1、09FTM16AGMA Technical PaperAllowable ContactStresses in JackingGear Units Used in theOffshore Industryby A.N. Montestruc, Friede N is the number of cycles a typical gear toothwill see. That value should be in the range400 to 100,000 at most.For larger numbers of cycles the allowable contactstresses

The factor of 1.40fallsoutsuchthatAwillequalBratN=400. Thisisused due to the lack of any well documentedexperimental data.The user is caut
