Encourages engineering innovation by presenting rare case studies, such as hydrodynamic and rolling-element bearings in series and adjustable hydrostatic pads for large bearings. Bearing Design in Machinery considers the applications of mineral and synthetic oils, greases, solid lubricants, and oil additives fundamentals of fluid-film lubrication, including simplified computations for hydrodynamic bearing design chart usage in practical bearing design procedures and estimation of the operating temperature of oil concepts, calculations, and design of hydrostatic bearings with an external pump friction and wear characteristics of metals, plastics, ceramics, and composites, and other bearing materials fatigue life and advanced materials and processes calculations of contact stresses in rolling bearings and elastohydrodynamic lubrication bearings testing under static and dynamic conditions the advantages of VI improved viscoelastic lubricants challenges in the development and design of artificial joint implants Bearing Design in Machinery will benefit mechanical, industrial, aeronautical, and design engineers, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
