Transpiration effects on hybrid nanofluid flow and heat transfer over a stretching/shrinking sheet with uniform shear flow

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of transpiration on hybrid nanofluid flow and heat transfer over a stretching/shrinking sheet for uniform shear flow was considered, and the similarity equations were attained from the governing equations by using similarity transformation technique, and their solutions were obtained using the bvp4c solver in Matlab software.
