Stress Analysis of a Defected Gear Pair Using Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

Gearing is one of the most critical components in a mechanical power transmission system, and in most industrial machinery. It is possible that gears will become the most effective means of transmitting power in future machines due to their high degree of reliability and compactness. In addition, the rapid shift in the industry from heavy industries such as shipbuilding to industries such as automobile manufacture and office automation tools will require a refined application of gear technology
