Examples

1. Vibration leads to failure when the " forcing frequency " of the machine's operation hits a resonant frequency of one or more moving parts, such as rotating shafts.
2. The vertically acting sear acted on a piece called the tumbler, on the inside of the lock which was mounted on the same rotating shaft as the cock.
3. While each pipe is being tested, one end is securely fixed and the other rests on a rotating shaft, the motion of which is indicated with a pointer.

5. Labyrinth seals are also found on pistons, which use them to store oil and seal against high pressure during compression and power strokes, as well as on other non-rotating shafts.
