Abstract
The cubic interpolated propagation (CIP) method, which is an effective numerical scheme for differential equations that include advection and nonadvection terms, is employed for the dynamic analyses of ultra thin gas film lubrication using the molecular gas-film lubrication equation. First, pressure generation caused by the running wavy disk under the fixed slider was analyzed by the CIP method and is found to agree well with the analytical solution for the running wavy disk with a small amplitude. 2-DOF slider dynamics with the spacing of several tens of nanometers caused by a running disk with projections were investigated by the CIP method and the linearized solutions, which show that both results agree well with each other and the CIP method is promising scheme for slider dynamics even in the near-contact region.
