"A New Analytical Procedure to Solve the Stretching Sheet
                                 Boundary Layer Equations”
 

 

Abstract  

 Stretching sheet boundary layer equation in a simplest problem  is  basically  an inhomogeneous Falkner-Skan   equation  and the variants of this due to the selection of the continuum liquid involve seemingly complicated non-linear equations that throw up questions of uniqueness of solution. An assortment of problems involving a horizontal or vertical sheet stretching in different liquid media will be considered to demonstrate the new analytical procedure of solving both uncoupled and coupled stretching sheet boundary layer equations.
