Reduction of Boundary Value Problem using Shape Function

Abstract

This research looks at the MHD flow of a power-law fluid on a stretched sheet with a uniform heat source. The boundary shape function technique translated the resulting Couple of Nonlinear Ordinary Differential equations (BVP) with boundary conditions into a related initial value problem (IVP). The BVP's solution is represented by the boundary shape function (BSF), and a further new variable is the free function. With the right method, the initial value of the problem may be numerically solved.’
