#bearing

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.

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.

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.
