Abstract: Surface hardness and hardening depth are the most important influence factors for the load capacity of surface hardened gears. Besides the structure of the hardening pattern, it’s carbon content, ...

Abstract: The formulae of classical hydrodynamics are not suitable for the calculation of load capacity and power loss of worm gear drives. Thus a theoretical basis had to be developed for the comparison ...

Abstract: Notches at the tooth root fillet can be caused by shaving or grinding. The influence of different notches at the root fillet on the endurance strength of case hardened spur gears was ...

Abstract: A measuring method for determining the tooth root stresses of spiral bevel gears is presented. Some basic results referring to amount, distribution, and direction of root stresses are discussed. ...

Abstract: With miniature strain gauges having a 0.6 mm gauge length, the strains were measured that occurred at various places in the fillet of spur gears (modulus: m = 10 mm). With this method, gears ...
