Abstract

This paper describes a dynamic model for gear transmissions acting around a static working point, and taking into account the complete mechanical components. Gearbox casing behavior is introduced by using substructure analysis, and a tangent stiffness matrix could be defined for each roller body bearing element. This model is used to study the dynamic behaviour of an automobile gearbox. The first studies highlight the influence of the roller bearings on the dynamic behaviour of the kinematic chain and show that the bearings have to be modelled accurately. In a second step, the flexible casing of the gearbox is taken into account and dynamic couplings between deformations of the casing and the kinematic chain are evaluated. As a result of these works, global dynamic behaviour of automobile gearboxes can be provided and consequences of technological choices could be evaluated.
