An apparatus to simulate the thermal behavior of a 3/4 inch bore tapered roller bearing was constructed and used to determine tapered roller bearing thermal behavior. Bearing specimens can be loaded axially and/or radially while rotating. Shaft heating is also provided and mechanical losses measured. An infrared scanner and thermocouples allow for temperature measurement. An analytical model of...

A 31-year-old woman with history of antiphospholipid syndrome treated with warfarin reported two days after a roller-coaster ride, sudden onset of paresthesias in the right side of the face and in the right hand, followed by headache. Neuroimaging results are shown in Figures 1 and 2. The “blood/fluid level” represented by the interface between plasma and sedimented blood (Figure 1) can be seen...

The shaft deflection is one of critical factors that deteriorate the grease lubrication state inside the tapered roller bearings (TRBs). So, in this paper, on the premise of the TRB subjected to the combined loads and the shaft is deflected, the grease lubrication model at the TRB contacts was constructed, in which the interaction loads, linear and angular displacements of the bearing parts wer...

The constant winding tension can make the filament arranged in order. The stress distribution between the filament balance fully gives play to the enhancement of filament, and increases the intensive workload of the composite winding material. This paper conducts the mechanical analysis for the unwinding roller and tension measuring roller of the cylindrical winding machine so that gets the mec...
