MHD flow past an impulsively started vertical plate in a rotating fluid

In this research we study the heat and mass transfer for the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) free convection flow over an impulsively started infinite vertical flat plate in the presence of thermal radiation and thermal diffusion (Soret effect) in a rotating viscous fluid. The governing equations, which a...
