...Wang-Long Li A lubrication theory that includes the effects of electrokinetics and surface microstructure is developed. A porous layer attached to the impermeable substrate is used to model the microstructure on a bearing surface. The Brinkman-extended Darcy equations and Stokes equations...

... surface roughness lubrication theory elastohydrodynamic lubrication pleural space In the pleural, pericardial, and peritoneal cavities, organs slide against the body wall, their delicate mesothelial surfaces lubricated by an aqueous serosal liquid. The nature of the physical interaction...
