Abstract

Two-dimensional steady flow of an incompressible homogenous couple stress fluid through a porous medium is considered. Exact solutions of the nonlinear equations of motion are derived, using canonical transformation and the generalized method of separation of variables. Expressions for the stream function and velocity components are derived in each case.
