$986,044Potential NASA Commercial Applications:
(Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words) This research offers many attractive benefits for rotorcraft systems. These benefits include large weight savings which directly corresponds to increased performance. This research also potentially decreases the amount of individual parts in the gearbox system, by co-molding and directly attaching features. Decreased parts directly affect maintenance costs and intervals. These benefits would be beneficial to both NASA applications as well as commercial rotorcraft systems. There is virtually no rotorcraft system that couldn't incorporate this research into their existing or new systems.
Potential NON-NASA Commercial Applications:
:
(Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words) While the focus of this work is on rotorcraft, if proven successful this technology could be applied to gears across many consumer industries such as industrial and automotive.
