Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the effect of surface roughness on the magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) non-parallel squeeze film lubrication using non-Newtonian lubricant. Design/methodology/approach Based on the MHD thin film lubrication theory and the Stokes theory and homogenization method, the homogenized MHD Reynolds equation is derived considering the squeezing effect. Findings It is found that the obtained results indicate that the interaction among non-Newtonian, MHD and surface roughness influences is significant. Originality/value This study is original which compares the dimensionless load capacity and dimensionless response time among transverse, longitudinal and, for the first time, anisotropic surface roughness types under magneto-hydrodynamic non-Newtonian non-parallel squeeze film lubrication.

On the basis of the Christensen stochastic theory, the effects of isotropic surface roughness upon the bifurcation behaviour of a short journal-bearing system are investigated. By applying the Hopf bifurcation theorem to the non-linear equations of motion of rough journal bearings, the steady-state performance, the linear characteristics, and the weakly non-linear bifurcationphenomenaarepresented. For the short bearing with length-to-diameter ratio l = 0. 5, the onset of oil-whirl rough bearing system can manifest a bifurcation behaviour exhibiting subcritical limit cycles or super-critical limit cycles for running speeds near the bifurcation point. For a particular system parameter, the effects of isotropic surface roughness are found to enlarge the size of sub-critical limit cycles and super-critical limit cycles when the Hopf bifurcation occurs. On the whole, the roughness effects of isotropic surface patterns upon the Hopf bifurcation phenomena of the short-bearing system are more pronounced for a smaller system parameter ( p = 0. 4 in the sub-critical region and Sp = 0. 05 in the super-critical region) and a higher roughness parameter (Λ = 0. 4).
