“…Significant performance enhancements were observed for the GFR POM gears, with an increase of around 50% in load carrying capacity when compared to the non-reinforced POM gears. Catera et al (2020) developed multiple joining technologies for steel and carbon fibre reinforced polymer materials in a hybrid gear. They observed that the interference fitting technology allows to achieve a higher stiffness, while the adhesive bonding is characterized by an increased energy dissipation capacity.…”

Gears are the components that have been used for a century to transmit power from one place to another place. Symmetric spur gears are commonly used in the gearbox to transmit power between two parallel shafts. In order to increase the load carrying capacity of the spur gear with reduced noise and vibration, its profile can be modified. This can be achieved by changing the gear tooth design into asymmetric form. Asymmetrically toothed gears are used in power transmission for transmitting the power in one direction. These teeth help to improve the load carrying and power transmitting capacity of the gear. The strength can be further increased by changing the material used in gears. This can be made possible by using Metal Matrix Composite as a gear material. The metal matrix composites have high stiffness and strength to weight ratio compared to the Alloy Steel. The main objective of this project is to increase the load carrying capacity of the spur gear by using WC-Fe metal matrix composite material. The symmetric and asymmetric gear modeling has been done for existing car gear (Maruthi 800) using Ansys parametric design language software. The contact stress, bending stress and von Mises stress of the composite, as well as conventional gear material, is analyzed and the results are compared to find the percentage increase in strength of the gear.

“…Besides the well consolidated approach based on exploiting the dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) [19][20][21], the feasibility of assessing the damping properties through vibration analysis has been recently demonstrated [22][23][24]. V. Anes et al [22] investigated the torsional and axial damping properties of a bar-extruded AZ31B-F magnesium alloy, considering both hysteretic and viscous damping with stress-strain-controlled tests and free vibration analyses.…”

Composite materials are widely used for their peculiar combination of excellent structural, mechanical, and damping properties. This work presents an experimental study on the dissipation properties of disk-shaped composite specimens exploiting vibration tests. Two different polymer matrix composites with the same number of identical laminae, but characterized by different stacking sequences, namely unidirectional and quasi-isotropic configurations, have been evaluated. An ad-hoc steel structure was designed and developed to reproduce an in-plane torsional excitation on the specimen. The main idea of the proposed approach relies on deriving the damping properties of the disks by focusing on the modal damping of the overall vibrating structure and, in particular, using just the first in-plane torsional deformation mode. Experimental torsional damping evaluations were conducted by performing vibrational hammer excitation on the presented setup. Two methods were proposed and compared, both relying on a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) approximation of the measured frequency response function (FRF).

In this study, the effect of rim thickness of hybrid gears on the root stress, joint stress, tooth stiffness, natural frequency, and dynamic behavior are examined numerically. Hybrid gears consist of two materials, which are steel for the teeth-rim and hub regions of gear, carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) for the web region. Adhesive bonding is assumed for the joining of steel and composite materials. FE method is used to evaluate tooth root stress, joint stress, tooth deformation, and the natural frequency of hybrid gears. The adhesive is defined by cohesive zone modeling (CZM). Moreover, 2-DOF dynamic analyses are implemented to obtain dynamic factors and static transmission error. According to results, hybrid gears have substantial potential to reduce the mass of gear transmission systems with no adverse effect on root stress and dynamic factor if the design parameters are appropriately selected. Besides, rim thickness is found as a critical parameter for the hybrid gears since when its value changes from 0.5xm to 3xm, the root stress decreases 10% while the tooth stiffness and torque capacity increase 20% and 65%, respectively.
