When designing certain artillery’s planetary transmission of fluid gearbox, it is hard to calculate by general design method, because the plant frame is abnormity three-dimensional entity, and the plants distortion affects the contact stress of joggled gear tooth. In this paper, by the APDL language programmer, the three-dimensional entity of certain artillery’s planetary transmission is established; the finite three-dimensional contact is analyzed by ANSYS; the plants distortion affects is discussed by the choice of the constant FTOLN and FKN, the influence is analyzed that the plant frame’s distortion to the stress of joggled gear wheels, as a result, the planet frame’s transmutation quantity is direct proportion with the gear wheel’s most joggled stress by ANSYS.

Noncircular bevel gear can achieve variable transmission between intersecting axes. Based on polar coordinates, a design method for noncircular bevel gears is presented. The geometric characteristic of tooth profiles of the gears can be obtained by means of geometry principles for spherical engagement and a pair of conjugated crown racks, which can engage with the driver noncircular bevel gear and driven one, respectively. A series of new conception such as tangent azimuth angle, concavity of conical surfaces, and module angle are proposed to describe spherical geometry relationship in meshing. Meanwhile, geometrical characters of the crown rack cutter are derived. Based on this cutter, the accurate mathematical model of noncircular bevel gear tooth profile is deduced, and the determinant criterion for undercutting is presented. As an example, the three-dimensional models of noncircular bevel gear pair are established to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method. A noncircular bevel gear set can be designed by this method if the special included angle for intersecting axes and transmission function ratio are given.

<p>A gear is a critical component and can be found in many industrial applications. This investigation develops a three dimensional finite element spur gear model to calculate the contact stress on the gear tooth surfaces. Contact stress is one of the main factors that is used to decide the gears tooth surface strength. In addition there are other important factors such as frictional forces and micro-pits that influence the gear tooth surface. Different analytical techniques have been used to calculate the contact stress of the gear surfaces namely; Hertzian theory and AGMA standards. The analytical results have been compared to the numerical analysis to verify the spur gear finite element model.</p>

Purpose This paper aims to improve the meshing effect of the gear teeth. It is recommended to analyze the deformation difference between the inner and outer surfaces of the flexspline. The purpose of this paper is to modify the profile of the flexspline based on the deformation difference to improve the transmission accuracy and operating life of the harmonic drive. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, ring theory is used to calculate the deformation difference of the inner and outer surfaces of the flexspline, and the actual tooth profile of the flexspline is corrected based on the deformation difference. Then, the flexspline is divided into multiple sections along the axial direction, so that the three-dimensional tooth profile of the flexspline is modified to improve the gear tooth meshing effect. Findings This paper proves the effect of the deformation difference between the inner and outer surfaces of the flexspline on the tooth backlash, which affects the transmission accuracy and life of the harmonic drive. It is recommended to modify the tooth profile of the flexspline based on the deformation difference, so as to ensure the tooth meshing effect. Originality/value This paper provides a new way for the optimization of the three-dimensional tooth profile design of the harmonic drive.

A thermomechanical coupling between a hyper-viscoelastic tire and a representative pavement layer was conducted to assess the effect of various temperature profiles on the mechanical behavior of a rolling truck tire. The two deformable bodies, namely the tire and pavement layer, were subjected to steady-state-uniform and non-uniform temperature profiles to identify the significance of considering temperature as a variable in contact-stress prediction. A myriad of ambient, internal air, and pavement-surface conditions were simulated, along with combinations of applied tire load, tire-inflation pressure, and traveling speed. Analogous to winter, the low temperature profiles induced a smaller tire-pavement contact area that resulted in stress localization. On the other hand, under high temperature conditions during the summer, higher tire deformation resulted in lower contact-stress magnitudes owing to an increase in the tire-pavement contact area. In both conditions, vertical and longitudinal contact stresses are impacted, while transverse contact stresses are relatively less affected. This behavior, however, may change under a non-free-rolling condition, such as braking, accelerating, and cornering. By incorporating temperature into the tire-pavement interaction model, changes in the magnitude and distribution of the three-dimensional contact stresses were manifested. This would have a direct implication on the rolling resistance and near-surface behavior of flexible pavements.

Reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings are a widely used structural system around the world. These buildings are customarily designed through standard code-based procedures, which are well-suited to the workflow of design offices. However, these procedures typically do not aim for or achieve seismic performance higher than code minimum objectives. This article proposes a practical design method that improves the seismic performance of bare RC frame buildings, using only information available from elastic structural analysis conducted in standard code-based design. Four buildings were designed using the proposed method and the prescriptive approach of design codes, and their seismic performance is evaluated using three-dimensional nonlinear (fiber) models. The findings show that the seismic performance is improved with the proposed method, with reductions in the collapse fragility, higher deformation capacity, and greater overstrength. Furthermore, an economic analysis for a six-story building shows that these improvements come with only a 2% increase in the material bill, suggesting that the proposed method is compatible with current project budgets as well as design workflow. The authors also provide mathematical justification of the method.

The development and application of a three-dimensional inverse methodology is presented for the design of turbomachinery blades. The method is based on the mass-averaged swirl, rV~θ distribution and computes the necessary blade changes directly from the discrepancies between the target and initial distributions. The flow solution and blade modification converge simultaneously giving the final blade geometry and the corresponding steady state flow solution. The flow analysis is performed using a cell-vertex finite volume time-marching algorithm employing the multistage Runge-Kutta integrator in conjunction with accelerating techniques (local time stepping and grid sequencing). To account for viscous effects, dissipative forces are included in the Euler solver using the log-law and mixing length models. The design method can be used with any existing solver solving the same flow equations without any modifications to the blade surface wall boundary condition. Validation of the method has been carried out using a transonic annular turbine nozzle and NASA rotor 67. Finally, the method is demonstrated on the re-design of the blades.
