Abstract
The optimization of any gear train is a challenging process, given the specifications of the mathematical model that explains its performance. This article discusses the design features and optimization of gear trains with spur gears with a specified GUI program based on Matlab coding. It will give a detailed outline of the selection of the design parameters, due to the governing equations and the selection of the optimal values in order to minimize the size of the gearbox with regard to the specific gears’ positions. Hence, after mathematical model development of the gear train, a GUI software is presented for the optimization process. It will then followed by a numerical example which has been compared and validated by the similar results of two other previously published studies for the same gearbox configuration and input data. The results show the effectiveness of the present method in the gearbox volume reduction.
