In this paper, the squeeze-film lubrication theory between two isotropic porous rectangular plates has been advanced to analyse the effects of couple stresses arising due to the presence of microstructure additives in the lubricant, using the Stokes theory of couple-stress fluids. The most general form of the modified Reynolds equation is derived for the squeeze-film lubrication of the porous rectangular plates by taking into account of the velocity slip at the porous interface. An eigentype of expression is obtained for the squeeze-film pressure. The effects of the isotropic permeability, the couple stresses and the velocity slip parameters on the characteristics of the squeeze-film lubrication are discussed. A significant increase in the load-carrying capacity and the delayed squeeze-film time are observed for the couple-stress fluids in comparison with Newtonian fluids.
