This paper proposes a computational model for predicting both the location and the required number of cycles for bending fatigue failure in surface hardened spur gears. Linear elastic stresses and strains in a single tooth bending fatigue test are corrected for elastic-plastic material behavior. The tooth root region of spur gear is divided into layers, and fatigue properties are assigned to each layer via the hardness method. Based on the multiaxial fatigue criteria, fatigue failure location and corresponding fatigue lives are estimated. The predicted fatigue lives, failure locations, and transition from surface to subsurface fatigue failure show good agreement with the experimental results.
