3. INTRODUCTION
A bearing is a machine element that constrains
relative motion to only the desired motion, and
reduces friction between moving parts.
4. ANOTHER DEFINITION:-
An air bearing is a non-contacting system where a
gas film (typically air) acts as the lubricant that
separates the two surface in relative motion.
