The lubricant properties have a significant influence on the static and dynamic performance
characteristics of journal bearing such as load-carrying capability, minimum fluid film …

This article presents the applicability of the microcontinuum theories to the fluid in sliding
surfaces. The classical continuum mechanics fails to predict the accurate results when the …

The tribological characteristic of journal bearing systems can be enhanced with the
integrating of textures in the contact interfaces, or using the lubricating effect of non …

Reducing friction losses is one of the most common ways to improve fluid film bearings,
whose adjustable design provides additional opportunities to improve their dynamic and …

The viscous dissipation of micropolar lubricant results in temperature increase of holeentry
hybrid journal bearing. Thermohydrostatic (THS) performance characteristics are computed …

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present the effect of the preload on the static
characteristics of three-lobe bearings lubricated with a fluid blended with high polymer …

This article deals with the steady and dynamic performance analysis of rough surface
circular and multi-lobe journal bearings operating with non-Newtonian lubricant in turbulent …

This study investigates the effects of texture on the static characteristics of a four-lobe
bearing in turbulence flow state. Three texture arrangements and four texture shapes are …

This study investigates the combined effect of offset factor and depths of a dimple on the
performance parameters of hydrodynamic two-lobe journal-bearings. The finite element …

Purpose The aim of the present paper is to study the combined influence of textured surface
and micropolar lubricant behaviour on the performance of two-lobe hole-entry hybrid journal …
