Hi everyone. I have 2 ellipses (like 2 elliptical gears) which have connected axes with revolute mate. Ellipses are connected with their elliptical surfaces in contact with tangent mate.When animating revolute mate in 0...360 degree range, pinion ellipse is revolving in one direction, and gear ellipse instead of revolving in opposite direction, as soon as pinion pasts 90 degrees, gear ellipse revolves in same direction, in intermittent fashion. Could someone help me with this? How to obtain natural gear motion between ellipse gear pair?
