Abstract

Asymmetric gear is a very relevant and essential power transmitting component in aviation vehicle as they do not need back gear motion. But research on asymmetric gear with different stress relieving features is very expensive and time consuming id it is done physically. So numerical analysis with CAD model of asymmetric gear with stress relieving features is a very economical as well as efficient way to do virtual testing with different gear configuration. In the present work an investigation has been done numerically using FEA software named ANSYS 18.1 on an asymmetric gear tooth with circular holes as Stress relieving features for the structural analysis under some pre-defined loading value.
