In the present thesis, we examine the pressure-driven flow of a thixotropic elastoviscoplastic fluid (TEVP) through a cylindrical pipe. Although this flow has been studied extensively in fluid mechanics with yield stress materials and Newtonian fluids, recent studies have stressed the importance of...
