Effect of Surface roughness on nanoscale adhesion was studied experimentally by using colloidal probe technique. Glass micro balls having the radius of $3.3\~17.4{\mu}m$ were glued at the end of AFM cantilevers to prepare colloidal probes. Adhesion force between the colloidal probe and Si-wafer was measured using pull-off force measuring method. Results showed that the measured adhesion forces are not the function of the radius of the glued balls because the ball surfaces are rough. It is also found that roughness parameters such as $R_a,\;R_q\;and\;R_{max}$ do not have important role on nanoscale adhesion. In order to find the effect of surface roughness on nanoscale adhesion, the bearing areas were extracted from the measured topography of glued balls. After normalizing the measured adhesion force with the bearing area, it was found that the normalized adhesion force kept constant as function of the radius of glued ball.

This paper presents the hydrodynamic effect by the journal speed, eccentricity and source positions in order to overcome the defects of air bearing such as low stiffness and damping coefficient. Choosing the two row source position of air bearing is different from existing investigations in the side of pressure distribution of air film because of the high speed of journal and the wedge effects by the eccentricity. These optimal choices of the two row source positions enable us to improve the performance of the film reaction force and loading force as making the high-speed spindle. In this paper, The pressure behavior in theory of air film in high speed region of journal according to the eccentricity of journal and the source positions analyzed. The theoretical analysis has been identified by experiments. The results of investigated characteristics may be applied to precision devices like ultra-precision grinding machine and ultra high-speed milling.

The CWR of the plate girder bridges in non-ballast causes the additional axial force on the rail and the bearing due to the temperature axial force and the interaction between the CWR and bridges. This study shows the remarkable improvement of reducing the axial force of the CWR on the non-ballast bridge, compared to conventional methods. New method, which is differently designed in terms of longitudinal semi-rigid bearing, reduces the axial force on the bearing by making the girder act both directions. This method is applicable to most cases of bridges regardless of the restriction of length, and useful to reduce the abrasion and damage of the track material.

The paper presents an analytical investigation of the unbalance vibrations of a pump rotor. The analysis applies to rotor-bearing-seal-impeller systems which consist of rigid disks, distributed parameter rotor elements and discreate bearings, seals, and impellers. The dynamic hydraulic force of bearing, seal and impeller elements are represented by four stiffness coefficients arid four damping coefficients. Numerical results are presented for unbalance response associated with various kinds bearing, and with effects of seal and impeller forces.

The hydrostatic slipper bearing is generally used in high pressure axial piston pumps to support the load generated from two surfaces which are sliding relatively at low speed. The object of the bearing is to remove the possibility of direct contact by maintenance of an adequate oil film thickness between two metal surfaces. Because the bearing performance is influenced by the bearing deformation, it is highly dependent on the injection pressure, the bearing surface profile and so on. In this study, the deformation characteristics of a hydrostatic slipper bearing is investigated according to the injection pressure by the finite element analysis. In the analysis, the special boundary condition to take the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) into account is used on the interactive surface. The results, such as bearing deformation, stress and lifting force, obtained from the fully coupled analysis are compared with those from the single step sequential method.

Since MEMS based micro actuators or generating devices have high efficiency per volume, plenty of research are ongoing. Among them, MEMS based millimeter-scale micro gas' turbine is one of the most powerful issue for replacing chemical batteries. However, since limiting of MEMS manufacturing technique, it is very difficult that makes wide turbine bearing area. It causes low DN number, so sufficient bearing force is hard to achieve. Thus, the most important issue on micro gas turbine is proper bearing design which can keep rotor stable during operation. In order to that, micro-scale gas-lubricated bearing is generally used. In this paper, basic feasibility study and design of journal bearing for 10mm diameter micro gas turbine is described Journal bearing is hydrostatic gas-lubricated type. Numerical simulation is performed with ANSYS CFX 11.0 which is commercial numerical tool. Repulsive force when there is radial displacement in bearing and returning time is calculated using steady and unsteady cases. Auto re-meshing technic is used for moving mesh unsteady cases which simulate displacement of axis and its movement. The simulation results are used for further design of micro gas turbine, and experiment will be done later.

The motion of journal in a bearing is considered separately as rotation and translation, and then the equations of motion are derived. The bearing load capacities for these motions are calculated from the lubrication theory. The numeric integration of the equations of motion gives various journal orbit depending on force cycles and bearing parameters.
