Abstract
We show that a weak solution for unsteady 3D shear thickening flows becomes a strong solution, for \({2\le p<\frac{11}{5}}\), provided that the velocity field u belongs to the critical space
Here \(\Omega \) is \(\mathbb {R}^3\) or the periodic domain \([0, 1]^3\). The main ingredient is to prove and use a variant of Gagliardo–Nirenberg’s inequality including the terms \(\Vert u\Vert _{\alpha }\) and \(\Vert |\mathcal {D}u|^{\frac{p-2}{2}} \nabla ^2 u\Vert _{2}\), where \(\mathcal {D}u\) is the deformation rate tensor.
