To analyze the edge contact of spiral bevel gears, owing to its effect on meshing performance, batch processing is performed based on a static solver and the finite element method (FEM) because of its computational speed advantage. A series of programs automatically perform the functions of modeling, analysis, and extraction of performance indexes. Starting from the entrance meshing position to the exit meshing position, a series of models was built and analyzed to describe the whole meshing process of the gear pair. For a specific gear pair, contact and bending stresses, contact stress patterns, loaded transmission errors, contact forces, and load sharing coefficients are calculated under five different load conditions and the change rules are summarized. Edge contact phenomenon occurs as the load increases to a critical value, resulting in a sharp increase in contact stress. As the load increases, the load sharing coefficient decreases gradually and the absolute value of transmission error increases, but the fluctuation of transmission error first decreases and then increases. In addition, the effect of modules is discussed and the results show that large modulus will decrease stress, contact ratio, and edge contact, but there is a certain module to minimize the fluctuation of transmission error.

This researchs object is determining  the effect of modifying center distance to bending stress and contact stress on the helical gear pair based on the finite element method. And to know the safety factor on each center distance variation within helical gear pair.Gear being analyzed is one of the gears on Honda motor cycles branded Beat. To know the specification of gear, the helical gear geometry measurements were taken. Based on the results of measurements was carried out models of helical gear pair by AUTO CAD software. Then,  bending stress and contact stress analysis with finite element method on  ANSYS 12.1. Optimal center distance of gear pairs is determined by safety factors on the quasi statatis condition.From the research results can be concluded that the change of center distance can affect the bending stress and contact stress on gears and affect of security design. A safe center distance variation is 52.65 mm, 52,75 mm, 52,85mm and 52.95 mm.

In this study an attempt is made to predict displacements and stresses in face-hobbed spiral bevel gears by using the finite element method. A displacement type finite element method is applied with curved, 20-node isoparametric elements. A method is developed for the automatic finite element discretization of the pinion and the gear. The full theory of the generation of tooth surfaces of face-hobbed spiral bevel gears is applied to determine the nodal point coordinates on tooth surfaces. The boundary conditions for the pinion and the gear are set automatically as well. A computer program was developed to implement the formulation provided above. By using this program the influence of design parameters and load position on tooth deflections and fillet stresses is investigated. On the basis of the results, obtained by performing a big number of computer runs, by using regression analysis and interpolation functions, equations for the calculation of tooth deflections and fillet stresses are derived.

A new finite element analysis for meshing gear pair has been developed with a new element called “tooth flank film element.” The new element is a phantom element put on a tooth flank without any thickness, and enables boundary conditions for a contact problem in meshing teeth to be easily dealt with. In the present paper, contact stresses between tooth flanks of mating gear pair calculated with the proposed finite element method are compared with stresses measured with pressure measurement films. As a result, the proposed method was confirmed to be useful for evaluation of contact stress.

The investigation analyzes effects of clearance size in revolute and spherical joints with clearance on rigid-flexible dynamic of a space slider crank mechanism by finite element method. The model of the mechanism was designed by Solidworks and then velocity, acceleration, displacement, stress and contact force were determined by finite element analysis of rigid-transient dynamic in ANSYS. The results simulation indicated that the clearance size in revolute and spherical with clearance has sightly effected on the velocity of the slider, but has significantly effected on acceleration, contact force as journal and ball impact into bearing and socket with high peaks of acceleration and contact force as presented in the graph of acceleration and contact forces. The graph outlined that journal and ball motion with three types: free light, contact and impact motion. Clearance size created deviation for the displacement of the slider from 4.29 mm to 9.87 mm and maximum principal stress increases from 8.4 MPa to 10 MPa when clearance size increases from 0 mm to 0.3 mm.
