Rolling contact fatigue of silicon nitride. [PDF]
Silicon Nitride has traditionally been used as rolling contact bearing material owing to its superior performance compared to bearing steels. Its successful application as a bearing element has led to the development of Silicon Nitride in other rolling contact applications in the automotive industry and the power industry.

Approaches to modeling occurrence of rolling contact fatigue damages in rails
Rolling contact-fatigue damages of rails along with their wear are the most common types of rail defects. In recent years, there have been significant changes in the distribution of rolling contact fatigue damages of rails especially on railways ...

Rolling contact fatigue in lubricated contacts
Abstract This work presents and discusses the results of rolling contact fatigue tests (IP-300) with six different lubricants using a four-ball E.P. lubricant tester. These results tended to confirm the mechanism for rolling fatigue proposed by Jin and Kang.
