Analysis of the effects of flexibility on the lubrication of a loaded journal bearing. Results presented for (a) the pressure distributions ill the oil film, (b) the thickness oariation of the film, (c) the magnitude and direction of the load applied to the bearing, and (d) the frictional forces in the bearing. Calculations to date are usually made using one of three sets of boundary conditions known, respectively, as the Sommerfeld, Half-Summerfeld, and Reynolds conditions.
