Abstract: There are many practical situations where resonances and instabilities in pinion-gear systems are difficult to predict in the design stage due to the unreliability of estimating the mesh stiffness ...

Abstract: The parameters influencing high dynamic magnifications and instabilities in multiple-reduction geared systems are investigated in this study. These factors include the effect of external excitations, ...

Abstract: This paper describes a computer simulation procedure based on the phase-plane method for predicting the steady-state response, resonances and instabilities of pinion-gear systems subjected to ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the conditions for transforming coupled systems with time-varying stiffness to normal mode coordinates. The stability regions are determined from the normal mode equations ...

Abstract: Parametric vibrations occur in many mechanical systems such as gears where the stiffness variation and external excitations generally occur at integer multiples of the rotational speed. This paper ...
