# Deformation for bearing faces

> [HTML Version](deformation-for-bearing-faces.html)

(./images/SHAFT2-elasticPartFace_10_0.png)The deformation of elastic bearing faces can be shown in a diagram. The radial and axial deformation and the tilting angle are shown over the angular position in a local coordinate system for the face. In this diagram the the rigid body displacements are included while they are subtracted in the deformation diagram available in the bearing calculation.
