summary Non-Newtonian fluids have attracted significant interest due to growing applications in industrial, biotechnological, and mechanical engineering. Non-Newtonian fluids exhibit an astonishing range of rheological characteristics, including shear-thinning, shear-thickening, viscoplasticity, viscoelasticity, stress relaxation, and retardation times, among others. In modern nanofluid mechanics, non-Newtonian characteristics are an important consideration and more accurately simulate the behavior of these colloidal suspensions than conventional Newtonian fluids. Many researchers have developed various constitutive models to predict the rheological characteristics of non-Newtonian fluids. However, there is still a lack of studies that evaluate the characteristics of non-Newtonian fluids. The non-Newtonian fluids discussed in this study consist of Maxwell, tangent-hyperbolic, Williamson, second-grade, Oldroyd-B, and Casson fluids. The main objective of this thesis is to present the mathematical formulation of steady, two-dimensional, and incompressible flow of non-Newtonian fluids with Buongiorno’s nanoscale model, considering multiphysical rheological effects over a stretchable surface.
