Ata Donmez studies the vibration and noise behavior of gear systems, particularly the rattling and impact noise that occurs in vehicle drivetrains (including electric vehicle gear trains) due to backlash, torque fluctuations, and manufacturing errors. This work combines mathematical modeling of gear dynamics with experimental testing to predict and reduce unwanted noise and mechanical impacts. The research also touches on vibration isolation systems used to reduce transmitted vibrations in mechanical structures.
