Accelerating Flow

An analytical study is presented which describes the laminar accelerating flow of a thin film falling along a vertical wall. The approximate mathematical solution is given with emphasis on the growth and decrease of the boundary layer and film thickness, respectively. These resultant solutions are given in closed form and are found dependent upon two-dimensionless variables: φ2=3U0νgh02 and ζ2=1+2gh0x¯U02.

Abstract An analysis is presented for the action of individual tire tread elements on polished sections of pavement covered by thin fluid films. Tread element flexibility, wheel slip, and time-dependent loading are incorporated. The effect of the lateral expansion of tread elements on groove closure is also studied.
