Dual solutions for unsteady boundary layer flow of nanofluids over stretching/shrinking surfaces and stability analysis

There are five unsteady boundary layer flow problems being considered which involved the regular flow, rotating boundary layer flow, the stagnation-point flow over a linear and an exponential stretching/shrinking surface which the flows pass through a flat or a cylindrical surfaces. Besides, the...
