Mathematical modelling of thixotropic and antithixotropic fluids

In this thesis we consider two fundamental flow problems, the Stokes problem and flow in a slowly-varying channel, for complex fluids. Specifically, we investigate these problems for thixotropic and antithixotropic fluids described by Mewis and Wagner's [Advances in Colloid and Interface Scienc...
