Design/methodology/approach - The static characteristics of an annular-thrust aerostatic porous bearing were studied using a fast finite element scheme. The pressure distribution, radial load and thrust load were analyzed as functions of the arc, permeability and eccentricity. Findings - The results reveal that the radial load achieves maximal values at an optimal arc value between ...
