Abstract:The effect of the surface elastic deformation is investigated by the multiscale approach in the hydrodynamic wedge-platform thrust bearing with the ultra low clearance on the 1nm scale, by incorporating both the non-continuum pure adsorbed layer flow and the multiscale “sandwich” film flow. The pure adsorbed layer flow in ultra small surface separations is described by the non-continuum nanoscale flow equation; The “sandwich” film flow is described by the multiscale flow equations respectively for the adsorbed… Show more
