On a Navier-Stokes type equation and inequality

Abstract

A Navier–Stokes type equation corresponding to a non-linear relationship between the stress tensor and the velocity deformation tensor is studied and existence and uniqueness theorems for the solution, in the 3-dimensional case, of the Cauchy–Dirichlet problem, for a bounded solution and for an almost periodic solution are given. An inequality which in some sense is the limit of the equation is also considered and existence theorems for the solution of the Cauchy–Dirichlet problems and for a periodic solution are stated.
