5-DOF Dynamic Modeling of Rolling Bearing with Local Defect considering Comprehensive Stiffness under Isothermal Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication by Pengfei Yan, Changfeng Yan, Kai Wang, Fengtao Wang, Lixiao Wu

“…The sliding of the rolling element in the load zone would cause the bearing’s wear and failure at high speed under elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) condition. Aiming at this phenomenon, considering lubrication oil film, time-varying displacement, radial clearance, and comprehensive stiffness, a five degree-of-freedom (DOF) dynamic model of rolling bearing with local defect is proposed based on isothermal EHL and which is validated by experimental data. …”
