<p>A method for predicting the residual life of a bearing comprising the steps of measuring contact forces and/or high frequency stress waves emitted by rolling contact of the bearing, recording the measurement data as recorded data, and predicting the residual life of the bearing using the recorded data and an International Organization for Standardization (ISO) bearing life model whereby load is determined from measurements of contact forces and/or lubrication quality is determined from the high frequency stress waves emitted by rolling contact, rather than by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) rolling-element bearing life model.</p> |
