scope:

The latest volume in this historical series features a collection of 32 peer-reviewed papers highlighting the latest research and developments in rolling bearing steels and testing.

An excellent source of reference for the bearing steel technology industry, this new edition includes key research from global steel experts from nine countries. The book comprises articles from several of the presentations offered at the 12th International Symposium on Rolling Bearing Steels held in 2019.

Section topics of the symposium included:

 - rolling bearing failure modes and advanced analysis

- microcleanliness relationships and testing of air-melt bearing steels

- developments in RCF testing of bearing steels

- rolling bearing surface damage and effect on RCF Life

- dimensional stability

- developments in bearing component manufacturing

- developments in air-melt clean bearing steel steelmaking

- new and novel steel compositions for advanced rolling bearing usage

- application of fracture mechanics to bearing steel property characterization

- VIM-VAR steel know-how-aero steels metallurgy and functional properties
