Resumen
Sliding bearings are critical components of the internal combustion engine. Friction and wear occur in the contact area between the shaft and the bearing. Significant wear can occur in poor working conditions or after a long service time, leading to the failure of the sliding bearing and affecting the reliability of the machinery. It is essential to investigate the wear performance of sliding bearings, understand their wear mechanism, predict their service life, and select wear-resistant materials and surface treatments. This paper reviews the current status and prospects of sliding bearing wear research, focusing on the classification of sliding bearing wear tests, wear testing machines, wear test research, wear prediction models, and future research prospects.
