This article suggests a fourth-order numerical approach for solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) that are both linear and nonlinear. The suggested scheme is an explicit predictor-corrector scheme. For linear ODE, the proposed numerical scheme's stability area is discovered. The proposed strategy yields the same stability region as the traditional fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. In addition, partial differential equations (PDEs) are used to develop the mathematical model for the flow of non-Newtonian micro-polar fluid over the sheet and heat and mass transit using electric field effects. These PDEs are further transformed into dimensionless boundary value problems. Boundary value problems are resolved using the proposed shooting-based scheme. The findings show that increasing values of ion kinetic work and Joule heating parameters cause the temperature profile to climb. The results produced by the suggested strategy are compared to those discovered through earlier studies. The results of this study could serve as a starting point for future fluid-flow investigations in a secure industrial environment.
