dc.description.abstract | The objective of this research is to determine the influence of gear tooth geometrical variations in the performance of a double wave harmonic drive through statistical analysis. This work incorporates state of the art analytical and numerical models to evaluate kinematic error, load capacity, bending fatigue strength, and pitting. The geometric variables considered in this study include gear modulus, pressure angle, and tooth correction factor. The statistical analysis follows a three-level full-factorial design of experiments. Nonlinear dynamic simulation is accompanied by finite element analysis to estimate contact and bending stresses. Largest bending fatigue strength is also determined. Results demonstrate that gear modulus is the geometric parameter with prevalent influence on the kinematic error, and pitting life is rather high for all geometric variables considered. | en_US |
