Each bearing type experiences different kinds of motion and forces with their respective raceway, retainers and guiding flanges. The material in this book identifies the tribology of the major bearing types and how that tribology depends upon materials, surfaces and lubrication. In addition, the book describes the best practices to mitigate common failure modes of rolling element bearings.
- Discusses important tribological implications surrounding the performance and durability of rolling element bearings
- Describes how the different types of roller bearings work
- Explores the reasons behind the failure of roller bearings and presents information on how to mitigate those failures
Materials Science and Mechanical engineering faculty, undergraduate and graduate students, as well as application and design engineers
