- Book Synopsis
- Rolling Bearings presents the most relevant damage modes in rolling bearings, with particular emphasis on surface, describing their basic mechanisms, their competitive nature, and the way to model these damaging mechanisms. It includes traditional bearing life calculations, as well as a new formulation separating the surface from the subsurface survival.After describing basic aspects of rolling bearing operation, the book then covers classical bearing life models and new aspects of bearing life, including the separation of surface from sub-surface survival and some application examples to hybrid bearings. It discusses detailed lubrication aspects of micro-geometry, including partial lubrication, dry contact and thermal basic aspects. The book devotes separate chapters to exploring basic damage modes, including mild-wear, surface distress, fatigue-wear, particle entrapment and damage, among others.Written for mechanical, aerospace, industrial engineers, and tribologists, this book will also interest engineering students and researchers studying tribology, machine design, and mechanics.Accompanying MATLAB¬ and OCTAVE program files are available for readers to download on the book's webpage at Routledge.com.
- About The Author
- Professor Morales-Espejel is the Principal Scientist at SKF Research and Technology Development, the Netherlands. He is also Chair Professor at LaMCoS, INSA de Lyon, France. As well as Visiting Professor at Imperial College London, UK. He received a PhD in Tribology from the University of Cambridge, UK, supervised by Dr. J.A. Greenwood, within Professor K.L. Johnson's research group. He holds a "Habilitation `a Diriger des Recherches (INSA-Lyon)". Professor Morales-Espejel has 10 years of experience as a university lecturer and more than 25 years of experience in studying the tribology of rolling bearings. He is the author of more than 100 scientific papers and several book chapters. In addition, he is the Associated Editor of Tribology Transactions and IMechE Part J. The research interests of Professor Morales-Espejel include modelling of bearing life, friction, lubrication, and surface life. He holds many patents in rolling bearing technology. He has received several research achievement awards and best paper awards. Professor Morales-Espejel started his career as a mechanical designer in the truck gearbox industry. Before becoming interested in rolling bearings, Professor Morales-Espejel was an associate professor at ITESM, Campus Monterrey, Mexico, where he lectured finite elements, numerical methods, tribology, heat transfer, lubrication and advanced mechanical vibrations. He also worked for the glass-forming industry for about 5 years as a modelling advisor. He developed finite element and boundary element code for the glass-forming and railways industries among other applications.
