DOI: 10.1016/j.ijmecsci.2018.01.031
Abstract: Abstract In lubrication theory, the cross-film pressure variation is assumed negligible. It is questionable whether this is generally true. To validate this assumption, a finite-element software was used to solve the Navier-Stokes equations for plane… read more here.
