Non-aligned stagnation point flow of radiating Casson fluid over a stretching surface

This paper intends to inspect the combined influence of mixed convection and thermal radiation on non-aligned Casson fluid over a stretching surface. Using scaling transformations, the governing partial differential equations are converted into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations whic...
