This is the third book in a series devoted to gear design and production. Comprising papers by scientists and gear experts from around the globe, it covers recent developments in practically all spheres of mechanical engineering related to gears and transmissions. It describes advanced approaches to research, design, testing and production of various kinds of gears for a vast range of applications, with a particular focuses on advanced computer-aided approaches for gear analysis, simulation and design, the application of new materials and tribological issues.

This book covers recent developments in practically all spheres of mechanical engineering related to different kinds of gears and transmissions. Topics treated range from fundamental research to the advanced applications of gears in various practical fields, prospects of manufacturing development, results and trends of numerical and experimental research of gears, new approaches to gear design and aspects of their optimization synthesis.

For more than 30 years the book Practical Gear Design, later re-titled Handbook of Practical Gear Design, has been the leading engineering guide and reference on the subject. It is now available again in its most recent edition. The book is a detailed, practical guide and reference to gear technology. The design of all types of gears is covered, from those for small mechanisms to large industrial applications. The presentation is designed for easy reference for those involved in practical gear design, manufacture, applications and problem solving. The text is well illustrated with clear diagrams and photographs. The many tables provide needed reference data in convenient form.

This new edition provides extensive information to designers on various aspects of gears and gearing systems. Very comprehensive in its coverage, the handbook contains enough tables, illustrative examples and diagrams to enable designers arrive at quick solutions for their problems. The handbook is based on ISO specifications and is a unique blend of practical as well as the theoretical aspects of gear designs. The new edition includes more on spiral bevel gears, arcoid gears, klingelnberg, and gleason systems and gear tooth checking.
