Fig. 5

Non-dimensional displacement structures obtained for various n ranging from 0.1 to 1.0 using (a) the infinite plate model and (b) the semi-infinite plate model. c The non-dimensional flow rate profiles of Ishak and Bachok (2009) for the infinite model. At approximately n = 0.6, the geometrical change of the non-dimensional flow rate structure graph is in agreement with the reduction in n. The graph is shifted down and right as n decreases in the n > 0.6 domain, whereas it is shifted up and left as n decreases in the n < 0.6 domain
