We are interested in the existence of solutions to strongly nonlinear partial differential equations. We concentrate mainly on problems which come from dynamics of non-Newtonian fluids of a nonstandard rheology, more general then of power-law type, and also on some abstract theory of elliptic and parabolic equations. In considered problems the nonlinear highest order term (stress tensor) is monotone and its behaviour – coercivity/growth condition – is given with help of some general convex function. In our research we would like to cover both cases: sub- and super-linear growth of nonlinearity (shear thickening and shear tinning fluids) as well its anisotropic and non-homogenous behaviour. Such a formulation requires a general framework for the function space setting, therefore we work with non-reflexive and non-separable anisotropic Orlicz and Musielak-Orlicz spaces. Within the presentation we would like to emphasise problems we have met during our studies, their reasons and methods which allow us to achieve existence results.
