A method for the determination of load and stress distributions along the contact lines of the instantaneously engaged teeth of spur and helical gears is represented in this paper. The calculation includes the tooth profile modifications and crownings, manufacturing and alignment errors of gears, tooth deflections, local contact deformations of teeth, gear body bending and torsion, and deflections of supporting shafts. The influence of gear parameters on load and stress distributions is discussed. On the basis of the obtained results, by regression analysis, equations are derived for the calculation of load and stress distribution factors.

Abstract The article presents influence of modification of the low-alloy cast steel G17CrMo5-5 by rare earth metals on stress distribution in front of the crack at the initial moment of the crack extension. Experimental studies include determination of strength and fracture toughness characteristics for unmodified (UM) and modified (M) cast steel. In the numerical computations, experimentally tested specimens SEN(B) were modelled. The true stress–strain curves for the UM and M cast steel are used in the calculation. The stress distributions in front of the crack were calculated at the initial moment of the crack extension. On the basis of data on the particle size inclusions in the UM and M cast steel, and the calculated stress distributions was performed an assessment of the possibility of the occurrence of cleavage fracture. The analysis results indicate that at room temperature for the UM cast steel, there is a possibility of cleavage fracture, while for the M cast steel occurrence of cleavage fracture is negligible.

A method for the simultaneous calculation of optimal tooth tip relief and tooth crowning for spur and helical gears is presented in this paper. The tooth profile modification is described by a linear function. Two types of crowning are introduced: linear and parabolic. The optimization of the tooth modifications is based on the following conditions: (1) The teeth are entering in mesh smoothly, without interference. (2) The load distribution factor is minimized. A computer program is developed for the calculation of the optimal tooth tip relief and crowning for spur and helical gears. By using this program the influence of type and length of optimal crowning and length of tooth tip relief on load distribution factor is investigated. Also, the influence of gear parameters on optimal tooth profile modification is discussed. On the basis of the obtained results, by regression analysis an equation is derived for the calculation of the optimal tooth tip relief.

Boussinesq-Papkovich potentials are used in conjunction with the bispherical co-ordinate system to analyze three problems in the classical theory of linear elasticity: (a) The extension of the Boussinesq point-load problem to that in which the half-space contains a spherical cavity; (b) the determination of the stress distribution in an eccentric spherical shell under uniform internal pressure; (c) the determination of the stress distribution in a half-space containing a uniformly pressurized spherical cavity. Numerical results are presented for representative configurations and load distributions in each case.

The plane problem of a crack that terminates perpendicularly to a bimaterial interface was re-examined both theoretically and experimentally. Using the complex variable method, the crack trip stress singularities and stress distributions were generalized. Digital photelastic technique was successfully employed to confirm the generalization of the theoretical analysis. The results showed that the so-called far-field effects indeed played a significant role in the stress distribution and determination of the stress intensity factor.

Abstract A general procedure for determining the envelope of the outline of planar rigid figures is presented which allows both local and finite undercutting to be taken into account. A suitable parametrization of the enveloped curves, together with the insertion of cusps wherever undercutting occurs, enables the procedure to be applied recursively while maintaining high accuracy in describing the resulting envelopes. The proposed procedure provides the basis for an original validation method regarding parallel-axis spur and helical gears. The method takes into account possible undercutting during hobbing or shaping, considers the desired amount of meshing clearance over the entire tooth profile, and is able to detect meshing interference. Further, it provides a criterion in choosing the proper cutter profile. A numerical example showing the application of the method is discussed at the end of the paper.

During dangerous circumstances, knowledge about population distribution is essential for urban infrastructure architecture, policy-making, and urban planning with the best Spatial-temporal resolution. The spatial-temporal modeling of the population distribution of the case study was investigated in the present study. In this regard, the number of generated trips and absorbed trips using the taxis pick-up and drop-off location data was calculated first, and the census population was then allocated to each neighborhood. Finally, the Spatial-temporal distribution of the population was calculated using the developed model. In order to evaluate the model, a regression analysis between the census population and the predicted population for the time period between 21:00 to 23:00 was used. Based on the calculation of the number of generated and the absorbed trips, it showed a different spatial distribution for different hours in one day. The spatial pattern of the population distribution during the day was different from the population distribution during the night. The coefficient of determination of the regression analysis for the model (R2) was 0.9998, and the mean squared error was 10.78. The regression analysis showed that the model works well for the nighttime population at the neighborhood level, so the proposed model will be suitable for the day time population.

Non-destructive determination of workpiece properties after heat treatment is of great interest in the context of quality control in production but also for prevention of damage in subsequent grinding process. Micromagnetic methods offer good possibilities, but must first be calibrated with reference analyses on known states. This work compares the accuracy and reliability of different calibration methods for non-destructive evaluation of carburizing depth and surface hardness of carburized steel. Linear regression analysis is used in comparison with new methods based on artificial neural networks. The comparison shows a slight advantage of neural network method and potential for further optimization of both approaches. The quality of the results can be influenced, among others, by the number of teaching steps for the neural network, whereas more teaching steps does not always lead to an improvement of accuracy for conditions not included in the initial calibration.

The difficulty of achieving good distal contact between a cementless hip endoprosthesis and the femur is well established. This finite element study investigates the effect on the stress distribution within the femur due to varying lengths of distal gap. Three-dimensional anatomical models of two different sized femurs were generated, based upon computer tomograph scans of two cadaveric specimens. A further six models were derived from each original model, with distal gaps varying from 10 to 60 mm in length. The resulting stress distributions within these were compared to the uniform contact models. The extent to which femoral geometry was an influencing factor on the stress distribution within the bone was also studied. Lack of distal contact with the prosthesis was found not to affect the proximal stress distribution within the femur, for distal gap lengths of up to 60 mm. In the region of no distal contact, the stress within the femur was at normal physiological levels associated with the applied loading and boundary conditions. The femoral geometry was found to have little influence on the stress distribution within the cortical bone. Although localized variations were noted, both femurs exhibited the same general stress distribution pattern.
