MHD flow of a visco‐elastic fluid through porous medium

Abstract

Here an attempt has been made to study the MHD flow of a dusty, electrically conducting, visco‐elastic Rivlin‐Ericksen fluid starting from the rest with time‐dependent types applied at the free surface. The analytical expression for velocity profiles of the fluid and dust particles have been found by using the Laplace transform technique. Finally the effects of magnetic field time, elastic parameter and mass concentration of dust particles are discussed with the help of graphs and tables.
