Abstract:Bearings and other revolute pairs in gear drives will form clearances due to wear after working for a long time, which will aggravate the vibration and noise of the gear. Therefore, taking the gear drives with revolute pair clearance as the research object, the calculation formulas of the backlash and contact ratio is derived, and the time-varying mesh stiffness model considering the clearance is presented in this work. Then, a nonlinear dynamic model for the gear drives with revolute pair clearance is propose… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
