In this paper, a theoretical analysis of the effect of surface roughness on the squeeze film lubrication of finite porous journal bearings with micropolar fluids is studied. A more generalized form of surface roughness is mathematically modeled by a stochastic random variable with non-zero mean, variance and skewness. The generalized average Reynolds type equation is derived for the squeeze film lubrication of finite rough porous journal bearings with micropolar fluids as lubricant. The closed form expressions are obtained for the fluid film pressure, load carrying capacity, journal centre velocity and locus of the journal centre. The cases of a constant applied load and an alternating applied load are analyzed under a cyclic load the micropolar fluids provide a reduction in the journal centre velocity. Further, it is numerical computations of the results show that the negatively skewed surface roughness pattern increase fluid film pressure, load carrying capacity and decreases the journal centre velocity. Where as adverse effects were found for the positively skewed surface roughness pattern. The effect of porous parameter causes reduction in fliud film pressure, load carrying capacity and enhances the journal centre velocity.
