This work reviews the failure modes, mechanisms and causes of bearings in mechanical
equipment. Bearings are among the most important basic mechanical components. Their …

Fluid lubricated bearings have been widely adopted as support components for high-end
equipment in metrology, semiconductor devices, aviation, strategic defense, ultraprecision …

This paper studies the friction-induced instability and nonlinear dynamics of a heavily-
loaded slow speed propulsion shafting subjected to the uninterrupted contact between the …

Analytical model for linear vibration analysis of a pair of meshing helical gears mounted on
compliant spinning parallel shafts is developed. The gears are modeled as rigid disks while …

Hybrid journal bearings are crucial components in many equipment, such as nuclear reactor
cooling pumps and hydraulic motors. However, there exists a significant challenge to …

The tribological properties of the mineral base oils are enhanced significantly with the
addition of Multi-Walled Carbon Nano-Tubes (MWCNT) particularly under extreme contact …

In the present research work the failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) process is applied
to identify the various possible failure modes of different configurations of passive magnetic …

For investigating surface damage mechanism, three types of hybrid ceramic ball bearings,
under the same conditions, were installed and tested in the same spindle of a bearing test …

A modified partially averaged Navier–Stokes model (MPANS) is proposed by treating the
standard k–ε model as the parent model and formulating the unresolved-to-total kinetic …

In the present research work, analytical equations have been developed for design and
optimization of radial axial polarized passive magnetic bearing (PMB) with single layer for …
