General solutions for the unsteady free convection flow of an incompressible viscous fluid due to an infinite vertical plate that applies a shear stress f (t) to the fluid are established when thermal radiation and porous effects are taken into consideration. They satisfy all imposed initial and boundary conditions and can generate a large class of exact solutions corresponding to different motions with technical relevance. The velocity is presented as a sum of thermal and mechanical components. Finally, some special cases are brought to light, and effects of pertinent parameters on the fluid motion are graphically underlined.
