Abstract: Vibration analysis has been widely accepted as a common and reliable method for bearing fault identification, however, the presence of noise in the measured signal poses the maximum amount of difficulty. Therefore, for the ...

Abstract: This paper presents a theoretical model for the forcing function generated on the structure as a rolling element negotiates a spalllike defect on the inner race, considered to be a moving race. The negotiation of defect ...

Abstract: Local faults, like spalls in rolling element bearings, give rise to periodic impulsive excitation to the supporting structure. So, an impact based force evaluation, the resulting response analysis of the structure, and ...

Abstract: This paper mainly reports stability investigations of rotors supported on fluid film journal bearings possessing multilocational slip-no-slip zones at the bush–film interface. The coupled solution of governing equations ...

Abstract: It becomes impossible to use conventional fluid film journal bearings in the hot working environments (500–800 °C) due to rapid thermal degradation of lubricating oils. Under this situation, powder lubricants prove beneficial ...
