In this paper, nonlinear dynamic model of spur gear pairs with fractional-order damping under the condition of time-varying stiffness, backlash and static transmission error is established. The general formula of fractional-order damping term is derived by using the incremental harmonic balance method (IHBM), and the approximate analytical solution of the system is obtained by use of the iterative formula. The correctness of the results is verified by comparing with the numerical solutions in the existing literature. The effects of mesh stiffness, internal excitation amplitude and fractional order on the dynamic behavior of the system are analyzed. The results show that changing the fractional order can effectively control the resonance position and amplitude in the meshing process. Both the mesh stiffness and internal excitation can control the collision state and the stability.

Abstract. A noncircular face gear (NFG) conjugated with a pinion is a new type of face gear which can transmit variable velocity ratio and in which two time-varying excitations exist, namely the meshing stiffness excitation and instantaneous center excitation. Considering the tooth backlash, static transmission error and multifrequency parametric excitation, a nonlinear dynamic model of the NFG pair is presented. Based on the harmonic balance method and discrete Fourier transformation, a semi-analytic approach for the nonlinear dynamic model is given to analyze the dynamic behaviors of the NFG. Results demonstrate that, with increase in the eccentric ratio, input velocity and error amplitude, the NFG will undergo a non-rattle, unilateral rattle and bilateral rattle state in succession, and a jump phenomenon will appear in the dynamic responses when the rattle state of the gears is transformed from unilateral rattle to bilateral rattle.

The paper determines the impact factors of dynamics of a motorized spindle rotor system due to high speed: centrifugal force and bearing stiffness softening. A nonlinear dynamic model of the grinding motorized spindle system considering the above impact factors is constructed. Through system simulation including phase portraits and Poincaré map, the periodic behavior and chaotic behavior of the nonlinear grinding motorized spindle system are revealed. The threshold curve of chaos motion is obtained through the Melnikov method. The conclusion can provide a theoretical basis for researching deeply the dynamic behaviors of the grinding motorized spindle system.

Abstract In this study, a nonlinear dynamic model of a spur gear transmission system with non-uniform wear is proposed to analyze the interaction between surface wear and nonlinear dynamic characteristics. A quasi-static non-uniform wear model is presented, with consideration of the effects of operating time on mesh stiffness and gear backlash. Furthermore, a nonlinear dynamic model with six degrees-of-freedom is established considering surface friction, time-varying gear backlash, time-varying mesh stiffness, and eccentricity, and the Runge–Kutta method applied to solve this model. The bifurcation and chaos in the proposed dynamic model with the change of the operating time and the excitation frequency are investigated by bifurcation and spectrum waterfall diagrams to analyze the bifurcation characteristics and the dimensionless mesh force. It is found that surface wear is generated with a change in operating time and affects the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of the spur gear system. This study provides a better understanding of nonlinear dynamic characteristics of gear transmission systems operating under actual conditions.

The nonlinear dynamic analysis of a multi-gear train with time-varying mesh stiffness on account of the modification coefficient effect is in vestigated in this paper. The proposed application of the modification coefficient will revise the center distance of the gear pair, avoid undercut and raise the mesh stiffness of the designed gear system. In this study, the gear profile is generated from the relationship between the rack cutter and the gear work piece by using the envelope theory. The rack cutter with the modification coefficient increases the mesh stiffness and thus enhances the strength of the gear tooth. Then the time-varying mesh stiffness at the contact position of the gear pair is calculated from the tooth deflection analysis using the generated gear profile. With the obtained time-varying mesh stiffness, the nonlinear dynamic behavior of multi-gear train is investigated by using Runge-Kutta integration method. The numerical results of the studied examples show the harmonic motion, sub-harmonic motion, chaotic motion and bifurcation phenomenon of the gear train.

