Description
Summary:The concept of design space formed with module and pinion number of teeth has been utilized in establishing an optimized design of a spur gear mesh and studying the dominating mode of failure under such condition. An attempt has been made in the present work for critically studying the behaviour of mode of failure for a large range of parameter variations for 20 commonly used gear materials for both 20° and 25° pressure angle, full depth spur gears. Minimum centre distance has been chosen as the optimization objective function and an in-depth study of bending, pitting and scoring mode of failures has been attempted.
