This paper describes how a computerized simulation model was utilized to evaluate initially the design and later the performance of the new Steel Fabrication Shop of the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company. Included are descriptions of the model and its development, the shop, and exhibits which are illustrative of model output.
The authors have developed the analytical geometry of face-gear drives, proposed the method for localization of bearing contact, developed computerized simulation of meshing and bearing contact, investigated the influence of gear misalignment on the shift of bearing contact and transmission errors. Application for design is discussed. The obtained results are illustrated with numerical examples.
