Abstract: Numerical solutions for the squeeze film problem, in which one of the surfaces is made of rubber and moves sinusoidally, are presented. Viscoelasticity and in-compressibility of the rubber are ...

Abstract: The temperature distributions in full circular bearings were measured in a test rig. The effects of journal speed, lubricant viscosity, and clearance ratio on the maximum bearing temperature and ...

Abstract: The thermohydrodynamic performance of the bearing is analyzed, taking into account the three-dimensional variation of lubricant viscosity and density. The effect of pivot position and operating ...
