Ball and Roller Bearings: Theory, Design and Application [Hardcover]

Johannes Brändlein (Author), Paul Eschmann (Author), Ludwig Hasbargen (Author), Karl Weigand (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 1, 1999 | ISBN-10: 0471984523 | ISBN-13: 978-0471984528 | Edition: 3

This book is the third edition of the standard work for all engineers concerned with rolling bearings - in design and development; in production and operation; in maintenance and repair; in purchasing and materials management. Fully revised, features new to this edition include:
* coverage of the new 'adjusted life' calculation, which takes into account the endurance strength of rolling bearings in relation to factors such as the cleanliness of the lubricant and the design of the bearing housing using the flow of force
* expanded chapter on lubrication
The information in this book will help bearing engineers make real-life improvements to the capacity and operational reliability of bearings in vehicles, machines, equipment and plants, saving on both time and costs. This book is an essential reference to the fundamental correlations of bearing engineering, and to all aspects of bearing design and technology.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful reference in bearing design, June 8, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Ball and Roller Bearings: Theory, Design and Application (Hardcover)

This book provides a solid fundamental principles of rolling element bearings. The author clearly illustates many good applications and states critical design rules for bearings. It is a must have book for mechanical enginners interested in ball and roller bearing theory and technology.
