  • The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow of an incompressible upper-convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid over a porous stretching surface was investigated. Similarity transformations were used to reduce the governing partial differential equations into a nonlinear ordinary differential equation. The nonlinear problem was solved by employing successive Taylor series linearization method (STLM). Computations for velocity components were carried out for the emerging parameters. Numerical values of skin friction coefficient were presented and analyzed for various parameters of interest entering into the problem.
