Contact pressure evaluation of a gear pair along the line of action using finite element analysis

In loaded gears, contact behavior along the line of action changes tremendously. This leads to variation in gear contact conditions along the tooth flank, which may cause the failures such as surface wear, scuffing and pitting at different positions on the tooth surface. Hence, the information on th...
