The Lewis Bending Equation
Wilfred Lewis introduced an equation for
estimating the bending stress in gear teeth in
which the tooth form entered into the
formula.
The equation, announced in 1892, still
remains the basis for most gear design
today.

Dynamic effects
When a pair of gears is driven at moderate or high
speed and noise is generated, it is certain that
dynamic effects are present.
If a pair of gears failed at 500 lbf tangential load at
zero velocity and at 250 lbf at velocity V1, then a
velocity factor, designated Kv, of 2 was specified
for the gears at velocity V1.

Example 14-1
A stock spur gear is available having a module of 4 mm, a
44 mm face width, 18 teeth, and a pressure angle of 20°
with full-depth teeth. The material is AISI 1020 steel in as-
rolled condition. Use a design factor of nd = 3 to rate the
power output of the gear corresponding to a speed of n
= 25 rev/s and moderate applications.
Solution
The term moderate applications seems to imply that the
gear can be rated by using the yield strength as a criterion
of failure. AISI 1020 steel in as-rolled, from Table A-18,
Sut = 380 MPa and Sy = 210 MPa.

Surface durability
Wear is the failure of the surfaces of gear
teeth.
Pitting is a surface fatigue failure due to
many repetitions of high contact stresses.
Scoring is a lubrication failure, and
abrasion, which is wear due to the presence
of foreign material.

To obtain an expression for the surface-contact
stress, we shall employ the Hertz theory. The
contact stress between two cylinders may
computed from the equation;
pmax =largest surface pressure.
F= force pressing the two cylinders together.

AGMA equations
Two fundamental stress equations are used in the
AGMA methodology, one for bending stress and
another for pitting resistance (contact stress).
In AGMSA terminology, these are called stress
numbers, as contrasted with actual applied stress
(σ).

AGMA Strengths
AGMA uses allowable stress numbers rather than strengths.
We will refer to them as strengths for consistency within the
textbook.
The gear strength values are only for use with the AGMA stress
values, and should not be compared with other true material
strengths.
Representative values of typically available bending strengths are
given in Table 14–3 for steel gears and Table 14–4 for iron and
bronze gears.
Figs. 14–2, 14–3, and 14–4 are used as indicated in the tables.
Tables assume repeatedly applied loads at 107 cycles and 0.99
reliability.

Values for Y and Z are found in the AGMA standards.
For most common case of spur gear with 20º pressure angle, J can be read directly from Fig. 14–6.
For helical gears with 20º normal pressure angle, use Figs. 14–7 and 14–8.

Affected by manufacturing quality of gears
A set of quality numbers Qv define tolerances for gears
manufactured to a specified accuracy.
Quality numbers 3 to 7 include most commercial-quality gears.
Quality numbers 8 to 12 are of precision quality.
The AGMA transmission accuracy-level number Av is basically the
same as the quality number.

Hardness-Ratio Factor CH (ZW)
Since the pinion is subjected to more cycles than the gear, it is
often hardened more than the gear.
The hardness-ratio factor accounts for the difference in hardness of
the pinion and gear.
CH is only applied to the gear. That is, CH = 1 for the pinion.
For the gear,
Eq. (14–36) in graph form is given in Fig. 14–12.

Comparison of Factors of Safety
Bending stress is linear with transmitted load.
Contact stress is not linear with transmitted load
To compare the factors of safety between the different failure
modes, to determine which is critical,
◦ Compare SF with SH2 for linear or helical contact
◦ Compare SF with SH3 for spherical contact

Comparing Pinion with Gear
Comparing the pinion with the gear can provide insight.
Equating factors of safety from bending equations for pinion and
gear, and cancelling all terms that are equivalent for the two, and
solving for the gear strength, we get
Substituting in equations for the stress-cycle factor YN,
Normally, mG > 1, and JG > JP, so Eq. (14–44) indicates the gear
can be less strong than the pinion for the same safety factor.
