Purpose The aim of this paper is to study the effect of pressure angle and helix angle on bending stress at the root of helical gear tooth under dynamic state. Gear design is a highly complex process. The consistent demand to build low-cost, quieter and efficient machinery has resulted in a gradual change in gear design. Gear parameters such as pressure angle, helix angle, etc. affect the load-carrying capacity of gear teeth. Adequate load-carrying capacity of a gear is a prime requirement. The failure at the critical section because of bending stress is an unavoidable phenomenon. Besides this fact, the extent of these failures can be reduced by a proper gear design. The stresses produced under dynamic loading conditions in machine member differ considerably from those produced under static loading. Design/methodology/approach The present work is intended to study the effect of pressure angle and helix angle on the bending stress at the root of helical gear tooth under dynamic state. The photostress method has been used as experimental methods. Theoretical analysis was carried out by velocity factor method and Spott’s equation. LS DYNA has been used for finite element (FE) analysis. Findings The results show that experimental method gives a bending stress value that is closer to the true value, and bending stress varies with pressure angle and helix angle. The photostress technique gives clear knowledge of stress pattern at root of tooth. Originality/value The outcomes of this work help the designer use optimum weight-to-torque ratio of gear; this is ultimately going to reduce the total bulk of the gear box.

The paper presents the results of an experimental investigation carried out at Mansoura University Laboratories aiming at studying the effect of change of speed, oil viscosity, and helix angle on the load carrying capacity of the oil film. A three pairs of test gears of 6 DP, 91.5 mm pitch diameter with 22.3, 33.6 and 42.25 deg helix angles were run in power circulating test rig at 100 to 3000 r.p.m. speeds and transmitting tooth load ranging from 185 to 1090 Kp. The test gears were lubricated with oils of 200, 462, and 653 cSt at 40°C kinematic viscosities. The oil film thicknesses between contacting teeth were measured by measuring the changes in capacitance between test gears and transferred to linear dimensions by calibration curves drawn by knowing the changes in capacitance through the gaps between teeth of values known through the amount of backlash. The experimental results show that; Oil film thickness decreases with tooth load, while increases with speed and viscosity of the lubricant. Oil film thickness versus helix angle give an inversed parabola for the smallest and medium tooth loads, while oil film thickness decreases with increasing the helix angle under increased tooth loads. Load carrying capacity increases with speeds and viscosity of the lubricant while decreases with increasing the helix angle.

Conformity Factor

Conformity factor, which is more rationally defined as the ratio of the area of contact to the active area of the flank of the mating teeth, is theoretically evaluated for Wildhaber-Novikov circular-arc gears, using Hertz’s theory of contact stress, without neglecting the effect of the difference in the profile radii of the pinion and wheel teeth, which is an important factor in fully-hardened gears. The variation of the conformity factor with the helix angle, pressure angle, ratio of the profile radii, module and the number of teeth follows closely the variation of load-carrying capacity per unit face-width of these gears and hence, from this study it is concluded that conformity factor is a more rational index on which the selection of the profile and material parameters should be based. This study of the conformity factor, for the particular profile geometry, indicates 7.5 to 15.0 deg as the suitable helix-angle range for achieving maximum load-carrying capacity per unit face-width.

Authors of article analysed influence of variability of yield strength over cross-section of hot rolled steel member to its load-carrying capacity. In calculation models, the yield strength is usually taken as constant. But yield strength of a steel hot-rolled beam is generally a random quantity. Not only the whole beam but also its parts have slightly different material characteristics. According to the results of more accurate measurements, the statistical characteristics of the material taken from various cross-section points (e.g. from a web and a flange) are, however, more or less different. This variation is described by one dimensional random field. The load-carrying capacity of the beam IPE300 under bending moment at its ends with the lateral buckling influence included is analysed, nondimensional slenderness according to EC3 is λ¯ = 0.6. For this relatively low slender beam the influence of the yield strength on the load-carrying capacity is large. Also the influence of all the other imperfections as accurately as possible, the load-carrying capacity was determined by geometrically and materially nonlinear solution of very accurate FEM model by the ANSYS programme.

The load-carrying capacity of the member with imperfections under axial compression is analysed in the present paper. The study is divided into two parts: (i) in the first one, the input parameters are considered to be random numbers (with distribution of probability functions obtained from experimental results and/or tolerance standard), while (ii) in the other one, the input parameters are considered to be fuzzy numbers (with membership functions). The load-carrying capacity was calculated by geometrical nonlinear solution of a beam by means of the finite element method. In the case (ii), the membership function was determined by applying the fuzzy sets, whereas in the case (i), the distribution probability function of load-carrying capacity was determined. For (i) stochastic solution, the numerical simulation Monte Carlo method was applied, whereas for (ii) fuzzy solution, the method of the so-called α cuts was applied. The design load-carrying capacity was determined according to the EC3 and EN1990 standards. The results of the fuzzy, stochastic and deterministic analyses are compared in the concluding part of the paper.

New Generation

Abstract The objective of this study was to quantify pavement damage due to a conventional (385/65R22.5) and a new generation of wide-base (445/50R22.5) tires using three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) analysis. The investigated new generation of wide-base tires has wider treads and greater load-carrying capacity than the conventional wide-base tire. In addition, the contact patch is less sensitive to loading and is especially designed to operate at 690kPa inflation pressure at 121km/hr speed for full load of 151kN tandem axle. The developed FE models simulated the tread sizes and applicable contact pressure for each tread and utilized laboratory-measured pavement material properties. In addition, the models were calibrated and properly validated using field-measured stresses and strains. Comparison was established between the two wide-base tire types and the dual-tire assembly. Results indicated that the 445/50R22.5 wide-base tire would cause more fatigue damage, approximately the same rutting damage and less surface-initiated top-down cracking than the conventional dual-tire assembly. On the other hand, the conventional 385/65R22.5 wide-base tire, which was introduced more than two decades ago, caused the most damage.
