Theory of nonstationary flows of Kelvin-Voigt fluids

Abstract

One proves the global unique solvability in class$W_\infty ^1 (0,T;C^{2,d} (\bar \Omega ) \cap H(\Omega ))$ of the initial-boundary-value problem for the quasilinear system

$$\frac{{\partial \vec \upsilon }}{{\partial t}} + \upsilon _k \frac{{\partial \vec \upsilon }}{{\partial x_k }} - \mu _1 \frac{{\partial \Delta \vec \upsilon }}{{\partial t}} - \int\limits_0^t {K(t - \tau )\Delta \vec \upsilon (\tau )d\tau + grad p = \vec f,di\upsilon \bar \upsilon = 0,\upsilon , > 0.}$$

This system described the nonstationary flows of the elastic-viscous Kelvin-Voigt fluids with defining relation

$$\left( {1 + \sum\limits_{\ell = 1}^L {\lambda _\ell } \frac{{\partial ^\ell }}{{\partial t^\ell }}} \right)\sigma = 2\left( {v + \sum\limits_{m = 1}^{L + 1} {\user2{\ae }_m } \frac{{\partial ^m }}{{\partial t^m }}} \right)D,L = 0,1,2,...;\lambda _L ,\user2{\ae }_{L + 1} > 0.$$
