Dual solutions and stability analysis of a hybrid nanofluid over a stretching/shrinking sheet executing MHD flow

In this paper, the unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of hybrid nanofluid (HNF) composed of Cu−Al2O3 /water in the presence of a thermal radiation effect over the stretching/shrinking sheet is investigated. Using similarity transformation, the governing partial differential equations (PDEs) are...
