Mathematical Model for Oscillations in an Electric Drive with a Two-Stage Cylindrical Gear Reducer

Abstract

For the description of power transmission through drive links, a system of linear first-order differential equations has been applied taking into account the accelerations and rates of changes in stresses under torsional and transverse oscillations. An eighth order vector equation has been derived and solved, including algebraic elements, making it possible to calculate the fluctuations of stresses and motion velocities in any link of the system to a first approximation with the use of an engineering method. For a particular drive, the effect of the inertial properties of the load and the features of resistance torque formation exerted on the dynamic characteristics of the drive has been analyzed.
