The Tiwari-Das model is used to investigate magnetohydrodynamic stagnation point flow and heat transfer past a nonlinear stretching or shrinking cylinder in nanofluid with viscous dissipation and heat generation using. The partial differential equations, also known as governing equations, were reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation. MATLAB with the bvp4c solver is used for numerical computing. The controlling parameter, such as nanoparticle volume fraction, magnetic, curvature, nonlinear, radiation, and heat generation parameters, as well as Eckert and Grashof numbers, influence the skin friction coefficient, heat transfer rate, velocity, and temperature profiles. The results are presented as graphs to show the influence of the variables studied. In some circumstances of stretching and shrinking cases, dual solutions can be obtained.
