Spatial Dynamics of Pushbelt CVTs: Model Enhancements to a Non-smooth Flexible Multibody System

This study treats the spatial dynamics of pushbelt continuously variable transmissions. The basis is a transient non-smooth flexible multibody system. This model is modularly refined by means of different enhancements to represent the physical characteristics of the transmission more in detail. The effects of the different model enhancements on single phenomena are analysed and comparisons with measurements validate the model.
