Abstract

The modeling of the dynamic behavior of a two-stage gear system is made for a general configuration of wheels location. The excitation is induced by the periodic variation of the mesh stiffness. This case describes the real working of the gearings. The variation of the mesh phasing is related to the number of teeth and also to the wheels location. We developed a plane model of a two-stage gear system. The modal analysis of the system was then treated. The calculation of the dynamic response was done by a step-by-step time integration method (Newmark algorithm). Three cases of wheels location are treated. The solutions are presented both in the frequency domain and in the time domain. Three types of geometric defects of the toothed wheels are introduced in the model: defect of eccentricity, profile error and assembly defect.

An analysis of the effects of these defects on the gear system dynamic behavior is then treated.
