Based on this, a mapping path from the key structural elements of large-scale aviation planetary mechanism to the system reliability indexes is established, and then a new method of reliability-driven multi-objective optimization design for planetary mechanism structural dimensions is proposed. The fatigue load history of the gear teeth under the coupling of global elastic behavior of the system is calculated using a hierarchical finite element method, and the fatigue strength distribution of gear teeth is fitted based on the gear low circumference fatigue test with the minimum order statistics transformation method to provide cost-effective load and strength input variables for the system reliability prediction model.

This paper takes the heavy helicopter planetary mechanism as the research object, and aims to improve the fatigue reliability level of the system. As the foundation and core of various heavy aircraft transmission systems, the reliability level of large-scale aviation planetary mechanism restricts the economic affordability and service safety for the aircraft to a great extent.
