ATTRACTORS FOR A LATTICE DYNAMICAL SYSTEM GENERATED BY NON-NEWTONIAN FLUIDS MODELING SUSPENSIONS

In this paper we consider a lattice dynamical system generated by a parabolic equation modeling suspension flows. We prove the existence of a global compact connected attractor for this system and the upper semicontinuity of this attractor with respect to finite-dimensional approximations. Also, we obtain a sequence of approximating discrete dynamical systems by the implementation of the implicit Euler method, proving the existence and the upper semicontinuous convergence of their global attractors.
