MHD flow of a Casson fluid over an exponentially shrinking sheet

Abstract The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow of a Casson fluid over an exponentially permeable shrinking sheet has been investigated. The analytical solution arising differential system has been computed by the Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM). Variations of interesting parameters on the velocity are observed by plotting graphs.
