EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH ON FOIL HYDRODYNAMIC AIR BEARING by LONG Chao, ZHANG YueChun, PENG RuiTao, HU YuNong

“…Because of its superior dynamic performance, it is widely used in high-speed turbine machinery, high-precision machine tools, aviation, aerospace, national defense and other high-end equipment fields. The foil hydrodynamic air bearing uses the air as the lubricating medium, according to the principle of dynamic pressure lubrication, a certain relative velocity should be reached between the journal and the bearing, so that the dynamic pressure film formed can overcome the radial force of the rotor and make the journal and bearing separate from the mechanical contact, that is, the rotational speed should reach the takeoff velocity of the foil hydrodynamic air bearing. …”

Normal Reflection Characteristics of One-Dimensional Unsteady Flow Shock Waves on Rigid Walls from Pulse Discharge in Water by Dong Yan, Jinchang Zhao, Shaoqing Niu

“…Strong shock waves can be generated by pulse discharge in water, and the characteristics due to the shock wave normal reflection from rigid walls have important significance to many fields, such as industrial production and defense construction. This paper investigates the effects of hydrostatic pressures and perturbation of wave source (i.e., charging voltage) on normal reflection of one-dimensional unsteady flow shock waves. …”
