Accuracy Evaluation of Experimentally Derived Dynamic Coefficients of Fluid Film Bearings Part I: Development of Method

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that bearing coefficients are entirely subject to test conditions, meaning not only sensor accuracy but also where in an orbit data is taken, and that stiffness coefficients had about an order of magnitude less uncertainty in their evaluation than damping coefficients.
