The Kelvin–Voigt–Brinkman–Forchheimer Equations with Non-Homogeneous Boundary Conditions

We investigate the well-posedness of an initial boundary value problem for the Kelvin–Voigt–Brinkman–Forchheimer equations with memory and variable viscosity under a non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition. A theorem about the global-in-time existence and uniqueness of a strong solution of this problem is proved under some smallness requirements on the size of the model data. For obtaining this result, we used a new technique, which is based on the operator treatment of the initial boundary value problem with the consequent application of an abstract theorem about the local unique solvability of an operator equation containing an isomorphism between Banach spaces with two kind perturbations: bounded linear and differentiable nonlinear having a zero Fréchet derivative at a zero element. Our work extends the existing frameworks of mathematical analysis and understanding of the dynamics of non-Newtonian fluids in porous media.
