Translational Spring
• A translational spring is a mechanical element that
can be deformed by an external force such that the
deformation is directly proportional to the force
applied to it.

Translational Spring
• If F is the applied force
• Then is the deformation if
• Or is the deformation.
• The equation of motion is given as
• Where is stiffness of spring expressed in N/m
Translational Mass
• Translational Mass is an inertia Translational Mass
element. ii)
• A mechanical system without
mass does not exist.
• If a force F is applied to a mass
and it is displaced to x meters
then the relation b/w force and M
displacements is given by
Newton’s law.
Translational Damper
• When the viscosity or drag is not
negligible in a system, we often
model them with the damping
force.
• All the materials exhibit the Translational Damper
iii)
property of damping to some
extent.
• If damping in the system is not
enough then extra elements
(e.g. Dashpot) are added to
increase damping.
Common Uses of Dashpots
Door Stoppers
Vehicle Suspension
Bridge Suspension
Flyover Suspension
Translational Damper
• Where C is damping coefficient (N/ms-1).

MECHANICAL SYSTEMS WITH GEARS
37
Gear
• Gear is a toothed machine part, such
as a wheel or cylinder, that meshes
with another toothed part to
transmit motion or to change speed
or direction.
38
Fundamental Properties
• The two gears turn in opposite directions: one clockwise and
the other counterclockwise.
• Two gears revolve at different speeds when number of teeth
on each gear are different.
39
Gear Ratio
• You can calculate the gear ratio by using
the number of teeth of the driver
divided by the number of teeth of the
follower.
• We gear up when we increase velocity Driver
and decrease torque. Follower
Ratio: 3:1
• We gear down when we increase torque
and reduce velocity.
Ratio: 1:3

Gear train
41
Example of Gear Trains
• A most commonly used example of gear trains is the gears of
an automobile.
42
Example-1
• Following figure shows gears driving a rotational inertia, spring,
and damper.
• We want to represent above system with an equivalent system at
without the gears.
• In other words, can the mechanical impedances be reflected from
the output to the input, thereby eliminating the gears?
43
Example-1
• T1 can be reflected to the output by multiplying by .
44
Example-1
• T1 can be reflected to the output by multiplying by .

𝑁1 𝑁1 𝑁1
𝑇 ( 𝑠) = 𝐽 𝑠2 + 𝐷 𝑠+ 𝐾 𝜃1 ( 𝑠)

• Equivalent system without gears

2 2 2
𝑁1 2 𝑁1 𝑁1
𝑇 ( 𝑠) = 𝐽 𝑠 +𝐷 𝑠+ 𝐾 𝜃1 ( 𝑠)
𝑁2 𝑁2 𝑁2
• Generalizing the results, we can make the following
statement:
– Rotational mechanical impedances can be reflected through
gear trains by multiplying the mechanical impedance by the
ratio
46
Example-2
• Find the transfer function, , for the following system.
It may be tempting at this point to search for two simultaneous equations
corresponding to each inertia. The inertias, however, do not undergo linearly
independent motion, since they are tied together by the gears. Thus, there is
only one degree of freedom and hence one equation of motion.
47
Example-2
• Let us first reflect the
impedances (J1 and
D1) and torque (T1) on
the input shaft to the
output.
