Energy consumption, financial development, CO2 emissions, and economic growth in 23 developing economies
Authors: Tinoco-Zermeño Miguel Á.
Published: October 2022

This study examines the nexus among energy consumption, CO2 emissions, financial development, and economic growth in 23 developing countries. The econometric approach is based on panel pairwise Granger causality and GMM estimations of panel VAR-Granger causality with fixed effects. Our study is probably one of the first to estimate joint relationships between financial (bank credit to private sector and liquid liabilities), energy (primary energy consumption and electricity generation), environmental (CO2 emissions), and economic variables (GDP and inflation rates) in less developed economies over the 2001-2019 period. The results confirm bidirectional causality between financial development and CO2, financial development and GDP, and primary energy consumption and CO2; and unidirectional from financial development to energy consumption and from electricity generation to CO2. We did not find evidence of a relationship between GDP and energy or CO2 emissions. Due to data availability, we could not complement our analysis with further testing, which would enrich the results. The research may guide policymakers in designing policies to reduce contamination, improve energy use, and promote financial development.
Population Health Metrics During the Early Stages of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Correlative Pilot Study
Authors: Severson Marie A , Cassada David A , Huber Victor C , Snow Daniel D , McFadden Lisa M
Published: October 2022

Background

COVID-19 has caused nearly 1 million deaths in the United States, not to mention job losses, business and school closures, stay-at-home orders, and mask mandates. Many people have suffered increased anxiety and depression since the pandemic began. Not only have mental health symptoms become more prevalent, but alcohol consumption has also increased during this time. Helplines offer important insight into both physical and mental wellness of a population by offering immediate, anonymous, cheap, and accessible resources for health and substance use disorders (SUD) that was unobstructed by many of the mandates of the pandemic. Further, the pandemic also launched the use of wastewater surveillance, which has the potential for tracking not only population infections but also consumption of substances such as alcohol.

Objective

This study assessed the feasibility of using multiple public surveillance metrics, such as helpline calls, COVID-19 cases, and alcohol metabolites in wastewater, to better understand the need for interventions or public health programs in the time of a public health emergency.

Methods

Ethanol metabolites were analyzed from wastewater collected twice weekly from September 29 to December 4, 2020, in a Midwestern state. Calls made to the helpline regarding housing, health care, and mental health/SUD were correlated with ethanol metabolites analyzed from wastewater samples, as well as the number of COVID-19 cases during the sampling period.

Results

Correlations were observed between COVID-19 cases and helpline calls regarding housing and health care needs. No correlation was observed between the number of COVID-19 cases and mental health/SUD calls. COVID-19 cases on Tuesdays were correlated with the alcohol metabolite ethyl glucuronide (EtG). Finally, EtG levels were negatively associated with mental health/SUD helpline calls.

Conclusions

Although helpline calls provided critical services for health care and housing-related concerns early in the pandemic, evidence suggests helpline calls for mental health/SUD-related concerns were unrelated to COVID-19 metrics. Instead, COVID metrics were associated with alcohol metabolites in wastewater. Although this research was formative, with continued and expanded monitoring of population metrics, such as helpline usage, COVID-19 metrics, and wastewater, strategies can be implemented to create precision programs to address the needs of the population.
The effectivity of thidiazuron and 1‐naphthaleneacetic acid on somatic embryo induction in transgenic Dendrobium phalaenopsis Fitzg. carrying 35S::GR::AtRKD4

