This study deals with a numerical simulation of couple stress and poro-elasticity effects on hydrodynamic performances of squeeze film between infinitely long parallel plates. The lower plate is an elastic porous matrix saturated by a fluid film and its poro-elasticity is taken into account by the means of homogenization method. The modified Reynolds equation in the fluid film and the homogenized equations in the poro-elastic plate, discretized by finite differences method, are coupled using sequential algorithm and solved iteratively using Gauss-Seidel over-relaxation method.
