We consider the question of existence of weak solutions for the fully inhomogeneous, stationary generalized Navier–Stokes equations for homogeneous, shear-thinning fluids. For a shear rate exponent p∈(2dd+1,2), previous results require either smallness of the norm or vanishing of the normal component of the boundary data. In this work, combining previous methods, we propose a new, more general smallness condition.
