## Large time behavior to the system of incompressible non-Newtonian fluids in $$\mathbb{R}^2$$.(English)Zbl 1059.35104

From the text: We consider the optimal decay rate of global solutions to the Cauchy problem for two-dimensional non-Newtonian fluids $u_t-\Delta u+ (u\cdot\nabla)u- \nabla\cdot (|e(u)|^{p-2}e(u))+ \nabla\pi= 0,$
$\nabla\cdot u=0, \qquad u(x,0)= u_0.$ It is proved that the weak solutions decay in $$L^2$$ norm at $$(1+t)^{-1/2}$$ and the estimate for the decay rate is sharp in the sense that it coincides with the decay rate of a solution to the heat equation.
