Surface roughness effects in dynamically loaded short bearings
The stochastic theory developed by \textit{H. Christensen} [SINTEF Res. Rept. No. 10/69-18 (1969)] is applied to the analysis of dynamically loaded short rough bearings. Approximate polynomial in place of Gaussian is used to represent the roughness height. To make the analysis applicable in real lubrication situations, it is assumed that the surface roughness and the minimum film thickness are of the same order. Attention is focussed on cyclic squeeze films under sinusoidal loading.
