Abstract

This is the second part of the paper for a Non-Newtonian flow. Dual combined Finite Element Methods are used to investigate the littleparameter-dependent problem arising in a nonliner three field version of the Stokes system for incompressible fluids, where the viscosity obeys a general law including the Carreau's law and the Power law. Certain parameter-independent error bounds are obtained which solved the problem proposed by Baranger in [4] in a unifying way. We also give somestable finite element spaces by exemplifying the abstract B-B inequality. The continuous approximation for the extra stress is achieved as a by-product of the new method.
