β¦ Synopsis
The peristaltic transport of a third order fluid in a planar channel is considered. The fluid is electrically conducting by a transverse magnetic field. The perturbation solution is obtained using small Deborah number. Expressions of stream function, longitudinal velocity and pressure gradient valid for long wavelength are developed. Numerical integration is performed to analyze the effect of Hartman number on the pressure rise and frictional force. It is noted that both Hartman and Deborah numbers suppress the flow.

## Abstract The effect of variable viscosity on the peristaltic motion of MHD thirdβorder fluid in a channel is studied using slip condition. The series solution for stream function, longitudinal velocity and pressure gradient are first derived and then discussed in detail. The pressure rise and fr
## Abstract In this paper, we study the effect of the induced magnetic field on peristaltic transport of an incompressible conducting secondβorder fluid in a symmetric planar channel. The flow analysis has been developed without low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximations. The analysis c
The effect of a third-order fluid on the peristaltic transport in an asymmetric channel is studied. The wavelength of the peristaltic waves is assumed to be large compared to the varying channel width, whereas the wave amplitudes need not be small compared to the varying channel width. The channel a
This paper is devoted to the study of peristaltic flow of a fourth grade fluid in a channel under the considerations of long wavelength and low-Reynolds number. The flow is examined in a wave frame of reference moving with velocity of the wave. The analytic solution has been obtained in the form of
