Summary A pivoted porous slider bearing was analysed by considering the uppersurface to have a convex pad. Expressions for the pressure, load-carrying capacity, centre of pressure, friction and coefficient of friction were obtained in integral form. The load-carrying capacity, friction and coefficient of friction of the bearing with a convex pad surface are greater than those of the corresponding bearing with a flat surface.
