in actual practise a fluid coupling is used to connect with a gearbox in between and the whole assembly is placed in nascelle.

automatic trasmissions in cars have fluid couplings. Its a frictionless and non impact mechanism. its much more costly though. visit how stuff works things work at howstuuworks.com for more pictures and animated media on the same
