Abstract
A compressive load carrying laminated bearing comprising alternating bonded layers of a resilient material and a non-extensible material generally concentrically disposed about a common center with successive layers being disposed at successively increasing radii. The fatigue life thereof, when subjected to cylic rotational or torsional motion about the common center, is substantially enhanced by progressively increasing the thickness of the layers of resilient material with increasing radii while simultaneously progressively decreasing the modulus of elasticity of the layers of resilient material with increasing radii. .Iadd.
