Abstract
Involute spur gears subject to damage on their fillet and contact areas because of local stresses. There is no significant stress except these regions. Based on this fact, different materials could be used for high stress and low stress regions provided that suitable fusion method is available. This kind of design change results in weight reduction, and it ensures to reduce CO2 emissions for vehicles. In this study, natural frequencies and root stress of bimetal spur gears were analyzed. Results were compared with full steel spur gear. The steel was used for high stress region. Aluminum and magnesium alloys were used as low stress zone.
