This monograph presents computational models that describe electro-mechanical characteristics
of tapered and cylinder roller bearings in various industrial applications. Applying the
Levenberg-Marquardt's algorithm to solving strongly nonlinear coupled equation systems the
computational models consisting of many circular slices per rolling element enable computations
of the local Hertzian pressures at the elastohydrodynamic (EHD) contact area the relating
oil-film thickness in elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) the limiting voltage of
electro-pitting bearing frictions and fatigue lifetimes of the bearings for various load
spectra. Using the best-known machine-learning method for clustering the load spectrum is
clustered in k cluster means based on the invariant damage number to accelerate the load
spectrum. Furthermore the accelerated load spectrum is used for the testing procedure of the
bearings to reduce the testing time and costs as well.The target audience of this book
primarily comprises graduate students in mechanical engineering and practicing engineers of
electro-machines and transmission systems who want to computationally design tapered and
cylinder roller bearings for the automotive industry and other industries and to deeply dive
into these relating working fields.
