AbstractVery recently, Liao has invented a Directly Defining Inverse Mapping Method (MDDiM) for nonlinear differential equations. Liao’s method is novel and can be used for solving several problems arising in science and engineering, if we can extend it to nonlinear systems. Hence, in this paper, we extend Liao’s method to nonlinear-coupled systems of three differential equations. Our extension is not limited to single, double or triple equations, but can be applied to systems of any number of equations.

This article addresses MHD nanofluid flow induced by stretched surface. Heat transport features are elaborated by implementing double diffusive stratification. Chemically reactive species is implemented in order to explore the properties of nanofluid through Brownian motion and thermophoresis. Activation energy concept is utilized for nano liquid. Further zero mass flux is assumed at the sheet’s surface for better and high accuracy of the out-turn. Trasnformations are used to reconstruct the partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. Homotopy analysis method is utilized to obtain the solution. Physical features like flow, heat and mass are elaborated through graphs. Thermal stratified parameter reduces the temperature as well as concentration profile. Also decay in concentration field is noticed for larger reaction rate parameter. Both temperature and concentration grows for Thermophoresis parameter. To check the heat transfer rate, graphical exposition of Nusselt number are also discussed and interpret. It is noticed that amount of heat transfer decreases with the increment in Hartmann number. Numerical results shows that drag force increased for enlarged Hartmann number.

The current analysis deals with radiative aspects of magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow with heat mass transfer features on electrically conductive Williamson nanofluid by a stretching surface. The impact of variable thickness and thermal conductivity characteristics in view of melting heat flow are examined. The mathematical formulation of Williamson nanofluid flow is based on boundary layer theory pioneered by Prandtl. The boundary layer nanofluid flow idea yields a constitutive flow laws of partial differential equations (PDEs) are made dimensionless and then reduce to ordinary nonlinear differential equations (ODEs) versus transformation technique. A built-in numerical algorithm bvp4c in Mathematica software is employed for nonlinear systems computation. Considerable features of dimensionless parameters are reviewed via graphical description. A comparison with another homotopic approach (HAM) as a limiting case and an excellent agreement perceived.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate a three-dimensional boundary layer flow with considering heat and mass transfer on a nonlinearly stretching sheet by using a novel operational-matrix-based method. Design/methodology/approach The partial differential equations that governing the problem are converted into the system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with considering suitable similarity transformations. A direct numerical method based on the operational matrices of integration and product for the linear barycentric rational basic functions is used to solve the nonlinear system of ODEs. Findings Graphical and tabular results are provided to illustrate the effect of various parameters involved in the problem on the velocity profiles, temperature distribution, nanoparticle volume fraction, Nusselt and Sherwood number and skin friction coefficient. Comparison between the obtained results, numerical results based on the Maple's dsolve (type = numeric) command and previous existing results affirms the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method. Originality/value The motivation of the present study is to provide an effective computational method based on the operational matrices of the barycentric cardinal functions for solving the problem of three-dimensional nanofluid flow with heat and mass transfer. The convergence analysis of the presented scheme is discussed. The benefit of the proposed method (PM) is that, without using any collocation points, the governing equations are converted to the system of algebraic equations.

The magneto-hemodynamic laminar flow of a conducting incompressible viscous nanofluid (blood) through a channel of slowly varying width under a transverse magnetic is investigated using perturbation and numerical methods. For this purpose, Buongiorno’s model is employed for the analysis in four different channels namely, convergent, divergent, locally constricted and wavy channels. Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation is used and the partial differential equations are solved using perturbation series method. For validation, the governing differential equations are also solved numerically. Both perturbation and numerical results are compared and are found in good agreement. The effects of pertinent parameters on the fluid flow, heat and mass transfer in the selected channels are analyzed for special cases. The results show that both thermal and solutal Richardson numbers have opposite behaviour for skin friction, heat and mass transfer in each channel.


The objective of the present study is to investigate the transport of hydrocarbons with chemical reaction due to oil flow through the subsurface. The coupled nonlinear differential equations governing the flow and mass transfer are simplified using perturbation technique and solved numerically. The dimensionless velocity and concentration profiles are depicted graphically and discussed for the effects of the parameters involved.

This paper reports multiple slip effects on MHD unsteady flow heat and mass transfer over a stretching sheet with Soret effect; suction/injection and thermal radiation are numerically analyzed. We consider a time-dependent applied magnetic field and stretching sheet which moves with nonuniform velocity. Suitable similarity variables are used to transform governing partial differential equations into a system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The transformed equations are then solved numerically by applying an implicit finite difference method with quasi-linearization technique. The influences of the various parameters on the velocity temperature and concentration profiles as well as on the skin friction coefficient and Sherwood and Nusselt numbers are discussed by the aid of graphs and tables.

Abstract In the present paper, bioconvective stagnation point flow of nanofluid containing gyrotactic microorganisms over a nonlinearly stretching sheet embedded in a porous medium is considered. The scaling group transformation method is introduced to obtain the similarity transformation to convert the governing partial differential equations to a set of ordinary differential equations. The reduced governing nonlinear differential equations are then solved numerically with Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg method. Differential transform method is employed to justify the results obtained by the numerical method. It is found that both the results matched nicely. It is noticed that the density of motile microorganism distribution grows high with an increase in the values of the bioconvection Peclet number. Further, the rate of heat transfer and the rate of mass transfer increase rapidly with an increment in the thermophoresis parameter, heat source parameter, chemical reaction parameter, and Brownian motion parameter, respectively. This work is relevant to engineering and biotechnological applications, such as in the design of bioconjugates and mass transfer enhancement of microfluidics.

The present study emphasizes the combined effects of double stratification and buoyancy forces on nanofluid flow past a shrinking/stretching surface. A permeable sheet is used to give way for possible wall fluid suction while the magnetic field is imposed normal to the sheet. The governing boundary layer with non-Fourier energy equations (partial differential equations (PDEs)) are converted into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using similarity transformations. The approximate relative error between present results (using the boundary value problem with fourth order accuracy (bvp4c) function) and previous studies in few limiting cases is sufficiently small (0% to 0.3694%). Numerical solutions are graphically displayed for several physical parameters namely suction, magnetic, thermal relaxation, thermal and solutal stratifications on the velocity, temperature and nanoparticles volume fraction profiles. The non-Fourier energy equation gives a different estimation of heat and mass transfer rates as compared to the classical energy equation. The heat transfer rate approximately elevates 5.83% to 12.13% when the thermal relaxation parameter is added for both shrinking and stretching cases. Adversely, the mass transfer rate declines within the range of 1.02% to 2.42%. It is also evident in the present work that the augmentation of suitable wall mass suction will generate dual solutions. The existence of two solutions (first and second) are noticed in all the profiles as well as the local skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number graphs within the considerable range of parameters. The implementation of stability analysis asserts that the first solution is the real solution.

We show that the cubic theta functions satisfy two distinct coupled systems of nonlinear differential equations. The resulting relations are analogous to Ramanujan's differential equations for Eisenstein series on the full modular group. We deduce the cubic analogs presented here from trigonometric series identities arising in Ramanujan's original paper on Eisenstein series. Several consequences of these differential equations are established, including a short proof of a famous cubic theta function identity derived by J. M. Borwein and P. B. Borwein.
