Heat transfer analysis in nanofluids is an active research field due to its extraordinary physical and chemical properties. In the current study, the focus lies on the effects of Stefan blowing when a non-Newtonian Casson base fluid flows over a surface which stretches linearly. A uniform transverse magnetic field is employed. The chemical reaction in the fluid with activation energy and radiation effects have also been engaging the attention. Fundamental laws of conservation are employed to model governing equations of flow. Similarity transform is introduced to reduce the said system of partial differential equations to ordinary differential equations which are in turn tackled analytically using Homotopy Analysis Method with genetic algorithms to optimise the series solution. The impact of pertaining parameters on the dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration were presented explicitly. This study relevant to remedies for malign tissues, cells or clogged arteries of the heart.

In this research paper, the Homotopy Analysis Method is used to investigate the twodimensional electrical conduction of a magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) Jeffrey Fluid across a stretching sheet under various conditions, such as when electrical current and temperature are both present, and when heat is added in the presence of a chemical reaction or thermal radiation. Applying similarity transformation, the governing partial differential equation is transformed into terms of nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations. The Homotopy Analysis Method is used to solve a system of ordinary differential equations. The impact of different numerical values on velocity, concentration, and temperature is examined and presented in tables and graphs. The fluid velocity reduces as the retardation time parameter(2) grows, while the fluid velocity inside the boundary layer increases as the Deborah number () increases. The velocity profiles decrease when the magnetic parameter M is increased. The results of this study are entirely compatible with those of a viscous fluid. The Homotopy Analysis Method calculations have been carried out on the PARAM Shavak high-performance computing (HPC) machine using the BVPh2.0 Mathematica tool.

Entropy generation in bioconvection two-dimensional steady incompressible non-Newtonian Oldroyd-B nanofluid with Cattaneo–Christov heat and mass flux theory is investigated. The Darcy–Forchheimer law is used to study heat and mass transfer flow and microorganisms motion in porous media. Using appropriate similarity variables, the partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations which are then solved by homotopy analysis method. For an insight into the problem, the effects of various parameters on different profiles are shown in different graphs.

In this paper, the homotopy analysis method is applied to solve linear fractional problems. Based on this method, a scheme is developed to obtain approximation solution of fractional wave, Burgers, Korteweg-de Vries (KdV), KdV-Burgers, and Klein-Gordon equations with initial conditions, which are introduced by replacing some integer-order time derivatives by fractional derivatives. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. So the homotopy analysis method for partial differential equations of integer order is directly extended to derive explicit and numerical solutions of the fractional partial differential equations. The solutions are calculated in the form of convergent series with easily computable components. The results of applying this procedure to the studied cases show the high accuracy and efficiency of the new technique.

Introduction: In this article Optimal Homotopy analysis method (oHAM) is used for exploration of the features of Cattaneo-Christov model in viscous and chemically reactive nanofluid flow through a porous medium with stretching velocity at the solid/sheet surface and free stream velocity at the free surface. Methods: The two important aspects, Brownian motion and Thermophoresis are considered. Thermal radiation is also included in present model. Based on the heat and mass flux, the Cattaneo-Christov model is implemented on the Temperature and Concentration distributions. The governing Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) are converted into Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) using similarity transformations. The results are achieved using the optimal homotopy analysis method (oHAM). The optimal convergence and residual errors have been calculated to preserve the validity of the model. Results: The results are plotted graphically to see the variations in three main profiles i.e. momentum, temperature and concentration profile. Conclusion: The outcomes indicate that skin friction enhances due to implementation of Darcy medium. It is also noted that the relaxation time parameter results in enhancement of the temperature distribution. Thermal radiation enhances the temperature distribution and so is the case with skin friction.

A modifiedq-homotopy analysis method (mq-HAM) was proposed for solvingnth-order nonlinear differential equations. This method improves the convergence of the series solution in thenHAM which was proposed in (see Hassan and El-Tawil 2011, 2012). The proposed method provides an approximate solution by rewriting thenth-order nonlinear differential equation in the form ofnfirst-order differential equations. The solution of thesendifferential equations is obtained as a power series solution. This scheme is tested on two nonlinear exactly solvable differential equations. The results demonstrate the reliability and efficiency of the algorithm developed.
