In the present paper, we continue the study on generalized fuzzy soft topological spaces [3]. We define compactness in generalized fuzzy soft topological spaces, which is a generalization of compactness in fuzzy soft topological spaces. Also, we introduce a generalized fuzzy soft locally compact space, which is a generalization of locally compactness in fuzzy soft topological spaces. We provide interesting examples to show the obtained results.

In the present work, modified embedded atom potential and large-scale molecular dynamics’ simulations were used to explore the effect of grain boundary (GB) segregated foreign interstitials on the deformation behavior of nanocrystalline (nc) iron. As a case study, carbon and nitrogen (about 2.5 at.%) were added to (nc) iron. The tensile test results showed that, at the onset of plasticity, grain boundary sliding mediated was dominated, whereas both dislocations and twinning were prevailing deformation mechanisms at high strain. Adding C/N into GBs reduces the free excess volume and consequently increases resistance to GB sliding. In agreement with experiments, the flow stress increased due to the presence of carbon or nitrogen and carbon had the stronger impact. Additionally, the simulation results revealed that GB reduction and suppressing GBs’ dislocation were the primary cause for GB strengthening. Moreover, we also found that the stress required for both intragranular dislocation and twinning nucleation were strongly dependent on the solute type

rical simulations are carried out for a buoyancy-driven flow of hybrid nanofluids within an inclined two-sided wavy enclosure. The vertical wavy walls are mentioned to a relatively low temperature while two heated sections are placed in the top and bottom walls. An inclined electromagnetic force is considered together with impacts of the thermal radiation in the vertical direction. Method of the solution is consisting of two steps, namely, the first step is mapping the irregular domain to regular computational domain and the second step is discretization the resulting domain equations using the finite difference method. It is focused on influences of the radiation, magnetic field, undulation number, lengths and locations of the active sections. The main outcomes disclosed that an alteration in the radiation parameter enhances the rate of the heat transfer while various configurations of the hybrid nanofluid flow

The present article scrutinizes the impact of partial slip on mixed-radiative interaction convection flow of a non-Newtonian micropolar hybrid nanofluid with an inclined magnetic field in an odd-shaped porous cavity due to separated heating. Partial slip influence is assumed to be along an inclined walls af and ef. A source of constant heat flux on the walls bc and cd is implemented. Besides, the two walls ab and de are kept to be at low temperature . The other lid-driven porous cavity walls are selected to be adiabatic. The flow controlling equations are solved implementing the finite difference technique and the numerical computations are confirmed with earlier published papers successfully. Features of the temperature, streamlines and angular velocity as well Nusselt number are provided and argued for miscellaneous cases. The alteration of the vortex parameter enhances values of the angular velocity while the …

The spermicidal effects of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) hinder its application in the field of artificial insemination. In this study, silver-carbon NPs (Ag@C NPs) was synthesized and applied as an alternative antibiotic agent for bull semen extender. Ag@C NPs were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic absorption flame spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope (TEM), and high-resolution TEM (HR-TEM). Data analysis revealed the successful synthesis of Ag@C NPs with a particle size of 1-5 nm (average particle size of 2.5 nm) embedded into carbon. The antimicrobial activity of Ag@C NPs was tested against bacteriospermia of fresh semen collected from five fertile bulls (three ejaculates/bull). Escherichia coli (E. Coli), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) were isolated from fresh semen samples and identified by culture, staining, and conventional biochemical tests. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of Ag@C NPs against bacteriospermia was determined at 5 and 37 ºC. Ag@C NPs showed efficient antimicrobial activity (MIC: 3.125 - 12.5 μg/mL) against the tested strains and strong bactericidal effect on S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa (MBC: 3.125 μg/mL), with no detrimental effect (P ˃ 0.05) on the percentage of sperm motility (70.71±4.82; 74.65±4.46), plasma membrane integrity (68.39±4.31; 72.38±4.91), acrosome integrity (88.40±13.21; 86.77±14.23), and normal sperm morphology (86.85±7.43; 87.82±8.15) at concentrations of 15 and 30 μg/mL, respectively, after a cold storage of 48 h. However, Ag@C NPs showed a detrimental effect on sperm parameters in a dose dependent manner at concentrations ≥60 μg/mL. Ag@C NPs showed no adverse effect on the sperm´s ultrastructure with limited sperm internalization at MIC. In conclusion, Ag@C NPs could be used as an alternative antibiotic agent for bull semen extender without a significant cytotoxic effect on the sperm during cold storage. However, further investigations for their effects on embryo production and female genitalia are still required.
