An Exploratory View on Congregating God and Science through Variegating Perspectives

Science is often associated with atheistic ideologies. The field of science is thought to be as one of the disciplines, wherein only rational and logical theories are often applicable. Moreover, anything that cannot be explained in terms of logical scientific theories or formula is termed as supernatural or irrational. This has also created a stereotypic notion among people that whoever is a patron of scientific ideas ought to be an atheist. Some scientists have been a fuel to this stereotype by openly embracing atheism. Furthermore, rationalism has gotten us far in the field of science. However, the ground reality is that the answers to seemingly impossible-tosolve questions cannot be discovered with logic alone. Hence, we refuse to believe in something, which is not scientific. Also, we may consider things, which we think as „beyond science‟ to make further developments within it. The reason being, it enables the mind to embrace creativity and look at various possibilities from different perspectives. This perspective of scientific thinking might even help us to resolve paradoxes and provide answers to questions like „Does God Exist?‟ Keeping these aforementioned notions, this conceptual paper overlooks on scientific theories with an exploratory view from a variegating perspective by substantiating the „String Theory‟ concepts to understand the possibility of existence of higher dimensions (up to 10th dimension) and facilitates to explain the existence of God.

Fuzzy System Based Load Frequency Control of Hydro-Thermal -Thermal Interconnected Power System

Today, in power systems the Load Frequency Control (LFC) problem plays a vital role in an interconnected power system, wherein it maintains the system frequency and tie line flow at their scheduled values during normal period. It is due to frequency of power system, which changes over time with respect to continuous load variation. The present chapter proposes a new methodology to study the Load Frequency Control (LFC) problem of a three area inter-connected system using R Fuzzy system (FS) approach. Moreover, this technique is applied to control the systems which include three areas considering a non-linearity Generation Rate constraint (GRC) having two steam turbines and one hydro-turbine tied together. The main advantage of this controller is its high insensitivity to large load changes and plant parameter variations even in the presence of non-linearity. Furthermore, it is tested on a three-area power system to illustrate its robust performance. The results obtained by using Rule Based Fuzzy PID controller explicitly show that the performance of this proposed controller is superior to conventional controller in terms of several parameters like overshoot, settling time and robustness.

Land Use and Land Cover Spatial Distribution in Pondicherry Coastal Region Using Remote Sensing and GIS Techniques with Special Reference to Aquaculture Development

The remote sensing with GIS plays a major role in land use land cover changes. The satellite imageries of IRS 1C LISS III (1998), IRS 1D LISS III (2000) and P6 (2008 & 2014) have been used for land use and land cover map preparation. The change detection study has been carried out in a GIS environment. The results observed through many research studies have showed agriculture land was reduced from 10,968 ha to 6214.24 ha due to rapid industrialization and settlements. Pondicherry having a coastal line of 45 km also has had significant potential in fisheries. Interestingly out of 800 ha of potential fisheries area, only 138 ha of aquaculture land is utilized. Hence, commercial aquaculture can be encouraged in this area, as it should not affect the other area. It is a good economic source for local people. Moreover, the socio-economic impacts on vegetation, with settlement, plantation, aquaculture, agriculture, fallow lands and marshy lands have also been identified. The present study will be useful for policy makers towards further development and management.

Sexual Victimization of Women Police and Its Deleterious Impact on the Victims: A Thematic View

Sexual victimization of women prevails as a common phenomenon across the globe. It is neither limited to a specific place nor a particular profession. The police department is often represented as law enforcement agency, wherein it owes the responsibility to prevent crimes and maintain peace and harmony in society. The public point of view towards this profession is like 'Police profession is powerful‟. However, in reality, the police do face many sufferings during the course in their profession. Among all problems, one issue addressed in this chapter is „sexual victimizations of women police‟. The reason being sexual victimization can destructively affect the victim's lifestyle, disturb the job efficiency and develop detachment from the workplace, which is more so in the case of women police. Hence, the present research chapter intends to understand the holistic aspects of sexual harassment of women police and its deleterious impact through thematic method of representation.

