On the modified Reynolds equation for journal bearings in a case of non-Newtonian Rabinowitsch fluid model

In this paper, a theoretical analysis of hydrodynamic plain journal bearings with finite length at taking into account the effect of non-Newtonian lubricants is presented. Based upon the Rabinowitsch fluid model (cubic stress constitutive equation) and by integrating the continuity equation across t...
