TL;DR: In this paper, the momentum and heat transfer in a laminar liquid film on a horizontal stretching sheet is analyzed by the Homotopy analysis method (HAM), and analytic series solutions are given and compared with numerical results given by other authors.
Abstract: The momentum and heat transfer in a laminar liquid film on a horizontal stretching sheet is analyzed by the Homotopy analysis method (HAM). Analytic series solutions are given and compared with numerical results given by other authors. The good agreement between them shows the effectiveness of HAM to the problem of liquid film on an unsteady stretching surface.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the heat transfer in a liquid film driven by a horizontal sheet and showed that the stretching rate and temperature of the sheet vary with time, and that the variation in the sheet temperature with distance and with time has analogous effects both on the free surface temperature and the Nusselt number at the sheet.

TL;DR: In this article, the homotopy analysis method is used to find a family of travelling-wave solutions of the Kawahara equation, which is obtained as a series of exponentials, has a reasonable residual error.
Abstract: The homotopy analysis method (HAM) is used to find a family of travelling-wave solutions of the Kawahara equation. This approximate solution, which is obtained as a series of exponentials, has a reasonable residual error. The homotopy analysis method contains the auxiliary parameter ħ , which provides us with a simple way to adjust and control the convergence region of series solution. This method is reliable and manageable.

TL;DR: The effects of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on the flow and heat transfer in a laminar liquid film on a horizontal shrinking/stretching sheet are analyzed and the results are presented graphically to interpret various physical parameters appearing in the problem.
Abstract: The effects of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on the flow and heat transfer in a laminar liquid film on a horizontal shrinking/stretching sheet are analyzed. The similarity transformation reduces the time independent boundary layer equations for momentum and thermal energy into a set of coupled ordinary differential equations. The resulting five-parameter problem is solved by the homotopy perturbation method. The results are presented graphically to interpret various physical parameters appearing in the problem.
