Scoring and Burnishing in Bearings: A Report of Investigations into Two Phenomena Associated with the Lubrication Problem

Abstract

MUCH has been written about ‘ideal’ bearings, in which the moving parts are separated by a fluid film of calculable thickness. The performance of such bearings can be estimated by a knowledge of the geometry of the bearing and the viscosity of the lubricating fluid.
