Magnetohydrodynamic shear fluid flows with a rheological power law under conditions of transverse drift

S. I. Golaido - L. K. Martinson - K. B. Pavlov

Abstract
Magnetohydrodynamic shear flows of a Newtonian dilatant fluid with a transverse velocity component are considered. Exact analytic solutions and numerical solutions are used to investigate the combined effect of the magnetic field and transverse drift of the medium on the velocity of the leading edge of the shear wave.
