Cancer remains one of the leading healthcare problems in the world, and efforts continue not only to discover new therapies but also to find better ways to deliver medicines. The need to transmit cytotoxic agents selectively to cancer cells, to improve safety and efficacy, has prompted the application of nanotechnology in medicine. The latest explorations have revealed that gold nanomaterials can rectify and defeat it since they have a large atomic quantity to generate heat and contribute to malignant tumor therapy. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the consequence of heat transport through micropolar blood flow which contains gold nanomaterials in a moving shrinking/stretching curved surface. The mathematical modeling of micropolar nanofluid containing gold blood nanomaterials (AuNPs) toward the curved shrinking/stretching surface is simplified by utilizing suitable transformation. Numerical dual solutions are regulated for the temperature distribution and velocity field by using the bvp4c technique in MATLAB. Impacts of pertinent constants on temperature distribution and velocity are examined. Consequently, findings indicate that gold nanomaterials are useful for drug movement and delivery mechanisms, as velocity boundary is controlled by suction and unsteady parameters. Gold nanomaterials also raise the temperature field, so that cancer cells can be destroyed.
