Micromechanism of Plastic Accumulation and Damage Initiation in Bearing Steels under Cyclic Shear Deformation: A Molecular Dynamics Study

Fatigue failure usually occurs on the subsurface in rolling bearings due to multiaxial and non-proportional fatigue loadings between rolling elements. One of the main stress components is the alternating shear stress. This paper focuses on the micromechanism of plastic accumulation and damage initia...
