In the case of TV products, space constraints and design requirements make it advantageous to use a worm gear that has a small volume and a self-locking function. Single enveloping worm gear teeth are classified as ZA, ZN, ZK, ZI, and ZC according to international standards. However, combining worm shafts and worm wheels with different tooth profiles can significantly worsen meshing transmission errors and reduce the lifespan of the worm gear. Despite these challenges, due to processing limitations, ease of manufacturing, and cost reduction, combinations of worm shafts and worm wheels with different tooth profiles are still considered. In this study, we confirmed the meshing transmission error for a worm gear that combined a ZA tooth shape worm shaft with a ZI tooth shape worm wheel. Additionally, we examined the contact stress and fatigue life characteristics of the material combinations using finite element analysis (FEM).
Process and die design of cold forging for the asymmetric part, engine mount adapter has been studied. Forging of the asymmetric part frequently causes die failure because of the high forging load and local stress concentration of the die. Thus, performing process design of cold forging to minimize forging load is required. Preform for the engine mount adapter was chosen based on the forging load and filling rate of forgings by the finite element analysis. In the die design, number of stress rings, interface radius, and relative interference were investigated in several cases with maximum principle stress by the finite element method. The shape of the die was determined by comparing the load changing the radius of the flange area. Also, the life of the designed die was calculated using the Goodman theory by cyclic fatigue loading. As a result, it was confirmed that the calculation life and results of the test were identical. In this study, it is verified that stress concentration and fatigue life should be considered simultaneously in the design of cold forging die for the asymmetric part.

If fatigue failure occurs during aircraft operation, it can cause catastrophic injuries. So, it is necessary to study fatigue failure at the design stage. Frequency domain fatigue analysis is used to predict fatigue failure. During frequency domain fatigue analysis, results can be calibrated by PSD analysis. In this study, fatigue failure is predicted by the Dirlik method, Lalanne method and Steinberg method. Regarding results, life determined by the Dirlik method, Lalanne method and Steinberg method were 8.737, 8.314, and 7.901 times the standard life, respectively. The Steinberg method is the most conservative but the difference with other methods was approximately 10%. In the cycle histogram, the Dirlik method had more counts than the Lalanne method in lower stress range. However, it does not affect the life of material used in this study. However, if material has a lower fatigue limit or stronger PSD data is used, life difference will occur.
