Authors of this paper previously worked on the rigid body dynamic simulation of thecycloidal reducer to calculate motion related

16、dynamic forces of the reducer 7. Those forces were thenapplied to the rotating parts in a static FEA environment. The results, however, are limited by the rigid-bodyassumption which cannot deduce material-based contact stiffness and consequently accurate contactstresses. This limitation is overcome

17、in the current study by performing analysis in a dynamic FEAenvironment.To the authors knowledge, the following studies have been done on this topic.Malhotra and Parameswaran proposed a theoretical method to calculate contact force distribution on thecycloidal disc 8. The analysis is based on one di
