The present analysis represents the MHD flow of micropolar fluid past an oscillating infinite vertical plate embedded in porous media. At the plate, free convections are caused due to the differences in temperature and concentration. Therefore, the combined effect of radiative heat and mass transfer is taken into account. Partial differential equations are used in the mathematical formulation of a micropolar fluid. The system of dimensional governing equations is reduced to dimensionless form by means of dimensional analysis. The Laplace transform technique is applied to obtain the exact solutions for velocity, temperature, and concentration. In order to highlight the flow behavior, numerical computation and graphical illustration are carried out. Furthermore, the corresponding skin friction and wall couple stress are calculated.

An exact solution to the problem of flow past an exponentially accelerated infinite vertical plate with variable temperature is analyzed. The temperature of the plate is raised linearly with time t. The dimensionless governing equations are solved using Laplace-transform technique. The velocity and temperature profiles are studied for different physical parameters like thermal Grashof number Gr, time and an accelerating parameter a. It is observed that the velocity increases with increasing values of a or Gr.

The effects of thermal radiation on the MHD flow past an accelerated infinite vertical plate in a rotating fluid, taking Hall effect into account, has been investigated. The solutions are obtained by Laplace transformation technique. Velocity distribution (both axial and transverse) are shown graphically, whereas the numerical values of the axial and transverse components of skin-friction are listed in a table.

An analysis has been carried out to study the effect of heat source and chemical reaction on MHD flow past a vertical plate subject to a constant motion with variable temperature and concentration. The governing equations are solved by the Laplace transformation technique. The effects of various flow parameters on the flow dynamics are discussed. Findings of the present study reveal that the velocity of the fluid reduces due to the dominating effect of kinematic viscosity over molecular diffusivity in case of heavier species. Presence of heat source reduces the velocity of the flow. Presence of chemical reaction parameter decreases the concentration distribution.
