ON THE 2ND SOLUTION OF FLOW OF VISCOELASTIC FLUID OVER A STRETCHING SHEET

For the boundary layer how of a viscoelastic fluid caused by the stretching of a sheet, it is demonstrated that, besides the well-known solution, a second solution exists for all nonzero values of k, the viscoelastic fluid parameter. This solution is obtained in closed form. It exhibits an oscillatory behavior with the oscillations increasing as k approaches the value zero.
