Analysis has been performed in the presence of viscous dissipation and non-isothermal boundary conditions. The governing boundary layer equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations by an appropriate similarity transformation. The transformed coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations are then solved numerically by a shooting technique along with the Runge-Kutta method. Expressions for entropy generation (Ns) and Bejan number (Be) in the form of dimensionless variables are also obtained. Impact of various physical parameters on the quantities of interest is seen.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e19010010","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,12,28]],"date-time":"2016-12-28T11:22:14Z","timestamp":1482924134000},"page":"10","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":34,"title":["Entropy Generation in Magnetohydrodynamic Mixed Convection Flow over an Inclined Stretching Sheet"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Muhammad","family":"Afridi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Park Road, Chak Shahzad, Islamabad 44000, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6516-9809","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Muhammad","family":"Qasim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Park Road, Chak Shahzad, Islamabad 44000, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2056-9371","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ilyas","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Basic Engineering Sciences Department, College of Engineering, Majmaah University, Majmaah 11952, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sharidan","family":"Shafie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematical Sciences, Faculty of Science, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, 81310 UTM Johor Bahru, Johor 81310, Malaysia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ali","family":"Alshomrani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Science, King Abdul Aziz University, Jeddah 21589, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,12,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"26","DOI":"10.1002\/aic.690070108","article-title":"Boundary-layer behaviour on continuous solid surfaces: I.
