Bearing Life API

healthy 3,567 Subscribers

Rolling-element bearing life maths (ISO 281) as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The life endpoint computes the basic rating life of a ball or roller bearing, L10 = (C/P)^p — where p is 3 for ball bearings and 10/3 for roller bearings — from the dynamic load rating C and the equivalent load P, reporting the life in millions of revolutions and, given a speed in rpm, in hours and days; it also works backwards, solving the minimum dynamic load rating needed for a target life, or the maximum load a bearing can carry to still reach it. The load endpoint computes the equivalent dynamic load P = X·Fr + Y·Fa from the radial and axial loads and the bearing X and Y factors, the single load value the life formula needs. The reliability endpoint applies the ISO 281 life-modification factor a1 to give the adjusted rating life Lna = a1·L10 for any survival probability from 90 % up to 99.95 %, interpolated from the standard reliability table. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for mechanical-engineering, maintenance and reliability tools, machine and drivetrain design, predictive-maintenance and lifetime-costing apps, and engineering education. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is rolling-bearing rating life; for shaft torsion stress use a torsion API and for rotational energy use a flywheel API.

Geo Distance API

Great-circle (as-the-crow-flies) navigation maths between latitude/longitude points. The distance endpoint returns the straight-line distance in metres, kilometres, miles and nautical miles, plus the initial and final compass bearing and the nearest 16-point compass direction. The destination endpoint computes where you end up from a start point, a bearing and a distance, and the midpoint endpoint finds the great-circle midpoint between two points. Perfect for proximity and radius search, geofencing, flight and shipping estimates, "distance from me" features and mapping. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. These are straight-line distances on a spherical earth, not road routes. Live, nothing stored. 4 endpoints. Distinct from road routing, GeoJSON geometry measurement and coordinate-format conversion.

Geo Distance API

A fast, fully-local great-circle geospatial toolkit: compute the haversine distance between two coordinates (in km, m, miles or nautical miles), the initial and final compass bearing, the geographic midpoint, the destination point reached from an origin on a bearing at a given distance, and a bounding box around a center for a radius. Pure server-side compute, no third-party upstream, so responses are instant and always available. Ideal for logistics, delivery and fleet apps, store locators, real-estate search, travel and mapping tools.

Reliability Engineering API

Reliability-engineering maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the availability, MTBF and failure maths behind SLAs and dependable systems. The availability endpoint converts between MTBF and MTTR, a target availability and the SLA "nines": give it a mean time between failures and a mean time to repair and it returns the availability A = MTBF/(MTBF+MTTR) and the downtime per year, month, week and day; give it a number of nines and it returns the budget — three nines (99.9 %) is 8.76 hours of downtime a year, five nines (99.999 %) just 5.26 minutes. The reliability endpoint computes the probability a unit survives a mission time under the exponential model R(t) = e^(−λt) with its constant hazard λ = 1/MTBF, or the Weibull model R(t) = e^(−(t/η)^β) — β below one for infant mortality, one for random failures, above one for wear-out — returning the reliability, failure probability, hazard rate and the mean life η·Γ(1+1/β). The system endpoint combines component reliabilities into a system: series (the weakest link, ΠRᵢ), parallel redundancy (1−Π(1−Rᵢ)) or k-of-n voting. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for SRE, DevOps, hardware-reliability, safety-engineering and SLA-planning app developers, uptime-budget and redundancy-design tools, and engineering education. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. This is reliability and availability maths; for queue wait-times use a queueing API and for live uptime checks use a monitoring service.
