Lectures on Visco-Plastic Fluid Mechanics

The book is designed for advanced graduate students as well as postdoctoral researchers across several disciplines (e.g., mathematics, physics and engineering), as it provides them with tools and techniques that are essential in performing research on the flow problems of visco-plastic fluids. The following topics are treated:analysis of classical visco-plastic fluid models
mathematical modeling of flows of visco-plastic fluids
computing flows of visco-plastic fluids
rheology of visco-plastic fluids and visco-plastic suspensions
application of visco-plastic fluids in engineering sciences
complex flows of visco-plastic fluids.
