This work is the second and last part of a study whose aim is to present the vibrational aspects of a system with a centrifugal pendulum vibration absorber (i.e. CPVA). The aim of this work, specifically, is to develop a mathematical model of a front engine–front wheel drive powertrain to study gear rattle phenomenon, and to install on its clutch disk’s flange a CPVA in order to understand what are the effects of this device on the dynamics of this system. Results from the linear analysis show that the eigenfrequencies of the system vary with the engine speed. They oscillate between the eigenvalues of the system without the CPVA and, for regions away from the tuning frequency of the pendulum, which is the second order of rotation of the engine, the behaviour of the system remains the same. However, near the tuning frequency of the pendulum, the behaviour of the system varies very much, and the amplitude of vibration of the gearbox’s inner parts diminishes. Simulations of the powertrain without and with the nonlinear model of the studied device show that its presence reduces dramatically the vibrations inside the gearbox and its nonlinear character does not influence the effectiveness of this solution.

The nonlinear dynamic response of a centrifugal pendulum vibration absorber with damping in both the primary system and the pendulum is analyzed using the methods of harmonic balance and Floquet theory. Periodic solutions are approximated by the first harmonic of the response and it is shown that for low and moderate response amplitudes the resulting frequency response curves agree well with results from simulations of the full nonlinear equations of motion. Particular attention is paid to the response at the anti-resonance frequency, that is, the operating frequency for which the absorber is tuned. Cases are demonstrated for which there exists more than one stable steady-state periodic motion of the system at the anti-resonance frequency; this particular property of the system is due to nonlinear effects and cannot be captured through the traditional linear analysis. Furthermore, it is shown that for certain ranges of parameter values the only stable periodic response of the system at the anti-resonance frequency is one of large amplitude, and it cannot be predicted by linear analysis. The effects of system parameters on the shifting of the anti-resonance frequency and on the corresponding carrier amplitude are also considered.

Compared with dual-mass flywheel (DMF) and DMF with simple-type centrifugal pendulum vibration absorber (CPVA), DMF with bifilar-type CPVA has a better damping performance in the whole speed range of engine. The related research mainly focused on local models, such as dynamic model of DMF and dynamic model of CPVA, and the effect of the curvature path of CPVA on the damping performance. The reported models and methods are not sufficient for the system of DMF coupled with bifilar CPVA. Aiming at the deficiency of local models and the limitation of bench test, an integral model for DMF with bifilar CPVA is proposed and the real vehicle test is carried out in this study. Involving the moment of inertia of the centrifugal pendulum, the model considers the nonlinearities of DMF and bifilar CPVA. Afterward, the dynamic model of the automobile power transmission system equipped with the DMF with bifilar-type CPVA is built, and the dynamic responses of the system are investigated under idling and driving conditions. According to the simulation results, DMF with bifilar-type CPVA shows better vibration reduction performance in full-speed range. Moreover, the key structural parameters R and l influencing the damping performance of DMF with bifilar CPVA are discussed. The results show that the sum of R and l is directly proportional to the damping effect. Finally, real vehicle tests under idling and driving conditions (engine speed from 750 r/min to 3400 r/min) are carried out. The test results show that the 2nd order engine speed fluctuations are attenuated by more than 80% by DMF with bifilar CPVA with engine speed lower than 2000 r/min and are attenuated by more than 90% with engine speed higher than 2000 r/min. The experimental results are basically consistent with the simulation results, which verify the validity of the model.

A vibration model of the powertrain can be used to predict its dynamic behavior when excited by fluctuations in the engine torque and speed. The torsional vibration resulting from torque and speed fluctuations increases the rattle noise in the gearbox and it should be controlled or minimized in order to gain acceptance by clients and manufactures. The fact that the proprieties of the torsional damper integrated into the clutch disc alter the dynamic characteristic of the system is important in the automotive industry for design purposes. In this study, bench test results for the characteristics of a torsional damper for a clutch system (torsional stiffness and friction moment) and powertrain torsional vibration measurements taken in a passenger car were used to verify and calibrate the model. The adjusted model estimates the driveline natural frequency and the time response vibration. The analysis uses order tracking signal processing to isolate the response from the engine excitation (second-order). It is shown that a decrease in the stiffness of the clutch disc torsional damper lowers the natural frequency and an increase in the friction moment reduces the peak amplitude of the gearbox torsional vibration. The formulation and model adjustment showed that a nonlinear model with three degrees of freedom can represent satisfactorily the powertrain dynamics of a front-wheel drive passenger car.

An analytical model to simulate the traction performance of mechanical front wheel drive MFWD tractors was developed at the Agroscope Reckenholz-Tänikon ART. The model was validated via several field tests in which the relationship between drawbar pull and slip was measured for four MFWD tractors of power ranging between 40 and 123 kW on four arable soils of different texture (clay, clay loam, silty loam, and loamy sand). The pulling tests were carried out in steady-state controlling the pulling force along numerous corridors. Different configurations of tractors were considered by changing the wheel load and the tyre pressure. Simulations of traction performance matched experimental results with good agreement (mean error of 8% with maximum and minimum values of 17% and 1% respectively). The model was used as framework for developing a new module for the excel application TASCV3.0.xlsm, a practical computer tool which compares different tractor configurations, soil textures and conditions, in order to determine variants which make for better traction performance, this resulting in saving fuel and time, i.e. reducing the costs of tillage management.
