Life analysis of helical gear sets using Lundberg-Palmgren theory [PDF]

open access: yes
A mathematical model is developed for surface fatigue life of helical gears. The expected fatigue life of a pinion, gear, or gear set may be calculated from the model. An equation for the dynamic capacity of a gear set was also derived.

The role of thermal and lubricant boundary layers in the transient thermal analysis of spur gears [PDF]

open access: yes
An improved convection heat-transfer model has been developed for the prediction of the transient tooth surface temperature of spur gears. The dissipative quality of the lubricating fluid is shown to be limited to the capacity extent of the thermal ...

Concussed: Unintended Consequences of the Guardian Cap Mandate in the NFL

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Guardian Caps are padded shells worn over American football helmets to cushion impacts and reduce concussion risks. In 2022, the NFL mandated their use for specific position groups during preseason practices, later expanding this requirement. While the league praised the Caps for enhancing player safety, skeptics argue they may promote riskier

Embedded Interactions and Selective Disclosure: Network Effects on Conversations aboard Skylab

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
How do absent others influence our interactions? We argue in this paper that interactions are embedded within networks formed by chains of specific relationships between known third parties. The anticipation of future interactions with external others conditions our interpretation of the current situation and affects our behavior in the interaction. We

Dynamics of a split torque helicopter transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
A high reduction ratio split torque gear train has been proposed as an alternative to a planetary configuration for the final stage of a helicopter transmission. A split torque design allows a high ratio of power-to-weight for the transmission.

The “We” and “Me” of Identity in Hazardous Industry Organizations: Face Work Tactics Among Practicing Engineers

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
In this paper, we use Goffman's notion of “face work” to examine how pipeline engineers perform and present their working selves as competent experts. Our analysis identifies various faces and face work tactics, including a focus on professional judgment, actively selling one's expertise relative to others, protective self‐deprecatory strategies, and ...
