In this study, we derive an analytical solution describing the magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow of a second grade fluid over a shrinking sheet. Both exact and series solutions have been determined. For the series solution, the governing nonlinear problem is solved using the homotopy analysis method. The convergence of the obtained solution is analyzed explicitly. Graphical results have been presented and discussed for the pertinent parameters.

This work describes the series solution of two-dimensional flow and heat transfer of a second grade fluid in the presence of radiation. The governing partial differential equations are reduced into ordinary differential equations by appropriate similarity tranformation. The series solutions of the resulting ordinary differential equations are obtained by using the homotopy analysis method (HAM). The convergence of the solution is discussed explicitly. The influence of pertinent parameters on the velocity and temperature is graphically displayed and discussed. Numerical values of the skin friction coefficient and the Nusselt number are also tabulated

An analysis has been carried out for the heat transfer on steady boundary layer flow of a secondgrade fluid bounded by a stretching sheet. The magnetohydrodynamic nature of the fluid is considered in the presence of Hall and ion-slip currents. The nonlinear mathematical problem is computed by a powerful tool, namely, the homotopy analysis method (HAM). A comparative study between the present and existing limiting results is carefully made. Convergence regarding the obtained solution is discussed. Skin friction coefficients and Nusselt number are analyzed. Effects of embedded parameters on the dimensionless velocities and temperature are examined

We investigated an axisymmetric unsteady two-dimensional flow of nonconducting, incompressible second grade fluid between two circular plates. The similarity transformation is applied to reduce governing partial differential equation (PDE) to a nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE) in dimensionless form. The resulting nonlinear boundary value problem is solved using homotopy analysis method and numerical method. The effects of appropriate dimensionless parameters on the velocity profiles are studied. The total resistance to the upper plate has been calculated.

Stagnation point flow of viscoelastic second grade fluid over a stretching cylinder under the thermal slip and magnetic hydrodynamics effects are studied. The mathematical model has been developed under the assumption of non-Newtonian viscoelastic fluid flow over a stretching cylinder by means of the boundary layer approximations. The developed model further reduced through the similarity transformations and constructs the model of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The system of nonlinear differential equations is dimensionless and solved through the numerical technique bvp5c methods. The results of the physical parameters are found and interpreted in the form of tables and graphs. The velocity shows that the graph of curves enhances away from the surface when the values material parameter [Formula: see text] increase, which means the momentum boundary layer increases for enhancing the material parameter [Formula: see text]. The temperature gradient reduced due enhancing the values of material parameter [Formula: see text] because thermal boundary layer reduced for higher values of material parameter [Formula: see text].
