Synopsis: This bookcomprehensively presents the computational design of rolling bearings dealingwith many interdisciplinary difficult working fields. They encompasselastohydrodynamics (EHD), Hertzian contact theory, oil-film thickness in elastohydrodynamiclubrication (EHL), bearing dynamics, tribology of surface textures, fatigue failuremechanisms, fatigue lifetimes of rolling bearings and lubricating greases, Weibull distribution,rotor balancing, and airborne noises (NVH) in the rolling bearings. Furthermore, the readers are provided with hands-on essential formulas based onthe up-to-date DIN ISO norms and helpful examples for computational design ofrolling bearings. The topics are intended for undergraduate and graduate students inmechanical and material engineering, research scientists, and practicingengineers who want to understand the interactions between these working fieldsand to know how to design the rolling bearings for automotive industry and manyother industries.
