Theoretical research of transmissions and gearboxes

Abstract

Significant aspects of the consequences of global warming and some measures that can be undertaken in order to reduce energy consumption and harmful emissions have been presented. The most important actions I this field are related to the renewal of the design of automobile vehicles and their components. A theoretical survey has been carried out in two main areas: invesitigating possibilities of improving the operational characteristics and the design parameters of transmissions and gearboxes, aiming to identify the areas of future dissertation research. A systematization of the reviewed scientific publications has been carried out. Main areas in which additional research can be carried out, related to the specific features of the Bulgarian industry and the state of the available cars in usage, have been identified.
