Abstract: This paper describes a theoretical analysis of the dynamic behavior of multirecess externally pressurized oil journal bearings for a nonrotating journal subjected to plane harmonic vibrations. The ...

Abstract: This paper deals with an analysis of the dynamic behavior of compensated hydrostatic circular step thrust bearings taking into account fluid inertia and recess volume fluid compressibility effects. ...

Abstract: An analysis using finite difference method and small amplitude perturbation technique has been presented to evaluate the frequency dependent stiffness and damping coefficients of multirecess ...

Abstract: A numerical solution to the problem of hydrodynamic lubrication of rigid point contacts with an isoviscous, incompressible lubricant has been obtained. The hydrodynamic load-carrying capacity under ...

Abstract: This investigation deals with the stability of rigid rotors supported on finite rough oil journal bearings using perturbation method. The effect of various surface roughness parameters, viz., ...
