ABSTRACT: The
group-theorytic approach is applied for solving the problem of the unsteady MHD
mixed convective flow past on a moving curved surface. The application of
two-parameter groups reduces the number of independent variables by two, and
consequently the system of governing partial differential equations with boundary
conditions reduces to a system of ordinary differential equations with
appropriate boundary conditions. The obtained ordinary differential equations
are solved numerically using the shooting method. The effects of varying
parameters governing the problem are studied. A comparison with previous work
is presented.
