This paper proposes the design of a self-sensing compensating restrictor/pad module for hydrostatic bearings. The module consists of a bearing pad and the associated restrictor featuring the characteristics of self-sensing compensation and easy installation. The paper first introduces the configuration of the proposed module. Then, the lumped parameter model was used to derive the equation for the relationship between the pocket pressure and the bearing gap. Furthermore, equations governing the stiffness and load-carrying capacity of the bearing were also obtained. Influences of the design parameters, such as the land length and pressure ratio, on bearing performance and the feasibility of the new design were studied both analytically and experimentally. Results of the theoretical analysis were compared with that of the experiment. Superior performances on the aspects of stiffness and load-carrying capacity, as well as time delay due to the distance between restrictor and bearing pad to the traditional restrictors such as capillary and orifice were achieved. In addition, the proposed restrictor possesses the advantages of simplicity for both manufacturing and assembly in comparison with the membrane-type restrictors.

Bearing Design

A theoretical investigation is made to predict the performance of an externally pressurized air journal bearing having several pressure sources. The pressure distribution, which leads to the determination of load-carrying capacity and flow requirement, is obtained by solving Reynolds equation numerically. The load and flow, expressed in non-dimensional parameters, are presented for different bearing design parameters (dimensionless). The results predicted by this method are compared with others' experimental data.

The Relationship

This paper aims at detailed investigation on the relationship between half-cell potentials and load carrying capacity of corroded RC beam-column joints. There are four specimens in the test with the corrosion rate to 0%, 3%, 9% and 15%. Results show that the potentials of normal joint are larger than that of corroded damaged joints. As the corrosion rate of joints increases, load carrying capacity and half-cell potentials decrease. Analytical method based on the values of half-cell potentials to evaluate the load carrying capacity of corroded joint is presented. Comparing the analytical and experimental results, the proposed method can predict the load carrying capacity of corroded reinforced concrete beam-column joints.

Carrying capacity is the most important performance index for slewing bearings. Maximizing the carrying capacity of slewing bearing is one pursuing goal for the bearing designer; this is usually realized by optimizing the design parameters. A method of analyzing the carrying capacity of double-row four-point contact ball slewing bearing by using dynamic carrying capacity surfaces was proposed in this paper. Based on the dynamic load carrying capacity surface of the slewing bearing, the effect of changes of the bearing design parameters, such as axial clearance, raceway groove radius coefficient, and contact angle, on the dynamic carrying capacity of the slewing bearing was researched; the trend and the degree of the effect of the micro changes of the bearing design parameters on the dynamic load carrying capacity of the bearing were discussed, and the results provide the basis for optimizing the design parameter of this type of slewing bearing.

The Relationship

A mass-conservative algorithm that implements the Jakobsson–Floberg–Olsson cavitation theory is used to predict the performances of seal-like structures and thrust bearings with a dimpled surface texture. The results of a series of simulations for load-carrying capacity, film thickness, dimple depth, dimple density, cavitation pressure, leakage, and friction force are presented, and the relationship between these performance parameters is studied. It is shown that, under the conditions simulated, surface roughness can improve the load-carrying capacity, but its effect is limited.

The features of micropolar fluid (a non-Newtonian fluid)–lubricated short single-layered porous hydrostatic journal bearing are analyzed theoretically by an iterative method. To investigate hydrostatic journal bearing characteristics, a modified Reynolds equation in the case of micropolar fluid is derived and solved numerically. The obtained results in this work are validated by comparing the same with previously published results with Newtonian and non-Newtonian lubricants in the form of design charts. The static stiffness and load-carrying capacity of the investigated bearing are 80% and 75% higher than conventional hydrostatic bearings. The porous hydrostatic journal bearing exhibits more economical performance as it requires 40% low flow rate and low pump power, and it generates 50% less heat in contrast with other hydrostatic bearings.

The post-tensioning method has been successfully used to improve the performance of existing concrete structures. Applications of the method are rare in steel structures, however. Post-tensioning using high-strength cables or bars can be effectively used to increase the working load carrying capacity of steel structures. In this paper, the elastic behavior of post-tensioned trusses with straight and draped tendon profiles for truss strengthening is examined. The effects of design parameters such as the tendon profile, truss type, prestressing force, and tendon eccentricity on working load and deflection of trusses are studied. The results show that the allowable load of a truss increases proportionally with the increase in prestressing force and eccentricity. Post-tensioning enlarges the elastic range, increases the redundancy, and reduces the deflection and member stresses, eventually increasing the load-carrying capacity of truss bridges.Key words: post-tensioning method, steel structures, post-tensioned trusses, truss strengthening, design parameters, load-carrying capacity.
