The nonlinear response of a multi-degree-of-freedom (M-D-O-F) gear model subject to combined periodic and stochastic excitations is investigated by an efficient linearization scheme, accounting for the time-variant stiffness, and the backlash feature involved in the model. The steady-state response...
