Transient 3-dimensional elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) analysis is performed on the contacting teeth surfaces of involute spur gears. Kinematics of the gear and the pinion are taken into account to get accurate geometric clearance around the EHL region of the contacting teeth. The surface pressure and film thickness distribution for the whole contact faces in a lubricated condition at several time steps are obtained through the analysis. Besides the pressure spike at the outlet region, a representative phenomenon in EHL regime, the pressure at the inlet region is slightly higher than that of the center region. The film thickness of transient condition is thicker than that of steady condition.

The basic concept of 'tooth profile modification' is to change a part of the involute profile to reduce the load in that area and appropriate profile modifications can help gears to run quietly and resist scoring, pitting and tooth breakage. In this study, the modification of tooth profile to make a smooth transmission of the normal loads in spur gears has been developed. The modified tooth profile has been determined by the total deflection at contact points. We use the AGMA Standard to design basic gear profile, We also developed a gear design Program using tooth profile modification

Stress patterns are created in the plastic spur gear tooth body by introducing a hole or a steel pin to improve stress distribution. Static analysis using finite element method is carried out to show the effect. The result shows that maximum stress as well as tooth tip displacement is dependent on the size and location of a hole or a steel pin. When a hole located on the tooth center line, the maximum static stress level and the tooth tip deflection is always higher than that of a solid gear. But, a considerable reduction in the maximum stress and tooth tip displacement is achieved by insertion of steel pin.

This study proposed a technique for inverse problem, linear approximation of contact position and loading in single and double meshing of spur gear, using 2-dimension model considered near the tooth by root stress. Determine root stress is carried out for the gear tooth by finite element method and boundary element method. Boundary element discretization near contact point is carefully performed to keep high computational accuracy. And from those estimated results, the comparing estimate value with boundary element method value was discussed.

It is very important to have exact informations on the properties and characteristics of the sintering material as a new material of machine elements. To study the sintering spur gear and the sintering specimen to be consisted of Fe-Cu-C, the constant stress amplitude fatigue test is performed by using an electrohydrolic survo-controlled pulsating tester. Consequently, the S-N curves are obtained and the fatigue strength is compared with flaw depth. Accordingly, this study presents the fatigue strength of sintering spur gears, the critical notch depth of sintering materials and the effects of flaw depth on the bending fatigue strength.

The conventional closed-die forgings had been applied to the forging of spur gears. But the forgings require high forging-pressure. In this paper, new precision forging technology have been developed. The developed technology is two steps forging process. Good shaped products are forged successfully with lower forging-pressure than those of conventional forging

This study focuses on a detailed ball-bearing model for spur gears. The nonlinear ball-bearing stiffness with radial clearance is derived and calculated. The bearing stiffness is used to the 3-degree-of-freedom (DOF) spur gear system model. The mode characteristics of the gear system model are analyzed and verified by performing finite-element analysis (FEA). From the results, the bearing stiffness on the radial clearance was more sensitive under low-load conditions compared to high-load conditions. The bearing stiffness significantly affected the gear dynamics in the low-frequency region, while the mesh stiffness affected the high natural frequency.

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).

The gear that is used in various mechanical components occurs easily damages due to the repeated torque and the high oil temperature. The main failure mode of the gear is the surface deterioration with the tooth surface fatigue. Therefore, the life evaluation and the failure analysis of the gear were very important since it may cause fatal damage of entire gear box system. In this paper, the failure mechanism and the life of the gear were evaluated using the durability analysis simulator such as MSC.FATIGUE. Moreover, the reliability analysis model of the spur gear with the accelerated life testing technique was proposed.
