AB - This paper adopts Rotem and Shinnar’s modification of the Rabinowitsch fluid  model for the one-dimensional non-Newtonian lubrication problem, a  variational principle is established by the semi-inverse method, and a  generalized Reynolds-type equation is obtained. This article opens a new  avenue for the establishment of Reynolds-type equation of complex  lubrication problems.
