%X We study the boundary layer flows induced by the axisymmetric stretching of a sheets are studied using more suggestive schemes. The equation of motion of a axisymmetric flow over a stretching sheet and the sheet is stretched with a velocity is proportional to the distance from the vertical axis. The governing nonlinear differential equations are reduced to nonlinear linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by using similarity transformations. The resulting nonlinear ODEs are solved by using fast convergent Dirichlet series method and an approximate analytical method by Method of stretching of variables. These methods have advantages over pure numerical methods for obtaining the derived quantities accurately for various values of the parameters involved at a stretch and these are valid in much larger domain as compared with the classical numerical schemes.
