The behaviour of laminar boundary layer flow field over a solid surface moving with constant speed plays a significant role in several applications of science and technology. This paper examines the steady, laminar incompressible boundary-layer flow of a viscous electrically conducting fluid past a moving wedge with suction (injection) in the presence of an applied magnetic field. The set of pa...

An important feature of continents and oceans is that they are underlain by chemically distinct mantle, made intrinsically buoyant and highly viscous by melt depletion and accompanying dehydration, respectively. Of interest here are the influences of these preexisting chemical boundary layers on small-scale convective processes (as opposed to large-scale processes, which govern the drift of con...

Linear stability analyses are performed to study the dynamics of linear convective instability mechanisms in a laminar shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction at Mach 1.7. In order account for all two-dimensional gradients elliptically, we introduce perturbations into an initial-value problem that found as solutions eigenvalue formulated moving frame reference. We demonstrate this methodology pro...
