| Abstract | The Rzeppa type constant velocity joint is widely used in the tire side of driveshafts. Analyzing joint ball rotational behavior could contribute to durability and functional improvement. To analyze ball behavior, we applied a multibody dynamics approach including a stick slip friction force model. This model allows the calculation of ball angular velocity. We have established an experiment method which quantifies ball angular velocity through multipoint measuring and graphical analysis, enabling the accurate prediction of ball behavior. |
