Abstract: The dynamic stability of an elastically supported finite rigid plate centered in a straight narrow channel with incompressible flow on both sides of the plate and an upstream barrier preventing ...

Abstract: The traditional one-component transmission error of parallel-axis helical gears is generalized to a three-component transmission error which characterizes the composite displacement in the plane-of-contact ...

Abstract: Methods are developed for analytically reconstructing the absolute geometric deviations of the running surfaces of all teeth on a gear or pinion from perfect equispaced involute surfaces. Two ...

Abstract: The vibratory excitation arising from a gear pair is widely recognized to be a consequence of the nonuniform transmission of motion by the gear pair. In the preceding paper in this issue, ...

Abstract: The traditional definition of the transmission error of parallel-axis gear pairs is reviewed and shown to be unsuitable for characterizing the deviation from conjugate action of bevel gear pairs ...

Abstract: A method is developed for analytically reconstructing the geometric deviations of the running surface of a gear tooth from a perfect involute surface. The method uses standard profile and lead ...

Abstract: For a given set of forces transmitted by the gears, each of the three components of the generalized transmission error of spiral bevel gears is shown to be stationary with respect to small ...

Abstract: For straight or spiral bevel gears of nominal spherical involute design, the resultant total force vector transmitted by the gear mesh, in the absence of friction, lies in the plane of tooth ...
