Kinematic Geometry of Gearing

Building on the first edition published in 1995 this new edition of Kinematic Geometry of Gearing has been extensively revised and updated with new and original material. This includes the methodology for general tooth forms, radius of torsure’, cylinder of osculation, and cylindroid of torsure; the author has also completely reworked the ‘3 laws of gearing’, the first law re-written to better parallel the existing ‘Law of Gearing” as pioneered by Leonard Euler, expanded from Euler’s original law to encompass non-circular gears and hypoid gears, the 2nd law of gearing describing a unique relation between gear sizes, and the 3rd law completely reworked from its original fo…
