AbstractThe exploration of this paper will focus on the Cshaped transition curve. This curve is designed by using the concept
of circle to circle where one circle lies inside other. The degree of
smoothness employed is curvature continuity. The function used in
designing the C-curve is Bzier-like cubic function. This function has
a low degree, flexible for the interactive design of curves and
surfaces and has a shape parameter. The shape parameter is used to
control the C-shape curve. Once the C-shaped curve design is
completed, this curve will be applied to design spur gear tooth. After
the tooth design procedure is finished, the design will be analyzed by
using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). This analysis is used to find
out the applicability of the tooth design and the gear material that
chosen. In this research, Cast Iron 4.5 % Carbon, ASTM A-48 is
selected as a gear material.
KeywordsBzier-like cubic function, Curvature continuity, Cshaped transition curve, Spur gear tooth.

V. NUMERICAL EXAMPLE
Let we have center points, c 0 = {0,0}, c1 = {1, 1}, radius,
r = 2, r = 0.4 and angles, = 0.8217 radian, = 1.9201

radian.
By applying (10), we determine k = 1.4135, and the shape
parameters are calculated by using (1), (10) and (11) where
the values are; 0 = 1.8733 and 1 = 1.0546. This example will
be visualized in Fig. 2.
This work will extend to develop the spur gear model. This
spur model can be used easily in 3D modeling analysis
approach. We have two options in creating a model either
using Mathematica 6.0 or Catia V5 software. In this paper, we
have chosen Catia V5 because of this engineering software is
easy to handle and practical to use in solid modeling.
