general stress-strain relation for fluid

Is it possible to define a general stress-strain relation for non-Newtonian laminar flow? Laminar flow seems to require you to define a dynamic viscosity. However I am trying to implement a flow law with a complicated stress-strain relation that does not yield a simple analytical equation for viscosity (see attached). Is it possible to define fluid properties more generally (other than externally solving for viscosity as a function of strain rate and then inputting an interpolation function for the viscosity)?

Hi Claire,
Thanks for posting. This sort of discussion is better for the COMSOL Support portal. Just go to www.comsol.com/support and submit a new case. You can have an in-depth technical discussion there.
