Download or read book On the Analytical and Experimental Investigation of a Hydrostatic Axisymmetric Compliant-surface Thrust Bearing written by V. Castelli and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper presents experimental and theoretical data on the axisymmetric hydrostatic thrust bearing with one bonded compliant surface. The theoretical results are exact and are based on linear elasticity theory. The effects of compliance on the behavior of the thrust bearing are discussed and illustrated. (Author).
