This paper presents the effect of preload on static and dynamic performance characteristics of several gas-lubricated noncircular journal bearing configurations. The linearized system approach using finite element method is used to obtain both steady state and dynamic characteristics. The results of the investigation shows that preload has a significant effect on frictional power loss and the ...

The static stability of the extratropical troposphere is examined in two atmospheric general circulation models (GCM’s) over idealized boundary conditions, with emphasis on the role of moisture in determining the midlatitude stability. The determination of the static stability is compared within two models: an idealized moist model with simplified representations of radiative transfer and other...

[1] Using a new reanalysis data set, the seasonal cycle of the midlatitude tropospheric static stability is examined. Dry and moist static stability measures are analyzed as a function of latitude, longitude, and season. It is shown that in both the Northern (NH) and Southern Hemispheres (SH), dry and moist static stability averaged over the midlatitudes maximizes in December–February. Examinin...

We construct spherically symmetric static solutions of the Einstein-Klein-Gordon-Euler system involving a complex scalar field governed by periodic potential that emerges in models axionlike particles and fermionic matter modeled perfect fluid with polytropic equation state. Such describe gravitationally bound composites fermions axions, which we dub fermion-axion stars. Sequences pure axion st...
