Acoustic Levitation - A Novel Alternative to Traditional Lubrication of Contacting Surfaces

Fundamental aspects and mechanisms of acoustic levitation together with governing equations are presented first. Then, the acoustic levitation phenomenon is considered as a new way to design air suspension systems capable of self-levitation. A particular emphasis is on journal bearings and their spe...
