Description
The Gear models an ideal gearbox with two shafts rotating in the same direction.
The shaft moving with is marked with a dot. The relation between the torques
and angular speeds of the two shafts is described with the following equations:

Parameter
- Gear ratio
- The gearbox ratio
. A negative gearbox ratio will cause the shafts to rotate in opposite directions.
