柔性对多体系统中铰接副磨损的影响

通过集成柔性多体动力学与磨损计算程序,提出了一种用于对柔性多体系统中间隙铰接副部位的磨损进行了预测的方法.基于绝对节点坐标方法(ANCF)建立了柔性部件的多体动力学模型,引入Lankanrani和Nikravesh提出的连续接触力模型计算间隙铰接副部分的法向接触力,采用Lu Gre摩擦模型计算切向摩擦力,并利用基于Archard模型的迭代计算程序计算磨损.为了提高计算效率,引入了并行计算策略.最后,通过对一个含柔性连杆的曲柄滑块机构机构进行仿真计算,发现当考虑部件的柔性时,得到的间隙处的冲击力会大幅降低,预测的磨损量也随之降低,并且随着机构柔性的增强,这种效果更为明显.

Effects of Mechanical Flexibility on Joint Wear in Multibody Systems with Different Flexibilities

By integrating wear prediction with flexible multibody dynamics, the wear at the revolute clearance joint in flexible mechanical systems was predicted. The flexible component was modeled by using absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF)-based element. The contact force in the clearance joint was calculated using continuous contact force model. The clearance joint was modeled as a dry contact pair, in which the continuous contact force model proposed by Lankanrani and Nikravesh was applied to evaluate the normal contact force, and the friction effect was considered using the LuGre friction model. The calculation of wear was performed by an iterative wear prediction procedure based on Archard's wear model. In order to improve computational efficiency,the parallel computation procedure was introduced. Using this approach,a planar slider-crank mechanism including a flexible rod and clearance joint was numerically investigated as a demonstrative example. Furthermore, the effects of the flexibility of the mechanism and the clearance size on the wear at clearance joint were also studied. The results show that mechanical flexibility not only highly deadened the impacts at the revolute clearance joint, but also weakened the joint wear. Furthermore, this influence was more obvious when the mechanism had a higher flexibility.
