Linear wave theory for inviscid fluids gives a shallow water wave speed of c = (gy)^0.5. Is there an approximate solution that applies to viscous fluids? I am particularly interested in non-Newtonian fluids (sediment-water slurries). Can anyone point to experimental work on viscous/non-Newtonian fluids? Thanks!
