This bookcomprehensively presents the computational design of rolling bearings dealing
with many interdisciplinary difficult working fields. They encompass
elastohydrodynamics (EHD), Hertzian contact theory, oil-film thickness in elastohydrodynamic
lubrication (EHL), bearing dynamics, tribology of surface textures, fatigue failure
mechanisms, 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 on
the up-to-date DIN ISO norms and helpful examples for computational design of
rolling bearings.


The topics are intended for undergraduate and graduate students in
mechanical and material engineering, research scientists, and practicing
engineers who want to understand the interactions between these working fields
and to know how to design the rolling bearings for automotive industry and many
other industries.
