integrals required for the determination of P and M' are tabulated below
film thickness, / = c + e cos 0,
where e is the eccentricity and c is the radial clearance.

Using the given notation and substituting for p in eqn (2.144), the load pe
unit length of journal is given by

Writing cos@'= — 3ec/(2c +e ) and e/c = e, this becomes

Proceeding in a similar manner the applied couple M' becomes
