Global weak solutions to a class of non-Newtonian compressible fluids. (English) Zbl 1335.35180

Summary: We consider a class of compressible fluids with nonlinear constitutive equations that guarantee that the divergence of the velocity field remains bounded. We study mathematical properties of unsteady three-dimensional flows of such fluids in bounded domains. In particular, we show the long-time and large-data existence result of weak solutions with strictly positive density.
