Unsteady mixed convection boundary layer flow from elliptic cylinder

The unsteady mixed convection boundary layer flow of a Newtonian fluid near the region of the stagnation point over an elliptic cross section of a cylinder in both horizontal (blunt elliptic cylinder) and vertical (slender elliptic cylinder) is considered in this project. The governing system of hig...
