Study on Face Gear's Bending Stress Based on Test and Finite Element Analysis Method

Abstract:

For limited condition, the strain gauge was not fixed on the place of the maximum bending stress during the test of the face gear's bending stress in the research of face gear transmission stress analysis. The maximum bending stress was worked out through the finite element analysis method. The results of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) had the equivalent stress in corresponding position with the face gear tested. Then, by comparing the finite element results with the test results and the theoretical maximum stress, FEA was found approaching to the reality, and it provided a method for the analysis of face gear’ maximum bending stress.
