  2. Federal Bridge Gross Weight Formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Bridge_Gross...

    Truck axle groups are used to calculate compliance with the formula. Any two axles must comply with the results of the formula, but axle groups 1–5, 1–3, and 2–5 are most critical. This truck is not in violation of the formula. [1] FMCSA regulation §658.17 states: [9]

  3. Mechanical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_load

    Mechanical load is the physical stress on a mechanical system or component [1] leading to strain. Loads can be static or dynamic. Some loads are specified as part of the design criteria of a mechanical system. Depending on the usage, some mechanical loads can be measured by an appropriate test method in a laboratory or in the field.

  4. Axle load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axle_load

    The axle load of a wheeled vehicle is the total weight bearing on the roadway for all wheels connected to a given axle.Axle load is an important design consideration in the engineering of roadways and railways, as both are designed to tolerate a maximum weight-per-axle (axle load); exceeding the maximum rated axle load will cause damage to the roadway or railway tracks.

  5. Thrust bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust_bearing

    These are the type most commonly used in automotive applications (to support the wheels of a motor car for example), where they are used in pairs to accommodate axial thrust in either direction, as well as radial loads. They can support greater thrust loads than the ball type due to the larger contact area, but are more expensive to manufacture.

  6. Spherical roller thrust bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_roller_thrust...

    The bearing is designed to take radial loads, and heavy axial loads in one direction. Typically these bearings support a rotating shaft in the bore of the shaft washer that may be misaligned in respect to the housing washer. The misalignment is possible due to the spherical internal shape of the house washer. [1]

  7. Magnetic coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_coupling

    This coupling features two face-to-face magnetized disks: the driving magnet on the dry side, and the driven magnet on the underwater side. Torque is transferred by shear forces between the attracting magnetic disks, [5] but this attraction can also produce an axial load as the disks pull on each other. There are two main designs for the ...

  8. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

    A sealed deep groove ball bearing. In mechanical engineering, a rolling-element bearing, also known as a rolling bearing, [1] is a bearing which carries a load by placing rolling elements (such as balls, cylinders, or cones) between two concentric, grooved rings called races.

  9. Critical speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_speed

    Stiffness of the shaft and its support; Total mass of shaft and attached parts; Unbalance of the mass with respect to the axis of rotation; The amount of damping in the system; In general, it is necessary to calculate the critical speed of a rotating shaft, such as a fan shaft, in order to avoid issues with noise and vibration.
