CLUTCHES AND DISK BRAKES
The axial force, W, associated with a radial pressure
distribution, P(r), between one pair of contacting
surfaces in a clutch or disk brake (assuming that the
brake pad is a sector of an annulus) is:

where θ is the angle subtended by the brake pad (θ
= 2π for a clutch), r is the radial position, R1 is the
inner radius of the brake pad or clutch and R2 is its
outer radius.
Similarly, the maximum torque, T, at the point of slip
due to one pair of contacting surfaces in a clutch or
disk brake is given by:

In a new clutch or disk brake the pressure distribution
can be assumed to be equal to a constant pressure, P0,
so:

is that the pressure distribution is inversely
proportional to radial position:

bearing may be defined (other definitions possible) as:

angular velocity of the shaft and P is the nominal
pressure (the radial load divided by projected area).

D

where Dp is the pitch circle diameter, N is the number if
teeth and P is the circular pitch. In order for a pair of

denoted by the subscript i, is assumed lossless then:
0=∑i

where the torque, Ti, and angular velocity, ωi, on a
particular shaft are measured in the same direction.
An epicyclic gearbox operating at constant speed must
be in moment equilibrium, hence:

RECIPROCATING MACHINERY
The oscillating force, F, required to accelerate and

velocity of the crank, t is time and q is the ratio of
connecting rod length, d, to crank length (i.e. q = d / r).
The two terms are usually considered separately as
primary and secondary out-of-balance forces. The
amplitude of the primary out-of-balance force, F1, is
therefore:
