Couple Stress Squeeze Films with VPD in a Curved Circular Geometry

الملخص EN

The problem of couple stress squeeze films considering viscosity pressure dependence (VPD) has been analysed in a curved circular geometry.

Using Stokes microcontinuum theory and the Barus formula, the Reynolds type equation has been derived.

The approximate analytical expressions for the squeeze film pressure and load carrying capacity are obtained using a perturbation technique.

The numerical solutions for the squeeze film pressure and load carrying capacity are presented for the sinusoidal motion of the upper curved disk, assuming an exponential form for the curvature.

The effects of curvature, the non-Newtonian couple stresses, and VPD and their combined effects are investigated through the squeeze film pressure and the load carrying capacity of the squeeze film.
