ClearMaterial Response to Rolling Contact Loading
This materials science study investigates how rolling contact in ball bearings causes microplastic deformation in steel, leading to crystallographic texture changes, residual stresses, and eventual fatigue failure. The term 'microplastic' in this paper refers to small-scale plastic deformation in metals and has no connection to environmental plastic pollution.
A 3D Finite Element Model of Rolling Contact Fatigue for Evolved Material Response and Residual Stress Estimation
This engineering study developed a 3D finite element model for rolling contact fatigue in steel bearings to predict residual stress and material hardening. It is a mechanical engineering paper not related to environmental microplastics.
Analysis of fatigue crack initiation in cyclic microplasticity regime
This engineering study analyzed how fatigue cracks begin in metals under cyclic loading, focusing on microscale stress and material defects. It is a materials science paper not related to environmental microplastics.
New Methodology to Evaluate the Rolling Contact Fatigue Performance of Bearing Steels With Surface Dents: Application to 32CrMoV13 (Nitrided) and M50 Steels
This engineering study developed a method to evaluate how surface dents affect rolling contact fatigue in bearing steels, using indentation testing and two-disk fatigue experiments to compare different steel alloys. This is an industrial engineering study with no relevance to environmental microplastics.
Analysis of the Subsurface Volume of Differently Finished AISI 52100 by Cyclic Indentation and X‐Ray Diffraction
This study analyzed how different surface finishing processes affect fatigue behavior in roller bearing steel, finding that surface roughness and residual stress influence component lifetime. The research is focused on materials engineering and has limited direct relevance to microplastic pollution.
Chapter 13 | Rolling Contact Microstructural Alterations and Effect on Residual Stress and Fatigue Limit, “Butterflies,” Material Response Analysis, and Modeling of Rolling Contact Fatigue Life
This review examines rolling contact-induced microstructural alterations in bearing steels, including white etching 'butterfly' formations around nonmetallic inclusions, and analyzes their effects on residual stress distribution and fatigue life. The chapter synthesizes materials characterization and computational modeling approaches to understand and predict rolling contact fatigue failure mechanisms.
Crack nucleation using combined crystal plasticity modelling, high-resolution digital image correlation and high-resolution electron backscatter diffraction in a superalloy containing non-metallic inclusions under fatigue
This materials engineering study combined crystal plasticity modeling with high-resolution microscopy to understand how fatigue cracks form near non-metallic inclusions in nickel superalloys. The research addresses durability of industrial alloy components and is not related to microplastics research.
On Microplasticity-induced Fatigue Fracture and its Relation to Entropy
Researchers investigated the relationship between microplasticity and fatigue fracture in steel specimens under axial cyclic loading, using fatigue testing machines to identify the stress cycle point at which microplastic deformation becomes detectable and analyzing its relationship to entropy production.
Tribological Aspects of Rolling Bearing Failures
This review covers the tribology (friction and wear science) of rolling element bearings, discussing failure modes and how material fatigue drives bearing lifespan predictions. This mechanical engineering study has no relevance to microplastics or environmental health.
Influence of hard phase size and spacing on the fatigue crack propagation in tool steels—Numerical simulation and experimental validation
Not relevant to microplastics research; this paper investigates how carbide size and spacing in tool steel microstructures affects fatigue crack growth rate, with no connection to plastic pollution.
Plastic intermittency during cyclic loading: From dislocation patterning to microcrack initiation
This physics study examines how dislocation patterns in metals under cyclic loading lead to fatigue crack initiation at the microscale. It is a materials science paper studying microscale plastic deformation in metals, unrelated to environmental microplastics.
Dislocation Arrangements and Cyclic Microplasticity Surrounding Stress Concentration in a Ni‐Based Single‐Crystal Superalloy
Not relevant to microplastics — this materials science study examines dislocation behavior and fatigue crack initiation in nickel-based single-crystal superalloys; 'microplasticity' here refers to microscale metal deformation, not plastic particles.
