EHD Film Thickness in Non-Steady State Contacts
TL;DR: In this paper, a modification of ultrathin film interferometry is employed which is able to measure both central film thickness and film thickness profiles 50 times a second, and the results demonstrate a range of transient behaviors of EHD film whose thicknesses deviate from those in steady state conditions.

Elastohydrodynamic Film Collapse During Rapid Deceleration. Part I—Experimental Results
Romeo Glovnea,Hugh Spikes +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a study of the behavior of elastohydrodynamic lubricated contacts subjected to rapid halting is presented, where experiments have been carried out using ultrathin interferometry coupled to a high-speed camera to measure the change in lubricant film thickness and shape during fast, controlled deceleration, both in pure sliding and pure rolling conditions.
