The paper must have abstract. In this paper, we present an approximate analytical algorithm to solve non-linear quadratic Riccati differential equations of fractional order based on the optimal homotopy asymptotic method (OHAM). OHAM has the benefit of adjusting the convergence rate and the region of the solution series via several auxiliary parameters over the homotopy analysis method (HAM) th...

This paper studies the unsteady magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) thin film flow of an incompressible Oldroyd-B fluid over an oscillating inclined belt making a certain angle with the horizontal. The problem is modeled in terms of non-linear partial differential equations with some physical initial and boundary conditions. This problem is solved for the exact analytic solutions using two efficient tec...