Published: October 2022

Dendrobium phalaenopsis Fitzg. (also known as the Larat orchid) is an endemic orchid from Larat Island, Eastern Indonesia. Its beautiful flowers mean that many plants are taken for commercial purposes, leading to the rapid decline of populations in their natural habitats. The objectives of this study were to determine which organs of the transgenic Larat orchid carrying the 35S::GR::AtRKD4 construct, together with which concentrations of the plant growth regulators (PGRs) auxin and cytokinin, are suitable for the induction of somatic embryos (SEs). In this study, the AtRKD4 gene in Larat orchids was confirmed using PCR with specific primers for the AtRKD4 and HPT genes. Thidiazuron (TDZ) (1, 3 and 5 mg/L) in combination with 1‐naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) (0.5 and 1 mg/L) were used on new phalaenopsis (NP) medium to induce SEs from leaves, pseudobulbs and roots. The AtRKD4 transgenes were detected as being stably integrated into the DNA genome of transformant plants using specific primers for AtRKD4 and HPT genes, and positive results were obtained using actin gene primers as internal controls for PCR. Pseudobulbs produced 19 to 20 SEs from 108 pseudobulb explants (89–100%), a higher number than produced in explants of the other organs studied. Among the PGR treatments, the best results were obtained in NP medium supplemented with a combination of 1 mg/L TDZ and 1 mg/L NAA, 100% of the explants of which produced SEs (2.11 ± 1.36). No significant difference was found between the morphology of the SEs produced from the non‐transformant Larat orchid pseudobulb explants and the 35S::AtRKD4 carrier transformant.

More than 6,000,000 people have died due to the coronavirus (COVID‐19) pandemic. This disease spread quickly due to its highly contagious nature. The SARS‐CoV‐2 virus that causes the disease can be transmitted through saliva droplets secreted by infected people at a distance of less than 1 m. As a result, saliva has been accepted as an alternative specimen for COVID‐19 detection by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Furthermore, WHO recommended the use of rapid antigen tests based on lateral flow immunoassay when reverse transcription‐polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR) is not available. We developed a saliva‐based rapid antigen test by optimizing the antibody concentration and optimum pH for the conjugation of antibody and gold nanoparticles. We found that the best running buffer formulation consisted of 75 mM sodium phosphate buffer, 1% NaCl, 1% Triton X‐100, 0.5% N‐acetyl‐L‐cysteine, and 0.02% sodium azide. The addition of a mucolytic agent in the buffer can reduce the viscosity of saliva, thus improving sensitivity. The rapid test developed detected the lowest concentration of nucleocapsid protein at 0.1 μg/mL. Our study revealed 100% specificity against negative COVID‐19 saliva and no cross‐reaction with avian influenza virus hemagglutinin.
MOLECULAR DOCKING STUDIES OF MONOMERIC WILDTYPE AND MUTANT (H81A, H49R) SOD1 WITH EDARAVONE AND RILUZOLE
Authors: NAGRE RADHIKA , BUWA VAEESHNAVI
Published: October 2022

Objective: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal motor neuron disorder that causes progressive loss of the upper and lower motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. SOD1 was the first gene linked to ALS, in which more than 150 mutations throughout the sequence of the protein have been found to be associated with ALS.
Methods: The drugs that can interact and inhibit the misfolding or revert the misconformation of the protein can be useful in the treatment of ALS. Monomer apo SOD1-WT and MBR SOD1 mutants (H81A, H49R) were docked with the only two FDA-approved drugs for ALS that are edaravone and riluzole to assess if the ALS patients carrying these particular protein aggregates will derive any therapeutic efficacy.
Results: The drugs were found to interact with both wild-type and mutant SOD1 at different positions and the type of interaction, degree of interaction and their binding energies were determined. SOD1-WT has hydrophobic interactions at V103, H110, and R115 and hydrogen bond at H110 with edaravone. SOD1-WT has hydrophobic interactions at T54, F64 and hydrogen bond at D52, T58 with riluzole. Both SOD1 mutants has a hydrogen bond at its H46 residue for both drugs. SOD1-H49R mutant has hydrophobic interactions at F45 with riluzole. SOD1-H81A mutant has hydrophobic interactions at F45 with edaravone.
Conclusion: Both the mutants L42A residue has a hydrophobic interaction with edaravone. Interaction of drugs with protein and its mutants may make it possible to restore the stability of SOD1 structure and attenuate disease progression in ALS patients carrying these mutations.

