Rolling bearings are one of the most widely used components in industrial machinery. If
suitably mounted, loaded, lubricated and isolated from contamination, rolling contact fatigue …

The power generation from wind farms is growing very fast all over the world, and wind
energy is now playing the most significant role to aid sustainable development since the last …

The purpose of this investigation was to study microstructural evolution leading to the
formation of wear debris and white etching areas (WEA) in the subsurface of AISI 52100 …

The premature failure of large bearings of the type used in wind turbines, possibly through a
mechanism called “white-structure flaking”, has triggered many studies of microstructural …

A semi-analytical model is first presented that thoroughly examines stress distribution
patterns in inhomogeneous materials within a quarter space: a scenario of great significance …

GCr15 bearing steel with different initial spheroidizing microstructures was obtained by four
different hot rolling and spheroidizing annealing processes. The effects of the initial …

The composition evolution and deformation of different non-metallic inclusions in a bearing
steel during hot rolling were investigated by the automatic detection and the improved non …

The effect of cerium addition on the rolling contact fatigue (RCF) life of a high-carbon
chromium bearing steel was studied using laboratory experiments. The RCF life (L10 and …

The connection between the cleanliness of 52100 type bearing steels and their reliability
has been well documented. Most research over the past 30 years has focused on sensitive …

Laboratory heating experiments with a varied holding time of GCr15 bearing steels at 1498
K were performed to study the transformation of inclusions in solid GCr15 bearing steels …
