In this paper, an analytical approximate solution for journal bearings of finite lengths is presented. The characteristic performances of steady loaded bearings, elastic and damping properties of oil-film, stability criteria and vibrations of a rotor-bearing system are studied. The results well agree with the Lund-Sternlicht's computer solutions and the experimental results.
