Tribology, the science of friction, lubrication and wear, is fundamental for designing robust interfaces in mechanical systems. In the context of journal bearings—critical components supporting ...

Journal bearing design is complex. It involves optimizing clearances, bearing length, minimum film lubricant, viscosity, flow rate, and inlet slots. Design equations are available, but their solution ...

A simple one-piece sleeve is sometimes better for reducing friction than complex rolling-element bearings. Besides being greaseless, journal bearings can be made out of high-tech plastics for weight ...

At Petro Vietnam Vung Ang 1 Thermal Power Plant, Mechanical Dynamics & Analysis (MD&A) experts repaired damaged babbitt bearings and refurbished journals for a customer on a steam turbine-generator ...
