Convective boundary layer flow of Jeffrey fluid and Jeffrey nanofluid over various geometry

Non-Newtonian Jeffrey fluid model describes the viscoelastic property that elucidates the dual components of relaxation and retardation times. High shear viscosity, shear thinning and yield stress are the important features of this fluid model, which is profoundly relevant with the polymer industry....
