Abstrakt: Abstract.  The simultaneous effects of transpiration through and tangential movement of a semi-infinite flat plate on the self-similar boundary layer flow driven by uniform shear in the far field is considered. Difficulties with standard shooting techniques are overcome using Crocco variables which also serve to better elucidate the solution structure. The stabilities of dual, triple and even quadruple steady flow solutions encountered in different ranges of plate stretching and wall stress are determined using a linear temporal stability analysis for the self-similar flow.
