Quasi-static analysis of spline coupling under load
Résumé
This paper presents a procedure for analyzing the instantaneous loaded contact of the spline joints. The process permits very fast computation of load sharing, including bending and contact effects. It uses the method of the influence coefficients resolving the equation of compatibility of the displacements. A study of the numerical model allows to show the influence of the deformation of the shafts and of the mounting errors on the contact pressure distribution.
