... of the land and the circumferential angle of the land. Originality/value The mathematic model requires equivalent resistance of land edge – tilt position, tilt direction, tilt angle and the thickness of oil film instead of any digital iteration. Furthermore, a novel experimental apparatus including...

...R. Rashidi Meybodi; M. Zare Mehrjardi; A.D. Rahmatabadi Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study tilt angle effects as design parameters of noncircular bearings, on the linear dynamic analyses of micropolar lubricated circular, two, three and four lobe journal bearings. Design/methodology...
