This application is useful for engineers who want to design a set of gears quickly and students who want to check and make sure that their manual calculation and design is correct. Fill in the required fields and the app will generate all the other required attributes of each of the gear. There is also an optical option to automatically generate the results in excel format. As of now there is only one type of data (number of teeth) for designing, but in future versions I plan to add other types (diameter, center distance, module, etc.)

I have included Matlab Runtime for users without MATLAB installed, so non-MATLAB users can freely use this app as well.

Patch version 1.0.1 Notes:
Disabled app resize option.
Increased font size of popup messages for better readability.
Added units in results displays for easier recognition.
Fixed application title displaying incorrectly as "Pinion Gear Designer".

Update 1.1.1 Notes;
Allowed the 'Required Power" input values smaller than 1. (excluding zero and negative values)
Additional data will now be added into the table when "Include Dynamic Analysis" checkbox is ticked.
Added another error message which displays when "Required Power" input value is zero.
Fixed font size being inconsistent in error messages.
