Abstract

Abstract : Dynamic reliability analysis of a filtering reducer is performed by accounting for discrete shocks from the space environment. Gears are considered as the lumped mass and meanwhile the meshing between different gears is equivalent to a dynamic system consisting of springs and dampers during construction of the dynamic model. The Newmark method is employed to resolve differential equations, and then the additional acceleration could be obtained, caused by shocks to the filtering reducer. Dynamic reliability analysis is conducted with the help of the Simulink tool for the outputs. The results are hopefully useful for spacecraft mechanism design.
