Transient elastohydrodynamic squeeze film interaction

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi COMSOL geniuses,

I am trying to do exactly this with the Fluid Structure Interaction Module.

www.comsol.com/showroom/documentation/model/14109/

I am running a 2D axis symmetric simulation and would eventually like to turn this into 3D. I have prescribed a velocity for the sphere, yet it doesn't seem to have any interaction with the fluid. i.e.. no stress or fluid flow. If anyone has any pointers to get me on my way or knows where I can get a hold of the model shown in the link provided, I'd VERY much appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Josh
