Effects of Heat and Mass Transfer on MHD Peristaltic Flow of a Non-Newtonian Fluid through a Porous Medium between Two Coaxial Cylinders

We investigated the influence of heat and mass transfer on the peristaltic flow of magnetohydrodynamic Eyring-Powell fluid under low Reynolds number and long-wavelength approximation. The fluid flows between two infinite cylinders; the inner tube is uniform, rigid, and rest, while the outer flexible...
