Abstract

Nonlinear racks, noncircular gears and chain rings are special and rare machine parts. The rarity can be explained by the complicated evaluation process of these gears. This introduced project, a numerical method were determined and applied in a computer program, which makes this process easier and faster. The main concepts of the numerical method and the functionality of our software will be shortly presented through some special examples.
