Modelling of an EHL problem involves description of the fluid part, of the solid part and of the elastohydrodynamic coupling [11,12]. The fluid part is conveniently modelled using the classical Reynolds equation. In the classical EHL theory, the solid part is modelled using the linear elasticity framework. Furthermore, the elasticity problem is usually formulated for a half-space for which specialized solution techniques are available. While both assump- tions (linear elasticity and half-space approximation) are fully adequate for hard-EHL problems, this is not necessarily so in the case of soft-EHL problems due to geometrical and material non- linearities that are associated with the finite deformations and finite configuration changes.
