Abstract: The traditional harmonic excitation method was modified to estimate 16 dynamic force coefficients of two misaligned journal bearings. To avoid the effects of different running conditions on the ...

Abstract: This paper solves the Reynolds equation by the finite difference method in a fixed coordinate system with the static load acted in the vertical direction. All static and dynamic characteristics ...

Abstract: The characteristics of two misaligned journal bearings were experimentally studied. A bearing test rig was developed. The experimental journal was freely alignable in two possibly misaligned journal ...

Abstract: A cold rolling model, based on Wilson and Chang’s asperity flattening model and von Mises homogenous deformation model, for mixed film lubrication is developed. A more rigorous average Reynolds ...
