FORCED FINITE-TIME BAROTROPIC INSTABILITY

The finite-time barotropic instability problem is modified by investigating the impact of an anomalous (steady) forcing on the development of optimal initial perturbations.Although the model considered is linear, due to the nonlinear optimization procedure the addition of a forcing can influence the initial disturbance.In particular, a quasi-geostr

This article aims to review the research findings in the field of surface texture on fixed pads, tilting pad thrust bearings and sliders.Numerical/computational and experimental explorations have been done by researchers to improve the performance behaviours by varying texture parameters such as the shape of texture, its depth, width, texture area
