Abstract
In this work we present some analytic and semi-analytic traveling wave solutions of a generalized Burgers' equation for unidirectional flow of power-law non-Newtonian fluids. The solutions include the corresponding well-known traveling wave solution of the Burgers' equation for Newtonian flows. We also derive estimates of shock thickness for the power-law flows.
