Dual solutions of forced convection flow along a stretching sheet with variable thickness in presence of free stream and magnetic field

The paper aims at studying forced convection in a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid along stretching sheet with variable thickness in the presence of variable free stream and magnetic field. The governing equations of flow and heat transfer are subjected to similarity transformati...
