Ball Bearing Selection for Wheel Hubs

[Gustavo Altieri]

Hello there guys

I'm trying to find out which ball bearings I have to use for a new wheel hub I am designing. What I'm currently doing is a load analysis for the axis but I am confused on how would the forces that affect the wheel (normal, friction, lateral force when the car takes a turn, etc) come into play into this analysis. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
