Abstract
The influence of three-dimensional diffusion at lateral edges of an electrodiffusion sensor of friction is analysed by the method of singular perturbations for PeL ≫ 1. It is shown that lateral diffusion at PeL ≫ 1 has a more pronounced effect than longitudinal diffusion at the back edge of the sensor, which has hitherto been exclusively considered.
