4. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE
