AGMA Formulae Summary D

The document summarizes stress formulae from the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) for calculating stresses in gear systems. It includes formulas for calculating tensile stress due to bending, compressive stress due to contact pressures, and surface durability limits. Various stress concentration factors are accounted for, such as application, size, temperature, reliability, and surface finish. A balanced gear train is designed such that the factor of safety against failure is equal for all gears under both tensile and compressive loads. Elastic coefficient, geometric, and gear ratio factors are also defined for the stress equations.
