 Abstract

The social science is dominated by the psychoanalytical study as it has become an important tool of understanding the human mind since the 20th century. The famous psychologist Sigmund Freud contributed significantly and provided a basis to set the psychoanalytical studies. He offered several terms that explained behavioural conditions of human minds. Psychoanalysis has helped the counsellor immensely to understand and treat the patients effectively. The present research paper undertakes an effort to humbly analyse the following psychoanalytical parameters such as alienation, ambivalence and despair in Hermann Hesse�s Steppenwolf. Alienation is a psychosomatic disorder that makes an individual recluse and aloof. Individual suffering from alienation usually starts living a secluded life. Such individual may stop having social communication. Ambivalence is the possession of contrasting emotions or feelings towards the same object. The object in question could be a living entity or a non-living entity or situation. If an individual feels contrasting emotions towards the object, he is said to be ambivalent towards the object. Despair is the lack of hope. Despair is experienced commonly by human beings. Difficult and struggling periods of life often bring despair.

These days, teachers are getting affected by respiratory diseases and skin allergies because of using chalk for long duration. Continuous use of chalk-dust also affects vision of a human being. As dust contains tiny particulates of chalk, they tend to accumulate in human respiratory system which can create severe health issues. Traditionally, chalk dusters are being cleaned by beating them on floor, wall or hitting dusters together which triggers above problems and causes environmental pollution. Hence a machine is designed to clean chalkboard dusters. In this paper, transient analysis of the base table has been carried out using ANSYS workbench. Modeling is done using CATIA software. With the help of varying mesh size, the results are plotted and represented graphically. The effect of load is also studied by observing the stresses & deformation. The stresses are found to be within limit & much lesser.

 Abstract

The heterogeneous photocatalytic water cleaning process has gained attention due to its efficiency in degrading and mineralizing the recalcitrant organic compounds. This process is based on the light-enhanced generation of highly reactive hydroxyl radicals, which oxidizes the organic matter and convert it into water, CO2, inorganic compounds etc. The present work consists of photocatalytic degradation of dyes which are released by textile industries in water, using tungsten containing photocatalysts (WO3, BaWO4, Ba3Y2WO9). It is observed that the degradation of the dyes (Azure B and P-Rosaniline hydrochloride) depends on several parameters such as pH, dye concentration, photocatalyst, concentration, intensity of light and reaction temperature. Kinetic studies reveal that the photocatalytic process follows pseudo-first order kinetics.

 Abstract

Guy de Maupassant is acknowledged through the world as one of the masters of the short story. His full name is Henry-Rene-Albert Guy de Maupassant. He was born on 5 August, 1850. His father name was Gustave de Maupassant and mother name was Laure Le Poittevin. Guy de Maupassant had a lot of struggle in real life. But his literary life was very prosperous. Maupassant completed his primary school education at the local church. After his mother and father divorced in 1861, Maupassant stayed with his mother. Through her parenting, he was exposed to literature, which would set him on the path to becoming a writer. Guy de Maupassant met Gustave Flaubert, a French writer, in high school in 1867. His mother, seeing his love for literature, encouraged him to connect with Flaubert, which paid off later in his life. He wrote 300 short stories, six novels, three travel books and one volume of verse. His first published story, �Boule de Suif� (The Dumpling, 1880) is often considered his masterpiece. His short stories is mainly divided into three parts. Some of his short stories mentions about Franco Prussian war. When Maupassant had twenty years old in 1870 he contributed to the Franco prussian war and seeing the actual description of the war, he described in the short story. Therefore, there is some kind of historical taste in their short story.

 Abstract

The original KNN algorithm takes into account the K nearest neighbours of a testing point, and that class or label is assigned to the testing point which holds a majority among the selected K points. But the algorithm does not take into account the classes or labels of the closest neighbours of each of the K selected points. If we also take this parameter into account, we can increase the accuracy of the KNN algorithm. The modified algorithm, has been implemented in [1]. We have taken the same algorithm and applied it on a customer classification dataset, and varied the parameters to increase accuracy and determine their most optimum values.

