Abstract

This study investigates the effect of helix angle on the performance of electric vehicle transmission systems using a helical-rotor-geared test apparatus. Several gears and pinions with different helix angles were manufactured and tested at two rotational speeds. The research combined theoretical modeling and finite element analysis to calculate natural frequencies, followed by vibration analysis using an experimental setup. The Fast Fourier Transform was applied to accelerometer data to evaluate the dynamic behavior. The results showed that larger helix angles reduced vibration amplitude and noise levels. This occurs because smoother meshing at higher angles leads to improved load distribution and lower transmission disturbances. The combination of simulation and physical testing supports the optimization of gear dynamics in electric vehicle powertrains, contributing to quieter and more efficient systems.

Abstract

This study investigates the mechanical and tribological behavior of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) composites reinforced with 1–5% multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Research on PVDF-based nanocomposites has increased significantly, according to a quick bibliometric screening of Scopus-indexed publications. MWCNTs were found to be one of the most influential reinforcement keywords, indicating a high level of interest in mechanically optimized polymer systems worldwide. In this study, specimens were tested for tensile, flexural, hardness, impact, wear, and reversed-bending fatigue performance. Results reveal that 3% MWCNT provides optimal strengthening, improving tensile and flexural properties, hardness, wear resistance, and fatigue life while reducing void content. Finite element simulations using ANSYS aligned with experimental findings, showing deviations below 10%. Statistical analysis (ANOVA) confirmed significant effects of MWCNT content. Overall, PVDF/UPR–MWCNT composites demonstrate excellent potential for advanced lightweight structural applications.
