The design of gears and gear drives are becoming challenging in automobile applications in which low contact ratio gears are required to transmit higher loads and be lighter in weight. There are various methods available for optimizing the design. Some researches have been taken place in the areas of gear tooth profile modifications for providing internal stress relief and weight reduction. In most cases, the maximum loads are assumed to be acting on the tip of the tooth. In this study, investigations are carried out on the effect of circular discontinuity on the weight reduction without affecting the root stress. The maximum tangential load is applied on the highest point of single tooth contact. The results show that with the modified gear tooth having a combination of two circular discontinuities of size 0.4 times the module not only provides weight reduction but also gives stress relief at the root.
