Calculation, design and prototype wheel hub drive

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on seeking guidance for a thesis on wheel hub drive design and calculations. The original poster is looking for insights from those with experience in the field and plans to simulate the design using SCILABS/XCOS. Suggestions include purchasing a wheel hub drive to study its mechanics and design improvements firsthand. Engaging with a physical model can enhance understanding and support theoretical arguments with practical observations. The conversation emphasizes the value of hands-on experience in the learning process.

Hello All !

Above is the title of the topic and am looking for inputs. Right now I am working on this as my thesis. And I am looking for some one how have already worked in the similar field for a better guidance for me. Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Why not buy one and study it?
 
Mr. Travis_king,

I am searching for projects on this or the people who worked before :( I have got to write my MAster Thesis on this and firstly I have to simulate this on SCILABS/XCOS. So, I want to have some valuable inputs :)

REgards,
 
You can do both...I think the best way to learn about the thing is to buy one and see what makes it work. See what's good about the design and what could be improved. If you have it there and can play around with it, you'll be much better equipped to make arguments about how future/other designs should be developed. You can take calculations you've dug up or come up with and run experiments to prove them, or to improve them based on actual observations.

But if you don't want to buy one, as they cost more than a few bucks, then good hunting.
 
I have Mass A being pulled vertically. I have Mass B on an incline that is pulling Mass A. There is a 2:1 pulley between them. The math I'm using is: FA = MA / 2 = ? t-force MB * SIN(of the incline degree) = ? If MB is greater then FA, it pulls FA up as MB moves down the incline. BUT... If I reverse the 2:1 pulley. Then the math changes to... FA = MA * 2 = ? t-force MB * SIN(of the incline degree) = ? If FA is greater then MB, it pulls MB up the incline as FA moves down. It's confusing...
Hi. I noticed that all electronic devices in my household that also tell time eventually lag behind, except the ones that get synchronized by radio signal or internet. Most of them are battery-powered, except my alarm clock (which runs slow as well). Why does none of them run too fast? Deliberate design (why)? Wrong temperature for quartz crystal? Decreasing battery voltage? Or just a coincidence?
