Abstract Analytical solutions for the peristaltic flow of magneto hydrodynamic (MHD) Sisko fluid in a channel, under the effects of strong and weak magnetic fields, are presented. The governing non linear problem, for the strong magnetic field, is solved using the matched asymptotic expansion. The solution for the weak magnetic field is obtained using regular perturbation method. The main observation is the existence of Hartman boundary layer for the strong magnetic field at the location of the two plates of the channel. The thickness of the Hartmann boundary layer is determined analytically. The effects of strong magnetic field and the shear thinning parameter of the Sisko fluid on the velocity profile are presented graphically.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
