In this paper we present a new mathematical model for Bingham-like materials in which the core behaves as a visco-elastic Maxwell fluid. We deduce the model in a general 3D framework, using a thermodynamical approach based on the theory of natural configurations. We apply the model to the case of a plane Poiseuille flow driven by a time-dependent pressure gradient. The mathematical formulation of the latter case turns out to be a free boundary problem in which a parabolic equation and a dissipative wave equation are coupled together.

Abstract

In this paper we present a new mathematical model for Bingham-like materials in which the core behaves as a visco-elastic Maxwell fluid. We deduce the model in a general 3D framework, using a thermodynamical approach based on the theory of natural configurations. We apply the model to the case of a plane Poiseuille flow driven by a time-dependent pressure gradient. The mathematical formulation of the latter case turns out to be a free boundary problem in which a parabolic equation and a dissipative wave equation are coupled together.
