“…While increasing the load‐carrying capacity, the bumps at the pressure‐falling section also increase the friction force. According to Arif et al 35 findings, the combination of micro‐texture, slip boundary condition, and a sensible choice of lubricant rheology helps to increase the stability of the hydrodynamic lubrication film in journal bearings. Some studies by Elsharkawy and Guedour, 36 Sharma et al, 37 Rajput et al, 38 and Haque and Guha 39 revealed various geometrical imperfections, non‐circularity of the bearing, the various shapes of the journal like the barrel, undulated circumferential shape, and bellmouth, convex, concave bearing, and 2–4 lobe bearing with wear and misalignment affecting the bearing's performance.…”
