HAM is an analytic technique which provides us with a new way to obtain series solutions of such nonlinear problems. The approximate analytic solution for constant accelerated flow is obtained by using HAM. HAM contains the auxiliary parameter, which provides us with a straightforward way to obtain the convergence region of the series solution. Graphical results are plotted and the consequences discussed. The obtained solutions clearly satisfy the governing equations and all the imposed initial and boundary conditions. Many interesting results can be obtained as the special cases of the presented analysis. The influence of the material parameters of a third-grade fluid and rotation upon the velocity field is finally deliberated. © 2012 Zainal Abdul Aziz et al. date: 2012 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84872167444&doi=10.1155%2f2012%2f601917&partnerID=40&md5=c04c7890390c63e0d78dff40f0b40c8b id_number: 10.1155/2012/601917 full_text_status: none publication: Mathematical Problems in Engineering volume: 2012 refereed: TRUE issn: 1024123X citation: Abdul Aziz, Z. and Nazari, M. and Salah, F. and Ching, D.L.C.
