Editorial Description
Based on over 40 years of consultation and teaching experience, Gear Noise and Vibration demonstrates logical gear noise and vibration approaches without the use of complex mathematics or lengthy computation methods. The Second Edition offers new and extended discussions on high- and low-contact ratio gears, lightly loaded gears, planetary and split drives, and transmission error (T.E.) measurement. A straightforward source for enhanced gear design, assessment, and development practices, the boo  ...read whole description

Synopsis

Illustrated with over 150 figures, this text for researchers and development engineers (and interested graduate students) describes various practical and economical approaches to dealing with gear noise and vibration. The focus is on basic non-mathematical ideas of how vibration is generated by the transmission error and how it progresses through the system. The second edition offers new coverage of high- and low- contact ratio gears. Smith teaches engineering at Cambridge University.
