Abstract:This paper proposes an improved finite element dynamic model to analyze the vibration response of a rolling bearing system. The vibration responses of defect free and defective polypropylene (PP) bearings are analyzed using the finite element analysis and compared with the experimental results using the in house developed bearing fatigue test rig. The boundary conditions of this model are imposed to ensure an adequate homogeneity with the experimental apparatus. This study considers the viscoelastic property o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
