Abstract
A computer solution is developed in terms of matrix algebra in which the equations of a slider bearing are analyzed which include the inertia, turbulent, and viscous terms. For small values of turbulence the results indicate that the dominant term after the viscous term is the inertia term, and the inclusion of the Reynolds turbulent stress term actually causes a slight decrease in load capacity. A numerical example is considered which clearly indicates that the inertia effects alone can be considerable and cannot be neglected. The role of turbulence effects is still undecided.
