Abstract
The present paper deals with non-Newtonian viscoelastic flows of Oldroyd-B type in thin domains. Such geometries arise for example in the context of lubrication. More precisely, we justify rigorously the asymptotic model obtained heuristically by proving the mathematical convergence of the Navier–Stokes/Oldroyd-B system towards the asymptotic model.
