Bending Stresses in Spherically Hollow Ball Bearing and Fatigue Experiments

Abstract
Spherically hollow balls of 21.7, 50.0 and 56.5 percent mass reduction have been operated in ball bearings and in a 5-ball fatigue tester with differing outcomes. Available theoretical and experimental treatments of stresses in spherically hollow balls are reviewed and compared. Bending stresses are estimated for these spherically hollow balls to better understand the differences in ball bearing and fatigue test experience.
