In this study, atmospheric plasma spray was employed to deposit TiO2–SiAlON ceramic coating on 316 stainless steel. The phases and microstructure of the ceramic coating were investigated. Additionally, comparative studies on the tribological performances of the substrate and the ceramic coating, under both dry and starved lubrication conditions, were carried out. The SiAlON phase was preserved, while partial TiO2 anatase was transformed to rutile phase. The wear rate of the coating was roughly 1/3 of that of the substrate under both conditions. The wear mechanisms of the ceramic coating were surface fracture and abrasive wear in both cases, and the coating under starved lubrication underwent less abrasion. The pores in the coating served as micro-reservoirs, forming an oil layer on the mating surface, and improving tribological properties during sliding.

The present paper is focused on the torsional instabilities of the intermediate shaft in a two stage gear system. A theoretical model is established taking account in the torsional flexibility of the intermediate shaft and the meshing time-varying stiffness of the gears. Multiple scale method is applied to analysis the instability areas of the gear system for which the generalized modal coordinate is adopted. The result is certificated by numerical integrals of the dynamic equations by Runge-Kutta Method.

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) processing is generally applied on the area of molding plastic component or mating surface required high accuracy. The areas determine the quality of the plastic components. The principle of EDM is based on the material vaporization of high potential difference across the workpiece and Tool electrode. Tool electrode and workpieces are discontiguous when the EDM processes. Because there is no mechanical contact, Hardness and strength of the workpiece material have minimal effect on the material removal rate .The application of EDM technology on injection mold of automotive connector is focused on in this paper. Processing of the complex cores is researched. The design and processing of the tool electrode have been completed in the meantime.

The present paper deals with the zero friction dynamics of an automotive transmission consisting of an inboard ball joint close to the wheel and an outboard tripod joint close to the gearbox, connected by an intermediate shaft. The ball joint is a constant-velocity joint (CVJ) whereas the tripod joint is not. In the idealized case of an intermediate shaft of infinite length, the tripod joint behaves like a CVJ and has the following properties: the input and output torque are equal, the transverse forces generating the output torque are equal and there are no shudder vibrations or inertial shaft effects. For a real transmission with a finite-length shaft, deviations from constant-velocity (CV) properties are due to tripod joint angle variation which causes static and dynamic perturbations; these perturbations are expressed symbolically using first-order approximations in terms of tripod joint angle and ratio of shaft length to tulip radius. For most of the front drive cars equipped, the angle of the tripod joint remains close to 0.1 rad; considering a constant input torque at a 100rad/s input velocity, the perturbations are found to be less than 3 per cent for the driving forces when compared with the CVJ.

The Thompson coupling is a relatively recent design of constant-velocity coupling, that is, principally based on the double Cardan mechanism. An extra mechanism comprising a spherical pantograph serves to align the intermediate shaft of this coupling and so maintains the constant velocity of the double Cardan mechanism, in a modular fashion. This technical note serves to introduce basic closed form expressions for the coupling’s geometry—which may then be used to derive linkage accelerations and dynamic forces. The expressions are derived using standard identities in spherical geometry. The resulting dynamic model then informs a basic conceptual design optimization, which object is intended to reduce induced driveline vibrations, when the coupling is articulated at nonzero angles of torque transmission.
