Written by a leading expert, Theory of Gearing: Kinematics, Geometry, and Synthesis, Second Edition is intended for engineers and researchers in the field of gear design, gear production, gear inspection, and application of gears. It focuses on the scientific theory of gearing, in all its aspects, and its application to new gear types and designs.

  • Develops a rigorous scientific theory for optimal gear design, manufacture, and performance
  • Provides a configuration of rotation vectors of the gear and pinion, and input torque
  • Expands upon the coverage of the 1st edition, with six new chapters and expanded appendices
  • Presents a formalized set of algorithms for gear design and performance
  • Modifies, enhances, and improves the coverage provided in the book's first edition
