Abstract Power transmission for mechanical systems often involves the use of clutching- or dissipative-elements to protect drive systems and provide steady output power.

This paper presents a magnetorheological-fluid-based differential (planetary) gear transmission which serves to variably couple motor power through a sun gear input to a load affixed to a planet carrier output. This is achieved both rapidly and continuously through ...
