Stagnation-point flow over a stretching/shrinking sheet in a porous medium

An analysis is performed for the stagnation-point flow over a stretching/shrinking sheet in a porous medium. By using similarity variables, the governing system of partial differential equations are reduced to the coupled ordinary differential equations before being solved numerically using a Maple...
