The effect of variable viscosity on the peristaltic motion of MHD third-order fluid in a channel is studied using slip condition. The series solution for stream function, longitudinal velocity and pressure gradient are first derived and then discussed in detail. The pressure rise and frictional forces are monitored through numerical integration. Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
