Disposal of fly ash obtained from thermal power plants is a major environmental concern. Fly ash contains large proportions of silica and ferrites. Investigation of its prospects as an electronic material provides scope for enhanced fly ash utilization. This involves measurement of relative permittivity and loss tangent. Experiments are carried out at X band frequencies in TE10 mode using standard klystron waveguide setup. Shorted Waveguide Method is used to determine the complex permittivity. The complex transcendental equation obtained is solved using Genetic Algorithm. Experimental results are compared with theoretical estimates based on Landau Lifshitz Looyenga (LLL) equation.
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on societies all over the world, leading to significant shifts in individual behavior as well as societal norms. The goal of this study was to provide an in-depth look at the many different aspects of public behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: Demographic information, COVID-19 knowledge and awareness, prevention adherence, vaccination attitudes, and psychological well-being as a whole were all be gathered through the quantitative survey. The subjective meetings will give further bits of knowledge into the hidden inspirations, discernments, and difficulties faced by people in following general wellbeing rules.
Results: To find patterns and correlations among the various variables, statistical methods like regression analysis, factor analysis, and clustering algorithms were used in the data analysis. The subjective information was investigated specifically, separating key topics and accounts that shed light on the subtleties of the public’s way of behaving during the pandemic.
Conclusions: In the end, the goal of this multidimensional study was to help make decisions based on evidence and come up with plans to improve public health and lessen the impact of infectious disease outbreaks like COVID-19.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