Authors: RAYTTHATHA NENSI , VYAS JIGAR
Published: October 2022

Objective: Bigels are unique semi-solid preparations that have piqued the focus of numerous scientists owing to their significant advantages over ordinary gels. The purpose of this study was to develop and characterize innovative Bigels for applications in drug delivery by combining Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose hydrogel and sorbitan monostearate, oils like coconut and olive-based organogel. The existence of both aqueous and oil phases as bigel was revealed by microscopy.
Methods: Hydrogels and organogels were prepared separately, and bigels were formed by combining hydrogel and organogel in a predetermined ratio. They were then analyzed employing various physicochemical tests i. e in vitro drug release, microscopy, and other techniques. Microscopy, viscosity measurement, mechanical analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry were used to examine the bigel's microstructures and physicochemical properties.
Results: Tube inversion tests reveal that the bigel doesn’t flow under its own weight till 167 min. The microscopy suggested that the gels exhibited fiber-like structures due to the trapping of the organogel inside hydrogel molecules; this entrapment was demonstrated to be uniformly accomplished, resulting in formulation stability, and the DSC study reveals that the terbinafine is not decomposed also after formulating in bigel, and the terbinafine bigel was also found to be stable. The drug-loaded gels demonstrated effective antibacterial activity against Candida species. The formulated bigel shows initial release in 2 h and slowly release later in 4 h. The formed bigel is found to be stable after 3 mo with a pH range of 7.07±0.04, showing good spreadability and drug content was 99.99±0.75.
Conclusion: Terbinafine, the drug of preference for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis, demonstrated diffusion-mediated drug release when placed into bigels. In general, the produced bigels might be employed as delivery vehicles for drugs delivered vaginally.

Objective: Coronavirus is a single-stranded, enveloped, positive-sense RNA virus. It is responsible for the acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and the disease is named COVID-19 by WHO. It is also called SARS-CoV-2. Pneumonia is one of the complications of COVID-19 disease. Patients with pneumonia admitted to General Hospital were treated with Augmentin. Augmentin is a broad-spectrum antibacterial that has been available for clinical use in a wide range of indications for over 20 y and is now used primarily in the treatment of respiratory tract infections. The main objective of our study is to evaluate the efficacy of Augmentin in COVID-19 patients with pneumonia in terms of beneficial effects after treatment.
Methods: The present study was a retrospective, observational, record-based study of the case sheets of COVID-19 patients with pneumonia. The statistical analysis was done using paired t-test.
Results: In our institution COVID-19 patients with pneumonia were treated with Tablet FAVIRAPIR and Injection AUGMENTIN. The results were calculated using paired t-test and the P-value was<0.0001, which is significant as it is less than 0.05. Therefore, the post-treatment outcome results showed a significant improvement in disease reduction.
Conclusion: The study concludes that the empirical treatment of COVID-19 patients with pneumonia using an appropriate antibiotic reduces further deterioration of patients with pneumonia due to complications and also protects the patients from acquired infections during the hospital stay.

Published: October 2022

Objective: To find the correlation of serum magnesium levels in diabetic patients with and without retinopathy.
Methods: Hospital Based Cross-Sectional study was conducted on diabetic patients who attend the ophthalmology outpatient department in a medical college and hospital, Puducherry. Patients were divided into two groups with and without diabetic retinopathy. After obtaining institutional ethical committee approval and consent from the patient, anthropometry measurements were taken, followed by the comparison of serum magnesium level estimation in both groups. All parameters are presented as mean±standard deviation (mean±SD). The data was entered and analysed by using Epi info (version 6.04d) software package.
Results: The mean (SD) value of serum magnesium was 1.14 (0.17) and 1.42 (0.15), in cases and controls, respectively. Our results showed that the serum magnesium levels were significantly decreased (p<0.05) among patients with diabetic retinopathy as compared to patients without diabetic retinopathy.
Conclusion: The strong association between serum magnesium levels and severity of type II Diabetes mellitus indicates a role for early prediction and appropriate therapeutic modifications to avoid end-stage disease complications.

