Hello,
I am simulating a set of tapered roller bearings. From the bearing manufacturer, we have the bearing stiffness values. How can I simulate the angular stiffness of the bearings, i.e. rotational stiffness about axes pointing radially outward. This stiffness value has a large effect on shaft bending and housing deflections, and thus on the bearing alignment and bearing lifetime.
The bearing connector has no input for angular stiffness.
Thank you,
Ian
