... the surface defect, internal stresses, damage, etc. In order to determine the shape of a dent and material pile up during the over rolling process, a rigid indenter was pressed against an elastic plastic semi-infinite domain. Continuum damage mechanics (CDM) was used to account for material degradation during...

... material model is employed to capture the material behavior of bearing steel and is coupled with the continuum damage mechanics (CDM) approach to capture the material degradation due to fatigue. The fatigue damage model employs both stress and accumulated plastic strain based damage evolution laws...

... to estimate the fatigue lives of bearing elements and account for the effects of topological randomness of the bearing materials, in this work, damage mechanics modeling approach is incorporated into a Voronoi finite element method recently developed by the authors. Contrary to most of the life models...

... mechanisms that lead to this scatter. One of the primary reasons for dispersion in lives is the stochastic nature of the bearing material. Here, a damage mechanics based fatigue model is introduced in conjunction with the idea of discrete material representation that takes the effect of material...
