On the Effect of DLC and WCC Coatings on the Efficiency of Manual Transmission Gear Pairs

An experimentally validated tribo-dynamic model has been developed to predict the gear teeth frictional losses considering the properties of the diamond-like-carbon (DLC)-coated and tungsten carbide carbon (WCC)-coated surface. The operating conditions used are snapshots of the Real Driving Emission...
