摘要
In this paper, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Casson fluid flow in two lateral directions past a porous linear stretching sheet is investigated. Self-similar solutions are obtained and compared with the available data for special cases. It is found that the present results are in an excellent agreement with the available data. The dimensionless velocities and shear stresses are obtained in both directions. Pertinent results are presented graphically and discussed quantitatively with respect to variation in Casson flow parameter as well as other fluid flow parameters.
