Torsen LSD - Torque Transfer - Explained

From the creator

How do Torsen limited slip differentials transfer torque? The Torsen differential is a very unique type of LSD, which was invented by Vernon Gleasman in the 1950's. It allows for a ratio of torque split between the drive wheels, and it allows for differing speeds of the drive shafts, much like a typical LSD. The manner in which it transfers torque is unique, however it applies the same principles as any other LSD.
