The static and dynamic characteristics of annular recess conical hydrostatic bearings with capillary and orifice restrictors were studied. The effect of rotational lubricant inertia was allowed for. Computations for various aspect and resistance ratios and speeds are tabulated in a form useful to designers. © 1981.

A theoretical study of the characteristics of a multipad plane hydrostatic thrust bearing was made taking into account the effect of rotational lubricant inertia. Design data for the load capacity, flow and stiffness and damping characteristics were obtained for practically useful radius and resistance ratios for capillary and orifice compensation. © 1984.
