... new opportunities for improving the lubrication performance of journal bearings. Non-Newtonian plastic fluids exhibit extremely complex rheological properties, requiring a certain shear stress to flow. Among the various constitutive models of non-Newtonian fluids [ 1 ], the Bingham model...

...Chen Haosheng; Chen Darong The purpose of this paper is to provide a lubrication equation for non-Newtonian fluid. Three nonlinear functions instead of common power law model are used to describe non-Newtonian properties more completely. They are shear dependent viscosity, first normal stress...
