Experimental Investigation of Contact and Bending Stresses of Involute Gear Pair

Highly loaded gears experience high bending and contact stresses. Gear tooth failure will likely happen due to these stresses. The major failures that usually happen are pitting and cracked root. These failures can be overcome by knowing the bending and contact stresses of the gear. Therefore, this...
