Theoretical performance of foil journal bearingsA modified forward iteration approach for the coupled solution of foil bearings is presented. The method is used to predict the steady state theoretical performance of a journal type gas bearing constructed from an inextensible shell supported by an elastic foundation. Bending effects are treated as negligible. Finite element methods are used to predict both the foil deflections and the pressure distribution in the gas film.
