A Systematic Review of Advanced Composite Materials for High-Performance Spur Gear Applications
Abstract: This is a review which provides specific and detailed information regarding the fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite to replace traditional steel in high-performance spur gears with emphasis on mechanical performance, computational modeling, and experimental validation. Methods: The current literature was thoroughly investigated that includes material properties, material simulation (e.g., finite element analysis, FEA), and experimental gear testing procedures (e.g., DIN 51354, ASTM G99). Certain case studies in the aerospace and automotive …

Analysis of Die Corner Gap Formation for Strain Hardening Materials in ECAP Through an Upper Bound Sensitivity Approach: A Comparative Study
Abstract: In recent work, using a proposed central composite factorial analysis, the upper-bound theorem's theoretical concept for the equal channel angular pressing process are used. The upper-bound theorem-based theoretical solutions consider Tresca friction conditions and varied fillet radii at the die channel junction. When using AA5083's uniaxial mechanical properties, isotropic nonlinear work hardening is assumed. The ratio of the cumulative effective plastic strain to the time generated by the deformation zones, …
