In this paper, the effect of surface roughness and pressure-dependent viscosity over couple-stresses squeeze film lubrication between circular stepped plates is studied. The modified average Reynolds equation is derived for the one-dimensional roughness structures, namely the radial roughness pattern and azimuthal roughness pattern. Modified equations for the nondimensional pressure, load-carrying capacity, and nondimensional squeeze film time are obtained. Also, the obtained results of our study for some special cases are compared with the previously published smooth surface case, and the results are found to be in very good agreement. It is observed that, one-dimensional azimuthal (radial) roughness pattern on the rough circular stepped plate increases (decreases) the load-carrying capacity and the squeeze film time as compared to the smooth case.

Squeeze film investigations focus upon film pressure, load bearing quantity and the minimum thickness of film. The combined effect of pressure viscous dependent and non- Newtonian couple stress in porous annular plate is studied. The modified equations of one dimensional pressure, load bearing quantity, non dimensional squeeze time are obtained. The conclusions obtained in the study are found to be in very good agreement compared to the previous results which are published. The load carrying capacity is increased due to the variation in the pressure dependent viscosity and also due to the couple stress effect. Finally this results in change in the squeeze film timings.

In this paper, the effect of PDV on the couple stress squeeze film lubrication between porous circular stepped plates is presented. Keeping the base of Christensen’s stochastic theory modified Reynolds equation is derived. Reynolds equation, fluid film pressure, squeeze film time and load carrying capacity are solved using standard perturbation technique. The results are tabulated and presented graphically for selected physical parameters and found that the squeeze effect is depleted in a porous bearing compared to its nonporous and increasing permeability has an adverse effect on the pressure, load carrying capacity and time of approach.
