing mechanism, that uses flexible torsional elements, the torque is equally distributed among the pinions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Efficiency verification of an electromechanical linear actuator

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Ingela Råberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Efficiency; Linear actuator; Modelling; Romax; Linjärt ställdon; Modellering; Romax; Verkningsgrad;

    Abstract : Cascade Drives has developed an electromechanical linear actuator with a patented feature which allows for load sharing between multiple pinions interacting on the same rack. This arrangement has proven resilient for shock loads, and allows for compact gearbox designs with very high load rating. READ MORE

  4. 3. Compression Characteristics of Elastomer Elements

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Rahul Nagaraj Dixit; [2021]
    Keywords : Continuum mechanics; Hyperelasticity; Mooney Rivlin; Rack and Pinion; Kontinuummekanik; Hyperelasticitet; Mooney Rivlin; Kuggstångsväxel;

    Abstract : Compression of elastomer elements are nonlinear due to the cross-linked molecular structure owing to a property known as hyperelasticity. Hyperelasticity is defined as the nonlinear stress-strain behavior shown by rubber like materials which can be strained up to a range of 700% in tension and up to 40% in compression. READ MORE

  5. 4. Characterization of Cascade gearbox for wave energy converter

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Jacob Ljungbäck; [2015]
    Keywords : Dynamic; Static; Model; Cascade; Gear; Backlash; Dynamisk; Statisk; Modell; Kaskad; Kugghjul; Flankspel;

    Abstract : This Master Thesis, written in collaboration with CorPower Ocean, serves as the finalization of the author’s master degree education at KTH (Royal Institute of Technology) Stockholm. The purpose has been to characterize the Cascade gearbox which is used to convert vertical motion induced by waves to rotational motion which powers generators in the company’s future wave energy power plant.

  6. 5. Concept Development of anElectromechanical Cylinder : With a Cascade Gear Unit

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Karl Bergqvist; Linn Sevefjord; [2014]
    Keywords : electromechanical cylinders; concept development; cascade gearbox; elektromekanisk cylinder; konceptutveckling; kaskadväxel;

    Abstract : A new invention has been developed by CorPower Ocean; a mechanical rack and pinion solution called a cascade gearbox. The primary function of the gearbox is transforming a linear motion into a rotational motion. The novelty is its unique properties; it is capable of combining heavy loads and high velocities, and at a high efficiency. READ MORE
