Abstract: Using the method of conformal mapping, an alternate solution is obtained for the line contact deformation of a cylinder loaded between two flat plates. In this method, the elastic deformation ...

Abstract: A comprehensive analytical and experimental study of the effect of misalignment on load distribution and fatigue life of tapered roller bearings is presented. Included are the effects of truncation ...

Abstract: Equations and their derivations for finding the radial and axial stiffnesses of a single-row tapered roller bearing, assuming a rigid shaft and housing, are given for any case of combined ...

Abstract: Various line contact deformation equations used in roller bearing technology are analyzed. Many of these deformation equations, primarily involving plane strain, are shown to be special cases of ...
