The basic properties of gears must be considered: the shape of their gearing, their load capacity, and the meshing stiffness, which affects the noise and vibration. When designing large gears, it is important to choose the correct shape of the gear body. Large gears used in marine gearboxes must be designed with as little weight as possible. The requirements of sufficient stiffness of the gear wheel body, as well as the meshing stiffness, must be met. This paper is devoted to the influence of spur gear wheel body parameters on gearing deformation and meshing stiffness. The stiffness of the gear is solved on the basis of the deformation of the gearing teeth, which is determined by the finite element method. Examples of the simulation and subsequent processing of results demonstrates how the individual parameters of the gear wheel body influence the stiffness of the gearing teeth. At the same time, the results point to designs of suitable shape and dimensions to achieve the required stiffness of the gearing teeth, but with the lowest possible weight of the spur gear wheel body.

A numerical study of gas herringbone grooved journal bearings is presented for small number of grooves. The compressible Reynolds equation is solved by use of the Finite Element Method. The nonlinearity of the discretized equations is treated with the Newton-Raphson procedure. A comparison of the results for a smooth bearing with previously published results is made and the domain of validity of the Narrow Groove Theory is analyzed. Load capacity, attitude angle, and stiffness coefficients are given for various configurations: groove angle and thickness of grooves, bearing number, and that for both smooth and grooved member rotating.

Conventional drive wheel strength check is based on Hertz line contact theory to do the calculation, for security reasons, the design is more conservative,so that there is a certain margin in carrying capacity of the wheel. To address the above issues, this paper analyzes the wheel contact problem for a precise non-linear contact by the finite element method. By comparison of two methods, it verifies that using the finite element is reasonable to deal with these issues, while it provides a reference for the rational design of full load capacity wheels as well.

The effect of tenon length and tenon width on withdrawal load capacity of mortise and tenon (M-T) joint was studied based on the finite element method (FEM), and the relationship of withdrawal load capacity relating to tenon length and tenon width was regressed using response surface method. The results showed that the tenon length and tenon width had remarkable effects on withdrawal load capacity of M-T joint T-shaped sample. The effect of tenon length on withdrawal load capacity was greater than tenon width. The regression equation used to predict the withdrawal load capacity was capable of optimizing the tenon sizes of M-T joint with R-square of 0.926. Using FEM can get more knowledge of M-T joint visually, and reduce the costs of materials and time of experiments.

Using the finite element method, influences of chordal tooth thickness at the critical section of tooth, radius of curvature of fillet, rim thickness, and supporting condition of a thin-rimmed spur gear on the tooth fillet and root stresses are investigated. Summing up a lot of FEM calculated results, a set of approximate formulae is derived for the calculation of tooth fillet and root stresses of a thin-rimmed spur gear. A comparison between the FEM calculated stress values and the values from these approximation formulae has shown good agreement.

This research investigates the effects of the nominal load value on load distribution of simultaneously meshing gear teeth pairs, and on the involute gear load capacity. The research results presented in this article confirm that the nominal load value has a significant influence on the gear load capacity calculations. However, this influence is generally neglected in standard gear calculations, which can result in oversized gear dimensions. This can lead to inadequate gear designs in practice due to increased demand for reduced gear size and weight in modern machinery. The article provides a detailed description of the iterative numerical method developed in this research to support the modelling and analysis of load distribution in meshed gears using the finite-element method.

The load capacity of EMBs with a restricted air gap is usually small in comparison with that of traditional ball bearings. One possible way to overcome this limitation is to increase the operation field strength of EMBs; however, this approach unavoidably involves nonlinear characteristics of EMBs. This paper investigates the nonlinear behavior of two commonly used types of EMBs by using the finite element method, in which the nonlinear relation of the B-H curve, the flux leakage, and the fringing effect are taken into account. The behavior of the EMBs under different bias currents and gap lengths is investigated, as are the effects of geometric parameters on the bearing characteristics. The results of the paper provide a useful guide for designing EMBs when using their nonlinear characteristics.

The dynamic bearing coefficients are obtained from a solution to the variational equivalent of Reynolds equation. A perturbation method is applied to find the individual dynamic coefficients. The Finite Element Method is used in the numerical evaluation of the equations. The flow is assumed to be laminar, the lubricant is Newtonian. Allowance is made for viscosity-temperature dependency in circumferential and axial directions.

This paper aims at an evaluation of the stresses induced by a static load applied to gear teeth. For spur gears of different ratios with 20-deg pressure angle and standard addendum proportions, the stresses and deflections are computed by the finite element method. Formulas are drawn allowing a simple calculation of the maximum stresses, and the results are compared with what is given by ISO and AGMA standards related to the strength of gear teeth.
