Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.ElastoBacklash
This element consists of a backlash element connected in series to a spring and damper element which are connected in parallel. The spring constant shall be non-zero, otherwise the component cannot be used.
In combination with components IdealGear, the ElastoBacklash model can be used to model a gear box with backlash, elasticity and damping.
During initialization, the backlash characteristic is replaced by a continuous approximation in the backlash region, in order to reduce problems during initialization, especially for inverse models.
If the backlash b is smaller as 1e-10 rad (especially, if b=0), then the backlash is ignored and the component reduces to a spring/damper element in parallel.
In the backlash region (-b/2 ≤ flange_b.phi - flange_a.phi - phi_rel0 ≤ b/2) no torque is exerted (flange_b.tau = 0). Outside of this region, contact is present and the contact torque is basically computed with a linear spring/damper characteristic:
desiredContactTorque = c*phi_contact + d*der(phi_contact)
phi_contact = phi_rel - phi_rel0 - b/2 if phi_rel - phi_rel0 > b/2
= phi_rel - phi_rel0 + b/2 if phi_rel - phi_rel0 < -b/2
phi_rel = flange_b.phi - flange_a.phi;
This torque characteristic leads to the following difficulties:
In the literature there are several proposals to fix problem (2). However, there seems to be no proposal to avoid sticking. For this reason, the most simple approach is used in the ElastoBacklash model, to fix both problems by slight changes to the linear spring/damper characteristic:
// Torque characteristic when phi_rel > phi_rel0
if phi_rel - phi_rel0 < b/2 then
tau_c = 0; // spring torque
tau_d = 0; // damper torque
flange_b.tau = 0;
else
tau_c = c*(phi_rel - phi_rel0); // spring torque
tau_d = d*der(phi_rel); // damper torque
flange_b.tau = if tau_c + tau_d ≤ 0 then 0 else tau_c + min( tau_c, tau_d );
end if;
Note, when sticking would occur (tau_c + tau_d ≤ 0), then the contact torque is explicitly set to zero. The "min(tau_c, tau_d)" part in the if-expression, limits the damping torque when it is pushing. This means that at the start of the contact (phi_rel - phi_rel0 = b/2), the damping torque is zero and is continuous. The effect of both modifications is that the absolute value of the damping torque is always limited by the absolute value of the spring torque: |tau_d| ≤ |tau_c|.
In the next figure, a typical simulation with the ElastoBacklash model is shown (Examples.Backlash) where the different effects are visualized:

Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.BearingFriction
This element describes Coulomb friction in bearings, i.e., a frictional torque acting between a flange and the housing. The positive sliding friction torque "tau" has to be defined by table "tau_pos" as function of the absolute angular velocity "w". E.g.
w | tau
---+-----
0 | 0
1 | 2
2 | 5
3 | 8
gives the following table:
tau_pos = [0, 0; 1, 2; 2, 5; 3, 8];
Currently, only linear interpolation in the table is supported. Outside of the table, extrapolation through the last two table entries is used. It is assumed that the negative sliding friction force has the same characteristic with negative values. Friction is modelled in the following way:
When the absolute angular velocity "w" is not zero, the friction torque is a function of w and of a constant normal force. This dependency is defined via table tau_pos and can be determined by measurements, e.g., by driving the gear with constant velocity and measuring the needed motor torque (= friction torque).
When the absolute angular velocity becomes zero, the elements connected by the friction element become stuck, i.e., the absolute angle remains constant. In this phase the friction torque is calculated from a torque balance due to the requirement, that the absolute acceleration shall be zero. The elements begin to slide when the friction torque exceeds a threshold value, called the maximum static friction torque, computed via:
maximum_static_friction = peak * sliding_friction(w=0) (peak >= 1)
This procedure is implemented in a "clean" way by state events and leads to continuous/discrete systems of equations if friction elements are dynamically coupled which have to be solved by appropriate numerical methods. The method is described in:
More precise friction models take into account the elasticity of the material when the two elements are "stuck", as well as other effects, like hysteresis. This has the advantage that the friction element can be completely described by a differential equation without events. The drawback is that the system becomes stiff (about 10-20 times slower simulation) and that more material constants have to be supplied which requires more sophisticated identification. For more details, see the following references, especially (Armstrong and Canudas de Witt 1996):

Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.Brake
This component models a brake, i.e., a component where a frictional torque is acting between the housing and a flange and a controlled normal force presses the flange to the housing in order to increase friction. The normal force fn has to be provided as input signal f_normalized in a normalized form (0 ≤ f_normalized ≤ 1), fn = fn_max*f_normalized, where fn_max has to be provided as parameter. Friction in the brake is modelled in the following way:
When the absolute angular velocity "w" is not zero, the friction torque is a function of the velocity dependent friction coefficient mue(w) , of the normal force "fn", and of a geometry constant "cgeo" which takes into account the geometry of the device and the assumptions on the friction distributions:
frictional_torque = cgeo * mue(w) * fn
Typical values of coefficients of friction:
dry operation : mue = 0.2 .. 0.4
operating in oil: mue = 0.05 .. 0.1
When plates are pressed together, where ri is the inner radius, ro is the outer radius and N is the number of friction interfaces, the geometry constant is calculated in the following way under the assumption of a uniform rate of wear at the interfaces:
cgeo = N*(r0 + ri)/2
The positive part of the friction characteristic mue(w), w >= 0, is defined via table mue_pos (first column = w, second column = mue). Currently, only linear interpolation in the table is supported.
When the absolute angular velocity becomes zero, the elements connected by the friction element become stuck, i.e., the absolute angle remains constant. In this phase the friction torque is calculated from a torque balance due to the requirement, that the absolute acceleration shall be zero. The elements begin to slide when the friction torque exceeds a threshold value, called the maximum static friction torque, computed via:
frictional_torque = peak * cgeo * mue(w=0) * fn (peak >= 1)
This procedure is implemented in a "clean" way by state events and leads to continuous/discrete systems of equations if friction elements are dynamically coupled. The method is described in:
More precise friction models take into account the elasticity of the material when the two elements are "stuck", as well as other effects, like hysteresis. This has the advantage that the friction element can be completely described by a differential equation without events.

Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.Clutch
This component models a clutch, i.e., a component with two flanges where friction is present between the two flanges and these flanges are pressed together via a normal force. The normal force fn has to be provided as input signal f_normalized in a normalized form (0 ≤ f_normalized ≤ 1), fn = fn_max*f_normalized, where fn_max has to be provided as parameter. Friction in the clutch is modelled in the following way:
When the relative angular velocity is not zero, the friction torque is a function of the velocity dependent friction coefficient mue(w_rel) , of the normal force "fn", and of a geometry constant "cgeo" which takes into account the geometry of the device and the assumptions on the friction distributions:
frictional_torque = cgeo * mue(w_rel) * fn
Typical values of coefficients of friction:
dry operation : mue = 0.2 .. 0.4
operating in oil: mue = 0.05 .. 0.1
When plates are pressed together, where ri is the inner radius, ro is the outer radius and N is the number of friction interfaces, the geometry constant is calculated in the following way under the assumption of a uniform rate of wear at the interfaces:
cgeo = N*(r0 + ri)/2
The positive part of the friction characteristic mue(w_rel), w_rel >= 0, is defined via table mue_pos (first column = w_rel, second column = mue). Currently, only linear interpolation in the table is supported.
When the relative angular velocity becomes zero, the elements connected by the friction element become stuck, i.e., the relative angle remains constant. In this phase the friction torque is calculated from a torque balance due to the requirement, that the relative acceleration shall be zero. The elements begin to slide when the friction torque exceeds a threshold value, called the maximum static friction torque, computed via:
frictional_torque = peak * cgeo * mue(w_rel=0) * fn (peak >= 1)
This procedure is implemented in a "clean" way by state events and leads to continuous/discrete systems of equations if friction elements are dynamically coupled. The method is described in:
More precise friction models take into account the elasticity of the material when the two elements are "stuck", as well as other effects, like hysteresis. This has the advantage that the friction element can be completely described by a differential equation without events. The drawback is that the system becomes stiff (about 10-20 times slower simulation) and that more material constants have to be supplied which requires more sophisticated identification. For more details, see the following references, especially (Armstrong and Canudas de Witt 1996):

Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.OneWayClutch
This component models a one-way clutch, i.e., a component with two flanges where friction is present between the two flanges and these flanges are pressed together via a normal force. These flanges maybe sliding with respect to each other Parallel connection of ClutchCombi and of FreeWheel. The element is introduced to resolve the ambiguity of the constraint torques of the elements.
A one-way-clutch is an element where a clutch is connected in parallel to a free wheel. This special element is provided, because such a parallel connection introduces an ambiguity into the model (the constraint torques are not uniquely defined when both elements are stuck) and this element resolves it by introducing one constraint torque and not two.
Note, initial values have to be chosen for the model, such that the relative speed of the one-way-clutch >= 0. Otherwise, the configuration is physically not possible and an error occurs.
The normal force fn has to be provided as input signal f_normalized in a normalized form (0 ≤ f_normalized ≤ 1), fn = fn_max*f_normalized, where fn_max has to be provided as parameter. Friction in the clutch is modelled in the following way:
When the relative angular velocity is positive, the friction torque is a function of the velocity dependent friction coefficient mue(w_rel) , of the normal force "fn", and of a geometry constant "cgeo" which takes into account the geometry of the device and the assumptions on the friction distributions:
frictional_torque = cgeo * mue(w_rel) * fn

The gear is ideal, i.e., it does not have inertia, elasticity, damping or backlash. If these effects have to be considered, the gear has to be connected to other elements in an appropriate way.

Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.LossyGear
This component models the gear ratio and the losses of a standard gear box in a reliable way including the stuck phases that may occur at zero speed. The gear boxes that can be handeled are fixed in the ground or on a moving support, have one input and one output shaft, and are essentially described by the equations:
flange_a.phi = i*flange_b.phi;
-(flange_b.tau - tau_bf_b) = i*eta_mf*(flange_a.tau - tau_bf_a);
// or -flange_b.tau = i*eta_mf*(flange_a.tau - tau_bf_a - tau_bf_b/(i*eta_mf));
where
The loss terms "eta_mf", "tau_bf_a" and "tau_bf_b" are functions of the absolute value of the input shaft speed w_a and of the energy flow direction. They are defined by parameter lossTable[:,5] where the columns of this table have the following meaning:
| |w_a| | eta_mf1 | eta_mf2 | |tau_bf1| | |tau_bf2| |
| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... |
| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... |
with
| |w_a| | Absolute value of angular velocity of input shaft flange_a |
| eta_mf1 | Mesh efficiency in case that flange_a is driving |
| eta_mf2 | Mesh efficiency in case that flange_b is driving |
| |tau_bf1| | Absolute resultant bearing friction torque with respect to flange_a
in case that flange_a is driving (= |tau_bf_a*eta_mf1 + tau_bf_b/i|) |
| |tau_bf2| | Absolute resultant bearing friction torque with respect to flange_a
in case that flange_b is driving (= |tau_bf_a/eta_mf2 + tau_bf_b/i|) |
With these variables, the mesh efficiency and the bearing friction are formally defined as:
if (flange_a.tau - tau_bf_a)*w_a > 0 or
(flange_a.tau - tau_bf_a) == 0 and w_a > 0 then
eta_mf := eta_mf1
tau_bf := tau_bf1
elseif (flange_a.tau - tau_bf_a)*w_a < 0 or
(flange_a.tau - tau_bf_a) == 0 and w_a < 0 then
eta_mf := 1/eta_mf2
tau_bf := tau_bf2
else // w_a == 0
eta_mf and tau_bf are computed such that der(w_a) = 0
end if;
-flange_b.tau = i*(eta_mf*flange_a.tau - tau_bf);
Note, that the losses are modeled in a physically meaningful way taking into account that at zero speed the movement may be locked due to the friction in the gear teeth and/or in the bearings. Due to this important property, this component can be used in situations where the combination of the components Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.IdealGear and Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.GearEfficiency will fail because, e.g., chattering occurs when using the Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.GearEfficiency model.

Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.IdealPlanetary
The IdealPlanetary gear box is an ideal gear without inertia, elasticity, damping or backlash consisting of an inner sun wheel, an outer ring wheel and a planet wheel located between sun and ring wheel. The bearing of the planet wheel shaft is fixed in the planet carrier. The component can be connected to other elements at the sun, ring and/or carrier flanges. It is not possible to connect to the planet wheel. If inertia shall not be neglected, the sun, ring and carrier inertias can be easily added by attaching inertias (= model Inertia) to the corresponding connectors. The inertias of the planet wheels are always neglected.
The icon of the planetary gear signals that the sun and carrier flanges are on the left side and the ring flange is on the right side of the gear box. However, this component is generic and is valid independantly how the flanges are actually placed (e.g., sun wheel may be placed on the right side instead on the left side in reality).
The ideal planetary gearbox is uniquely defined by the ratio of the number of ring teeth zr with respect to the number of sun teeth zs. For example, if there are 100 ring teeth and 50 sun teeth then ratio = zr/zs = 2. The number of planet teeth zp has to fulfill the following relationship:
zp := (zr - zs) / 2
Therefore, in the above example zp = 25 is required.
According to the overall convention, the positive direction of all vectors, especially the absolute angular velocities and cut-torques in the flanges, are along the axis vector displayed in the icon.

Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.InitializeFlange
This component is used to optionally initialize the angle, speed, and/or angular acceleration of the flange to which this component is connected. Via parameters use_phi_start, use_w_start, use_a_start the corresponding input signals phi_start, w_start, a_start are conditionally activated. If an input is activated, the corresponding flange property is initialized with the input value at start time.
For example, if "use_phi_start = true", then flange.phi is initialized with the value of the input signal "phi_start" at the start time.
Additionally, it is optionally possible to define the "StateSelect" attribute of the flange angle and the flange speed via paramater "stateSelection".
This component is especially useful when the initial values of a flange shall be set according to reference signals of a controller that are provided via a signal bus.

Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.RelativeStates
Usually, the absolute angle and the absolute angular velocity of Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Components.Inertia models are used as state variables. In some circumstances, relative quantities are better suited, e.g., because it may be easier to supply initial values. In such cases, model RelativeStates allows the definition of state variables in the following way:
An example is given in the next figure
Here, the relative angle and the relative angular velocity between the two inertias are used as state variables. Additionally, the simulator selects either the absolute angle and absolute angular velocity of model inertia1 or of model inertia2 as state variables.
