Design and Optimization of a Hybrid Vehicle Transmission

The article "Design and Optimization of a Hybrid Vehicle Transmission" appeared in the May 2019 issue of Gear Technology.

Summary
The paper is not the proof of a discovery, but it is the description of a method: the optimization of the microgeometry for cylindrical gears. The method has been applied and described on some transmissions with helical gears and compound epicyclic, used on different hybrid vehicles. However, the method is also valid for industrial gearboxes.
