Spalling Life Prediction for Rolling Bearings Using a Model with Stress Intensity Factor and Statistical Evaluation of Non-Metallic Inclusions

Spalling, which can be classified into sub-surface and surface-originated types, is a major failure mode of rolling bearings due to rolling contact fatigue (RCF).Sub-surface originated spalling typically has a much longer life than surface-originated spalling, indicating that rolling bearings may often exhibit excessive durability in normal environ
