This book is the fourth volume in the series devoted to gear engineering and computer-aided design, production, testing and education. It comprises fundamental and applied research contributions by scientists and gear experts from all the world and covers recent developments and historical achievements in various spheres of mechanical engineering related to different kinds of gears, transmissions, and drive systems. It gathers contributions describing the advanced approaches to research, design, testing and production of practically all common and new kinds of gears for a vast number of advanced applications. Special attention is paid to issues of higher education in the field of gears. The book is intended as a tribute to professor Veniamin Goldfarb (1941-2019), one of the world-known leaders in the field of gear research, education and production, who contributed much to the active international cooperation of gear experts and to promotion of MMS science. The introductory chapter of this book relates his research to major developments in the field of mechanisms and machine science and outlines important contributions that he made within the period of 1964-2019.

This classic reference is a compilation of a series of gear-designing charts illustrating by simple diagrams and examples the solutions of practical problems relating to spur gears, straight-tooth bevel gears, spiral-bevel gears, helical gears for parallel shaft drives, helical (spiral) gears for angular drives, herringbone gears, and worm gears. Features Contains a series of simply diagrammed gear-designing charts, illustrating solutions to practical problems. Presents all of the rules, formulas, and examples applying to all types of gears. Aids design engineers and manufacturers involved in the production of gears.

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 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.

This book was written by a team of leading gear experts from across the globe, including contributions from USA, Germany, Poland, China, Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. It provides readers with the latest accomplishments in the gear theory and gear cutting tool design. Specialists can apply competencies gained from this book to quality control in gear manufacture, as well as to the conditions of their production. The book begins with a detailed discussion of the kinematics and geometry of geometrically-accurate gears and gear systems. This is followed by an analysis of state-of-the-art gear manufacturing methods with focus on gear finishing operations. Novel designs of gear transmission systems as well as gear theory and gear cutting tool design are also covered.

All of the critical technical aspects of gear materials technology are addressed in this new reference work. Gear Materials, Properties, and Manufacture is intended for gear metallurgists and materials specialists, manufacturing engineers, lubrication technologists, and analysts concerned with gear failures who seek a better understanding of gear performance and gear life. This volume complements other gear texts that emphasize the design, geometry, and theory of gears. The coverage begins with an overview of the various types of gears used, important gear terminology, applied stresses and strength requirements associated with gears, and lubrication and wear. This is followed by in-depth treatment of metallic (ferrous and nonferrous alloys) and plastic gear materials. Emphasis is on the properties of carburized steels, the material of choice for high-performance power transmission gearing.
