Based on the theory of energy minimization, a numerical algorithm was developed to calculate friction force distribution along the time-varying contact line in helical gear system. The friction force distribution varies with the instantaneous position of the meshing point and the length of contact line. The friction force was calculated on every meshing point of time-varying contact line via the algorithm. The results show the friction force becomes larger from the tooth root to the pitch point and becomes smaller from the pitch point to the tooth tip. Due to this, there is a significant shock at the pitch point which will generate noise and vibration. The changing law of friction force distribution provides a fundamental theory for modification shape design and impact reduction.

The double-helical gear system was widely used in ship transmission. In order to study the influence of backlash on the nonlinear frequency response characteristics of marine double-helical gear system, according to the structural characteristics of double-helical gear transmission, considering the time-varying meshing stiffness, backlash, damping, comprehensive transmission error, external load excitation, and other factors, a three-dimensional bending-torsional-axial-pendular coupling nonlinear dynamic modeling and dynamic differential equation of 24-DOF double-helical gear transmission system were established. The Runge–Kutta numerical method was used to analyze the influence of backlash, time-varying meshing stiffness, damping, error and external load excitation on the amplitude frequency characteristics. The results show that the backlash can cause the runout of the double-helical gear system, and the system has first harmonic and second harmonic response. With the increase of backlash, the amplitude of the system increases and the jumping phenomenon remains unchanged. The amplitude frequency response of the system is stimulated by time-varying meshing stiffness and comprehensive transmission error, and restrained by damping and external load excitation. The vibration displacement amplitude of the system increases with the increase of vibration displacement and has little effect on the state change of the system. The vibration test of double-helical gear is carried out. The frequency response components obtained by numerical simulation are basically consistent with the experimental results, which proves the correctness of the theoretical calculation. It provides a technical basis for the study of vibration and noise reduction performance of double-helical gear.

Under high-speed and heavy-load conditions, the influence of temperature on the gear system is extremely important. Basically, the current work on the effect of temperature mostly considers the flash temperature or the overall temperature field to cause expansion at the meshing point and then affects nonlinear factors such as time-varying meshing stiffness, which lead to the deterioration of the dynamic transmission. This work considers the effect of temperature on the material’s elastic modulus and Poisson’s ratio and relates the temperature to the time-varying meshing stiffness. The effects of temperature on the elastic modulus and Poisson’s ratio are expressed as functions and brought into the improved energy method stiffness calculation formula. Then, the dynamic characteristics of the gear system are analyzed. With the bifurcation diagram, phase, Poincaré, and fast Fourier transform plots of the gear system, the influence of temperature on the nonlinear dynamics of the gear system is discussed. The numerical analysis results show that as the temperature increases, the dynamic response of the system in the middle-speed region gradually changes from periodic motion to chaos.

Abstract Based on “slice method”, the improved time-varying mesh stiffness (TVMS) calculation model of helical gear pair with tooth surface wear is proposed, in which the effect of friction force that obtained under mixed elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) is considered in the model. Based on the improved TVMS calculation model, the dynamic model of helical gear system is established, then the influence of tooth wear parameters on the dynamic response is studied. The results illustrate that the varying reduction extents of mesh stiffness along tooth profile under tooth surface wear, in addition, the dynamic response in time-domain and frequency-domain present significant decline in amplitude under deteriorating wear condition.
