TLDR
In this paper, it is shown that if one of the two moving contact surfaces is either rough or deformed and thus cannot be assimilated to a plane, Reynolds equation takes on a different form which is not equivalent to the classical equation.About:

A general finite volume method for the solution of the reynolds lubrication equation with a mass-conserving cavitation model
Francisco J. Profito,Francisco J. Profito,Matteo Giacopini,Demetrio C. Zachariadis,Daniele Dini +4 more
TL;DR: Simulations of fully or partially textured sliding bearings are finally employed to show the advantages of being able to adopt irregular meshes both in terms of flexibility for the discretization of complex surface features and computational speed.

Power losses in the lubricating gap between cylinder block and valve plate of swash plate type axial piston machines
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of wave-like micro surface shape variation applied to the valve plate gap surface has on power loss in the cylinder block-valve plate interface, which is the primary source of energy dissipation in piston machines.

A generalized Reynolds equation for fluid-film lubrication
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized form of the Reynolds equation is developed which permits variation of relevant quantities across, as well as along, the lubricant film, and it can be reduced to any of the forms currently employed in the analysis of fluid-film bearings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stochastic Models for Hydrodynamic Lubrication of Rough Surfaces
TL;DR: In this article, two different forms of Reynolds-type equation corresponding to two different types of surface roughness are developed and the mathematical form of these equations is similar but not identical to the form of the Reynolds equation governing the behaviour of smooth, deterministic bearing surfaces.

Surface Roughness Effect on Slider Bearing Lubrication
S. T. Tzeng,Edward Saibel +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of roughness of surfaces of a slider bearing on the load-carrying capacity and friction force was studied, and the distinction between waviness and roughness was made between random quantities which may be characterized by a probability density function, determined experimentally.
