Gear pairs effectively transmit power and movement over short distances. Their design is
well-defined in the technical literature, including standards and handbooks. However, the …

An original application of Genetic Algorithms (GAs) is developed in order to optimize spur
gear pairs toward vibration and noise reduction. The approach takes into account the most …

This paper presents a global optimization method focused on gear vibration reduction by
means of profile modifications. A nonlinear dynamic model is used to study the vibration …

In this study, the effects of the gear tooth addendum and dedendum on the optimization
results for gear macro geometry design were evaluated. First, gear optimization using macro …

Some theoretical results on mesh elasticity and contact patterns in narrow-faced spur and
helical gears are presented, which lead to original semi-analytical definitions of optimum …

Associated vibrations in mechanical power transmission elements such as gears and
bearings significantly contribute to the dynamic behavior of the system to which they belong …

Agricultural tractors generate various noise sources, such as the engine, transmission, and
hydraulic systems. In particular, tractors generate considerable transmission gear whine …

Gear size is one of the most important criteria in design optimization of gear set used in
automotive, aeronautical and various other applications. Smaller gear size results in …

Some original analytical developments and results on the formulation of transmission error
in solid spur and helical gears are presented, which lead to closed-form formulae defining …

High precision and minimal noise are considered critical performance measures for top-tier
gear transmission systems. To ensure optimum gear trans mission performance, the tooth …
