Abstract:
      Most results on crossing numbers of graphs focus on some special graphs, such as the Cartesian products of small graphs with path, star and cycle. In this paper, we obtain the crossing number formula of Cartesian products of wheel $W_m$ with path $P_n$ for arbitrary $m\geq 3$ and $n\geq 1.$
