Prerequisite: MATH 323 , MATH 361A , MATH 364A . Recommended: MATH 470 . Variational forms and weak solutions of partial ... The performance of a cylindrical bore bearing fed by two axial grooves orthogonal to the load line is analyzed by solving the Navier-Stokes equations. We introduce a new methodology for modeling problems with both weak and strong discontinuities independently of the finite element discretization.
