Shaft in Gearbox (static analysis)
Good day to you sir
I am trying to solve a similar situation for an intermediate shaft in a 2-stage gearbox but not modal analysis rather a simple von Mises static analysis on the whole shaft length, would like to know how to adapt these loads and constraints and other idealizations to run a similar case, is it necessary to idealize all the whole bearing Assembly like this or just adding 2 spring idealization and a weighted link to the surface area of the acting bearing suffice, as far as the simulation is on the shaft, the consideration of gear teeth doesn't matter so applying torque on the disk with pitch diameter is satisfactory right ? i would like to know how to apply idealized torque on these 2 helical gears while i have 2 fixed bearing holding this shaft and enduring a preload in between.
regards
