This paper is a state-of-the-art report on recent thermohydrodynamic analyses and designs of journal and thrust bearings. Recent papers published in journals and proceedings on tribology mostly in the 1990s are referred to. Bearings not only for turbomachinery but also for automotive engines are covered.
