TL;DR: In this article, the impact of finishing on friction and wear during running-in and subsequent operation is evaluated for the grinding process, and the experiments showed a significant correlation between grinding force, friction coefficient and wear rate.

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of external dynamic loads on the lifetime of rolling element bearing is analyzed. But the authors focus on a single test bearing and do not consider the impact of different types and sizes of bearing.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the nature and ex tent of a major problem and quantified it, thereby enabling more rational assessments to be made, and suggested a solution to reduce the run-in period and the oil consumption of engines.
Abstract: Ways of reducing the run-in period and the oil consumption of engines are being investigated intensively. One possible solution is that of making the cylinder liners in such a way that the modification of local geometry during running-in is kept to a minimum. Current technology has developed a modified honing process which attempts to reproduce the run-in texture. However, there are serious problems in measuring these surfaces which is resulting in disputes between machine tool and car manufacturers. This paper analyses the nature and ex tent of a major problem and quantifies it, thereby enabling more rational assessments to be made. Recommendations are put forward for the future

TL;DR: In this paper, a tool carrier is equipped with a set of long and short honing blades to adjust the pressure exerted by the short blades, in relation to tool feed, to ensure that the bottom of the bore is truly cylindrical.
Abstract: To insure that cylindrical bores, and particularly blind bores (8) in a workpiece (9) are truly cylindrical, or of predetermined geometry even in the region adjacent the bottom of the blind bores, a honing blade carrier (4) has a set of long honing blades (5, 5a) of about the length of the bore and a set of short honing blades (6, 6a) located adjacent the bottom of the bore on the tool, with the short honing blades being independently adjustable; sensing elements (25, 26, 27) are integrated with the tool carrier (4) to sense the dimension of the bore at various levels or planes (A, B, C), the output signal from the plane (C) of the bottom of the bore being processed in a controlled channel (32) to adjust, individually, the honing pressure exerted by the short blades, in relation to tool feed, and hone the bottom of the bore to the appropriate size, as determined, for example, by a sample standard (28) having a sensing plane (D) which can be sensed by the same sensing elements as those which sense the bore, upon withdrawal of the honing tool carrier through the standard (28).

TL;DR: In this article, the inner surfaces of hollow members of a hollow body were grained by means of abrasive particles, and the inner surface of the body was then honed.
Abstract: This invention relates to improvements in methods and apparatus for grinding or honing the inner surfaces of hollow members. More particularly, this invention relates to improvements in methods and apparatus for grinding or honing the inner surfaces of hollow members by means of abrasive particles...
