Lectures on Visco-Plastic Fluid Mechanics

The book is designed for advanced graduate students as well as postdoctoral researchers across several disciplines (e.g., mathematics, physics and engineering), as it provides them with tools and techniques that are essential in performing research on the flow problems of visco-plastic fluids. The following topics are treated: analysis of classical visco-plastic fluid modelsmathematical modeling of flows of visco-plastic fluidscomputing flows of visco-plastic fluidsrheology of visco-plastic fluids and visco-plastic suspensionsapplication of visco-plastic fluids in engineering sciencescomplex flows of visco-plastic fluids.
