RESEARCH OF A MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF LOW-CONCENTRATED AQUEOUS POLYMER SOLUTIONS MIKHAIL V. TURBIN Received 12 March 2005; Accepted 10 July 2005 The initial-boundary value problem for the mathematical model of low-concentrated aqueous polymer solutions is considered. For this initial-boundary value problem a con- cept of a weak solution is introduced and the existence theorem for such solutions is proved. Copyright © 2006 Mikhail V. Turbin.

Introduction The study of fluid motion is a source of a large number of mathematical problems. Mo- tion of an incompressible fluid in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ Rn on a time interval [0, T], (T ∞) is described by the following system of equations in Cauchy’s form [3]: ∂v ∂v + vi + gradp = Div σ + f , (x, t) ∈ Ω × [0,T], ∂t ∂xi (1.1) div v = 0, (x, t) ∈ Ω × [0,T]. Hereinafter Einstein’s summation convention is supposed. In the given system v(x, t) is the velocity vector of the particle at a point x at an instant t; p = p (x, t) is the pressure of the fluid at a point x at an instant t; f = f (x, t) is the vector of body forces acting on the fluid; σ = (σij (x )) is the deviator of the stress tensor. By Div σ we denote the vector of divergences of columns of the matrix σ . The system of ( 1.1) describes formally the motion of all kinds of fluids. However the number of unknowns in this system is greater than the number of equations. To complete the given system one usually uses various relations between the deviator of the stress tensor σ and the strain rate tensor = (ij ),
