... hand, the pool lubrication provides a smooth mechanism with the help of a thin lubrication film, and consequently, good results were observed. In addition, the oil used in the pool environment is always between the ball and the wear specimen material, so the formation of a thin-film layer is more...

... be attributed to its lower roughness. The surface morphology of a thin film can generally be described by a Gaussian self-affine fractal with a long wavelength cutoff. Such a model gives a surface height–height correlation function [ 33 ] of (1) C ( r ) = λ 2 exp [ - ( | r...

...Guy Bayada; Laurent Chupin; Sébastien Martin In this paper, an asymptotic expansion is used to derive a description of Phan–Tien– Tanner (PTT)/Oldroyd-B flows in the thin film situation without the classical “upper convective maxwell”(UCM) assumption. We begin with a short presentation of the Phan...
