The flow in the bearing clearance is considered with inertia forces. The equations of motion are solved by an averaged inertia method. As a result , the formulae for pressure distributions without and with inertia effects were obtained. Radial thrust bearings and spherical bearings are discussed as numerical examples. It is shown that inertia effects influence the bearing performance considerably."]
