Non-Newtonian fluids are increasingly being transported by a varietyof vehicles. It has been observed that vehicles containing such fluidsdemonstrate behaviour which could be explained only by non-linearitycharacteristics of such fluids. In this paper small oscillations ofnon-Newtonian fluids in tanks are considered. A numerical methodsuitable for both Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids is suggested.Examples of numerical simulations with emphasis on Bingham fluids aregiven to demonstrate effects of non-linear properties
