Symmetry relations in viscoplastic drag laws

The following note shows that the symmetry of various resistance formulae, often based on Lorentz reciprocity for linearly viscous fluids, applies to a wide class of nonlinear viscoplastic fluids. This follows from Edelen's nonlinear generalization of the Onsager relation for the special case o...
