We present a variational approach for the construction of Leray-Hopf solutions to the non-newtonian Navier-Stokes system. Inspired by the work OSS18 on the corresponding Newtonian problem, we minimise certain stabilised Weighted Inertia-Dissipation-Energy (WIDE) functionals and pass to the limit of a vanishing parameter in order to recover a Leray-Hopf solution of the non-newtonian Navier-Stokes equations. It turns out that the results differ depending on the rheology of the fluid. The investigation of the non-newtonian Navier-Stokes system via this variational approach is motivated by the fact that it is particularly well suited to gain insights into weak, respectively strong convergence properties for different flow-behaviour exponents and thus into possibly turbulent behaviour of the fluid flow. ...
