ANALYSIS OF DYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF SPHERICAL HYBRID SLIDING BEARINGS BASED ON ORIFICE THROTTLING (MT) by CHEN YuFei, SHEN JingFeng, ZHOU YiHao

“…The stiffness coefficient and damping coefficient of spherical sliding bearings are used to study the influence of supply pressure, rotating speed, average oil film clearance and other parameters on the dynamic characteristics coefficient of the bearing through numerical analysis. The results show that as the oil film clearance decreases and the oil supply pressure increases, the stiffness coefficient and damping coefficient will increase accordingly. …”
