Adjoint error estimation for elastohydrodynamic lubrication

In this thesis, adjoint error estimation techniques are applied to complex elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) problems. A functional is introduced, namely the friction, and justification is provided as to why this quantity, and hence its accuracy, is important. An iterative approach has been taken...
