OSTI ID:5745151

The bibliography contains citations concerning the fabrication and testing of bearings and bearing surfaces fabricated from ceramic materials. Included are analyses of various ceramic materials used for these bearings, generally tested under severe environmental and tribological conditions. Strength, contact phenomena, and wear are explored to evaluate the performance of the various materials. Ceramic bearings are used in engines, turbines, inertial instrumentation, and space systems. (The bibliography contains 98 citations with a subject index.)
