The objective of this research endeavor is to examine the properties of stagnation point flow in the presence of absorption, viscous dissipation, and internal thermal generation with respect to a shrinking surface. The resulting system of differential equations is notoriously challenging to solve analytically. The equations controlling the boundary layer flow were solved using a finite difference method. The analysis includes the examination of important physical quantities through the presentation of plots and tabulated values. Our findings reveal a strong connection between the presence of solutions for high shrinking parameters and the magnetic field that was applied. Temperatures increase when there is an increase in both Ec and α at the same time. These results also suggest a shallowing of the thermal boundary layer. As a result of these findings, it appears that temperature and thermal boundary layer thickness are sensitive to changes in these factors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The municipal solid waste management is key for preserving the environment, protecting public health, and maintaining public cleanliness. Apart from these benefits, developing countries are more attracted to such systems as they offer an economical solution for waste management. This article intends to present a cost-effective and optimized waste management solution for Islamabad, Pakistan. The key steps of this research include; 1. acquisition of data; 2. transformation of data into coordinate form; 3. modeling of optimized waste collection routes and transportation; 4. modification of the capacitated vehicle routing algorithm to yield the optimized vehicle routes. The simulations are performed in MATLAB 2017B. Trial results show the efficacy of the recommended method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
