Keywords:
non-Newtonian fluids; shear dependent viscosity; regularity; Hölder continuity of gradients
Summary:
We prove the existence of regular solution to a system of nonlinear equations describing the steady motions of a certain class of non-Newtonian fluids in two dimensions. The equations are completed by requirement that all functions are periodic.
