Squeeze film

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to model a silicon box with an applied pressure on it. Of course, the pressure is supposed to give a deformation of the plate on the top. Till there it was ok!!!!!
The problem is that inside the box there is air. How can i model the squeeze effect of the gas?
I estimate that at over a certain pressure on the top plate the deformation stops because of the opposite pressure of the gas.
Thanks in advice
