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.

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.

In this paper, a model has been developed for calculating the Hertzian stress distribution of straight bevel gear. One pair of straight bevel gear teeth replaced with multiple pairs of spur gear teeth by using Tredgold approximation. The transmitted load and radii of curvature are evaluated and used to determine the stress distribution. The results show that these stresses are constant along the face width of tooth. Moreover, the magnitude of theses stresses are in good agreement with the simulation results using commercial ABAQUS software

The cell-based smoothed finite element method (CS-FEM) using the original three-node Mindlin plate element (MIN3) has recently established competitive advantages for analysis of solid mechanics problems. The three-node configuration of the MIN3 is achieved from the initial, complete quadratic deflection via ‘continuous’ shear edge constraints. In this paper, the proposed CS-FEM-MIN3 is firstly combined with the face-based smoothed finite element method (FS-FEM) to extend the range of application to analyze acoustic fluid–structure interaction problems. As both the CS-FEM and FS-FEM are based on the linear equations, the coupled method is only effective for linear problems. The cell-based smoothed operations are implemented over the two-dimensional (2D) structure domain discretized by triangular elements, while the face-based operations are implemented over the three-dimensional (3D) fluid domain discretized by tetrahedral elements. The gradient smoothing technique can properly soften the stiffness which is overly stiff in the standard FEM model. As a result, the solution accuracy of the coupled system can be significantly improved. Several superior properties of the coupled CS-FEM-MIN3/FS-FEM model are illustrated through a number of numerical examples.
