In this paper, studies on dynamic modeling, simulation and experiment of power
transmission belt drives are comprehensively reviewed. In the past few decades, many …

In this study, a dynamic finite element model is developed for pulley belt-drive systems and
is employed to determine the transient and steady-state response of a prototypical belt-drive …

Computational Dynamics, 3rd edition, thoroughly revised and updated, provides logical
coverage of both theory and numerical computation techniques for practical applications …

In this paper, the applicability of the absolute nodal coordinate formulation for the modeling
of belt-drive systems is studied. A successful and effective analyzing method for belt-drive …

In this paper, new nonlinear dynamic formulations for belt drives based on the three-
dimensional absolute nodal coordinate formulation are developed. Two large deformation …

This paper presents an analytical solution for the rope-sheave contact problem in static
conditions, also applicable to belt-pulley problems and similar mechanisms. The rope is …

Due to the apparent heat generation and the observed multiple thermal effects in the long-
term operation of belt drive system, the thermo-mechanical coupled analysis for the flexible …

The Capstan formula is a common theoretical model that has been widely used to
characterize friction between tendons and sheaths in tendon-driven transmission systems …

In this paper we report the results of an experimental investigation aimed at determining the
tension variation in a flat belt transmission. The belt tension was obtained by measuring its …

This article performs a comparative analysis of noise generated by conveyor belts with
different design parameters. The study was conducted for belts with the same tensile …
