The load sharing and teeth deflection of helical gear system are analyzed to investigate the deformation overlap. The deformation overlap, which is calculated by the results of displacement analysis, is suggested as the basis for the tooth profile modification. Helical gear systems are formulated as contact problems, and solved by elastic contact theory and FEM. The developed computer program, which offers gear teeth deflection and deformation overlap, will be of much help to the improved design of manual transmissions for automobiles.

A profile shifted gear system was analyzed to select the optimum profile shift coefficient, which minimizes gear teeth deflection. Contact force and deformation overlap were calculated by means of FEM and contact theory. The deformation overlap is suggested for an effective indicator to represent the whole deformation of gear system. The optimum value of profile shift coefficients was presented with respect to the deformation of gear system.

This study is concerned with the numerical investigation of dynamic characteristics of 2.5MW-class wind turbine gearbox in which the misalignment improvement of plenary gear shafts by the flexible pins and the dynamic impact response are analyzed by the finite element method. The tooth contact between gears is modelled using the line element having the equivalent tooth stiffness and the contact ratio to accurately and effectively reflect the load transmission in the internal complex gear system. The equivalent tooth stiffness is calculated by utilizing the tooth deformation analysis and the impulse torque is applied to the input shaft for the dynamics response characteristic analysis. Through the numerical experiments, the equivalent tooth stiffness model was validated and the misalignment improvement of planetary gear shafts was confirmed from the comparison with the cases of fixed shafts at one and both ends.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a profile modification technique of spur gears and its computer program for the prevention of gear tooth overlap. In the gear system, tooth overlap produces an impact at the initial contact of some tooth pairs. In this analysis, contact surface was assumed to be unbonded and frictionless under small deformation and stain. The problem is formulated by a variational statement with inequality constraint. Tooth load sharing is obtained by the application of contact theory, and overlap is known by the analysis of deformation. After carrying out the profile modification of gear tooth, we verified the reasonable results.

This paper introduces a study on an electromagnet magnetic gear designed for gear ratio conversion. In comparison to magnetic gears using permanent magnets, this electromagnet magnetic gear exhibits lower torque density, highlighting the need for torque density improvement. To address this, the research focuses on enhancing torque density by examining the consistent orientation of each rotor's magnetization during gear ratio conversion and attaching permanent magnets accordingly. However, an issue arises due to the uneven magnetic flux density caused by the non-uniform attachment of permanent magnets, leading to an increase in torque ripple. Therefore, building upon previous studies aimed at reducing torque ripple in electromagnet magnetic gears, this research explores the optimal methods, such as pole piece bridges and fillet configurations, to mitigate torque ripple even during gear ratio conversion.

Most of the greenhouses employ the roll-up type ventilation control system. Torque required to roll-up and down might be theoretically expressed with the weight times radius of the ventilation roll; however, measured torques were two times of the theoretically estimated values. As the window film of roll-up vent is used over the periods of time, the warping and crumpling of the material caused the increase of the torque in addition to a span deformation. Therefore, this study was performed to develop an empirical torque formulae to present basic torque data and to assist the development of roll-up type ventilation control system. The empirically adjusted rolling radius (r＋a) exponentially increased at the maximum span deformation. The coefficient of rolling resistance (Cr) was about 0.7―0.8 depending upon the wrinkle status of film material.

Weight optimization was performed for a rotorcraft shaft system using one-dimensional Euler-Bernoulli beam elements. Torsion, shaft support stiffness such as bearings, flange mass are all considered. To guarantee structural dynamic stability, eigenvalue analysis was performed to avoid critical speed and tooth mesh excitation form the gearbox. The weight optimization was performed by adjusting the thickness and radius while the length of the shaft was fixed, and the optimization process was divided into two stages. In the first, the weight is optimized with the torsional strength constraint. In the second, the difference between the primary mode of shaft and the critical speed is maximized so that the primary mode of the shaft can avoid the critical speed while the constraint on the torsional strength of the shaft is satisfied according to the standard for shaft system stability (AMC P 706-201, 1974). The proposed method was verified by comparing the results of the optimal design using the given one-dimensional beam elements with the stress results of the 3D finite element and the actual manufactured shaft.
