A Study of Rolling Contact Fatigue in Bearings with Rolling Elements

Abstract

Abstract: Excessive noise levels from wheels and brakes, tire wear levels, bearing hub wear, bearing humming, undercarriage noise, and other factors are considered in this study. According to the study findings, better design and fatigue life prediction are urgently needed to prevent accidents. Because the hub assembly on the left side of the vehicle experiences the most deformation and has the shortest fatigue life, the behavior of the wheel hub ball bearing under duty cycle loading conditions affects deformations and bearing life.
