# On the anisotropic Orlicz spaces applied in the problems of continuum mechanics

• The paper concerns theory of anisotropic Orlicz spaces and its applications in continuum mechanics. Our main motivations are e.g. flow of non-Newtonian fluid and response of inelastic materials with non-standard growth conditions of the Cauchy stress tensor. The set of basic definitions and theorems with proofs is presented. We prove the existence of a weak solutions to the generalized Stokes system. Overview covering recent results in the referred topic is given.
