    Abstract We investigate the influence of non-Newtonian micropolar fluids on the dynamic characteristics of wide tapered-land slider bearings. The study is carried out on the basis of the micro-continuum theory originally developed by Eringen (1966). Analytical expressions for the linear dynamic coefficients are provided and compared with earlier results in the literature. In particular, direct comparison with the Newtonian fluid-lubricated tapered-land bearings by Lin et al. (2006) indicates that the use of non-Newtonian micropolar fluids can lead to a significant increase in the values of stiffness and damping coefficients. Such improvements are found to be even More >
