“…Recently some studies have presented a new method called Successive Linearization Method (SLM). This method has been applied successfully in many nonlinear problems in sciences and engineering, such as the MHD flows of non-Newtonian fluids and heat transfer over a stretching sheet (Shafiq et al, 2022), viscoelastic squeezing flow between two parallel plates, (Makukula et al, 2010a), two-dimensional laminar flow between two moving porous walls (Makukula et al, 2010b) and convective heat transfer for MHD boundary layer with pressure gradient (Ahmed et al, 2015), the thin-film flow of Eyring-Powell fluid on the vertically moving belt (Salah et al, 2019). Therefore, the effectiveness, validity, accuracy, and flexibility of the SLM are verified among all these successful applications.…”
