The prime source of vibration and noise in a gear system
is the transmission error between meshing gears.
Transmission error is a term used to describe or is
defined as the differences between the theoretical and
actual positions between a pinion (driving gear) and a
driven gear. It has been recognized as a main source for
mesh frequency excited noise and vibration. With prior
knowledge of the operating conditions of the gear set it
is possible to design the gears such that the vibration and
noise is minimized. Transmission error is usually due to
two main factors. The first is caused by manufacturing
inaccuracy and mounting errors. Gear designers often
attempt to compensate for transmission error by
modifying the gear teeth [5]. The second type of error is
caused by elastic deflections under load. Among the
types of gearbox noise, one of the most difficult to
control is gear noise generated at the tooth mesh
frequency. Transmission error is considered to be one of
the main contributors to noise and vibration in a gear
set. This suggests that the gear noise is closely related to
transmission error. If a pinion and gear have ideal
involutes profiles running with no loading torque they
should theoretically run with zero transmission error [6].
However, when these same gears transmit torque, the
combined tensional mesh stiffness of each gear changes
throughout the mesh cycle as the teeth deflect, causing
variations in angular rotation of the gear body. Even
though the transmission error is relatively small, these
slight variations can cause noise at a frequency which
matches a resonance of the shafts or the gear housing,
causing the noise to be enhanced. This phenomenon has
been actively studied in order to minimize the amount of
transmission error in gears.
Gears analyses in the past were performed using
analytical methods, which required a number of
assumptions and simplifications. In general, gear
analyses are multidisciplinary, including calculations
related to the tooth stresses and to tribological failures
such as like wear or scoring. In this thesis, static contact
and bending stress analyses were performed, while
trying to design spur gears to resist bending failure and
pitting of the teeth, as both affect transmission error. As
computers have become more and more powerful,
people have tended to use numerical approaches to
develop theoretical models to predict the effect of
whatever is studied. This has improved gear analyses
and computer simulations. Numerical methods can
potentially provide more accurate solutions since they
normally require much less restrictive assumptions. The
model and the solution methods, however, must be
chosen carefully to ensure that the results are accurate

as specified in the input file. It was hoped that the
number of elements in the Hertz contact zone could be
related to the solution accuracy, independent of the
specific force or cylinder sizes considered. Num is equal
to 10 here.
III. Result and Discussion
One of the predominant modes of gear tooth failure is
pitting. Pitting is a surface fatigue failure due to many
repetitions of high contact stress occurring on the gear
tooth surface while a pair of teeth is transmitting power.
In other words, contact stress exceeding surface
endurance strength with no endurance limits or a finite
life causes this kind of failure. Contact failure in gears is
currently predicted by comparing the calculated Hertz
stress to experimentally determine allowable values for
the given material. The details of the subsurface stress
