Friction-induced noise of gear system with lead screw and nut: Mode-coupling instability

Abstract The mode-coupling instability in the gear system with a lead screw and nut is investigated. The actual gear geometry and the contact kinematics are developed in analytical the model. The complete set of vibration modes including axial, torsion and transverse displacements is applied to seek the solution of the linearized gear system. From the linear stability analysis, the bending mode pair as well as the torsion and axial mode pair have the strong tendency towards the mode-coupling instability. It points out that squeak noise in the lead screw system can occur even for a constant friction coefficient without the negative-friction velocity slope. The closed-form solution and numerical calculation also show that the rotating direction can drastically change the onset of mode-coupling instability.
