The content of the following master's thesis addresses the numerical-analytical calculation of the bending stiffness of a third generation wheel hub bearing, along with its experimental validation. In the initial part of thesis, the bending stiffness was calculated with combination of finite element method and company's internal analitical calculator. In the next section of the thesis, an experiment was carried out with the help of a dedicated testing rig. A comparison and analysis of the obtained results is presented in the final part of the thesis.
