What is Engine Bearing Failure Analysis Guide about?

Engine bearings rely on an oil film to separate the shaft and bearing surfaces. At rest the surfaces are in contact, but during startup and operation the rotating shaft pulls oil into a wedge that lifts and supports it. Bearing failure occurs when the oil film breaks down or the bearing is overloaded, leading the surfaces to contact and wear. Common causes of bearing failure include lack of lubrication, contamination, improper installation, misalignment, and overloading.
