NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL MODAL ANALYSIS OF GEAR WHEEL

Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Cold orBital Forging of a 16MnCr5 Alloy Spur Bevel Gear

The purpose of this research is to analyze the forging of bevel gears based on conventional forging method with material number 1.7131 with finite element method by means of SUPER FORGE software and to compare it with experimental cold orbital forging results.After doing simulation of conventional forging and obtaining press tonnage due to orbital forging method with DEFORM software, orbital fo...

Multi-body Dynamics and Modal Analysis of Compliant Gear Bodies

This paper extends the multi-body dynamics modelling strategy for rigid gears to include compliant gear bodies in multi-mesh transmissions. Only external, fixed center, helical or spur gears are considered. This formulation combines distributed gear mesh stiffness and gear blank compliance models in a multi-body dynamics framework resulting in a set of non-linear differential equations with tim...

Experimental Modal Analysis

Experimental Modal Analysis

SOUND AND VIBRATION/JANUARY 2001 Often times, people ask some simple questions regarding modal analysis and how structures vibrate. Most times, it is impossible to describe this simply and some of the basic underlying theory needs to be addressed in order to fully explain some of these concepts. However, many times the theory is just a little too much to handle and some of the concepts can be d...

Damage identification of structures using experimental modal analysis and continuous wavelet transform

Abstract: Modal analysis is a powerful technique for understanding the behavior and performance of structures. Modal analysis can be conducted via artificial excitation, e.g. shaker or instrument hammer excitation. Input force and output responses are measured. That is normally referred to as experimental modal analysis (EMA). EMA consists of three steps: data acquisition, system identificatio...
