Electro-osmotic flow of a third-grade fluid past a channel having stretching walls

The electro-osmotic flow of a third grade fluid past a channel having stretching walls has been studied in this paper. The channel height is taken much greater than the thickness of the electric double layer comprising of the Stern and diffuse layers. The equations governing the flow are obtained fr...
