The paper presents result of the research on influence of internal radial clearance in radial cylindrical roller bearing on its fatigue durability. By solving the Boussinesq problem for the elastic half-space and finite elements method, stress distributions were determined, necessary to estimate predicted fatigue life of the bearing. The calculations took into account geometrical parameters of the bearing: its radial clearance and shape of rolling parts. Predicted radical clearance was computed by using the Lundberg and Palmgren model. ANSYS program allowed to introduce the analysis of von Mises stress distribution in any plane of cooperating components. The outcome revealed, radial cylindrical roller bearing will have highest endurance with slight radial clearance.

The article presents the results of studies on the impact of a combined load of a radial cylindrical roller bearing for its predicted fatigue life. The distributions of maximum equivalent subsurface stresses and their depths, necessary during calculations of fatigue life, were determined using the finite element method, using the basic package of the ANSYS program. The calculations took into account the geometrical parameters of the bearing, including radial clearance and the shape of the rolling elements generators. The calculation results showed that the axial load of the radial cylindrical roller bearing and the tilt of the rollers associated with its operation reduces fatigue life. The obtained results were compared with the results of calculations according to the SKF catalogue method, obtaining satisfactory compliance.

This study investigates the emergence of extreme events in a complex variable dynamical system. In the absence of an external forcing, the model exhibits nearly Hamiltonian dynamics. When we set the system to a nearly conservative state and perturb it with external forcing, the formation of the onset of the extreme events was detected. By applying nullcline analysis and the system’s vector field, we explored the underlying mechanism that leads to extreme events. Furthermore, we have conducted a thorough investigation to show the dynamic origins of extreme amplitude events and their transitions. The hardware electronic experiment is used to validate the numerical results of the onset of extreme events, and the results obtained are in good agreement with one another.
