Effect of magnetic field on peristaltic flow of a fourth grade fluid in a tapered asymmetric channel

The problem of peristaltic transport of an incompressible non-Newtonian fluid in a tapered asymmetric channel is debated under long-wavelength and low-Reynolds number assumptions. The fluid is considered to be fourth order and electrically conducting by a transverse magnetic field. The tapered asymm...
