In this article, we have examined the steady 2D magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stagnation point flow of an incompressible viscous nanofluid over a curved surface based on mass suction. Alumina ( A l 2 O 3 ) is taken to be a nanoparticle while ethylene glycol is considered a base fluid. The developed flow and heat equations are changed into coupled ordinary differential equations through dimensionless variables, which are resolved numerically via the bvp4c scheme in MATLAB. The graphical results for temperature, velocity, Nusselt number and skin friction have been obtained under the effect of various parameters, such as suction parameter S , Hartmann number M , curvature parameter K and nanoparticle volume fraction φ . From these results, it is noticed that S , M and φ act directly on the skin friction and heat transfer rate, although the reverse effect has been shown by K . Furthermore, increasing K leads to lower fluid velocity and higher temperature field.

In the present work we consider a numerical solution for laminar, incompressible, and steady oblique stagnation point flow of Cu − water nanofluid over a stretching/shrinking sheet with mass suction S . We make use of the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model to develop the equation of energy and investigate the qualities of surface heat transfer. The governing flow and energy equations are modified into the ordinary differential equations by similarity method for reasonable change. The subsequent ordinary differential equations are illuminated numerically through the function bvp4c in MATLAB. The impact of different flow parameters for example thermal relaxation parameter, suction parameter, stretching/shrinking parameter, free stream parameter, and nanoparticles volume fraction on the skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number, and streamlines are contemplated and exposed through graphs. It turns out that the lower branch solution for the skin friction coefficient becomes singular in shrinking area, although the upper branch solution is smooth in both stretching and shrinking domain. For oblique stagnation-point flow the streamlines pattern are not symmetric, and reversed phenomenon are detected close to the shrinking surface. Also, we observed that the free stream parameter changes the direction of the oncoming flow and controls the obliqueness of the flow. The existing work mostly includes heat and mass transfer as a mechanism for improving the heat transfer rate, which is the main objective of the authors.

An unsteady magnetohydrodynamic oblique stagnation point flow of an incompressible nanofluid towards a stretching/shrinking surface with the effect of mass suction on the oscillatory surface is analyzed. Water is considered as a base fluid while single wall carbon nanotubes are assumed as nanoparticles. The governing flow equations are transformed into a system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations via suitable transformation. Dual solutions of these nonlinear coupled equations are obtained by utilizing the bvp4c package in MATLAB. It is also found that these solutions survive in a certain domain of controlling parameters. The physical influence of several controlling parameters like nanoparticle volume fraction parameter, Hartmann number, stretching/shrinking parameter and suction parameter on heat transfer characteristics and flow field are discussed in detail and are demonstrated through graphs. We find that dual solutions exist in both the stretching case and the shrinking case. Also, the lower solution branch shows singular behavior for the skin friction coefficient in the shrinking domain whereas the upper solution branch has smooth behavior in both the stretching and shrinking domains.

The nanofluid flow under the consequences of Brownian motion, thermophoresis, and nonlinear radiation has been numerically studied over a heated rotating disc. Arrhenius activation energy is used to describe the various aspects of heat and mass transition. The problem has been modeled in the form of a system of PDEs consist of the Maxwell and Navier Stokes equations. The system of modeled equations has been reduced to the ordinary system of dimensionless differential equations using a similarity framework. For the problem's quantitative approximation, the results have been obtained through numerical technique boundary value solver (bvp4c). The physical quantities that derive from the modeled equations are displayed and addressed. It has been perceived that the Prandtl number and radiation effect improves the heat transmission rate while improving the magnetic parameter reduces the velocity field. Furthermore, the entropy rate and Bejan number increases with the rising effect of chemical reaction, temperature differential variable, concentration ratio variable and Schmidt number.

The current study investigates the association of board characteristics with firms’ environmental performance to provide further research and policy implications by carrying out systematic bibliometric analysis. The most potent contribution of the current study was to evaluate the performance of authors, geographical regions, journals and academic institutions to document their impact on the development of current literature. Moreover, the current study has used analytical statistics to examine how current research themes have evolved, and how impediments in existing literature can be overcome. Our analysis allows us to conclude that there is a lack of research collaboration between researchers and institutions in developing and developed countries. Finally, we summarize that the economic literature focuses more on BOD diversity, and there is less focus on theoretical development; non-listed firms, geographical proximity and mediating variables are research areas that need further academic attention. We conclude the current research investigation by identifying new research avenues.
