Abstract

The flow of a third-grade fluid occupying the space over a wall is studied. At the surface of the wall suction or blowing velocity is applied. By introducing a velocity field, the governing equations are reduced to a non-linear partial differential equation. The resulting equation is analysed analytically using Lie group methods.
