Wavelet-Based Numerical Solution for MHD Boundary-Layer Flow Due to Stretching Sheet

Abstract In this paper, a two-dimensional steady flow of viscous fluid due to stretching sheet in the presence magnetic field is considered. We proposed two new numerical schemes based on Haar wavelet coupled with collocation approach and quasi-linearization process for solving Falkner-Skan equation representing governing problem. The important derived quantities velocity wall shear stress various values parameters M β are calculated. methods enable us obtain solutions even negative β, nonlinear parameter, smaller parameter ( < 1 ) which was missing earlier findings. Numerical graphical results obtained show an excellent agreement available findings demonstrate efficiency accuracy developed schemes. Another significant advantage present method that it does not depends small initial presumptions unlike traditional semi-analytical methods.
