 Hermenegildo Borges de Oliveira Mathematics , 2011, Abstract: In this work we investigate the existence of weak solutions for steady flows of generalized incompressible and homogeneous viscous fluids. The problem is modeled by the steady case of the generalized Navier-Stokes equations, where the exponent $q$ that characterizes the flow depends on the space variable: $q=q(\mathbf{x})$. For the associated boundary-value problem we prove the existence of weak solutions for any variable exponent $q\geq\alpha>\frac{2N}{N+2}$, where $\alpha=\mathrm{ess}\inf q$. This work improves all the known existence results in the sense that the lowest possible bound of $q$ is attained and no other assumption on the regularity of $q$ is required.
 Dominic Breit Mathematics , 2013, Abstract: We consider the equations of motion for an incompressible Non-Newtonian fluid in a bounded Lipschitz domain $G\subset\mathbb R^d$ during the time intervall $(0,T)$ together with a stochastic perturbation driven by a Brownian motion $W$. The balance of momentum reads as $$dv=\mathrm{div}\, S\,dt-(\nabla v)v\,dt+\nabla\pi \,dt+f\,dt+\Phi(v)\,dW_t,$$ where $v$ is the velocity, $\pi$ the pressure and $f$ an external volume force. We assume the common power law model $S(\varepsilon(v))=\big(1+|\varepsilon(v)|\big)^{p-2} \varepsilon(v)$ and show the existence of weak (martingale) solutions provided $p>\tfrac{2d+2}{d+2}$. Our approach is based on the $L^\infty$-truncation and a harmonic pressure decomposition which are adapted to the stochastic setting.
 Mathematics , 2015, Abstract: We develop the a posteriori error analysis of finite element approximations of implicit power-law-like models for viscous incompressible fluids. The Cauchy stress and the symmetric part of the velocity gradient in the class of models under consideration are related by a, possibly multi--valued, maximal monotone $r$-graph, with $\frac{2d}{d+1}  Mathematics , 2010, DOI: 10.1214/10-AAP741 Abstract: We consider a stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) which describes the velocity field of a viscous, incompressible non-Newtonian fluid subject to a random force. Here the extra stress tensor of the fluid is given by a polynomial of degree$p-1$of the rate of strain tensor, while the colored noise is considered as a random force. We investigate the existence and the uniqueness of weak solutions to this SPDE.  Mathematics , 2012, Abstract: We develop the analysis of finite element approximations of implicit power-law-like models for viscous incompressible fluids.
