Abstract: This paper applies the recently introduced Reynolds stress expression (Tieu and Kosasih, 1992) in the transition-turbulent lubrication analysis. The Reynolds stress is modeled using the mixing ...

Abstract: This paper proposes an alternative model of Reynolds stresses for turbulent lubrication theory. The approach relies on Prandtl’s mixing length theory which is based on a modified Van Driest ...

Abstract: Recently a model of Reynolds stress in turbulent lubrication theory was proposed by Tieu and Kosasih (1992) based on a modified Van Driest mixing length formula. It was developed from a study ...
