The magnetic north pole is constantly shifting relative to the axis of rotation of Earth. Magnetism is a vector and so magnetic field variation is studied by palaeodirectional measurements of magnetic declination and magnetic inclination and palaeointensity measurements. Earth's magnetic polarity reversals in last 5 million years.
With a local declination of 14°E, a true bearing (i.e. obtained from a map) of 54° is converted to a magnetic bearing (for use in the field) by subtracting declination: 54° – 14° = 40°. If the local declination was 14°W (−14°), it is again subtracted from the true bearing to obtain a magnetic bearing: 54°- (−14°) = 68°.
A rolling element bearing's static load rating is defined to avoid this failure type. Increasing the number of elements can provide better distribution of the load, so bearings intended for a large load may have many balls, or use needles instead. This decreases the chances of brinelling, but increases friction and other factors.
Physical simulation of the false brinelling mechanism has been standardized since the 1980's in the Fafnir Bearing test instrument, where two sets of thrust ball bearings are compressed with a fixed load, and the bearings are oscillated by an excentric arm under standardised conditions. This culminated in the ASTM D4170 standard.
