On the relevance of analytical film thickness EHD equations for isothermal point contacts: Qualitative or quantitative predictions?
Abstract Thin film and elastohydrodynamic lubrication regimes are rather young domains of tribology and they are still facing unresolved issues. As they rely upon a full separation of the moving surfaces by a thin (or very thin) fluid film, the knowledge of its thickness is of paramount importance,...
