Development of Air lubrication system and verification by the full scale ship test
In late years, a demand for the carbon dioxide discharge reduction from a ship and the reduction of the operation cost has been risen more and more. According to these backgrounds, the authors are grappling with establishment of the frictional resistance reduction technology of the ship by means of the air lubrication methods.

A Systems Approach to the Solid Lubrication of Foil Air Bearings for Oil-Free Turbomachinery [PDF]
Foil air bearings are self-acting hydrodynamic bearings which rely upon solid lubricants to reduce friction and minimize wear during sliding which occurs at start-up and shut-down when surface speeds are too low to allow the formation of a hydrodynamic air film. This solid lubrication is typically accomplished by coating the nonmoving foil surface with

Development of a Cryogenic Tester with Air Bearing to Test Sliding-Rolling Contact Friction
This study aimed to test the friction coefficient of cryogenic bearing lubrication materials. A ball-on-disc type friction tester was developed in our lab using air bearings that could simulate the movement of cryogenic bearings under sliding-rolling ...

Numerical investigation of a novel device for bubble generation to reduce ship drag
For a sailing ship, the frictional resistance exerted on the hull of ship is due to viscous effect of the fluid flow, which is proportional to the wetted area of the hull and moving speed of ship.
