We study the kinetics of domain growth in the Ising model with nonconserved dynamics under the action of a stochastic driving field that mimics the action of a shear flow. At late times, we found multistriped configurations with constant transversal size and linear growth in the direction of the flow. In cases with weak shear, a regime characterized by the decreasing of the transversal size is found that could correspond to previous theoretical investigations. This behavior is confirmed by the analysis of the structure factor patterns.
