Abstract
This paper conducts an analytical investigation of the dynamic response characteristics of a two-stage coupled series system (TsCSS) with a planetary gear transmission (PGT), consisting of dual-power branches. An improved incremental harmonic balance (IHB) method, based on the arc length extension technique, is proposed. The results are compared with those of the numerical integration method, in order to verify the feasibility and efficiency of the improved method. Afterwards, the multi-scale perturbation (MsP) method is applied to the proposed TsCSS. The frequency response equations of the primary resonance, subharmonic resonance and superharmonic resonance, are solved in order to generate the frequency response characteristic curves of the planetary transmission system. A comparison between the results obtained by the MsP method and the numerical integration method demonstrates that the former is ideal and credible in most of the regions. Considering the parameters of TsCSS excitation frequency and damping, the nonlinear response characteristics of steady-state motion are mutually converted. The impact of the time-varying parameters and nonlinear deenthing caused by the gear teeth clearance on the amplitude–frequency characteristics of the TsCSS components, is finally studied.
