— mixed lubrication condition, and
— condition comprising a non-lubrication condition which shifts to a fluid-film lubrication condition.
In addition, this document also specifies requirements for mating (shaft) material, the lubrication method and for items to consider during the design of water-lubricated plain bearing materials.
