Abstract: An analysis is presented which considers the influence of finite-wall conductance on the pressure distribution and load capacity of the magnetohydrodynamic slider bearing. The analysis is based ...

Abstract: An analysis is presented of the slider bearing using an electrically conducting lubricant, such as a liquid metal, in the presence of a magnetic field. The solution permits the calculation of ...

Abstract: The design and performance evaluation of an airbag system capable of decelerating masses in the range of hundreds to thousands of kilograms with impact velocities in the range of tens to ...
