Abstract
A gear transmission system such as a gear train is a series system in sense of reliability evaluation, while it is different from a traditional series system such as a chain. Therefore, the conventional series system reliability model is not appropriate for gear transmission system. Based on the time-dependent configuration and the time-dependent loading path of a gear train, system specific reliability modeling technique is presented, by which a gear train is taken as a time-dependent series system, consisting of different components (gear teeth) in different time intervals. To illustrate the application of the reliability analysis method, several time-dependent series system reliability models are developed for different types of gear trains, the reliability estimation results are compared with those obtained by traditional series system reliability model.
