Steady and unsteady Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) boundary layer flows and heat transfer over stretching surfaces / Zanariah Mohd Yusof

Study on the influence of the magnetic field, radiation and porous medium on the heat transfer is very important in controlling the problems that occur in industrial manufacturing processes and a final product of desired characteristics can be achieved. In this study, three problems of boundary laye...
