In this model, the desired functions are expressed bystate-transit-diagrams(ST-diagrams) and design space is represented byqualitative-state-curves(QS-curves). The first design idea, called seeds idea, is proposed by thedesigner and then is abstracted into QS-curves. The qualitative simulation is implemented based onthe QS-curves. By changing the motion of acting parts, the connection of parts and the motion ofdriving part, new design ideas are generated. With this model, a series of new design ideas derivedfrom the seeds idea can be achieved.展开更多

CFNA iswidely used in mechanical dynamics for periodic solution of second-order original differentialequations (SODE) with periodic time-variant coefficients. The principle of the algorithm is todiscretize the motion period into many short time intervals, so the coefficient matrices of theequation set are regarded as constant in a time interval. Defects are found in the originalalgorithm in treating the modal coordinates at the two end-nodes and important modifications to thedefects is made for the algorithm. The modified algorithm is finally used to solve the dynamicproblem of a three-ring planetary gear transmission.展开更多
