Asymptotic Modeling of the Thin Film Flow with a Pressure-Dependent Viscosity

We study the lubrication process with incompressible fluid taking into account the dependence of the viscosity on the pressure. Assuming that the viscosity-pressure relation is given by the well-known Barus law, we derive an effective model using asymptotic analysis with respect to the film thicknes...
