Abstract: This paper is concerned with regular flows of incompressible weakly viscoelastic fluids which obey a differential constitutive law of Oldroyd type. We study the newtonian limit for weakly viscoelastic fluid flows in $R^N$ or $T^N$ for $N=2,3$, when the Weissenberg number (relaxation time measuring the elasticity effect in the fluid) tends to zero. More precisely, we prove that the velocity field and the extra-stress tensor converge in their existence spaces (we examine the Sobolev-$H^s$ theory and the Besov-$B_2^{s,1}$ theory to reach the critical case $s=N/2$) to the corresponding newtonian quantities. These convergence results are established in the case of "ill-prepared"' data.We deduce, in the two-dimensional case, a new result concerning the global existence of weakly viscoelastic fluids flow. Our approach makes use of essentially two ingredients : the stability of the null solution of the viscoelastic fluids flow and the damping effect,on the difference between the extra-stress tensor and the tensor of rate of deformation, induced by the constitutive law of the fluid.
