In this study, we attempt to analyze the influence of different excitation factors on the dynamic behavior of a gear transmission system in a braiding machine. In order to observe nonlinear characteristics, a mathematical model is established with a six-degrees-of-freedom gear system for consideration of multiple excitation factors. Iterative results are used to study the nonlinear characteristics of the gear system with respect to contact temperature, varying levels of friction, and disturbance of yarn tension using bifurcation diagrams, maximum Lyapunov exponents, phase diagrams, Poincare maps, and the power spectrum. The numerical results show that excitation factors such as temperature and surface friction, among others, have considerable influence on the nonlinear characteristics of the gear system in a braiding machine, and the model is evaluated to show the key regions of sensitivity. The analysis of associated parameters can be helpful in the design and control of braiding machines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
