Defects in the bearings greatly affect vibrations and performances of rotating transmission
systems. Moreover, most previous works estimated the defect shape as a regular shape …

The trend toward intelligent monitoring and industry 4.0 has attracted more attention to the
performance of intelligent bearings with integrated sensors. Compared with the standard …

Surface defects, including dents, spalls, and cracks, for rolling element bearings are the
most common faults in rotating machinery. The accurate model for the time-varying …

This paper proposes a new numerical method for the tribo-dynamic analysis of the CRB by
coupling the roller–raceway mixed EHL model and the motion equations of the CRB …

Crack initiation and propagation directions on the raceway surface of cylindrical roller
bearings (CRBs) can generate different forms of excitation patterns and affect the vibration …

Local fault failures could greatly affect the vibrations of cylindrical roller bearings (CRBs).
However, most previous works defined the fault surface as the smooth ones, whose actual …

For more than three decades, vibration monitoring by accelerometers has been a common
technique in the health monitoring of bearings and rotating machines. These sensors are …

In this paper, the roller bearings partial wear due to extreme inclined load caused by poor
installation is investigated. First, based on non-Hertz contact theory, a quasi-static model of …

The modeling of early spalling defects in cylindrical roller bearings (CRB) is a challenging
problem in fault diagnosis. Due to the absence of prominent" drop-in" excitation, accurately …

An experimental characterization method for the non-conforming contact with random
defects is developed in this paper. The method consists of the mechanics modeling and the …
