Comprehensive treatise on gas bearing theory, design and
application This book treats the fundamental aspects of gas
bearings of different configurations (thrust, radial, circular,
conical) and operating principles (externally pressurized,
self-acting, hybrid, squeeze), guiding the reader throughout the
design process from theoretical modelling, design parameters,
numerical formulation, through experimental characterisation and
practical design and fabrication. The book devotes a substantial
part to the dynamic stability issues (pneumatic hammering,
sub-synchronous whirling, active dynamic compensation and control),
treating them comprehensively from theoretical and experimental
points of view. Key features: Systematic and thorough treatment of
the topic. Summarizes relevant previous knowledge with extensive
references. Includes numerical modelling and solutions useful for
practical application. Thorough treatment of the gas-film dynamics
problem including active control. Discusses high-speed bearings and
applications. Air Bearings: Theory, Design and Applications is a
useful reference for academics, researchers, instructors, and
design engineers. The contents will help readers to formulate a
gas-bearing problem correctly, set up the basic equations, solve
them establishing the static and dynamic characteristics, utilise
these to examine the scope of the design space of a given problem,
and evaluate practical issues, be they in design, construction or
testing.
