Reply To: Gear tooth deformation due to rotational velocity

Hi experts,

 The pinion shaft is supported by journal bearings on either side (but we have given cylindrical support). Whether the type of bearing support will affect the pinion tooth deformation?

The pinion shaft is an integral one (there is no separation between shaft and the wheel as in the case of gear wheel shafts). 

Is the fixed support possible here?

Please suggest a method to accurately estimate the gear/pinion tooth deformation.

Thanks,

Sudhakara