Conceptual Study of Techno-Stress on Women in Non-IT Sector

Over past few months, teaching and technology experienced a special bond owning to the Covid-19 induced new normal. The use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools in a work-from-home (WFH) scenario though proved prospective for many user/educators. In the hindsight, it has disrupted work-life balance causing counterproductive results. The stakes were high with inadequate training, fund allocation, unidentified strategies, skill deficit and scarce collaborative approaches in the teaching fraternity, further making it quite difficult for an educator to cope-up with sudden challenges to re-invent the teaching trends accordingly. Hence, in this milieu, fast gaining attention is idea of ‘Technostress’. It is conceptually defined as any form of ICT that stimulates stress over the user striving to interact effectively through numerous technological platforms/ gadgets for a substantial span of time. Though past researchers had analyzed it with job satisfaction, employee performance, work load, behavioral stress and aspects of work-family conflict; a special treatment of women educators (in Indian context) undergoing the stress is awaited. In furtherance, education technology with its affinity towards pedagogy, educational policy administrators, technology developers and market are yet to identify women educators need exclusively. Together factors bearing stress under technology-overdrive with strategies to alleviate the same. Now, it is time to reckon women educator’s need, ability, and interest, which should be mapped on optimum and effective use of technology.

Effect of Jeevamrutham on the Growth and Development of Amaranthus Viridis

Organic farming is a holistic agricultural system that enhances soil quality. Amaranth viridis is a popular a nutritious leaf vegetable that contain gluten-free grain which provides plenty of fiber, proteins and micronutrients which is used in herbal medicine. An organic fertilizer called Jeevamrutham is developed by using cow dung, cow urine, jiggery and pulses flour. Application of this fertilizer Amaranthus fields enhanced the physicochemical properties of the soil such as pH, EC, N, P, K, and organic carbon content. Microbes such as Azospirillum and Actinomycetes are enhanced in experimental soil. The quantity of phytohormones like indole acetic acid, Gibberlic acid, Abscisic acid and kinetin are also increased. In total there is an increase in biomass, shoot length and root length in Amaranthus Viridis plant with Jeevamrutham. Thus, Jeevamrutham can be efficiently used organic fertilizer to improve growth and development and yield of Amaranthus Viridis.

Short-Term and Long-Term Effect of Acidic and Alkaline pH on the Mortality, pH Tolerance, Growth and Development Pattern of Shrimp (Litopenaeus Vannamei)

Hence, Short-term (24 hours) and long-term (90 days) effect of acidic and alkaline pH on the mortality, pH tolerance, growth and development pattern of Litopenaeus Vannamei has been studied. The sub-lethal limit was determined after exposing Litopenaeus Vannamei for 168 hours in all pH media. Furthermore, from the experimental results, it has been observed that sub-lethal limit was from 6.5pH to 8.5pH. The growth of shrimp was studied from 10 days up to 90 days period at different ranges, wherein the maximum reduction has been found in the first ten days only. However, at the end of the experiment there has been 12.41 percent decrease in the body weight at 8.5pH and in total 16.58 percent productivity get decreased.

Workplace Issues and Challenges of Women Employees

Women employees are facing more challenges in their day-to-day life. Hence, to maintain their work-life balance, they are crossing many hurdles, wherein workplace issues has been one of the major challenges faced by every women employee in the world. The reason being much harassment is occurring against the women employees in all employment sectors. Even though there are more legal remedies and statutory labour welfare measures to protect women in the workplace. The foremost issues of working women globally are career progression, pay parity, harassment, child rearing and work-life balance. Hence, there is a sheer necessity to understand the aforementioned issues. The present chapter intended to analyze the workplace issues of working women as an outcome of a program conducted on legal awareness for students and working women. In furtherance, the researcher has used the data sources from the project sponsored by NCW (National Commission for Women), wherein in both gender were taken as respondents. The study included 148 respondents out of which there are working women and students from both the genders and analysed in two dimensions, one is from the perspective of working women about workplace issues and other from students’ perspective to understand awareness level on workplace issues of women employees. The results showed that working women respondents have strongly agreed that workplace harassments and conflict of work-life balance are stronger issues than other challenges like shiftsystem, long working hours and gender discrimination. Also, the students (both male and female) revealed that awareness level of male students regarding workplace issues is good and opined that conflict in work-life balance and work doing night shift are predominant issues of working women and awareness of female students indicated that sexual harassment and child rearing are the major hurdles in their career progress.
