ABSTRACT Transmission error is a measure of the positioning accuracy of a gear system. This has been widely documented in gearing for many years as the source of problems in noise and vibration. It is a result of errors in the contact conditions which affect the driven gear with respect to the rotation of the […]

R. W. Furrow* and H. H. Mabie~ Received 18 August 1969 Abstract This paper gives the results of static deflection tests on spur gear teeth made of acrylic. Also, a method is given for determining the dimensions of a tapered cantilever beam to replace the actual gear tooth in deflection analysis as proposed by Timoshenko […]
