EXPERIMENT 10: Write a Program for Blasius solution for laminar boundary layer over
a flat plate.
% This script animates the solution to the Balsius' model for a boundary
% layer flow over a flat plate. This model assumes steady flow, constant
% density and viscosity. First one must solve the Blasius differential
% equation f'''+0.5*f*f''= 0 with f(0)=0, f'(0)=0 AND f'(infinity)=0 where
% the prime denotes differentiation wuth respect to eta=y*(U*rho/mu)^.5.
