Studies on the spur gear, to increase the bending fatigue strength have been published by adopting gear with high pressure angle and positive addendum modification factor. However, studies on the spur gear with wide ...

Large consumption of lubricant may affect the environment due to their high potential of pollution. Therefore, there is significant demand to provide a solution to this current condition by using alternative lubricant ...

In this study, the effect of bond thickness upon the shear strength of epoxy adhesively bonded joint with dissimilar adherends is addressed. The bond thickness, t between the adherends is controlled to be ranged from ...

This paper deals with strength and failure prediction of V-shaped epoxy adhesive joint. The effect of scarf angle and bond thickness upon the joint strength is investigated by tensile test. A simple failure criterion ...

In certain range of crack interval ratio and crack width ratio, the neighboring cracks will affect the changes of stress field interaction around the crack tip, thus induced significant changes in stress intensity factor. ...
