... (“Dynamic Capacity of Rolling Bearings,” Acta Polytech. Scand., Mech. Eng. Ser., 1(3), pp. 7–53 ), is used. This model relates fatigue life to a critical stress quantity and its corresponding depth, but instead of explicitly assuming a Weibull distribution of fatigue lives, the life distribution is obtained...

... through the microstructure. Spalling lives are found to follow a three-parameter Weibull distribution more closely compared to the conventionally used two-parameter Weibull distribution. The Weibull slopes obtained are within experimentally observed values for bearing steels. Spalling lives are found...

... of these variations on the subsurface stress field in Hertzian line contacts is studied. Fatigue life is formulated as a function of a critical stress quantity and its corresponding depth, following a similar approach to the Lundberg–Palmgren theory. However, instead of explicitly assuming a Weibull distribution...

...Michael N. Kotzalas, Ph.D The original two-parameter Weibull distribution used for rolling element fatigue tends to under-estimate life at high levels of reliability. This is due to the fact that a finite life value for which 100% of the population will survive cannot be considered with this method...

...Ning Yu,; Shaun R. Pergande, and; Andreas A. Polycarpou The CEB static friction model is extended to include asymmetric distributions of asperity heights, using the normalized one-parameter Weibull distribution. The normal contact, tangential (friction), and adhesion forces are calculated...

...Ning Yu; Andreas A. Polycarpou The statistical approach of describing rough surfaces is extended to include the contact of two rough surfaces in which their distribution of asperity heights can either be symmetric or asymmetric, and the asymmetry is modeled using the normalized Weibull distribution...
