Abstract

The minimum of tooth surface flash temperature and vibration acceleration RMS design is proposed and analyzed. The tooth contact analysis (TCA) and the load tooth contact analysis (LTCA) method and multi-objective optimization are also detailed. Satisfying design variables in multiple physical quantities leads to the minimum of multi-objective optimization. Considering the tooth surface loading conditions are uniform or not, the optimal modification of the tooth surface for improving gear comprehensive characteristics under various load bearing conditions is improved. The tooth surface flash temperature and vibration acceleration root mean square (RMS) values in different transmission modes of marine ship power rear gears drive system are derived. This research considers the multi-objective optimization modifications of tooth surface, and its main purpose is to propose an approach to help design tooth corrections to simultaneously optimize several objective physical quantities.