Applications from IoT technologies - The Internet of Things has been used in the market of Brazilian startups that work in the field of health. Such technologies need to offer an efficient and intuitive interface so that the user can make decisions while performing tasks in the digital environment. Based on this assumption, the study aimed to identify the principles of interaction design in the elaboration of interface design for applications that use IoT technologies. To do so, it was sought in the literature review to conceptualize the terms Wearable, IoT, and the theoretical bases of usability criteria, interaction design, and interface design. With an exploratory and descriptive approach, the research presented a documentary survey of the situation of Brazilian healthtechs and how these companies apply IoT technologies in their products and services. To elucidate the theory, the procedure of analysis of the interaction design was used in an application for the treatment of epilepsy by the healthtech Epistemic. As a result, it was found the existence of a group of Brazilian healthtechs that invested in IoT technologies to promote health, well-being, and the fight against COVID-19 through their digital devices. By selecting Epistemic's IoT technology, it was possible to present how the interaction design appropriates the usability criteria to favor the communication process between the system and the user while evaluating the user's experience with the interface from the degree of satisfaction and efficiency in performing tasks.

Authors: Marques Samuel Carvalho de Azevedo , Saba Hugo , Winkler Ingrid , Filho Aloisio Santos Nascimento
Published: October 2022

Incubators are models to support entrepreneurship, being central to economic growth and as catalysts for the formation of new business. Incubators have a practical relevance as an effective mechanism to support small business development. In relation to the sustainability, however, few authors have explored the notion of incubation for sustainability to meet global development agendas. The incubator-sustainability relationship in practice can support sustainable development through new companies and incubators profiled on sustainable. Few attentions have been given to the engagement of incubators in activities aimed at sustainable development. In this sense, the present study aims to investigate the application of the term sustainability in studies on business incubators. For this a literature review study was conducted, based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and bibliometric techniques. This review identifies links between incubators and sustainability and observes differences in the application of the notion of sustainability. From the analysis updated terms emerges related to sustainability may represent trends and new areas of interest. The findings of the review highlight that knowledge is expanding and still need to be deepened for strengthen the role of incubators in sustainable development. As limitations, we can highlight the lack of clear definition of concepts and a research agenda on the topic. At the end, it is suggested that future work may expand the research on incubators and sustainability.

The present study aimed to evaluate the seroprevalence of anti - Brucella abortus antibodies in Veterinary Medicine students at the Federal University of Mato Grosso (UFMT) - Sinop campus and Veterinary Physicians in the mid-north region of Mato Grosso, as well as the risk factors associated with its transmission. Blood samples were collected from the participants to assess the frequency of anti-Brucella abortus antibodies and sent to the Infectious Diseases Laboratory at UFMT Campus Sinop, where the samples were processed. The blood samples collected from indirect diagnostic methods, based on the detection of antibodies. This is an observational, cross-sectional, retrospective study, in which the results were evaluated through the analysis of the chi-square association by Fisher's exact test and for the identification of factors associated with the reagents for anti-Brucella abortus, it was carried out crude analysis using Poisson regression. Of the 213 volunteers, seven were tested for the Buffered Acidified Antigen (42.9%) and with a predominant range of age from 18 to 25 years (42.9%) %). The variable “Frequent Laboratory that diagnoses Brucellosis” (p = 0.028) was the only variable that remained significant after regression. It was concluded the lack of preparation and responsibility of some professionals when exercising the profession, not fulfilling the basics: protecting themselves and helping others to do the same, putting their health at risk and that of the population in general.

