Abstract: | ABSTRACT An analytical computer simulation procedure for dynamic modeling of low-contact-ratio spur gear systems is presented. The procedure computes the gear static transmission error and uses a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to generate its frequency spectrum at various tooth profile modifications. The dynamic loading response of an unmodified (perfect involut) gear pair is compared with that of gears with profile modifications. Correlations are found between several profile modifications and the resulting dynamic loads. An effective error, obtained from frequency domain anal |
