The Carreau-Yasuda model is a popular formulation for representing non-Newtonian fluid behavior. The model is:
where γ& is the shear rate, μ0 is the viscosity at zero shear rate and μ∞ is the viscosity at infinite shear rate. One of the composite materials that the Carreau-Yasuda model has been used for is to determine the rheology of blood. Given the data below, fit the Carreau-Yasuda model and determine the values of the parameters.
