Efficient solution of the non-linear Reynolds equation for compressible fluid using the finite element method

An efficient finite element scheme for solving the non-linear Reynolds equation for compressible fluid coupled to compliant structures is presented. The method is general and fast and can be used in the analysis of airfoil bearings with simplified or complex foil structure models. To illustrate the computational performance, it is applied to the analysis of a compliant foil bearing modelled usi...

Accelerated Multigrid High Accuracy Solution of the Convection-diiusion Equation with High Reynolds Number

A fourth-order compact nite diierence scheme is employed with the multigrid algorithm to obtain highly accurate numerical solution of the convection-diiusion equation with very high Reynolds number and variable coeecients. The multigrid solution process is accelerated by a minimal residual smoothing (MRS) technique. Numerical experiments are employed to show that the proposed multigrid solver i...
