Defect Diagnosis and Modelling for A Rotating Machine Running at A Steady Pace
Abstract: Rotary equipment, such as gears, shafts, pumps, and bearings, are widely used across various rotary machine in industries, often operating under different loading conditions. The fluctuations in loading can lead to fatigue failures in rotating components, significantly affecting machinery performance. To investigate the behavior of such rotating equipment under diverse operational scenarios, a numerical model has been created. This approach can replace costly and often challenging experimental methods. However, it …

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 …
