Can I read TFA Modelling Strategy in Tribology on EtoBox?

TFA Modelling Strategy in Tribology by Alex Cooper is a document available to read on EtoBox.

What is TFA Modelling Strategy in Tribology about?

1) The document describes a thin film approximation (TFA) modeling strategy for tribology applications using scientific computing. 2) It involves setting up and solving a 2nd order differential equation for fluid film thickness using finite difference methods (FDM) in both Cartesian and Polar coordinate systems. 3) Comparisons are made between the FDM solutions and analytical solutions for various bearing geometries, showing good agreement even for moderate aspect ratios.