Este volumen ofrece la edición crítica de 29 pliegos de villancicos que se cantaron en la Catedral de México durante el magisterio de capilla de Antonio de Salazar (1688-1715), sin dejar de referir aquellos textos que se conservan también en manuscritos musicales. Abarcan una temporalidad que va de 1688 a 1714 e incluyen las siguientes festividades: San Pedro (1689, 1693, 1695, 1696, 1699 y 1714), Asunción (1689, 1691, 1693, 1695, 1696 y 1699), Natividad de Nuestra Señora (1688, 1689, 1691, 1696, 1697, 1698, 1699, 1700, 1701, 1702, 1703, 1704 y uno sin fecha, de Lorenzo Antonio González de la Sancha), Concepción (1695) y Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe (1690, 1695 y 1696). Los 251 villancicos aquí reunidos representan el esplendor y el inicio del ocaso de este género poético-musical en la Nueva España. Fueron escritos por los mejores (aunque algunos no tanto) poetas de la Ciudad de México –Gabriel de Santillana, Francisco de Azevedo, Alonso Ramírez de Vargas, Felipe de Santoyo, Diego de Sevilla y Espinosa, Andrés de los Reyes Villaverde, Andrés de Zepeda Carvajal, Lorenzo Antonio González de la Sancha, Pedro Muñoz de Castro, José Luis de Velazco y Arellano, y Luis de la Peña–, lo que permite también reflexionar sobre ellos y sobre su quehacer en el escenario catedralicio. Esta edición rescata pliegos de villancicos conservados en la Biblioteca Nacional de Antropología e Historia, Biblioteca Palafoxiana, una biblioteca privada de Puebla, Biblioteca Cervantina y la John Carter Brown Library. Los textos fueron regularizados: se modernizaron la acentuación, la puntuación y el uso de mayúsculas; se desarrollaron las abreviaturas; se modernizaron las grafías sin valor fónico, pero se conservaron las contracciones de la preposición de y las cursivas de palabras significativas de los originales. Se ha realizado también una detallada anotación filológica. Los pliegos están organizados cronológicamente, tomando en cuenta el orden de las fiestas durante el año litúrgico, con la excepción del último pliego que no está fechado, aunque podría datarse entre 1693 y 1695. Al final de la edición se podrán encontrar las notas complementarias que contienen información de diversa índole: la transcripción de las portadas, ubicación de ejemplares en las bibliotecas y su descripción, menciones comentadas en los repertorios bibliográficos y en antologías y estudios, así como aclaraciones adicionales a las notas filológicas. En aquellos casos cuando se conserva también la música de los textos poéticos de esta edición, se anotan las variantes observadas.

IMPACTO DE CORTO Y LARGO PLAZO DE LAS REMESAS EN MODELOS KEYNESIANOS
Authors: Sovilla Bruno
Published: October 2022

RESUMEN
En este artículo sostenemos que las remesas pueden contraer la demanda agregada de las economías receptoras. En la primera parte de este trabajo estimamos un modelo estático para comprobar de manera analítica y gráfica el impacto de corto plazo de las remesas. Luego construimos un modelo dinámico mediante una simulación con desfases temporales que considera las variaciones de algunos parámetros de las funciones utilizadas. En la segunda parte, con base en el modelo de Kaldor, analizamos el impacto de las remesas en el proceso de acumulación y la distribución del ingreso en el largo plazo a través de las propensiones al consumo diferenciadas entre trabajadores y capitalistas y de una función inversión.
 
SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM IMPACT OF REMITTANCES IN KEYNESIAN MODELS
ABSTRACT
Remittances can have negative consequences on recipient economies, causing a contraction in aggregate demand. In the first part of this paper, we point out the short-run impact of remittances using a simplified static model that can be solved analytically and presented graphically. Subsequently, we carry out a simulation, introducing time lags that allow us to build a dynamic model and to consider the variations of some parameters of the functions used. In the second part we move on to a long-run analysis, using a model proposed by Kaldor, with consumption propensities differentiated between workers and capitalists and an investment function, which allow us to analyze the impact of remittances on the accumulation process and on income distribution.
Modelling of Residual Gravity Data due to a Near Surface Dyke Structure Using Damped SVD and Marquardt Inverse Methods
Authors: Eshaghzadeh Ata , Hajian Alireza
Published: October 2022

