The analytical expression of [R.sub.s] for the frictionless rigid model has been already defined in [12], where it has been found that deformations exert little effects on load transfer in frictionless spline couplings.

The reconstruction of [psi]([eta]) in the free molecule regime and continuum regime for different moments (m) by cubic spline is shown in Figure 2, where the references are from Lai et al.

The parameters B1 and B2 for the polynomial model demonstrated that these parameters for QTc Spline lie closer to zero, that is, a flat line (Figures 3 and 4).
