摘要：

This paper reports the hydromagnetic stagnation point flow of thixotropic nanofluid towards an impermeable stretching surface. Effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis are present. Heat and mass transfer analysis is performed in the presence of viscous dissipation, Joule heating and convective boundary conditions. Meaningful transformations are utilized to obtain nonlinear ordinary differential systems. Convergent solutions of the resulting differential systems are presented in series forms. Moreover the numerical values of skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are computed and analyzed. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
