Abstract

In this paper, we analyse the asymptotic system corresponding to a thin film flow with two different (immiscible) fluids, from theoretical and numerical points of view. We also compare this model to the Elrod-Adams one, which is the reference model in tribology, when cavitation phenomena occur.
