A hyper-viscosity numerical method for the interaction of a shear-dependent fluid with a rigid body

We present a numerical method for the simulation of the motion of rigid bodies in incompressible generalized Newtonian fluids. This work is motivated by the study of some physiological phenomena occurring in the human cardiovascular system where the bodies may be blood particles, clots or valves tha...
