On the problem of unsteady viscous MHD flow past an infinite porous flat plate with constant suction

Abstract

The problem of incompressible laminar viscous electrically conducting flow past an infinite porous flat plate moving parallel to itself with an arbitrary time-dependent velecity with uniform suction at the plate, when the pressure is uniform, is studied. The advantages of this note are that it generalizes several earlier works for conducting and as well as nonconducting flow, when the motion has started from rest with uniform pressure as a result of the movement of the plate in various particular ways.
