Abstract:Rolling-contact-fatigue life is a key characteristic of bearings. Reliable bearings are expected to have long L10 life as a bearing performance index, as well as long commercial life without unexpected premature failure on any pieces of bearings in use. It has long been known that cleanliness is an important material factor to determine the fatigue life. The aforementioned early failure could be caused by macroscopic inclusions, which have small density of presence in recent clean steel and, thus, detection fo… Show more
