摘要
This paper investigates the time independent unidirectional flow of a fourth grade fluid filling the porous half space. Flow modelling is based upon a modified Darcy's law. Travelling wave and conditional symmetry Solutions are developed. The graphs are plotted and discussed for the sundry parameters. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
