Nonstationary Poiseuille flow of a non-Newtonian fluid with the shear rate-dependent viscosity

Abstract

Abstract A nonstationary Poiseuille flow of a non-Newtonian fluid with the shear rate dependent viscosity is considered. This problem is nonlinear and nonlocal in time and inverse to the nonlinear heat equation. The provided mathematical analysis includes the proof of the existence, uniqueness, regularity, and stability of the velocity and the pressure slope for a given flux carrier and of the exponential decay of the solution as the time variable goes to infinity for the exponentially decaying flux.
