Resumen en inglés An analysis is carried out to study the timedependent flow of an incompressible electrically conducting fourth-grade fluid over an infinite porous plate. The flow is caused by the motion of the porous plate in its own plane with an impulsive velocity V (t). The governing nonlinear problem is solved by invoking the Lie group theoretic approach and a numerical technique. Travelling wave solutions of the forward and backward type, together with a steady state solution, form the basis of our analytical analysis. Further, the closed-form solutions are also compared against numerical results. The essential features of the embedded parameters are described. In particular, the physical significance o
