Abstract

Purpose

The aim of this paper is to present a theoretical model to simulate the dynamic behavior of a spur gear, taking into account its ball bearings defects.

Design/methodology/approach

The proposed model is based on the implicit Newmark‐β with Newton‐Raphson numerical integration technique in order to analyze the impact of the worn bearings on the non linear dynamic behavior of one stage spur gear transmission system.

Findings

The dynamic behavior of spur gear is studied taking into account ball bearings defects thanks to the proposed model.

Originality/value

A new numerical model is proposed to simulate the dynamic behavior of rotating spur gear system taking into account both waviness and backlash defects.
