Marangoni Driven Boundary Layer Flow of Carbon Nanotubes Toward a Riga Plate

The objective of this article is to explore radiative Marangoni boundary layer flow of carbon nanotubes along a surface that is an electromagnetic actuator, such as a Riga surface. A comparative study is conducted to investigate the behavior of Lorentz forces on the basis of nanoparticle temperature...
