...Xiaolan Ai Fig. 13 Bearing LRF as a function of accumulative inclusion length in the stressed volume Figure 14 compiles all simulation results, including both validations and parametric studies, in a LRF versus L insv plot. The half open symbols are for parametric studies...

.... The inclusion of the effect of adhesion, which was accomplished with the Lennard-Jones potential, required a special procedure. This configuration is of general theoretical interest in the understanding of adhesion. It has also been suggested as a possible design for a microswitch contact because...

... of the Viscosity of Olive Oil," Philos. Trans. R. Soc. London, 177 , pp. 157-234) of p = 0 and p n = 0 (Dirichlet and Neumann conditions on pressure) at the gas-liquid interface do not allow for the inclusion of a contact line model, a phenomenon that is important in the inception of aeration. Hence, the standard...

...Trevor S. Slack; Nihar Raje; Farshid Sadeghi; Gary Doll; Michael R. Hoeprich Inclusions are common in bearing materials and are a primary site for subsurface fatigue crack initiation in rolling element bearings. This paper presents a new approach for computing the pressure, film thickness...

...Nihar Raje; Farshid Sadeghi; Richard G. Rateick, Jr.; Michael R. Hoeprich Inclusions are the primary sites for subsurface fatigue crack initiation in bearing contacts. To understand the mechanisms of subsurface crack nucleation under contact loading, a detailed description of the stress field...
