Implementation of the methodology for calculating the contact interaction of teeth of gear wheels made of composite materials

Abstract

Based on the solutions of contact problems for fibrous materials and coatings of composite materials, the article considers the implementation of the method of calculating the pliability of gears of composite materials, determining the contact parameters of coatings of fibrous materials. To calculate the contact deformations of gears made of metals and composites, a program was developed in the Delphi environment, which makes it possible to calculate the coefficients of contact deformation of the gear tooth, as well as the calculation of contact deformations for a tooth with a fibrous coating. An integral equation is presented, which gives a solution of the contact problem of pressing a stamp into an orthotropic coating. To study the influence of the properties of the material and the thickness of the coating on the contact parameters, a computer program was compiled, which was used to calculate for different thicknesses.
