Every development activity is always related to human or community aspects. This can also lead to changes in the characteristics of the community. The community's increasing awareness and critical attitude need to be accommodated to avoid the emergence of social conflicts in the future. This research is to find out how the public perception about the impact of development on the environment. Two methods are used, i.e., MDA (Maximum Dependency Attribute) and MSMD (the Multi soft set multivariate distribution function). The MDA is to determine the most influential attribute and the Multi soft set multivariate distribution function (MSMD) is to group the selected data into classes with similar characteristics. This will help the police producer plan the right mediation and take quick activity to make strides in the quality of the social environment. The experiment conducted level of impact based on the clustering results with the greatest number of member clusters is cluster 1 (very low impact) with 32.25 % of total data following cluster 5 (Very High impact) with 24.25 % of total data. The experiment obtains the level of impact based on the clustering results. The greatest number of member clusters is cluster 1 (extremely low impact) with 32.25 % of total data following cluster 5 (Very High impact) with 24.25 % of total data. The scatter area impact is spread at districts 6, 7, 10, 11, the most of very high impact and districts 1,2,3,4,5,8 the lowest impact.Â
We investigate a class of nonequilibrium media described by Langevin dynamics that satisfies the local detailed balance. For the effective dynamics of a probe immersed in the medium, we derive an inequality that bounds the violation of the second fluctuation-dissipation relation (FDR). We also discuss the validity of the effective dynamics. In particular, we show that the effective dynamics obtained from nonequilibrium linear response theory is consistent with that obtained from a singular perturbation method. As an example of these results, we propose a simple model for a nonequilibrium medium in which the particles are subjected to potentials that switch stochastically. For this model, we show that the second FDR is recovered in the fast switching limit, although the particles are out of equilibrium.
We focus on understanding the influence of the two-component coupling in ferronematics, a colloidal suspension of magnetic nanoparticles in nematic liquid crystals. Using coarse-grained Landau-de Gennes free energies, we study the ordering dynamics of this complex fluid and present a range of analytical and numerical results. Our main observations are: (i) slaved coarsening for quench temperatures $T$ intermediate to the critical temperatures of the uncoupled components, (ii) slower growth similar to the Lifshitz-Slyozov law ($L \sim t^{1/3}$) for symmetric magneto-nematic coupling, (iii) sub-domain morphologies dominated by interfacial defects for asymmetric coupling strengths. These novel results will serve to guide future experiments on this technologically important system.

In their comment on our work (ArXiv:1912.07056v1), Cavagna \textit{et al.} raise several interesting points on the phenomenology of flocks of birds, and conduct additional data analysis to back up their points. In particular, they question the existence of rigid body rotations in flocks of birds. In this reply, we first clarify the notions of rigid body rotations, and of rigidity itself. Then, we justify why we believe that it is legitimate to wonder about their importance when studying the spatial correlations between speeds in flocks of birds.
This chapter explores the notion of "dimension" of a set. Various power laws by which an Euclidean space can be characterized are used to define dimensions, which then explore different aspects of the set. Also discussed are the generalization to multifractals, and discrete and continuous scale invariance with the emergence of complex dimensions. The idea of renormalization group flow equations can be introduced in this framework, to show how the power laws determined by dimensional analysis (engineering dimensions) get modified by extra anomalous dimensions. As an example of the RG flow equation, the scaling of conductance by disorder in the context of localization is used. A few technicalities, including the connection between entropy and fractal dimension, can be found in the appendices.
Directed transport of interacting active (self-propelled)Brownian particles is numerically investigated in confined geometries (entropic barriers). The self-propelled velocity can break thermodynamical equilibrium and induce the directed transport. It is found that the interaction between active particles can greatly affect the ratchet transport. For attractive particles, on increasing the interaction strength, the average velocity firstly decreases to its minima, then increases, and finally decreases to zero. For repulsive particles, when the interaction is very weak, there exists a critical interaction at which the average velocity is minimal, nearly tends to zero, however, for the strong interaction, the average velocity is independent of the interaction.

It is a great challenge of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics to calculate entropy production within a microscopic theory. In the framework of linear irreversible thermodynamics, we combine the Mori-Zwanzig-Forster projection operator technique with the first and second law of thermodynamics to obtain microscopic expressions for the entropy production as well as for the transport equations of the entropy density and its time correlation function. We further present a microscopic derivation of a dissipation functional from which the dissipative dynamics of an extended dynamical density functional theory can be obtained in a formally elegant way.
We numerically investigate the rheological properties of jammed frictionless granular materials under an oscillatory shear in terms of our simulation of the distinct element method. It is demonstrated that the constitutive relation between the shear stress and the shear strain of grains strongly depends on the amplitude and the frequency of the oscillatory shear. For a small amplitude region, the granular material behaves as a visco-elastic material characterized by the Kelvin-Voigt model, while it behaves as a yield stress liquid for a large amplitude region. We find that the rheology of grains under the large amplitude oscillatory shear can be described by a phenomenological constitutive model.
We investigate the nature of the effective dynamics and statistical forces obtained after integrating out nonequilibrium degrees of freedom. To be explicit, we consider the Rouse model for the conformational dynamics of an ideal polymer chain subject to steady driving. We compute the effective dynamics for one of the many monomers by integrating out the rest of the chain. The result is a generalized Langevin dynamics for which we give the memory and noise kernels and the effective force, and we discuss the inherited nonequilibrium aspects.
