This paper presents design and torque analysis in various types of magnetic gear with different magnetic materials and air gap. This type of gear offer both high speed and high torque required for drive applications. In the proposed gear analysis the low speed side is connected to prime mover and high speed side is connected to load, suitable for wind power, automobile applications and group dr...

A dynamic analysis method is firstly presented to make up the present methods for calculating the strength of the cylindrical gear pair. The transient stress distribution and variation in the process of gear meshing can be obtained by dynamic simulation, the maximum bending stress, the maximum tooth contact stress and the corresponding worst meshing locations of the gear pair can be also accura...

Results are presented from a new algorithm developed for separating the vibration signals from a planetary gear system into separate signals attributable to each planet gear. From the separate signals, time synchronous average signals are produced for each planet gear and for the sun gear meshing with each planet gear. Assessments of the individual planet and sun gears can be made from these ne...

The design of drives for high accelerating loads becomes very simple and clear with the fact that the torque– acceleration product is transmitted unchanged by an ideal gear, just like in the case of the torque–speed product (i.e., mechanical power). With this knowledge, it is easy to determine the required rated power and power rate a motor must possess for driving a given load with the specifi...

Gear contact surface wear is one of the important failure modes in gear systems. The procedure implemented in this work includes finite element multi pair contact modeling to predict the load sharing between the simultaneously contacting pairs and mathematical programming method to estimate the gear surface wear in high contact ratio gear drives for particular number of cycles. A method to find...

Damage progression tests were performed in the NASA Glenn Spiral Bevel Gear Fatigue Rig. Six gear sets with varying levels of tooth damage were tested, and vibration-based gear condition indicators, amount of debris generated, and oil temperatures were measured. The damage state was documented with photographs taken at inspection intervals throughout the test and was quantified with a numerical...

The present study examined whether school-age children show risk compensation and engage in greater risk taking when wearing safety gear compared to when not doing so when running an obstacle course containing hazards that could lead to physical injury. Because sensation seeking has been shown to influence risk taking, this child attribute was also assessed and related to risk compensation. Chi...

Targeting an accurate and realistic simulation of the gear hobbing process, we present an effective and factual approximation based on three-dimensional computer-aided design. Hobbing kinematics is directly applied in one gear gap. Each generating position formulates a spatial surface path which bounds its penetrating volume into the workpiece. The three-dimensional surface paths generated from...

To ensure the gear precision, industries need a coherent model to express, to analyse and to check geometrical specifications. Most gear tolerance representations are directly driven by the convenience of dimensional metrology and not by the convenience of the set of activities of the tolerancing process. Therefore, to ensure the coherence of all tolerancing process activities, there is a neces...

The condition monitoring data of gears is asymmetric distributed, moreover, sampling is usually conducted discontinuously in practice. Thus makes it difficult to predict gear remaining useful life accurately considering the two reasons above. In this paper, a fusion method is proposed using Elman Neural Network to modify residual series of grey model since Elman Neural Network performs better o...
