Review of research on international gear transmissions

Several international conferences on gears is introduced, furthermore, the statistic analysis is conducted on the international gear research in recent years by taking example of the most influential Germany international gear conference. Some important issues on the design, manufacture, and application of gear transmissions is discussed including how to improve the load capacity, suppress vibration and noise, improve transmission efficiency, save resources, improve the efficiency of manufacture, and avoid the environmental contamination, and so on. Main progresses and research highlights of the international gear researches are also introduced and analyzed.
