Abstract
This paper employs hybrid modelling techniques in the investigation of the dynamic performance of ‘long’ driveshafts, which include a clutch and load, for power transmission purposes. The power transmission system considered is suitable for a wide variety of applications in which the load is coupled directly to the clutch and hence to the ‘long’ driveshaft. Owing to the length of the shaft and relatively pointwise location of the clutch and load, a distributed—lumped (D—L) description of the arrangement is investigated. This enables the behaviour of the dispersed driveline shaft to be ‘adequately’ replicated along with the connecting elements. A discrete modelling approach is adopted and analysis and simulated response characteristics are presented, thereby validating the technique. Existing results on clutch judder are referred to and the interaction between judder and the driveshaft torsional oscillation is commented upon.
