Abstract: The higher-order boundary conditions associated with the flow of an incompressible, nonlinear, bipolar viscous fluid in a bounded domain are derived; these boundary conditions differ from the various ad hoc sets of higher-order boundary conditions that have been used in work involving fluid dynamics models employing higher-order gradients of the velocity field. The derivation presented is based on a principle of virtual work and some deep results of Heron on higher-order traces of divergence-free vector fields.
