Abstract
A process for monitoring for the presence of fretting and/or smearing with false brinelling potential in a non-rotating bearing provides the steps of: acquiring acoustic emission data emanating from the non-rotating bearing under an alternating load; and comparing the acoustic emission data with a threshold indicative of fretting and/or smearing.
