METHOD FOR CALCULATING THE CONTACT BETWEEN ROLLER END FACE AND RING RIB OF ROLLER BEARINX IN MULTI-BODY SIMULATIONS

摘要

To summarize, the PinP method provides similarly accurate results as the theory of Hertz. But in addition, the PinP method can be used to describe more complex geometries that generate curved ellipses as contact zones. These can only be described simplified by Hertz. Instead, contact situations of two contact zones are not. This is the great benefit of the PinP method, which is suitable for such constellations. In a further step, this has to be examined more precisely. For this purpose, higher numerical methods, such as FEM, will be used for a comparison.
