Considering the microstructure of tooth surface and the dynamic characteristics of the vibration responses, a compound dynamic backlash model is employed for the gear transmission system. Based on the fractal theory and dynamic center distance, respectively, the dynamic backlash is presented, and the potential energy method is applied to compute the time-varying meshing stiffness, including the healthy gear system and the crack fault gear system. Then, a 16-DOF coupled lateral-torsional gear-rotor-bearing transmission system with the crack fault is established. The fault characteristics in the time-domain waveform and frequency response and statistics data are described. The effect of crack on the time-varying meshing stiffness is analyzed. The vibration response of three backlash models is compared. The dynamic response of the system is explored with the increase in crack depth in detail. The results show that the fault features of countershaft are more obvious. Obvious fluctuations are presented in the time-domain waveform, and sidebands can be found in the frequency domain responses when the tooth root crack appears. The effect of compound dynamic backlash on the system is more obvious than fixed backlash and backlash with changing center distance. The vibration displacement along meshing direction and dynamic meshing force increases with the increase in crack depth. Backlash and variation of center distance show different tendencies with increasing crack depth under different rotational speeds. Amplitude of the sidebands increases with crack depth increasing. The amplitude of multiplication frequency of rotational frequency has an obvious variation with growing crack depth. The sidebands of the multiplication frequency of meshing frequency show more details on the system with complex backlash and crack fault.

The periodic and chaotic dynamic responses of face gear transmission system considering time-varying mesh stiffness and backlash nonlinearity are studied. Firstly, a nonlinear time-varying dynamic model of face gear pair is developed and the motion equations are presented, the real accurate mesh stiffness is obtained by applying Finite element approach. Then, the dynamic equations are solved using Runge-Kutta numerical integral method and bifurcation diagrams are presented and analyzed. The stability properties of steady state responses are illustrated with Floquet multipliers and Lyapunov exponents. The results show that a process of periodic-chaotic-periodic motion exists with the dimensionless pinion rotational frequency as control parameters. The analysis can be a reference to avoid the chaotic motion and unstable periodic motion through choosing suitable rotational frequency.

Abstract In this study, a 42-degree-of-freedom (42-DOF) translation-torsion coupling dynamics model of the wind turbine’s compound gear transmission system considering time-varying meshing friction, timevarying meshing stiffness, meshing damping, meshing error and backlash is proposed. Considering the different meshing between internal and external teeth of planetary gear, the time-varying meshing stiffness is calculated by using the cantilever beam theory. An improved mesh friction model takes account into the mixing of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) and boundary lubrication to calculate the time-varying mesh friction. The bifurcation diagram is used to analyze the bifurcation and chaos characteristics of the system under the excitation frequency as bifurcation parameter. Meanwhile, the dynamic characteristics of the gear system are identified from the time domain diagrams, phase diagrams, Poincare maps and amplitude-frequency spectrums of the gear system. The results show that the system has complex bifurcation and chaotic behaviors including periodic, quasi-periodic, chaotic motion. The bifurcation characteristics of the system become complicated and the chaotic region increases considering the effects of friction in the high frequency region.

Abstract At present, the mean value of the meshing stiffness and the gear backlash is a fixed value in the nonlinear dynamic model. In this study, wear is considered in the model of the gear backlash and time-varying stiffness. With the increase of the operating time, the meshing stiffness decreases and the gear backlash increases. A six degrees-of-freedom nonlinear dynamic model of a new rigid-flexible gear pair is established with time-varying stiffness and time-varying gear backlash. The dynamic behaviors of the gear transmission system are studied through bifurcation diagrams with the operating time as control parameters. Then, the dynamic characteristics of the gear transmission system are analyzed using excitation frequency as control parameters at four operating time points. The bifurcation diagrams, Poincaré maps, fast Fourier transform (FFT) spectra, phase diagrams, and time series are used to investigate the state of motion. The results can provide a reference for the gear transmission system with wear.
