In this study that spur gears are chosen, contact stress of spur gear is presented under the effect of rotational speed. Three-dimensional simulation of dynamic analysis of gears designed and modeled using ANSYS software. The dynamic analysis included in the determination of dynamic stresses analysis. Contact stress is theoretically calculated and analyzed and numerically estimated using both Hertzian mathematical model and finite element method respectively. Different values of rotational speed used to study its effect on contact stress. Both methods compared by evaluating the percentage error of contact stress, and the modeling of the spur gear and stress analysis of spur gear carried out using SOLID WORK and ANSYS V14, respectively. The most significant note in this study concludes that increasing speed causes vibration and pitting failure due to repetitions.

Spur gear is used to transfer rotary motion between parallel shafts. The simplicity in its design is one of the advantages of the spur gear. However higher frictional force that is accumulated on the gear teeth will influence the spur gear performance. Many previous papers elaborated extensively on the contact stress in the spur gear but few of them gave the details on how friction affects the gear teeth. There are insufficient frictional effect data in the gear and thus should be regarded as an important research parameter. In this paper, the contact stress of spur gear has been evaluated with and without friction by employing the Hertz theory, AGMA standard and finite element method (FEM). The frictionless contact stress result has been validated with both the theoretical methods with minimum deviation. Frictional coefficient range of 0.0 to 0.3 was selected and the corresponding contact stress is directly proportional to the friction coefficient. The work also involves the variation of face width of the gear set under the influence of friction. The contact stress of spur gear was found to be inversely proportional to the face width.

The present paper describes a stress analysis of a face gear tooth subject to a distributed load. The distributed load was determined from an initial mismatch between meshing tooth flanks through geometrical analysis. A new global local finite element method was used for the analysis. In the global local finite element method, an analytical domain is divided into two parts; a global domain in which fields are defined by an analytical solution derived from a classical elastic theory, and a local domain in which fields defined by a finite element solution. Furthermore, tooth flank film elements, which enable boundary conditions on tooth flanks to be easily represented, are taken as the global domain. The calculations were performed for face gear pairs with various misalignments. Crowning modifications along lead were given to pinions, and the effect of the modifications on tooth stress distribution in a face gear tooth was discussed. As a result, both contact and bending stresses were not so large. When there are some misalignments, only contact stress increased. However, the crowning on a pinion tooth was effective for the reduction of the contact stress. Furthermore, face gear with linear profiles; i.e., approximated profiles, were also discussed. Then, it was confirmed that this profile is good approximation.
