In this paper, two efficient and powerful explicit and minimal approaches based on the Hankel–
Padé method and Laplace Adomian decomposition method coupled with Padé approximation, respectively,
are discussed and employed to obtain approximate results of similarity solutions for the
magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) Falkner–Skan boundary layer flow over a permeable wall. The values
of skin friction coefficients of the problem are computed with high accuracy. The presented
results through tables and figures show the efficiency, reliability, and accuracy of the two presented
approaches. Finally, the effects of various model parameters on the boundary layer flow are investigated
graphically.
