Short summary
Helicopter engines often generate rapidly changing torque under different flight conditions, which can increase vibration in the transmission system and affect reliability. This study examines how these variations influence system behavior in typical scenarios. The results show that the rate of torque change, rather than its magnitude, plays a key role. Faster changes significantly amplify vibration in critical components, providing guidance for improving system safety and durability.
