Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to present a planetary gearbox for wind turbine. At constant wind power input the planetary gearbox is able to provide variable speed of the output shaft. The main purpose of the differential transmission is on the capability to adapt the operation to variable loading of wind. A CAD model has been proposed in order to investigate the operation feasibility of the proposed design solution. A proper dynamic model has been developed in ADAMS software. Simulation tests have been carried out and results are discussed to validate the proposed design solution.
