A study of squeezing flow

TL;DR: In this article, an approximate iterative solution of the continuity and momentum equations is derived for the instantaneous distribution of velocity within the fluid and the reaction on the surfaces of parallel surfaces, and the results obtained should be of interest in connection with the study of the performance of transiently loaded bearings in reciprocating engines.
