Genealogical grammar development and text formatting in Tamil society
Language is the ultimate creation of human knowledge. As a result of linguistic activity the universe, nature, culture, the relationship between society and man, the worldview based on it, theories based on that perspective, the rules that follow are formed, the types that are taught to test those rules together form the knowledge sequence of a time. Grammars and texts were developed in such a knowledge-based dialectical community. The reading that takes place in a work in each period makes the understanding of the work run as an evolution. Thus, textual traditions based on discussions of grammatical texts formed by studying grammatical texts, the formation of grammars, bibliography and grammatical commanders can be found. Similarly, it is necessary to know the stages of textual formation and development in Tamil society on the basis of tradition
Design and Implementation of a Smart Home Energy Management System Using IoT and Machine Learning
The paper “Design and Implementation of a Smart Home Energy Management System Using IoT and Machine Learning” proposes a system that aims to optimize energy consumption in a smart home environment. The system uses Internet of Things (IoT) devices to collect real-time data on energy usage and machine learning algorithms to predict future consumption patterns. This paper proposes the use of deep neural networks (DNNs) for the design and implementation of a smart home energy management system using IoT and machine learning techniques. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of the system through experimental results, showing significant energy savings compared to traditional methods. The DNN is built using Keras or Tensor Flow and is trained on extracted features from energy consumption data collected using IoT sensors. The system is implemented with a real-time monitoring system and a user interface for remote access. The proposed system has the potential to save energy and reduce energy costs for households while providing real-time feedback to the user
Assessing the effect of iron on oral health status among the general population residing in high and low levels of iron blocks in Namakkal District, Tamil Nadu, India: A cross-sectional study
Aim: This study aims to assess the effect of iron on oral health status among the general population residing in high and low levels of iron blocks in the Namakkal district of Tamil Nadu, India. Materials and Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted to assess the impact of iron on oral health among people in the Namakkal district of Tamil Nadu, India. The sample size was estimated to be 600, which were equally divided into two groups based on the high and low levels of iron (300 samples) content of water in the Namakkal district based on the multistage random sampling method. A pre-tested structured questionnaire was used to collect the demographic data and oral hygiene practices of the people. Dental stains were recorded using a modified Lobene stain index. P value < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results: The area and intensity of the dental stains were not significant with age, gender, and blocks. There was no statistically significant difference between the high iron and low iron blocks for the area (A), intensity (I), and I × A of stains. Conclusion: The study concludes that the water samples with both high and low levels of iron had a strong impact on the oral health of the people
A theoretical study on the reaction mechanism and kinetics of allyl alcohol (CH<sub>2</sub> = CHCH<sub>2</sub>OH) with ozone (O<sub>3</sub>) in the atmosphere
<p>Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play a major role in the physical and chemical process of the tropospheric chemical reactions in both polluted and remote environments. A theoretical work has been presented on the VOC of allyl alcohol with O<sub>3</sub> molecule is investigated using density functional theory methods. The reaction profile is initiated through the cycloaddition of ozone which leads to the formation of primary ozonide with minimal relative energy barrier of 1.31 kcal/mol which decomposes to form carbonyl molecule and carbonyl oxide. Carbonyl oxide, i.e. criegee intermediates reacts with various atmospheric species to produce more hazardous and toxic end products to the environment. The condensed form of Fukui function was calculated to predict reactive sites of the primary and secondary reaction profile. The rate coefficient using CVT with SCT over the temperature range of 258–358K is analysed and also to study the atmospheric effects of allyl alcohol in the atmosphere. The predicted rate coefficient for the favourable reaction pathway of <i>k</i><sub>p1</sub> found to be 1.190 ×10<sup>−15</sup> cm<sup>3</sup>/molecule/sec and comparable with the experimental result at 298 K. The atmospheric lifetime of allyl alcohol was found to be around 10 hours in addition to that global warming potentials are compared with the CO<sub>2</sub>.</p
Prevalence of oral health status among the general population in Kallakurichi District, Tamil Nadu, India. A cross-sectional study
Aim: The aim of this study is to analyze the prevalence of oral health status among the general population in Kallakurichi district, Tamil Nadu, India. Materials and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among the general public in the Kallakurichi district. A total number of 176 samples were selected and equally divided among urban (88 samples) and rural areas (88 samples). The samples were obtained from various parts of urban and rural areas in the Kallakurichi district based on the multistage random sampling method. The data regarding oral health status was recorded using the World Health Organization (WHO) Proformas 2013 and 1997. The collected data were tabulated and analyzed using the Chi-square test. Results: The prevalence of dental caries (74.1%) was found to be the highest in the Kallakurichi district, followed by malocclusion (71.7%) and periodontal diseases (66.7%). A significant result was found in dental caries, dental fluorosis, dental trauma, and dental erosion between the index age groups. Conclusion: The government of Tamil Nadu should take proper preventive measures and also provide oral health knowledge and awareness among the public to overcome these dental problems
An analysis of gender differences and assessment of oral health status among the general population residing in Kanyakumari District: A pathfinding scientific study
Aim: The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence oral health status among the general population residing in Kanyakumari district, Tamil Nadu, India. Materials and Method: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among the general public of index age groups to analyze the oral health status in the Kanyakumari district. A total number of 400 samples were selected and were equally divided among urban (200 samples) and rural areas (200 samples). The samples were further divided randomly based on the index age groups 5, 12, 15, 35–44, and 65–74 years using the multistage random sampling method. The data regarding oral health status was recorded using the World Health Organization's (WHO's) Oral Health Assessment Form 2013 and 1997. Collected data were tabulated and analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Chi-squared test. Results: The prevalence of periodontal diseases (88.75%) was found to be highest in Kanyakumari district, followed by dental caries (63.7%) and malocclusion (63.1%). There was a statistically significant difference found between oral health status and index age groups. Conclusion: Oral disorders such as dental caries, periodontitis, and dental fluorosis are more prevalent among the Kanyakumari district population. Oral health policies should be targeted to the populations in the Tamil Nadu region
