An aerostatic pad with an internal pressure control

Because of their almost zero friction and wear, aerostatic pads are widely used in applications where very precise positioning is required. However, this kind of bearing suffers from poor damping and low specific stiffness. This paper presents a new compensation strategy to increase air pad stiffnes...
