  • Taking the flexible spline coupling as the object, a three-dimensional contact finite unit model was used to simulate the deformation characteristics and contact state changes of the spline. Guided by the simulation results, an analytical model for predicting the hysteresis behavior of tooth coupling was proposed by introducing three-dimensional contact friction unit at the meshing points of each tooth surface and using the force balance relationship and numerical iteration method. The proposed model was verified, and the hysteresis behavior and contact characteristics of the coupling structure were analyzed by using the proposed model. The results showed that the proposed model can fully consider the contact-separation, viscous-slip and their axial distribution characteristics. Compared with the finite element model, the proposed model can accurately predict the hysteresis characteristics of the structure and improve the computational efficiency by 3 orders of magnitude. The reduction of structural stiffness was attirbutable to the reduction of contact area of meshing tooth under shear load. And, the sliding of contact surface led to the internal damping, of which axial sliding had the most significant contribution. The hysteresis characteristic of spline coupling was more sensitive to the change of tooth width and torque, and was less affected by the friction coefficient.
