Investigation of subsurface microcracks causing premature failure in wind turbine gearbox bearings

One of the reasons behind the low rate of expansion of power production driven by wind turbines is the premature failure of their gearbox bearings, which fail within the first quarter of their designed life. The leading causes of fatigue damage in wind turbine gearbox bearings (WTGBs) are not well r...
