Dynamical modelling of the belt drives - a new supplementation

Abstract

This paper investigates the dynamical modelling of the belt drives, where we wish to introduce an idea of a possible new supplementation. As we know that, different type of belts (flat belts, poli-V belts, timed belts, V-belts, etc.) that are designed into the considered drivelines, show different dynamical behaviour, maybe have different instability ranges beside the same design parameters as well. This is the main reason why this supplementation is well-founded, because the former literatures took into consideration only the system of free belt itself as the complete system.
