Dynamic behaviour and stability analysis of a compensated aerostatic pad

Thanks to their low friction, aerostatic pads have important applications in precision positioning systems and linear guides. A simple and cheap solution to increase the static stiffness of aerostatic pads is to add a proper designed pneumatic valve to regulate the air flow supplied to the bearing....
