Bearing fatigue life is calculated using a so called basic rating equation L10=CPp where the operating load translated into an equivalent P and divided by bearing capacity. This makes it possible to test capacity C under arbitrary therefore on almost any rig. For grease such concept does not exist. Grease specified number of hours running standardized rigs conditions. A similar as for introduce...

Metal-on-metal (MOM) is a commonly used bearing notable for its 'suction fit' when lubricated. In this study, we examined the capacity for MOM bearings to protect against dislocation after total hip replacement (THR). We undertook a clinical investigation to compare the rate of dislocation of MOM bearings with those of ceramic-on-polyethylene (COP) bearings and found that one MOM bearing disloc...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of general principles of person transfer techniques specifically on the low back joint extension moment. These effects were examined by the following measurable quantitative parameters: 1) trunk bending angle, 2) knee flexion angle, 3) distance between the centers of gravity (COGs) of the caregiver and patient, representing the distance betwe...

Fluorinated tetraethylene glycol-stabilized Au nanoparticles (FTEG-AuNPs) were well-dispersed in general polar organic solvents, such as methanol (MeOH) and THF. The cast film of FTEG-AuNPs on a TEM grid and a glass substrate was found to form a highly ordered 3D-superlattice assembly, whereas tetraethylene glycol-stabilized AuNPs (TEG-AuNPs) provide an amorphous AuNP aggregation. These data in...

Based on computational fluid dynamics, friction lubrication theory and hydrostatic technology, large size hydrostatic Guide-way of heavy vertical CNC lathes,which are widely used, was taken as research object. The control equation of hydrostatic guide-way’s interstitial fluid was established. By finite volume method, lubricating oil properties, boundary conditions such as constant flow inlet, o...

The magnetically suspended Control Moment Gyroscope (CMG) has the advantages of long-life, micro-vibration and being non-lubricating, and is the ideal actuator for agile maneuver satellite attitude control. However, the stability of the rotor in magnetic bearing and the precision of the output torque of a magnetically suspended CMG are affected by the rapid maneuvers of satellites. In this pape...
