Tilting Pad Journal Bearing Ball and Socket Pivots: Experimental Determination of Stiffness

Tilting pad journal bearings (TPJB) are used in turbomachinery for their stability at high speeds. For design purposes, it is necessary to preliminarily investigate the turbomachine rotor dynamic behavior by simulation. The dynamic characteristics of all components must be known as precisely as poss...
