The NASA Lewis Research Center and the Propulsion Directorate of the U.S. Army Aviation Systems Command are involved in a joint research program to advance the technology of rotorcraft transmissions. The program consists of analytical and experimental efforts to achieve the overall goals of reducing transmission weight and noise, while increasing life and reliability. The work includes in-house studies and tests, university grants, industry contracts, and joint programs with other military organizations. Highlights of recent activities in the areas of transmission and related component research are presented. Three major activities are highlighted: (1) the advanced rotorcraft transmission (ART) program; (2) a comprehensive transmission noise reduction program; and (3) a transmission diagnostics research effort. Results of recent activities are presented along with future research plans.
