Distributed Fixed-Time Cooperative Guidance Law for Simultaneous Attack With Impact Angle Constraint by Yu Zhang, Shiyan Sun

“…First, a fixed-time cooperative guidance law with fast convergence is designed in the line-of-sight (LOS) direction and an auxiliary function is designed to solve the singularity problem; after that, a cooperative guidance law in the LOS normal direction is designed to ensure that each missile attacks the target simultaneously at the desired attack angle. …”

Modification Method of RV Cycloid Gear based on the Tooth Profile Pressure Angle Distribution by Jinfan Li, Tianxing Li, Yulong Li, Meng Tian, Jingyuan Zhou, Ruiyao Zhang

“…Therefore，a new tooth profile modification design method is proposed based on the distribution law of the pressure angle of the cycloid tooth profile. Based on the pressure angle distribution trend obtained by calculation and analysis，the mathematical model of tooth profile modification with straight-line method is established，and the function representation between the tooth profile pressure angle and the modification amount is deduced，the tooth contact analysis model is constructed，and the transmission error of modified cycloid-pin gear is obtained. …”

OPTIMIZATION METHOD OF CYCLOIDAL PIN GEAR TOOTH PROFILE CURVE BASED ON PRESSURE ANGLE by LI YouTang, DONG HaoNan

“…According to the theory of cycloidal pin gear drive,a method of tooth profile optimization based on pressure angle was proposed.The cycloidal pin gear tooth profile was divided into working section and non⁃working section.The factors that affected the pressure angle of the working section were modification parameters and design parameters.The influence of the two types of parameters on the pressure angle was discussed.With the two types of parameters as design variables and the average pressure angle of the working section as the objective function,the cycloidal gear of RV⁃550E reducer was optimally designed by determining the boundary conditions from the requirements of motion and lubrication.The results show that this method reduces the average pressure angle of the working section of the example by 4.14%,the maximum value of the pressure angle in the single tooth meshing process by 1.35%,the maximum Mises stress of the contact tooth pair before and after optimization by 20.77%,the occurrence position is transferred from the cycloidal gear to the pin gear,and the model mass reduces by 9.38%,which can ensure that there is no undercut phenomenon and obtain a good combined modify effect.…”
