Effect of Fillet Radius on Bending Stress in Helical Gear using FEA
Abstract: A well-optimized change in root fillet radius could greatly benefit helical gear operation by providing a smoother transmission with less impact and noise. The fillet area of the gear root is an area of extensive bending stress concentration. An increase in fillet radius for helical gears is considered to minimise the bending stress at the gear tooth's base. This paper develops appropriate models of various gear tooth profiles of the …

Gear-Related Stress Analysis and Comparison Between the Fem and Agma Standards
Abstract: In many different devices, gears enable the efficient transfer of motion and torque. They are an essential component of modern mechanical power transmission systems. It has been demonstrated that bending and surface contact stresses at the gear tooth are the primary causes of gear failure, despite their widespread use. Too much stress can lead to tooth wear, pitting, or breakage, which can ultimately reduce the operating life and reliability of …

Finite Element Modelling of Contact Stresses in Helical Gear Systems
Abstract: Helical gears are widely used in modern power‐transmission systems because of their high load‐carrying capacity, smooth meshing action, and increased overlapping of gear teeth. However, the design of helical gear pairs is constrained by contact stresses generated at the mating tooth surfaces, which can lead to surface fatigue (pitting), micro-cracking, and ultimately gear failure. Traditional analytical methods, such as those of the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) or International Organization …