In this study, a new antibacklash gear mechanism design comprising three pinions and a rack is introduced. This mechanism offers several advantages compared to conventional antibacklash mechanisms, such as lower transmission error as well as lower required preload. Nonlinear dynamic modeling of this mechanism is developed to acquire insight into its dynamic behavior. It is observed that the amount of preload required to diminish the backlash depends on the applied input torque and nature of periodic mesh stiffness. Then, an attempt is made to obtain an approximate relation to find the minimum requiring preload to preserve the system’s antibacklash property and reduce friction and wear on the gear teeth. The mesh stiffness of the mated gears, rack, and pinion is achieved via finite element method. Assuming that all teeth are rigid and static transmission error is negligible, dynamic transmission error (DTE) would be zero for every input torque, which is a unique trait, not yet proposed in previous research.

Considering backlash, radial clearance of bearing and time-varying mesh stiffness, nonlinear dynamic model of gear bearing rotor system is established considering unbalance and loosening fault. Nonlinear dynamic equations are solved using Runge-Kutta method and Newton-Raphson method. Numerical simulations of the dynamic equations and the affection of the depth of crack and length of wear to the nonlinear dynamic behavior are studied. The results shows that tooth off, bilateral impact phenomenon are occurred, with increasing gear failure when unbalance occurs, and the gear system exhibits a diverse range of periodic, quasi-periodic and chaotic motion. When loosening fault occurs, the range of chaos motion is increased, and gear burnishing is also intensified.

In the actual measurements, vibration and noise spectrum of gear pair often exhibits sidebands around the gear mesh harmonic orders. In this study, a nonlinear time-varying dynamic model of spur gear pair was established to predict the modulation sidebands caused by the AM-FM modulation internal excitation. Here, backlash, modulation time-varying mesh stiffness, and modulation transmission error are considered. Then the undamped natural mode was studied. Numerical simulation was made to reveal the dynamic characteristic of a spur gear under modulation condition. The internal excitation was shown to exhibit obvious modulation sideband because of the modulation time-varying mesh stiffness and modulation transmission error. The Runge-Kutta method was used to solve the equations for analyzing the dynamic characteristics with the effect of modulation internal excitation. The result revealed that the response under modulation excitation exhibited obvious modulation sideband. The response under nonmodulation condition was also calculated for comparison. In addition, an experiment was done to verify the prediction of the modulation sidebands. The calculated result was consistent with the experimental result.

Abstract Modern computers are generally equipped with multi-core central processing units (CPUs). There has been great interest to introduce a parallelized harmonic balance method to make full use of computing resources and improve the efficiency in dealing with nonlinear dynamic analysis of high-dimensional spatially discretized models of continuous systems. In this work, an optimized efficient Galerkin averaging-incremental harmonic balance method for solving high-dimensional models of continuous systems based on parallel computing is introduced. Optimized parallel implementation based on tensor contraction is introduced in time-domain series calculations and the quasi-Newton method is used in the iteration procedure, which greatly accelerate computational speeds of both serial and parallel implementations. Especially, the parallel implementation achieves high parallel efficiency when multiple CPU cores are used. Due to its high computational efficiency and good robustness, the proposed method has the potential to be used as a powerful universal solver and analyzer for general types of continuous systems.

Abstract The nonlinear frequency response characteristics of a spur gear pair with fractional-order derivative under combined internal and external excitations are investigated based on the incremental harmonic balance (IHB) method. First, a pure torsional vibration model is proposed that contains various complex factors, such as the time-varying mesh stiffness, transmission error, the fluctuation of input torque, backlash. Then, the IHB method is developed to calculate the higher-order approximate solution of the system and the correctness of the results is verified by comparing with numerical simulation results obtained by the Power Series Expansion (PSE) method. Furthermore, the types of various impact situations and their judgment conditions are discussed, and the different impact behaviors are analyzed in detail when w?[0,1.5] by using phase diagrams and amplitude-frequency response curves. The influence of important parameters on the dynamic characteristics of gear pair is analyzed at last. The results indicate that the analytical solution derived by IHB method is sufficiently precise. Significantly, the dynamic characteristics of the system could be effectively controlled by adjusting time-varying mesh stiffness coefficient, the order and coefficient of fractional-order term and the amplitudes of internal excitation or external excitation. As a part of the theory of fractional-order mechanical system, the impact performance of fractional-order gear pair is approached for the first time by analytical method.
