dc.descriptionTitle: A Basic System for Computerized Drafting of Power Train Shafts, Author: John K. Newlin, Location: Thodeen_US
dc.description.abstract<p>A set of parameters is described by which a designer can easily express a shaft to a computer numerically. Relationships of these parameters to different shaft geometries are described. Logic is provided for translation from the designer's parameters into parameters convenient for manipulation by the computer and for detecting inconsistencies in the designer's description of a shaft.</p> <p>Details are given of logic by which a computer can plan locations for shaft dimensioning, along with logic for the drawing and dimensioning of shafts by a digital plotter.</p> <p>The full listing is given in FORTRAN for a computer program and ten subprograms embodying the logic. Shafts drawn by the computer appear, and the economic feasibility of computer drafting of shafts is discussed.</p>en_US
