PIEZO-VISCOUS FLOWS OVER AN INCLINED SURFACE.

Stokes was the first to recognize that the viscosity of many fluids varies significantly with pressure. Later, several experimental studies showed that such a variation may be exponential. Here, by using the lubrication theory as revised by Rajagopal and Szeri, we study the flow of a piezo-viscous fluid down an incline in various flow regimes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
