The Gear Design for Low Noise it will cover includes TE spur gears; TE helical gears; The relation of TE to contact ratios and the concept of integer contact ratio; the effect of misalignment on tooth contact; approaches to designing gears for low TE and TE in planetary gears. The Noise Signals information covered is tooth passing frequencies; gear pairs; planetary gears; run out; generation of side bands and ghost frequencies and their origin.
