PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a plain bearing with texture having high average lubricating film pressure and low friction coefficient, capable of estimating and optimizing performance thereof, and capable of avoiding wear and seizure accompanying contact of both members, and a method for estimating performance thereof. SOLUTION: The plain bearing comprises a fixing member 1 and a motion member 2 sliding with keeping a gap with the same, forms fluid lubricating film between the same, and includes texture supporting force acting toward the fixed member in the motion member. The texture has a plurality of dimples 3 on one of both of the fixed member 1 and the motion member 2. Intervals of the dimples 3 in a sliding direction is established larger than double of length in the sliding direction of the dimple. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
