| Abstract: | Summary This paper studies the flow of an incompressible, constant density micropolar fluid past a stretching sheet. The governing boundary layer equations of the flow are solved numerically using a globally convergent homotopy method in conjunction with a least change secant update quasi-Newton algorithm. The flow pattern depends on three non-dimensional parameters. Some interesting results are illustrated graphically and discussed.
Résumé Nous étudions l'écoulement d'un fluid micropolaire et incompressible, de densité constante, le long d'une surface qui l'étend. Les équations de la couche limite qui régissent l'écoulement sont résolues numériquement. On utilise un algorithme quasi-Newtonien de type  least change secant update avec une méthode homotopique /`a convergence globale. Certains résultats intéressants sont discutés et illustrés graphiquement.
