From the ReynoldsĄ¯s equation of the above model, expressions for bearing characteristics like load capacity, friction on moving slider, coefficient of friction and centre of pressure are obtained which can be solved numerically to examine the exploration of its possible effects on the system. Various sizes of the porous matrix at both the ends are also discussed for the possible optimization of the bearing characteristics. %K Mathematical Modeling %K Ferrofluid %K Porosity %K Inclined Bearing %K Anisotropic Permeability %U http://article.sapub.org/10.5923.j.am.20120205.05.html
