Especially,a pressure positive feedback thrust bearing(PPFTB) and an actively controlled thrust bearing (ACTB) are proposed.It has been found that the two new types of bearings can increase the stiffness remarkably in a certain range of fluctuating load and have won wide applications in ultra-precision machines.展开更多
