Description:
This investigation deals with the stability characteristics of oil journal bearings, including the effect of elastic distortions in the bearing liner. Graphical results are presented for (1) steady-state load, (2) stiffness and damping coefficients, and (3) the stability. These results are given for various slenderness ratios, eccentricity ratios, and elasticity parameters. The lubricant is first assumed to be isoviscous. The analysis is then extended to the case of a pressure-dependent viscosity. It has been found that stability decreases with increase of the elasticity parameter of the bearing liner for heavily loaded bearings.
