Abstract:
      The Falkner-Skan boundary layer equation is reduced to a nonlinear boundary value problem when Crocco variables transformation is introduced.The approximate analytical solutions are presented by using Adomian decomposition method.Furthermore,a numerical method is designed to give the numerical results to the equation and a comparison is made with Hartree's result.The reliability and efficiency of solution are verified by the numerical results in the literature in close agreement.
