A viscoelastic fluid model is allowed to undergo weakly nonlinear perturbation. There is no viscoelasticity in the lowest-order solution. What does it mean? What does it lead to?
The perturbed fluid model gets reduced into a third-order nonlinear differential equation in a lowest-order. It is free from from viscoelasticity. Higher-order terms are not, however. Can you give some references with examples in this regard? .
