Abstract:Cylindrical roller bearings used in traction motors for railway vehicles are used at high rotational speeds and under light loads. Under these operating conditions, the life due to cage wear is much shorter than the life due to raceway fatigue. Therefore, bearing life can be extended by reducing cage wear. The authors thought that to reduce cage wear, it is necessary to establish a dynamic analysis method for the contact between the roller and the cage, and to identify the wear mode of the cage. If cage wear f… 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.
