Magnetohydrodynamic non-Newtonian fluid flow over a stretching sheet with intermittent thickness under multifarious slips is appraised. Williamson fluid pattern is incorporated in this discussion. The energy and concentration equations are confederated with the repercussion of Soret and Dufour. We endorsed homotopy analysis method (HAM) to collocate the solutions of ODE. The graphical and tabular results for velocity, temperature, concentration, friction factor, heat and mass transfer rates when (Newtonian fluid) and (non-Newtonian fluid-Williamson fluid) are secured and discussed in detail.

The influence of thermal radiation on a two-dimensional non-Newtonian fluid flow past a slendering stretching surface is investigated theoretically. Casson and Williamson fluid models are considered with Soret and Dufour effects. The transformed ODEs are solved numerically using the bvp5c Matlab package and dual solutions are executed for Casson and Williamson fluid cases. The influence of various parameters, namely, thermal radiation parameter, cross diffusion parameters and slip parameters on velocity, thermal and concentration distributions are discussed with the assistance of graphs. The local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are computed and presented through tables. It is observed that the influence of cross diffusion is higher on Williamson flow when equated with the Casson flow.
