Materials Science Aims and scope

Abstract

On the basis of a model used to compute the residual durability of rolling surfaces in the framework of linear fracture mechanics, we estimate the durability of ShKh15 bearing steel under the conditions of prevailing influence of lubrication. To obtain experimental data necessary for computation, we performed the tests on cyclic fatigue crack-growth resistance of steel both in the as-received state and after the standard procedure of heat treatment and constructed the corresponding kinetic diagrams of fatigue fracture. Numerical analysis enabled us to establish some regularities of the process of surface pitting induced by lubricated rolling contact.
