Summary
In this paper, the influence of the variable stiffness of mating gear teeth on dynamic loads occurring between teeth in a single-gear transmission is investigated using a discrete-continuous model consisting of two torsionally deformable ponderable shafts and four rigid bodies. The stiffness is described by a harmonic function of time. Considerations by means of the wave method enable to determine dynamic loads in steady as well as in transient states. Numerical calculations are concentrated on the determination of the amplitudes of dynamic loads on gear teeth with respect to revolution per minute.
