Crack growth and microstructural changes in AISI 52100: white etching cracks (WEC) and fine granular area (FGA)
The service life of rolling element bearings can usually be predicted with good accuracy. However, the damage phenomenon „white etching cracks” (WEC) can lead to premature and unforeseeable failures. The formation of zones with strongly decreased grain sizes at the crack faces is a characteristic of...
