On the Effects of Disc Deformation on the Tilting-Induced Vibration of a Spline-Guided Spinning Disc with an Axial-Fixed Boundary

Abstract

This paper investigates the effects of disc deformation on the tilting-induced vibration of a splined spinning disc with axial-fixed boundaries.The purpose is to provide an intuitive interpretation of the vibration variance of the wet clutch system with different deformed discs. First, tilting models of flat and deformed discs are derived by introducing distinctive shape functions. Additionally, the inner spline interface is chosen as the friction boundary. Then, an impact model between friction pairs and the rigid boundary is established by adopting Hertz’s contact theory. Finally, the dynamic equations are solved via numerical methods, and the responses are analyzed in both time and frequency domains. The deformation can increase the nonlinearity of the dynamic response of the spinning disc. Moreover, the effects of increasing the impulse force and reducing the boundary distance are quite similar; they both increase the motion intensity.
