Calculations for marine equipment using this system accorded well with conventional results. As an example, an anti-shock computation was processed for a gear case, and the submodel was then employed to check the strength of individual components. The results showed that the gear case connecting structure can satisfy relative anti-shock requirements, and the dynamic response characteristics seen in the bolt structures had a close relationship with the method used for attaching the bolt. This provides a new means for checking the strength of connecting structures on large-scale equipment and thus has significant reference value.展开更多

These methods are: 1) the teeth carburization, hardening to a hardness of HRC 60-62 and then grinding, 2) the soft gear shaving as the final mechanical treatment and then carburizing and hardening to the hardness of HRC60-62. This work included the test results of the contact fatigue strength carried out on the circulating power system. The Wohler curves were plotted due to the obtained results, as the basis for the practical evaluation of the considered gear finishing methods. The parameters like volume distribution of the voids, content of the retained austenite, compressive residual stress value, but also the results of contact fatigue strength tests, are more favorable for the teeth shaving method than for the teeth grinding method.展开更多

In this work, a 2 D double-tooth model was constructed with periodic boundary conditions. The fatigue fracture behavior of gear teeth was analyzed using the extended finite element method(XFEM), with emphases on the impacts of initial crack geometries and cyclic load factors. The results suggested that the shortest fatigue life is expected for 0° orientation cracks initiating at the maximum principal stress. Cracks that initiate closer to the bottom land of gear tooth are relatively safe. Moreover, to evaluate the fatigue load conditions, load ratio, load range, and mean load should be all taken into considerations. Further XFEM simulation for material selection was performed to guide the gear design. Among various material parameters, the material constant C and tensile strength are the most significant ones in determining the fatigue life.展开更多
