Abstract In the study, we inspect the impact of cross diffusion and aligned magnetic field on Casson fluid flow along a stretched surface of variable thickness. The differential equations explaining the flow situation have been transitioned with the succor of suited transfigurations. The solution of the problem is achieved by using bvp5c Matlab package. From the solution, it is perceived that the flow, temperature and concentration fields are affected by the sundry physical quantities. Results explored for the flow over a uniform and a non-uniform thickness surfaces. The influence of emerging parameters on the flow, energy and mass transport are discussed with graphical and tabular results. Results show that the thermal, flow and species boundary layers are uneven for the flow over a uniform and non-uniform thickness stretched surfaces.

This article studies effect of thermal radiation, chemical reaction and parabolic motion on the unsteady MHD Casson fluid flow past an infinite vertical plate embedded with ramped wall temperature. The fluid is electrically conducting and passing through a porous medium. This phenomenon is modeled in the form of partial differential equations with initial and boundary conditions. Some suitable non-dimensional variables are introduced and corresponding dimensionless equations are solved using the Laplace transform technique. Analytical expressions for velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are obtained. The features of the velocity, temperature and concentration are analyzed by plotting graphs and the physical aspects are studied for different parameters like the magnetic field parameter M, thermal radiation parameter R, chemical reaction parameter〖 R〗^', thermal Grashof number Gr, mass Grashof number Gm, Schmidt number Sc, Prandtl number Pr and time variable t. It is seen that velocity profiles decrease with increase in thermal radiation R and chemical reaction parameter〖 R〗^'.
