摘要
The characteristics of flow of Reiner-Philippoff fluid over a nonlinearly stretching sheet with variable thickness are investigated in this article. The similarity solution of associated boundary layer equation is obtained to examine the effects of non-uniform surface on the flow of Reiner-Philippoff fluid. It is worth mentioning that the skin friction is decreasing with non-uniform surface parameter. Furthermore, skin friction is an increasing function of Bingham number for dilatant fluid, a decreasing function for pseudo-plastic, and a constant function for viscous fluid.
