The stiffness of static pressure spindles and slides is affected by the phenomenon of fluid-structure interaction (FSI). Many methods have been proposed to calculate the stiffness with FSI considered. However, the influence of FSI on stiffness is still unknown. This paper studies the lateral stiffness of an aerostatic slide. The relationship between the lateral stiffness of the aerostatic slide, the lateral bearings, and the solid structure is deduced. According to the relationship, this paper proposes a theory that reveals the influence mechanism of FSI on the stiffness of static pressure spindles and slides. The proposed theory is also valid for the normal stiffness of the aerostatic slide and the thrust stiffness of an aerostatic spindle.
