Much research has been carried out to investigate the dynamical response of a gear system because of its importance on vibration feature analysis. It is well known that the gearbox casing is one of the most important components of the gear system and plays an important role in signal propagation. However, its effects have widely been neglected within the dynamic simulations and few dynamic models have considered the gearbox casing when modeling a gear transmission. This paper proposes a gear transmission dynamical model with the consideration of the effects of gearbox casing. The proposed dynamical model incorporates TVMS, a time-varying load sharing ratio, as well as dynamic tooth contact friction forces, friction moments and dynamic mesh damping coefficients. The proposed gear dynamical model is validated by comparison with responses obtained from experimental test rigs under different speed conditions. Comparisons indicate that the responses of the proposed dynamical model are consistent with experimental results, in both time and frequency domains under different rotation speeds.

This paper considers the investigations into adhesion, contact mechanics metal erosion effects, wear and tare as a result of the effects of frictional forces. Mechanical components rely on friction for the transformation and delivery of energy from point A to point B. This requires the knowledge of combined energies as well as their associated dynamic models and ancillary parameters. Adhesion, contact, friction and wear are major problems limiting both the fabrication yield and lifetime of any devices. Since it is the area of real contact, which determines the sliding friction, adhesion interaction may strongly affect the friction force even when no adhesion can be detected in a pull-off experiment. Therefore a good scientific dynamic modelling of friction forces is a prerequisite for the understanding and monitoring of friction adverse effect on mechanical systems for good maintenance purposes.

This work investigates dynamics of a three-stage gear system in a new power-driven turret. This paper mainly consists to develop two kinds of dynamic models of the main drive train. One is the dynamic contact model of the gear system to calculate the dynamic meshing forces and the tooth root stresses. The other is a virtual prototype model adequately incorporating the deformability of the bearings to analyze the dynamical response. The dynamic meshing force and the tooth root stress were compared with the theoretically calculated results. The vibration acceleration signals of the turret were gathered by tests. According to the experimental data, the simulation results of the virtual prototype model were given based on which the rationality of the virtual prototype model is verified.

Synthesising data from fire scenarios using fire simulations requires iterative running of these simulations. For real-time synthesising, faster-than-real-time simulations are thus necessary. In this article, different model types are assessed according to their complexity to determine the trade-off between the accuracy of the output and the required computing time. A threshold grid size for real-time computational fluid dynamic simulations is identified, and the implications of simplifying existing field fire models by turning off sub-models are assessed. In addition, a temperature correction for two zone models based on the conservation of energy of the hot layer is introduced, to account for spatial variations of temperature in the near field of the fire. The main conclusions are that real-time fire simulations with spatial resolution are possible and that it is not necessary to solve all fine-scale physics to reproduce temperature measurements accurately. There remains, however, a gap in performance between computational fluid dynamic models and zone models that must be explored to achieve faster-than-real-time fire simulations.

Abstract Existing literature on vehicle traction dynamics were reviewed for a variety of vehicle and tire dynamic models, some of which consider the pneumatic tires’ relaxation as a property of vehicle transient dynamics. In general, unlike the lateral relaxation counterpart, the longitudinal tire relaxation characteristics were mostly overlooked in tire transient dynamics modeling. As a continuation of the analytical study published in the 2018 DSCC Proceedings, the co-authors of this paper present an experimental study of the longitudinal tire relaxation characteristics of a Continental MPT 81 tire. Experimental results were obtained by conducting tests on an MTS Flat-Trac LTR tire testing machine. The experimental data is analyzed to investigate longitudinal tire relaxation characteristics as they relate to changes of tire conditions. The goal is to verify and refine the existing models suggested in the literature; as well as, discuss advantages and disadvantages of different test procedures and tire testing equipment. In particular, the paper investigates the longitudinal tire relaxation constant variation due to changes of wheel velocity, tire inflation pressure, and sine oscillations of tire slippage in the time and frequency domains. The paper concludes on the influence of the longitudinal tire relaxation constants on the tire/vehicle traction dynamics modeling.

A simplified rigid-flexible coupling dynamical model of the rail operating vehicle, including bogie frame and car body, was built. The car body is modeled as a flexible uniform Euler beam. The dynamical response of the vehicle under the irregularity dynamic action between wheel and rail was numerically calculated and analyzed by the fast stability algorithms. Influences of the suspension on vibration and stability of the vehicle are analyzed. The results have a certain reference value on the dynamic design of multi-functional track operating vehicle.

This paper describes an experimental effort designed to validate a general 2D bristle contact friction model. The model extends the 1D integrated bristle friction model to a 2D space by allowing the “bristle spring” to not only stretch along the direction of the bristle displacement but also rotate due to the instantaneous direction change of the velocity or motion trend in the common tangential plane of the contacting surfaces involved at the point of interest. The model is capable of simulating frictional behaviour in both sliding and sticking regimes occurring in general 3D rigid-body contact. With such an extension, the resulting friction model can be readily used to compute 3D contact friction forces in both sticking and sliding regimes. Two experiments were designed and implemented to validate the new 2D bristle model. The experiments were able to passively produce common frictional phenomena such as sliding, sticking, and stick-slip.

AbstractIn traditional transit timing variations (TTVs) analysis of multi-planetary systems, the individual TTVs are first derived from transit fitting and later modelled using n-body dynamic simulations to constrain planetary masses. We show that fitting simultaneously the transit light curves with the system dynamics (photo-dynamical model) increases the precision of the TTV measurements and helps constrain the system architecture. We exemplify the advantages of applying this photo-dynamical model to a multi-planetary system found in K2 data very close to 3:2 mean motion resonance, K2-19. In this case the period of the larger TTV variations (libration period) is much longer (>1.5 years) than the duration of the K2 observations (80 days). However, our method allows to detect the short period TTVs produced by the orbital conjunctions between the planets that in turn permits to uniquely characterise the system. Therefore, our method can be used to constrain the masses of near-resonant systems even when the full libration curve is not observed.

A geared rotor system model consisting of UPE gears and steel gears for medium speed, medium load and long servo time is proposed. The solid models of steel-steel, steel-UPE and UPE-UPE gear systems were established. The dynamic models of steel-UPE gear system and UPE-UPE gear system were reconstructed by using the theoretical mechanical model of UPE. The time-varying meshing stiffness of three gear systems is analyzed. The vibration responses of three gear systems are studied by STFT method. The dynamic loads of three gear systems under different loads and rotational speeds are researched in detail, and the changing rules of dynamic loads of three gear systems under different loads and rotational speeds are revealed. At last, the first ten modes of three gear systems are calculated and the results are discussed. At the same time, the modal results are used to verify the correctness of the research on vibration response and dynamic load of three gear systems.
