Th e effe ct of roughn ess of surf aces of a slider bearing on the lotul-carruinu capacity and fri ction fo rce, is
studied. Th e distinction is made between wavin ess and roughn ess, the loiter being treated as a randoln
quantity whi ch may be characterized by a probability density j unction, determin ed ex peri mentally.
R esult s can be obtain ed in closed form sui table[or calculation ij a B eta distribution is a.s.~lIIned . A ctuollu,
thi s can approximate quit e closely a Gaus sian distribution, yi eldin(J quit e accurate result s. Ho wever, the
procedure deiclopeil can be carried out for an y desired di stribution ,
