Abstract

The flow of an incompressible third-grade fluid over an infinite wall is considered. The flow is due to a variable shear stress. Both the series and the numerical solutions of the nonlinear partial-differential equation resulting from the momentum equation are obtained. Effects of non-Newtonian parameters on the flow phenomena are analyzed. It is found that with an increase in second-grade parameter and third-grade parameter, the velocity decreases and thus, the boundary-layer thickness increases.PACS No.: 47.15.cb
