Despite extensive research on the investigation of REB dynamic behavior , the combined effect of different defect types on bearing vibrations has been relatively understudied Also , only a few REBS dynamic models considered cage flexibility , and a little effort was focused on the effect of lubricant types on the REB Skidding behavior In this study, a 6-DOF dynamic model is developed to investigate the vibration characteristics of REB with a multipoint defect comprising a dent and bump on its raceway surface The model considers various factors such as time-varying contact forces due to defects , lubricant film damping , bearing preload , and the inertia effect of rolling elements Additionally , the impact of lubricant characteristics on REB skidding is explored at different speed states using an improved nonlinear skidding dynamic model The model incorporates time-varying traction coefficient , cage flexibility , and cage pocket clearance The tested lubricants are lithium grease (LGT2), compound calcium sulfonate (CCS) grease , and 4109 Chinese aviation oil The simulation results indicate that vibration patterns are significantly affected by defect type , size , and angle between defects In addition , it highlights the challenge of predicting bearing defect parameters solely from acceleration signal analysis , emphasizing the need for jerk signal analysis Furthermore , simulation results indicate that lubricant properties significantly affect REB dynamic performance , influencing cage slip ratio , roller - raceway sliding velocity , and cage-roller impact force Notably , CCS grease exhibits superior efficiency across all operating conditions , attributed to its structural strength , shear stability , and high oil release rate This study provides valuable insights for enhancing the stability , reliability , and safety of rotating machinery by facilitating early fault detection and diagnosis of REBs Additionally , it underscores the importance of selecting appropriate lubricants tailored to specific operating conditions ER -
