Micropolar fluid flow and heat transfer over a nonlinearly stretching plate with viscous dissipation

The flow and heat transfer of a micropolar fluid past a nonlinearly stretching plate is studied numerically, by taking into account the viscous dissipation effect. It is assumed that the plate is stretched nonlinearly from the slot where it is issued. The governing system of partial differential e...
