Transmission error (TE) is the most important cause of gear noise and vibration because TEs affect the changes of the force and the speed of gears. TE is usually expressed as an angular deviation, or a linear deviation measured at the pitch point and calculated at successive positions of the pinion as it goes through the meshing cycle. Accurate measurement of TE for gear transmission will provide a reasonable basis for gear design, manufacturing processes and quality control. Therefore, in order to study the accuracy of the gear transmission, stability, TE, vibration and noise after gear micro-geometry modification, a gear transmission test rig is proposed in this paper, which is based on the existing technical conditions, by using reasonable testing methods, hardware and a signal processing method. All of the details and the experience can be taken into consideration in the next upgraded test rig.

The object of this study is to investigate influences of supplied lubricant quantities on spur gear's pitting life. Pitting is a sort of contact fatigue failures and made by a repetitive load. Basically, pitting is difficult to predict its life by an analysis due to many factors to be considered about tribology problems. In this paper, pitting life was proved by experiment using two roller machine. For a contact fatigue test, operating circumstances should be considered. During the test, temperature and lubricant quantities are considered and to investigate an influence of lubricant quantities, a comparison between optimally enough and not enough lubricant quantity was implemented.

Pressure and film thickness of contacting surfaces between teeth of the involute spur gear in lubricated condition were studied by a numerical method. Dynamics of the gear and pinion was considered to gel ail accurate initial clearance between gear teeth. The 3-dimensional non-steady elastohydrodanamic lubrication analysis on the gear teeth showed a slight higher pressure at the inlet region of the contacting face as well as pressure spike at the outlet region and a more thick film thickness than that of steady condition.

An elastohydrodynamic lubrication analysis was performed on the contacting teeth surfaces of involute spur gears. Kinematics of the gear and the pinion were taken into account to get accurate geometric clearances around the elastohydrodynamic lubrication region of the contacting teeth. Pressure and film thickness distribution for the whole contacting faces in lubricated condition at several time steps were obtained through the analysis. Besides the pressure spike at the outlet region, a representative phenomenon in elastohydrodynamic lubrication regime, the pressure at the inlet region was slightly higher than that of the center region. The film thickness of transient condition was thicker than that of steady condition.

In order to predict the noise of the spur gear system, a simplified model of spur system including the housing is studied. The spur gear is modeled as a single degree of freedom system. The shaft-housing system is modeled as a clamped circular plate connected with a beam. The moment components of the beam excited by the spur gear mesh force are considered in the calculation of plate vibration and radiated noise. The out-of-displacements of the clamped circular plate due to the r-direction moment and ${\theta}$-direction moment are calculated. Radiated noise from the plate in the air is also calculated using Rayleigh integral. Using the numerical example, the numerical validation of the analytical procedure on the noise prediction are given.

This study develops an automation system for metallic mold design that is applicable in forging non-axial symmetric parts. The metallic mold design program is used to design the metallic mold using two-dimensional axial symmetric metallic molds and to predict the stress concentration using finite element analyses. Then, the program redesigns the metallic mold using variables such as the optimal split diameter, maximum allowable inner pressure, fit tolerance, and stress distribution, which are calculated using the metallic mold design program. When the involute spur gear is forged, stress concentration occurs on the tooth root bounded at the symmetric surface. The SCM4 material is suitable for metallic molds because the stress is less than the yield strength of the insert and it acts on the tooth root regardless of the inner pressure. The metallic mold for forging non-axial symmetric parts can be designed through adjusting the magnitude of the contact pressure. The program developed in this study can be applied to metallic mold designs in involute spur gears of forging, which is an ordinary non-axial symmetric part.

Gear transmission system is widely applied in engineering. As the problem of contact fatigue, wear, lubrication failure etc, the condition of gear teeth contacts will be worse. The vibration and sound signals in the gear system will be affected by the some failures like scuffing, abrasive wear and spalling due to the deterioration of gear teeth surface. By studying the estimation of specific film thickness, measurement of reduction in tooth thickness, visual examination of wear mechanisms on the gear teeth and their effects on the statistical parameters of vibration and sound signals, the research obtained the satisfactory results on accessing the surface fatigue wear in a spur gear system. The paper utilizes the relationship between statistical parameters obtained from sound signals and Stribeck curve to confirm the hypothesis of dependency of surface fatigue wear, specific film thickness.

This paper deals with torque analysis of magnetic spur gear with radial magnetized permanent magnets based on analytical method. The analysis is implemented in three parts: First, on the basis of magnetic vector potential and a two-dimensional (2D) polar-coordinate system, the magnetic field solution due to permanent magnet of source gear are obtained. And by using derived magnetic field solutions, the analytical solutions for external magnetic field distribution which affects load gear are obtained. Second, by using coordinate conversion, external magnetic field which is on the primary coordinate system is converted to the secondary coordinate system. Finally, the load gear is reduced to equivalent current densities, and the torque is computed on these currents in the external field of the source magnet. These analytical results are validated by comparing with the 2-D finite element analysis (FEA).
