Squeezing flow has many applications in different fields including chemical, mechanical, and electrical engineering as these flows can be observed in many hydrodynamical tools and machines. Due to importance of squeezing flow, in this paper, an unsteady squeezing flow of a viscous magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid which is passing through porous medium has been modeled and analyzed with and without slip effects at the boundaries. The least squares homotopy perturbation method (LSHPM) has been proposed to determine the solutions of nonlinear boundary value problems. To check the validity and convergence of the proposed scheme (LSHPM), the modeled problems are also solved with the Fehlberg–Runge–Kutta method (RKF45) and homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and residual errors are compared with LSHPM. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, the current problems have not been attempted before with LSHPM. Moreover, the impact of different fluid parameters on the velocity profile has been examined graphically in slip and no-slip cases. Analysis shows that the Reynolds number, MHD parameter, and porosity parameter have opposite effects in case of slip and no slip at the boundaries. It is also observed that nonzero slip parameter accelerates the velocity profile near the boundaries. Analysis also reveals that LSHPM provides better results in terms of accuracy as compared to HPM and RKF45 and can be effectively used for the fluid flow problems.

In this study, a combination of the hybrid Chebyshev spectral technique and the homotopy perturbation method is used to construct an iteration algorithm for solving nonlinear boundary value problems. Test problems are solved in order to demonstrate the efficiency, accuracy and reliability of the new technique and comparisons are made between the obtained results and exact solutions. The results demonstrate that the new spectral homotopy perturbation method is more efficient and converges faster than the standard homotopy analysis method. The methodology presented in the work is useful for solving the BVPs consisting of more than one differential equation in bounded domains.

We present a new modification of the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) for solving nonlinear boundary value problems. The technique is based on the standard homotopy perturbation method, and blending of the Chebyshev pseudospectral methods. The implementation of the new approach is demonstrated by solving the Jeffery-Hamel flow considering the effects of magnetic field and nanoparticle. Comparisons are made between the proposed technique, the standard homotopy perturbation method, and the numerical solutions to demonstrate the applicability, validity, and high accuracy of the present approach. The results demonstrate that the new modification is more efficient and converges faster than the standard homotopy perturbation method.

In this current work, the heat transfer analysis for the unsteady squeezing flow of a viscous nanofluid between two parallel plates considering Fourier heat flux model have been explored. The partial differential equations representing flow model are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations by introducing a similarity transformation. The dimensionless and nonlinear ordinary differential equations of the velocity and temperatures functions obtained are solved by employing The Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). The results found in this peper are verified by comparing it with the results obtained using the numerical method RK4, The results obtained are agree with this numerical solution. The effects of different parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles are examined graphically, and numerical calculations for the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are tabulated. It is found an excellent agreement in the comparative study with literature results.

We present a new modification of the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) for solving nonlinear boundary value problems. The technique is based on the standard homotopy perturbation method and blending of the Chebyshev pseudospectral methods. The implementation of the new approach is demonstrated by solving the MHD Jeffery-Hamel flow and the effect of MHD on the flow has been discussed. Comparisons are made between the proposed technique, the previous studies, the standard homotopy perturbation method, and the numerical solutions to demonstrate the applicability, validity, and high accuracy of the presented approach. The results demonstrate that the new modification is more efficient and converges faster than the standard homotopy perturbation method at small orders. The MATLAB software has been used to solve all the equations in this study.

We use the homotopy perturbation method for solving the fractional nonlinear two-point boundary value problem. The obtained results by the homotopy perturbation method are then compared with the Adomian decomposition method. We solve the fractional Bratu-type problem as an illustrative example.

The present paper analyses the unsteady 2‐dimensional flow of a viscous MHD fluid between two parallel infinite plates. The two infinite plates are considered to be approaching each other symmetrically, causing the squeezing flow. A similarity transformation is used to reduce the partial differential equations modeling the flow, to a single fourth‐order non‐linear differential equation containing the Reynolds number and the magnetic field strength as parameters. The velocity functions are obtained for a range of values of both parameters by using the homotopy perturbation method. The total resistance to the upper plate is presented.