En este artículo, se describen dos métodos de modelado inverso basados en la descomposición de valor singular amortiguado (DSVD) como inversor lineal y el algoritmo de optimización de Marquardt como inversor no lineal. El SVD amortiguado resuelve los problemas mal planteados y especifica directamente la contribución de la densidad de la superficie inferior. La inversión de Marquardt estima los parámetros del modelo. La eficiencia de ambos métodos se investiga utilizando los datos de gravedad sintéticos, con y sin ruido aleatorio, según se obtengan los resultados aceptables. Los enfoques introducidos se emplean para la interpretación de un conjunto de datos de gravedad real de Irán. La masa causante de la gravedad en el área de estudio son casi el depósito magmático con un alto porcentaje de dióxido de manganeso donde han penetrado dentro de las fracturas y aproximadamente se han formado las estructuras tabulares. Las estructuras invertidas de ambos métodosson casi correspondientes. El ancho, la extensión y la profundidad evaluados hasta la parte superior e inferior de la estructura enterrada mediante la técnica SVD amortiguada son 15m, 22m, 7.5m y 25m, respectivamente, y según el algoritmo de Marquardt son 15.8m, 20.3m, 9.4m y 21.9m, respectivamente. La fuente simulada tiene una tendencia NW-SE con una caída de 38,04 grados.

Este artículo tiene como objetivo proponer un modelo para el flujo de información científica en las áreas de información en Brasil (Archivología, Biblioteconomía, Ciencias de la Información y Museología). Se concibió a partir de datos cuantitativos extraídos de una muestra aleatoria de 266 proyectos de investigación en la base de datos de la Plataforma Lattes, que fueron desarrollados entre 2005 y 2019 por investigadores doctores que actúan en las áreas de información. Esta investigación consideró 1 298 publicaciones entre trabajos de resúmenes, artículos de conferencias, artículos de revistas, capítulos de libros, libros, disertaciones y tesis doctorales relacionadas con los proyectos de investigación de la muestra. Una investigación cualitativa complementaria entrevistó a 59 investigadores sobre sus preferencias al elegir un documento para publicar. El resultado es un modelo capaz de representar: el uso de canales informales y formales, con porcentajes de publicación para cada tipo de documento estudiado, una línea de tiempo con indicación de cuándo se publican típicamente estos documentos y las razones para publicarlo en cada vehículo considerado. Un modelo gráfico resume toda esta información. También se evalúa la importancia de los programas de estudios de posgrado en las áreas de información en la investigación brasileña.
Automatic Solar Panel Positioning and Maintenance System

Published: October 2022

Abstract: Renewable energy is a type of energy that is derived from ongoing natural processes and energy of natural processes converted into available forms. Solar energy is any type of energy that is generated by the sun. To make use of this energy and convert it into electricity we use solar panels. A solar panel has maximum productivity when the sun rays are incident at right angle to it. Usual home use solar panels are fixed in a stationary position hence there will be only a certain time in the day that the sun-rays are incident at right angle on the panel. A solar tracking system is a single-axis rotating system which aims for solar panels to operate by tracking the sun's movement throughout the day which makes it possible for the rays to arrive perpendicular to the panels. This maximises the productivity of the panel. Solar tracking system was designed which used LDRs in form of a voltage divider circuit to sense the sunlight and actuate the stepper motor to rotate the panel over a single-axis so that the sun-rays the panel is perpendicular to the sun-rays. This model was tested out alongside a stationary solar panel. Readings were noted down of both panels every hour. The panel with the tracking system proved to be more productive than the stationary panel as it had generated more power over each hour. The panel could be moved both automatically with the help of the sensors and through manual mode using the blynk UI

Abstract: In this paper, we have performed handwritten digit recognition using MNIST datasets using Support Vector Machines (SVM), Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) and Convolution Neural Network (CNN) models. Our main goal is to compare the accuracy of the above models along with their execution time to obtain the best possible model for digit recognition. Reliability of humans over machines has never been so high that from classifying objects in photographs to adding sound to silent movies can all be done using deep learning and machine learning algorithms. Similarly, handwriting recognition is one of the important areas research and development with a range of possibilities that could be achieved. Handwriting recognition (HWR), also known as handwritten text recognition (HTR), is a capability computers to receive and interpret comprehensible handwritten input from sources such as paper documents, photos, touch screen

