Asymptotic Analysis of a Bingham Fluid in a Thin Domain with Fourier and Tresca Boundary Conditions

Abstract

In this paper we prove first the existence and uniqueness results for the weak solution, to the stationary equations for Bingham fluid in a three dimensional bounded domain with Fourier and Tresca boundary condition; then we study the asymptotic analysis when one dimension of the fluid domain tends to zero. The strong convergence of the velocity is proved, and a specific Reynolds limit equation and the limit of Tresca free boundary conditions are obtained.
