Slow flow of a Bingham fluid in a gap of slowly varying width
The slow Poiseuille flow of a Bingham fluid in an infinitely long gap of slowly varying width is considered. A consistent analytical theory is developed using a lubrication scaling without deviating from the Bingham model. It is shown that for sufficiently small gap width variations there is a ri...

The slow Poiseuille flow of a Bingham fluid in an infinitely long gap of slowly varying width
is considered. A consistent analytical theory is developed using a lubrication scaling without
deviating from the Bingham model. It is shown that for sufficiently small gap width variations
there is a rigid plug zone around the center of the gap. A numerical treatment of the problem
is also presented using the method of augmented Lagrangian. |
