This review paper provides an introduction to the issue of lubricated Hertzian contacts and related elastohydrodynamic regime of lubrication. It deals with recent advances in such contacts in more detail. Emphasis is placed on the effects of surface topography involving real roughness and artificial features. These problems are discussed on the basis of experiments carried out at Institute of Machine and Industrial Design, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Brno University of Technology.
