Rolling Contact Fatigue

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Structural Integrity Assessment of Engineering Components Under Cyclic Contact

Part of the book series: Structural Integrity ((STIN,volume 9))

  • 348 Accesses

Abstract

This chapter contains the results of investigations of the fracture processes (paths of crack propagation) for bodies under the conditions of rolling (rolling with sliding). These results were obtained by using the model proposed in Chap. 2, the solutions of singular integral equations for the corresponding problems, and also the results of evaluation of lifetime under the conditions of contact fatigue. We study and describe the specific features of formation of the typical defects usually observed in rolling bodies, such as pitting, spalling, squat (“dark spot”), checks depending on the operating parameters of the analyzed rolling couple and the characteristics of cyclic crack growth resistance of the corresponding materials. We present examples of evaluation of the residual contact durability of rail, wheel, and roll steels according to the criteria of pitting and spalling formation. The contact fatigue curves (i.e., the dependences of the number Nf of rolling cycles on the maximum value of contact pressure p0) are plotted by using the criteria of pitting or spalling formation on the rolling surfaces. We also give some recommendations useful for the engineering practice.

Notes

  1. 1.

    However, for a given direction of motion of the counterbody from the right to the left (Fig. 4.15), the attainment of high pressures (large r) of the lubricant in cracks inclined at small angles β (β ≈ π/6) is unlikely.
