The aim of the study is to examine the stagnation point flow of a dusty Casson fluid over a stretching sheet with thermal radiation and buoyancy effects. The governing boundary layer equations are represented by a system of partial differential equation. After applying suitable similarity transformations, the resulting boundary layer equations are solved numerically using the Runge Kutta Fehlberg fourth-fifth order method (RKF-45 method). The behaviors of velocity, temperature and concentration profiles of fluid and dusty particles with respect to change in fluid particle interaction parameter, Casson paramter, Grashof number, radiation parameter, Prandtl number, number density, thermal equilibrium time, relaxation time, specific heat of fluid and dusty particles, ratio of diffusion coefficients, Schmidt number and Eckert number are analysed graphically and discussed. Our computed results interpret that velocity distribution decays for higher estimation of Casson parameter while temperature distribution shows increasing behavior for larger radiation parameter. 相似文献

Stretchable self‐healing urethane‐based biomaterials have always been crucial for biomedical applications; however, the strength is the main constraint of utilization of these healable materials. Here, a series of novel, healable, elastomeric, supramolecular polyester urethane nanocomposites of poly(1,8‐octanediol citrate) and hexamethylene diisocyanate reinforced with cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are introduced. Nanocomposites with various amounts of CNCs from 10 to 50 wt% are prepared using solvent casting technique followed by the evaluation of their microstructural features, mechanical properties, healability, and biocompatibility. The synthesized nanocomposites indicate significantly higher tensile modulus (approximately 36–500‐fold) in comparison to the supramolecular polymer alone. Upon exposure to heat, the materials can reheal, but nevertheless when the amount of CNC is greater than 10 wt%, the self‐healing ability of nanocomposites is deteriorated. These materials are capable of rebonding ruptured parts and fully restoring their mechanical properties. In vitro cytotoxicity test of the nanocomposites using human dermal fibroblasts confirms their good cytocompatibility. The optimized structure, self‐healing attributes, and noncytotoxicity make these nanocomposites highly promising for tissue engineering and other biomedical applications. 相似文献
We report systematic studies on the transport properties by varying the lithium oxide content of the garnet-based solid electrolyte
Li5+xBaLa2Ta2O11.5+0.5x (x=0, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2.00) for understanding the ionic conductivity dependence on the crystal lattice
parameter and carrier concentration. Powder X-ray diffraction data of Li5+xBaLa2Ta2O11.5+0.5x (x=0, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2.00) indicate the existence of the garnet-like structure for any of the compositions.
The cubic lattice parameter was found to increase with increasing x and reaches a maximum at x=1.00, then decreases slightly
with a further increase in x. Impedance measurements obtained at 50 °C indicate a maximum of the grain-boundary resistance
(Rgb) contribution to the total resistance (Rb+Rgb) at x=0.0 and a considerable decrease with increase in lithium concentration. The total (bulk + grain-boundary) and bulk
ionic conductivity increase with increasing lithium content and reach a maximum at x=1.00 and then decrease slightly with
further increase in x. Among the investigated compounds, Li6BaLa2Ta2O12 exhibits the highest total (bulk + grain-boundary) and bulk ionic conductivity of 1.5×10-4 and 1.8×10-4 S/cm at 50 °C, respectively. The results obtained in the present investigation of the Li5+xBaLa2Ta2O11.5+0.5x (x=0–2) series clearly revealed that the lithium content plays a major role in decreasing the grain boundary resistance contribution
to the total resistance and also in increasing the ionic conductivity of the garnet-like compound.

The object of this study is to analyze the impact of heterogeneous and homogeneous reactions on the flow, heat and mass transfer analysis of Maxwell nanofluid of Tiwari–Das kind over a stretched cylinder by considering convective boundary condition and velocity slip. Ethylene glycol (Eg) is used as base fluid; while gold (Au) and silver (Ag) are taken as nanoparticles. The governing equations represent nanofluid momentum, and energy and mass are reduced to system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by utilizing similarity transformation procedure and are numerically evaluated by using finite element method. The sway of several pertinent parameters on the sketches of velocity, temperature and concentration is plotted through graphs. In addition to that the values of rate of heat transfer and skin-friction coefficient are calculated and presented through tables. The values of skin-friction coefficient are intensified as the values of homogeneous–heterogeneous reaction parameters rises. The velocity and concentration scatterings are both declines as the strength of Maxwell parameter raises.
A molecularly defined NiII‐complex catalyzing the chemoselective acetalization of aldehydes with alcohols under neutral conditions is reported. The reaction is general, efficient and showed a wide substrate scope (including aliphatic aldehydes) as well as excellent functional group tolerance. Reusability of the present nickel catalyst is also demonstrated. 相似文献
Anopheles stephensi is a mosquito vector of malaria, which is still considered a relevant public health problem due to increasing outdoor transmission, growing resistance to insecticides used to target vectors, and antiplasmodial drugs as well. Thus, there is a vital need to explore novel sources of effective compounds. In this study, the hydrothermal method was used for the synthesis of bismuth oxyiodide (BiOI) nanoflakes. Furthermore, the toxicity of BiOI nanoflakes was evaluated for the first time on A. stephensi, as well as in vivo against the malaria parasite Plasmodium berghei. The synthesis of BiOI nanoflakes was confirmed by various characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). LC50 of BiOI nanoflakes on A. stephensi were 2.263 ppm (larva I), 3.414 ppm (II), 4.956 ppm (III), 6.983 ppm (IV) and 8.605 ppm (pupae). In vivo antiplasmodial experiments conducted on P. berghei infecting albino mice showed 27.2% of chemosuppression after 4 days of treatment with 300 mg/kg/day of BiOI, a lower performance if compared to chloroquine. Overall, our results suggested that hydrothermal synthesis of BiOI nanoflakes may be considered to develop newer and safer tools for malaria vector control. 相似文献
