A bearing is a relatively inexpensive replaceable wear surface, which reduces friction between rotating shafts and fixed housings. The intent is for bearings to protect more expensive parts, of an engine such as the crankshaft and camshaft as well as the engine block and connecting rods.... This requires that bearings be capable of withstanding very high loads which are constantly changing in magnitude and direction. These are commonly referred to as cyclic loads which may eventually result in bearing lining fatigue or flaking if the bearing material does not have adequate fatigue strength. 2, record 1, English, - bearing%20lining

A bearing is a relatively inexpensive replaceable wear surface, which reduces friction between rotating shafts and fixed housings. The intent is for bearings to protect more expensive parts, of an engine such as the crankshaft and camshaft as well as the engine block and connecting rods. In addition, bearings must also support the moving parts. This requires that bearings be capable of withstanding very high loads which are constantly changing in magnitude and direction. These are commonly referred to as cyclic loads which may eventually result in bearing lining fatigue or flaking if the bearing material does not have adequate fatigue strength. 2, record 5, English, - main%20bearing%20lining

Bearings are made to take up wear from friction and abrasive action and are generally always replaced when an engine is rebuilt.... Manufacturing and reconditioning tolerances dictate that bearings must be able to conform to minor degrees of misalignment and surface imperfections between the bearing, shaft and housing. This is generally considered to be part of the break-in process, and conformability is an important bearing characteristic. 2, record 6, English, - bearing%20characteristic
