How to calculate load carrying capacity using matlab code for journal bearing ?

After discretization of Reynold's equation, found pressure at each node in journal bearing. Now to found load carrying capacity we need to integrate pressure P(I,J) *cos thetha(I,J) .We need the loop to apply the integration.

[recent works]

function load_carrying_capacity = integrate_pressure(pressure, theta)

"""

Integrates the pressure over the bearing area.

Args:

pressure: The pressure at each node in the bearing.

theta: The angle at each node in the bearing.

Returns:

The load carrying capacity of the bearing.

"""

load_carrying_capacity =

0

for i = 1:size(pressure, 1)

for j = 1:size(pressure, 2)

load_carrying_capacity = load_carrying_capacity + pressure(

i, j) * cos(theta(i, j))

end

return load_carrying_capacity

To use this code, you would first need to define the arrays pressure and theta. You could do this by reading the data from a file or by calculating it using a numerical method.

Once you have defined these arrays, you could then call the function integrate_pressure() to calculate the load carrying capacity of the bearing.

pressure = [1 2 3; 4 5 6]

theta = [0 1 2; 3 4 5]

load_carrying_capacity = integrate_pressure(pressure, theta)
