Equations are derived for the steady state problem of a foil moving relative to a drum with a geometric deviation from the perfectly circular shape. The fluid in the lubricating film is considered as incompressible and the foil as perfectly flexible but possessing mass. Numerical results are presented for the problem of a stationary foil stretched over a rotating circular drum with a flat.

The steady state problem of the planar hydrostatic foil bearing is analyzed and solved numerically. Two techniques of solution are used. One method is simulation in time with asymptotic approach to steady state. This is achieved by a preprocessor which automatically sets up the numerical computer program. The second method is an iterative shooting technique. The results agree well with one another. Curves of pressure and typical film thickness versus flow are presented.

We study the two-dimensional, steady-state problem of the scattering of waves in a homogeneous, isotropic, linear-elastic quarter space. We derive decoupled equations for the Fourier transforms of the normal and tangential displacements on the free surfaces. For incidence of a Rayleigh surface wave, we plot the amplitudes and phases of the surface waves reflected and transmitted by the corner. These curves were obtained numerically.

The steady-state problem of a magnetic fluid filling a porous annulus between two cylindrical walls under the influence of a nonuniform radially outward magnetic field has been investigated. The cylindrical walls are either electrically perfectly insulated or electrically perfectly conducting. The permeability of the porous annulus increases with its radial location. The governing partial differential equations were derived carefully and closed form solutions for the profiles of the velocity component and the induced magnetic component were obtained. The effect of the strength of the externally applied magnetic field, the permeability of the porous annulus, and the conductivity of the cylindrical walls were examined through the angular velocity components, as well as the induced magnetic field.