Published: October 2022

Abstract: In this study, Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) were synthesized from plant filaments and were investigated for the hydrogen adsorption capacity. Synthesis was carried out using Bagasse-a plant waste materials by pyrolyzing at high temperature of 700℃ in an inert atmosphere and were activated by different alkali solutions. The activated carbon fibres were further loaded with nano size bimetal particles. The SEM images show highly porous carbon nano structures impregnated with different combinations of metals. The EDAX and SEM confirmed the presence of bimetals. Raman spectra and X-ray diffraction indicates the presence of crystalline and amorphous carbon material. The designed carbon nanomaterial with bimetal particles has the higher specific surface area (SSA) than the carbon obtained without activation which was confirmed by the BET analysis. This makes it a front runner for its utilization in hydrogen adsorption among numerous others. The adsorption was studied using a Sievert’s apparatus

Authors: Singh Mukesh , Gupta Dr. Anirudh
Published: October 2022

Abstract: This study aimed to analyze the cost of the waste collection and transportation system of zone 2 ward 95, Kanpur. Population growth, rapid economic development and urbanization have led to an increase in the generation of solid waste. For this purpose, the maps of collection routes and locations of waste storage were drawn using Arc & QGIS software. According to the GIS maps software, the main waste collection cost was supplying human resources and fuel charges. Transfer stations are an integral part of present-day municipal solid waste management systems. The main criteria used to decide on the location of a transfer station has traditionally been the minimization of transport costs since it is cheaper to transport great amounts of waste over long distances in large loads than in small ones.Municipal solid waste (MSW) has been produced since the establishment of mankind. Solid wastes are wastes generated due to human and animal activities and are unavoidable byproducts of human activities. Routing is one of the main components of solid wastemanagement to optimize of collection route and reduce travel distance which could reduce disposal costs. Waste collection and transport can generate up to 70% of the MSW system costs. Separate collection of recyclables or organic waste raises the costs of waste collection. The proper estimation and monitoring of waste collection costs are essential to define the most cost-effective waste collection system. This has become a critical issue for every MSW company aimed at providing their services in the best possible way.

Abstract: The present study has been conducted with the purpose to explore the relationship between occupational self-efficacy of secondary school teachers and transformational leadership behavior of secondary school principals of Trashigang district in Eastern Bhutan. The study was descriptive in nature and constitute the sample of purposively selected 126 secondary school teachers and 12 secondary school principals. Published Ocupational Self-Efficacy Scale (OSES) developed by Sanjyot Pethe, Sushma Chaudhari and Upinder Dhar, (1999), and Transformational Leadership Scale, TLS-Form L-(Leader) Form developed by Dr, Surendra Nath Dubey have been used to collect the data. Investigator has computed percentage analysis, t’ test, One-Way ANOVA & Chi square to test the formulated hypotheses. The findings of the study revealed that occupational self-efficacy do not correlate with transformational leadership and male and female teachers do not differ in their occupational self-efficacy. The high and lower secondary school teachers differ in their levels of occupational self-efficacy. The study also revealed that there exists no significance difference in occupational self-efficacy of teachers with respect to years of experience.

Published: October 2022

Abstract: The main background of this study is the desire to create materials through sustainable methods that will be environmentally friendly and have low-cost production. Most authors have focused on developing aluminum matrix composites through various inorganic reinforcements. These AMCs have improved mechanical, physical, chemical, and thermal properties as well as improved wear and corrosion resistance. This paper studies alternative reinforcement materials that are organic, inexpensive, and easily available which can be used in place of inorganic reinforcements. Based on the literature that has been studied, various organic reinforcements like aloe vera, coconut husk, rice husk, and so on have been used for developing aluminum matrix composites. It was discovered that the addition of organic materials as reinforcements results in improved mechanical and physical properties of the composite materials, based on the literature review.
