Abstract
We review an argument of Renardy proving existence and regularity for a subset of a class of models of
non-Newtonian fluids suggested by Oldroyd, including the upper-convected and lower-convected Maxwellian models. We propose an effective method for solving these models, including a variational formulation suitable for finite element computation.
