Popis: Dynamic modeling for gear systems is very important for accurately predicting the dynamic responses during the gear engagements. During the modeling, meshing force must be determined, and it is usually calculated by the product of the relative displacement along the line of action (LOA) and the meshing stiffness. At present, the relative displacement calculation for helical gear systems is very complicated by several existing methods because the complicated geometric relationships need to be derived for determining the spatial positions of two meshing points along LOA. In this study, a simple method for calculating the relative displacement along LOA is presented based on ANSYS software. And on this basis, a new finite element modeling method for a helical gear transmission system with multiple shafts is developed, where the influences of shafts and bearing flexibilities are considered. Moreover, the proposed method is validated by comparing the dynamic characteristics, such as natural characteristics and vibration responses, with those obtained from Kubur’s method and Zhang’s method.
