Quantitative Compressibility Effects in Thermal Elastohydrodynamic Circular Contacts by Habchi, W.

“…It is also observed that the relative errors on central film thicknesses induced by the use of the Dowson and Higginson relationship for compressibility increase with load and temperature and are very little affected by mean entrainment speed. Compressibility is shown to be a significant source of error in film-derived measurements of pressure-viscosity coefficients especially at high temperature. …”
