Hi!
I am trying to calculate the radial force that a garter spring makes on a shaft.
Could anyone give some information about how to design a garter spring, or how to calculate the radial force?
I have been seaerching but didnt find anything so far..
Thanks!
I would like to calculate the force that a extension spring makes to a tube when is wrapped on it. Imagine a circular tube where you wrap a extension spring so it remains tensed up, pressing the tube surface like a clamp.
So I would like to calculate the force (knowing the K of the spring) that...
