    110 Iteration Max

    I have a pretty complex nonlinear, static structural problem that I have simplified about as much as I can, before I start potentially affecting the validity of my results. After running 110 iterations in WB V.11, the solver just stopped. Based on the Force Convergence plot, it looks like the...

    Dry Journal Bearing Design & Projected Area

    I'm pretty sure that's what I'm looking for. What I was HOPING for was a generally used rule of thumb which, as you pointed out, would use the radii, material properties and force. I really appreciate your response.
