Build resilience by monetizing value
Unforeseen disruptions, market fluctuations, and macroeconomic issues. The last year alone has exposed the unpredictable nature of the market and […]
Lubrication and its role in gear-failure analysis
When gears fail, it is most often due to fatigue and overloading. The most common form of distress and failure […]
Multi-sensor metrology advances
Demand for accurate gears delivered on tight schedules is increasing. To keep pace, technology is continually advancing, enabling manufacturers to […]
Finding the ideal materials for gears
When designing an individual gear or a gear train, the choice of material will either be the primary factor on […]
Nonlinear dynamic characteristic analysis of a coated gear transmission system
Coatings can significantly improve the load-carrying performance of a gear surface, but how they affect the vibration characteristic of the […]
Optimization of rack and pinion for offshore jack-up applications
Liftboats or jack-up oil rigs are essential for the oil and gas industry. The subsystem (rack, pinion, gearbox, and brake) […]
Root cause for noise excitation in geometrically-accurate (perfect) parallel-axes gearing
Gears are extensively used to transmit a rotation from a driving shaft to a driven shaft. Depending on the gear […]
Application of Finite Element Analysis for the Strain Wave Gear Tooth Surfaces Design and Modification
This paper represents the application of finite element analysis for the strain wave gear with modified conjugate tooth surfaces. The […]
