RISDiscussion: “Flexible Membrane Hydrostatic Air Bearing” (Levy, S. B., and Coogan, Jr., C. H., 1968, ASME J. Lubr. Technol., 90, pp. 184–190)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Externally Pressurized Foil Gas Bearings
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An axisymmetrical gas foil bearing is analyzed, with the foil being treated as a thin plate bent into a cylindrical shape. Symmetrically placed, circumferential, constant pressure sources supply ...
Discussion: “On the Analytical and Experimental Investigation of a Hydrostatic, Axisymmetric Compliant-Surface Thrust Bearing” (Castelli, V., Rightmire, G. K., and Fuller, D. D., 1967, ASME J. Lubr. Technol., 89, pp. 510–519)

Derivation of Governing Equations For Self-Acting Foil Bearings
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Contained is the derivation of the equations for the self-acting foil bearing. These equations include the effects of bending stiffness of the tape and of compressibility of the lubricant. They ...
Self-Acting Foil Bearings of Infinite Width
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this report, the minimum gap between a rigid cylinder and a moving foil (or between a rotating cylinder and a stationary foil) is determined as a function of the wrap angle as well as ...
The Axisymmetric, Perfectly Flexible Foil Bearing With Porous Inlet Restrictor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The equations for the axisymmetric, perfectly flexible foil bearing are solved for the case of an externally pressurized foil with porous inlet restriction. The results are presented in graphical ...
