Abstract Metaheuristic optimization algorithms have gained relevance and have effectively been investigated for solving complex real design problems in diverse fields of science and engineering. In this paper, a recent meta-heuristic approach inspired by human social concepts, namely the queuing search algorithm (QSA), is implemented for the first time to optimize the main parameters of the spur gear, in particular, to minimize the weight of a single-stage spur gear. The effectiveness of the algorithm introduced is examined in two steps. First, the algorithm used is compared with descriptions in previous studies and indicates that the final results obtained by QSA lead to a reduction in gear weight by 7.5 %. Furthermore, the outcomes obtained are compared with those for the other five algorithms. The results reveal that the QSA outperforms the techniques with which it is compared such as the sine-cosine optimization algorithm, the ant lion optimization algorithm, the interior search algorithm, the teaching-learning-based algorithm, and the jaya algorithm in terms of robustness, success rate, and convergence capability.

Abstract The use of discrete variables in optimal design models offers the opportunity to deal rigorously with an expanded variety of design situations, as opposed to using only continuous variables. However, complexity and solution difficulty increase dramatically and model formulation becomes very important. A particular problem arising from the design of a gear train employing four spur gear pairs is introduced and formulated in several different ways. An interesting aspect of the problem is its exhibition of three different types of discreteness. The problem could serve as a test for a variety of optimization or artificial intellegence techniques. The best known solution is included in this article, while its derivation is given in a sequel article.

Taking the compound gear trains as an example, the principle of the transmission mechanism was analyzed, and the rotational speed of the key gears in the compound gear trains was calculated by using the calculation formula of transmission ratio to obtain the simulation parameters of UG movement. The gear tool box in UG was applied to complete the modeling and meshing assembly of the bevel gear and spur gear, the rotation pair and gear pair was to motion simulation, the gear transmission state could have visually observed by motion simulation, and then the chart was analyzed to verify the design rationality of the gear train.

Based on Tooth Contact Analysis (TCA), a feasible approach for Transmission Error (TE) of planetary gear train is proposed in this paper. With a view to getting the total TE curve of the planetary gear train, a specific analysis of the TE from the planetary gear train with only one planet should be proceed firstly, the second step is to calculate each phase difference of planets in the gear train. The applicable conditions for the simplified calculation are spur gear or involute gear pairs in the gear train. Due to equal space between them, planets have the same phase angle.
