Massive gear
Diagram of Gear

Extends from Ports.Flange_a_b (Two flange).

Information

Ideal massive gear. N rigidly coupled inertias with gear-ratio

  ratio[1]/ratio[2], .., ratio[end-1]/ratio[end]

Input identical with massless gear 'GearNoMass'.

Gear ratios are defined by relative speed. The following specifications are equivalent

  ratio = {6, 2, 1}
  ratio = {9000, 3000, 1500}

For memorising

  ratio[1]/ratio[end] > 1 if flange_a faster flange_b.
