  2. Plain bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_bearing

    A plain bearing, or more commonly sliding contact bearing and slide bearing (in railroading sometimes called a solid bearing, journal bearing, or friction bearing [2]), is the simplest type of bearing, comprising just a bearing surface and no rolling elements. Therefore, the part of the shaft in contact with the bearing slides over the bearing ...

  3. Rolling contact fatigue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_contact_fatigue

    Overview of bearing components, including bearing element and inner ring [1] Rolling Contact Fatigue (RCF) is a phenomenon that occurs in mechanical components relating to rolling/sliding contact, such as railways, gears, and bearings. [2] It is the result of the process of fatigue due to rolling/sliding contact.

  4. Way (machine tool element) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Way_(machine_tool_element)

    The geometry of the way can vary depending on the situation. The most common types are flat, vee, and dovetail ways. Flat ways are used when there is little requirement for the slide to be constrained perpendicular to the axis of movement, or the constraint is being provided by another component or otherwise not needed, such as on the carriage of a lathe.

  5. Bearing (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_(mechanical)

    A ball bearing. A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion and reduces friction between moving parts.The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.

  6. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    Normal contact mechanics or frictionless contact mechanics focuses on normal stresses caused by applied normal forces and by the adhesion present on surfaces in close contact, even if they are clean and dry. Frictional contact mechanics emphasizes the effect of friction forces. Contact mechanics is part of mechanical engineering.

  7. Galling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galling

    In sliding friction, increased compressive stress is proportionally equal to a rise in potential energy and temperature within the contact zone. The energy accumulation during sliding can reduce energy loss from the contact zone due to a small surface area on the surface boundary, thus, low heat conductivity.
