Second derivative free sixth order continuation method for solving nonlinear equations with applications

In this paper, we deal with the study of convergence analysis of modified parameter based family of second derivative free continuation method for solving nonlinear equations. We obtain the order of convergence is at least five and especially, for parameter \(\alpha =2\) sixth order convergence. Some application such as Max Planck’s conservative law, multi-factor effect are discussed and demonstrate the efficiency and performance of the new method (for \(\alpha =2\)). We compare the absolutely value of function at each iteration \(|f(x_n)|\) and \(|x_n-\xi |\) with our method and Potra and Pták method [1], Kou et al. method [2]. We observed that our method is more efficient than existing methods. Also, the Dynamics of the method are studied for a special case of the parameter in convergence.     

Probing the Effects of Antimicrobial-Lysozyme Derivatization on Enzymatic Degradation of Poly(ε-caprolactone) Film and Fiber

Surface derivatization is essential for incorporating unique functionalities into biodegradable polymers. Nonetheless, its precise effects on enzymatic biodegradation still lack comprehensive understanding. In this study, a facile solution-based method is employed to surface derivatize poly(ε-caprolactone) films and electrospun fibers with lysozyme, aiming to impart antimicrobial properties and examine the impact on enzymatic degradation. The derivatized films and fibers have shown high antibacterial efficacy against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Through gravimetric analysis, it is observed that the degradation rate experiences a slight decrease upon lysozyme derivatization. However, this reduction is effectively countered by the inclusion of Tween-20, as affirmed by isothermal titration calorimetry. Comparing films and fibers, the latter undergoes degradation at a more accelerated pace, coupled with a rapid decline in molecular weight. This study provides valuable insights into the factors influencing the degradation of surface-derivatized biopolymers through electrospinning, offering a simple strategy to mitigate biomaterial-associated infections.
