This paper deals with the problem of getting dynamic characteristics in complex mechanical multi-body system. Based on the MFBD (Multi-Flexible-Body Dynamics) technology, the rigid-flexible coupling dynamic simulation method is proposed, and then the method is applied to the planetary gear transmission. The results show that the dynamic stress distribution of planetary gear can be obtained to determine the dangerous location, and the dynamic response characteristics are more obvious. Then the simulation model of planetary gear transmission with broken tooth is established, the fault feature extraction in time-frequency domain is carried out using the acceleration signal. In addition, industrial data is also used to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
