On the Two-Scale Modelling of Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication in Tilted-Pad Bearings

A two-scale method for modelling the Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication (EHL) of tilted-pad bearings is derived and a range of solutions are presented. The method is developed from previous publications and is based on the Heterogeneous Multiscale Methods (HMM). It facilitates, by means of homogenizatio...