 Abstract

Love and sex are no longer regarded taboo in Indian society, at least by the younger generation. The society has come of age and can talk openly, boldly and with confidence about love and sex. Eroticism has always been there in Indian literature but in refined ways. It is invariably described in implicit terms. It is really an irony that in the land of the Kamasutra, any discussion on love and sex was derided till very recently. But many of the present generation of Indian English writers are going global in their presentation of love and sex in the writings. They have appeal for the international audience in analyzing and presenting human relation under the perspective of sex, love and marriage. The present paper is a humble attempt to present a brief outline of how Chetan Bhagat, one of the most popular writers of the contemporary young generation, has a free and frank portrayal of love and sex in three of his novels--- One Night @ the Call Centre, The 3 Mistakes of My Life, and in 2 States: The Story of My Marriage. Pre-marriage sex is no more a taboo and the young India can talk of it, indulge in it and celebrate it paying proper attention to safe sex. The paper is an attempt to analyse the sexual relation and physical intimacy between characters as portrayed by Bhagat in the said novels.

Objective: Number of infection per unit population of country and related deaths due to COVID-19 is being reported different in all countries, seems not related with population density of country or hygiene level of country as anticipated. Factors contributing for different infection rates is not completely understood. This study is aimed at analyzing the correlation of COVID-19 infection by statistical method using open source data available with demographic and environmental parameters including EMF radiation of mobile and broadband with wi-fi router. Statistical analysis design: Open source data on target parameter COVID-19 infections per unit population and related mortality were analysed for correlation with open source data on 14 various predictor parameters like Population Density, Net Migrants, Median Age, Vegetarian diet (%), % Urban Population, % Mobile Penetration in country, Mobile Connection Speed, Number of Fixed Broad Band Subscriptions in the country with wi-fi router, Fixed Broad Band Speed, Average February � March Temperature, % BCG Immunization Coverage, % Total & Urban Population using at least basic sanitation services and Per Capita CO2 Emissions. For statistical analysis, both actual data and average of data within sets of ranging infections per unit population have been considered. Also a mathematical model is generated for prediction of infections, using regression technique on best correlated parameter and also using combination of highly correlated parameters. This regression model could be used to calculate expected infections in the country under influence of set of parameters. Additionally, difference between actual infection and predicted infection calculated by this model, could be useful for finding out effectiveness of implementing other measures by the country to control infection below expected value and vice versa. Results: with respect to target parameter total infection cases per unit population, top 7 predictor parameters in descending order of correlation coefficient values (?) are: Net Migrant / 1M Population (0.784), Fixed Broad Band Speed (0.749), Number of Fixed Broad Band with wi-fi router Subscriptions per unit population (0.694), Per Capita CO2 Emission (0.689), Median Age (0.637), % Urban Population (0.598) and % Total Population using at least basic sanitation services (0.597). Also with respect to another target parameter i.e. death per unit cases in the country, relatively lower ? values are obtained. Top 5 parameters in descending order of correlation coefficient values (?) are: Number of Fixed Broad Band with wi-fi router Subscriptions per unit population (0.678), Tot cases/ 1M population (0.623), % BCG Immunization Coverage (-0.576; negative directional), Median Age (0.552) and Fixed Broad Band Speed (0.503). Additionally regression analysis helped in generating mathematical model of finding a combined parameters with higher correlation ? value 0.846. The regression equation helped to calculate expected infection numbers and difference with actual could be utilized to access effectiveness of country in controlling infection by other means. Conclusion: Statistical analysis showed highest correlation on COVID-19 infection and related deaths with use of high speed broadband services with wi-fi router, may be due to ill effects on health and immune power of electromagnetic radiation. There is need for further research on mechanism by which electromagnetic radiation influences COVID-19 infection. Also need to find out whether the effect of EMF radiation is temporary or permanent i.e. if radiation is reduced; infections and deaths are reduces or not.
