17Cr2Ni2MoVNb steel is a new type of gear steel in the automotive industry; the rolling contact fatigue behavior is not well documented. In this study, some microscopic analysis methods (optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS)) were used to characterize material microstructure and damage surface. In addition, rolling contact fatigue behavior was evaluated by Weibull curve. The results show that the size of austenite grain increased while the quenching temperature increased. Moreover, the samples with a quenching temperature of 1000 °C exhibited the maximum mean life of 7.33 × 105 cycles. In addition, the failure mode of quenched at 900 °C and 1100 °C were delamination, and pitting was the main failure mode of 1000 °C.

Rolling bearings in wind turbine gearboxes occasionally fail prematurely by so-called white etching cracks. The appearance of the damage indicates brittle spontaneous tensile stress induced surface cracking followed by corrosion fatigue driven crack growth. An X-ray diffraction based residual stress analysis reveals vibrations in service as the root cause. The occurrence of high local friction coefficients in the rolling contact is described by a tribological model. Depth profiles of the equivalent shear and normal stresses are compared with residual stress patterns and a relevant fracture strength, respectively. White etching crack failures are reproduced on a rolling contact fatigue test rig under increased mixed friction. Causative vibration loading is evident from residual stress measurements. Cold working compressive residual stresses are an effective countermeasure.

In this study, the diffraction rings were measured point by point all over the head of rail sample which was used in service, and shearing stresses with respect to the depth direction were determined using the generalized cosα method. The full width at half maximum was also estimated from the diffraction ring.
