A Comparison of Several SDOF Models of Gear Dynamics
暂无分享,去创建一个
It is commonly believed that a complete understanding of gear dynamics is essential for the design of gear transmission systems capable of running at low noise and vibration levels with prolonged service life. Several single degree of freedom (SDOF) models of gear dynamics with clearance nonlinearity are generalized based on previous research, while a constant damping ratio is assumed and the friction is neglected. These models include the effects of time-varying mesh stiffness, gear manufacturing errors, profile modifications and backlash. Comparisons of the steady responses predicted by these SDOF models are intensively studied and the relationships between these models are discussed. Even though, different types of mesh stiffness and different treatments of the gear error functions in the analysis are used in these models, the steady-state responses predicted by these models are generally consistent with each other and agree well with experimental results. However, some discrepancies and relationships do exist among these models. The advantages and disadvantages of each model are highlighted.Copyright © 2016 by ASME
