In this paper, an elastic sphere approaching a lubricated elastic coating surface with couple stress lubricant is explored under constant load condition. The finite difference method (FDM), Gaussian elimination, and Gauss-Seidel iteration method are used to solve the transient modified Reynolds equation with its boundary condition, the elasticity deformation equations of ball and coating layer, load balance equation, and lubricant rheology equations simultaneously. The transient pressure profiles, film shapes, and elastic deformation during the pure squeeze process under various operating conditions in the elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) regime are discussed.
