A Theory of Lubrication by Microirregularities

Journal of Basic Engineering, 1966
This paper describes a theory of liquid lubrication applicable to parallel surfaces, such as the surfaces of a rotary-shaft face seal. The lubrication mechanism presented is based on surface microirregularities and associated film cavities. Closed-form analytical solutions are obtained giving load capacity as a function of speed, viscosity, and surface-

On the granular lubrication theory

Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2005
The governing equations for the flow of a granular material within the context of the lubrication theory are derived. The resulting analysis gives a generalized Reynolds equation that predicts the pressure generation capacity in a bearing with consideration of side flow. A series of simulations are presented that characterize the three-dimensional flow
