Prediction of micropitting damage in gear teeth contacts considering the concurrent effects of surface fatigue and mild wear

TL;DR: In this paper, an existing general micropitting model, which accounts for mixed lubrication conditions, stress history, and fatigue damage accumulation, is adapted to deal with transient contact conditions that exist during meshing of gear teeth.

Further understanding of rolling contact fatigue in rolling element bearings - A review

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an overview of such alterations, their properties, formation mechanisms and impact on bearing failure, as well as how operating conditions such as pressure, temperature and running time impact them during RCF.

The origins of white etching cracks and their significance to rolling bearing failures

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new theory on the origins and significance of white etching cracks, and provided systematic experimental evidence in support of this theory through rolling contact fatigue tests performed with AISI 52100 bearing steel specimens on a triple-disc machine over a wide range of contact conditions.

The Influence of Slide–Roll Ratio on the Extent of Micropitting Damage in Rolling–Sliding Contacts Pertinent to Gear Applications

TL;DR: In this article, a triple-disc rolling contact fatigue rig is used to experimentally study the influence of the contact slide-roll ratio (SRR) on the progression of micropitting damage in samples made of case-carburised gear steel.
