The construction industry, one of the major environmental degrading and resource-consuming industries, plays a major role. This study examines how waste material is used in green concrete as a sustainable solution to minimize environmental burdens and save natural resources. Utilizing waste material such as silica fume, fly ash, recycled aggregates, and ground-granulated slag from blast furnaces (GGBFS), recycled plastic, and biopolymers, green concrete minimizes carbon emissions as well as reduces the need for virgin materials. In this paper, it is discussed how the application of such waste products in green concrete minimizes the carbon footprint and saves natural resources, whereas on the other hand, it also saves material and construction costs. Life cycle assessment studies and sustainability analysis give a valuable comparison in overall sustainability between green concrete and conventional concrete. Challenges and future directions in this field elucidate the uniformity of waste material quality, regulatory support, and public acceptance. The scope of further research lies in the development of material characterization, long-term durability studies, and technological advancement, which promise to deliver desired performance and applications of green concrete.","PeriodicalId":517802,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Applied Science, Engineering and Technology","volume":"18 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141839119","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, installation of floating photovoltaics in water reservoirs in Greece has not been reported so far. Kourna lake is the only natural lake in Crete located in the western part of the island in an idyllic and environmentally protected site while several touristic activities have been developed locally. The characteristics of the lake are mentioned and various parameters of a floating photovoltaic system which can be installed have been evaluated. A floating photovoltaic system with nominal power at 2.42 MWp can be installed on its surface with coverage ratio 5% generating 3.6 GWh annually. If the coverage ratio of the surface is at 10% the nominal power of the installed floating photovoltaic system will be at 4.83 MWp while the annually generated electricity will be at 7.24 GWh corresponding at 0.24% of the power demand in the island in 2018. The advantages and the drawbacks of the novel floating energy system have been stated. The acceptance of the abovementioned solar energy system from the local community is a prerequisite for its successful installation avoiding local conflicts and protests related with the co-existence of the current touristic activities with solar power generation in the lake.","PeriodicalId":517802,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Applied Science, Engineering and Technology","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141705465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Established measures were used to assess cybersecurity awareness, perceived behavioral control, and cybersecurity behavior, with strict adherence to ethical considerations and data confidentiality. The study discovered a significant positive correlation among students' cybersecurity awareness, perceived behavioral control, and cybersecurity behavior. Both awareness and perceived control were found to be strong predictors of cybersecurity behavior, indicating that students with higher awareness and confidence in their abilities are more likely to engage in positive cybersecurity practices. These findings underscore the importance of educational efforts in promoting cybersecurity behavior among high school students. By enhancing cybersecurity awareness and promoting a sense of control among students, educators, and policymakers can better prepare them to navigate the digital landscape safely.

In the present work, some concluding remarks are given in the following.(1) In the heavily doped emitter region, the effective density of electrons (holes), N^*, given in parabolic conduction (valence) bands, expressed as functions of the total dense impurity density, N, donor (acceptor)-radius, r_(d(a)), and x-concentration, is defined in Eq.

Then, we have showed that (i) the origin of such the Mott’s criterium, Eq. (9a), is exactly obtained from the reduced effective Wigner-Seitz radius r_(sn(sp)), characteristic of interactions, as given in Equations (9b, 9c), and further (ii) N_(CDn(CDp)) is just the density of electrons (holes) localized in the exponential conduction (valence)-band tail (EBT), as that demonstrated in [1].
