“…The reason for this is that Pakistan is located in one of the world's most seismically active tectonic zones, which includes collision boundaries between the Arabian, Indian, and Eurasian plates. The active and complex tectonic system has caused more than 12 earthquakes of magnitude greater than 6.0-7.6 in the last 30years (Qadri and Malik, 2021). The Kashmir earthquake of magnitude 7.6 in 2005, the Ziarat earthquake of magnitude 6.4 in 2008, the Awaran earthquake of magnitude 7.7 in 2013 and the 2015 Himalayan earthquake of magnitude 7.5, are only a few of the notable recent events (Qadri et al, 2022).…”

“…The Kashmir earthquake of magnitude 7.6 in 2005, the Ziarat earthquake of magnitude 6.4 in 2008, the Awaran earthquake of magnitude 7.7 in 2013 and the 2015 Himalayan earthquake of magnitude 7.5, are only a few of the notable recent events (Qadri et al, 2022). These incidents resulted in many deaths and a burgeoning financial loss of billions of dollars, which is very worrying for any developing country (Khaliq et al, 2019;Qadri and Malik, 2021). Following the 2005 Kashmir earthquake, leading scientists and government departments updated the building codes model of Pakistan (BCP-SP 07, 2007).…”

This study was designed to determine the geotechnical parameters and stability of soils in the Abbottabad region of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The seven major sites with high population density were selected, covering the entire city, which includes Kalapul, Mandian, Jhangi, Nawanshehr, Cantonment, Abbottabad Courts and Jinnahabad. A total of thirty-two (32) boreholes were drilled to a depth of 5 m for standard penetration assessment and thirty two (32) field densification tests were performed at the designated sites. The standard penetration tests were carried out at every meter depth of the bore hole for recording penetration resistance, bearing potential and sample collection. Laboratory tests consisting of Grain-size analysis, Atterberg limits, California Bearing Ratio (CBR), Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS), Direct Shear Box, and Proctor Compaction were conducted according to the ASTM standards on the accrued samples. The values of the performed tests were utilized for soils characterization and inspecting the Liquidity Index, Consistency Index, and Foundation evaluation for quite a number of footings. The results showed that most of the soils of the area belong to the Clay category (CL and A6 class) with excessive values of Plasticity Index (16.9%–18.6%), Liquidity Index (−47.33% to −23.07%) and Lower CBR (3%–6%), Angle of Internal Friction (15°–20°), UCS (79 kPa–121 kPa), Dry Density (15.13 kN/m3–17.66 kN/m3), Consistency Index (123.07%–147.33%) and Bearing Capacities, except the parts of Kalapul area, which belonged to the GP (poorly graded gravels) category with significant geotechnical properties. Based on the obtained results, we found that the land in the vicinity needs significant improvement before construction. For this purpose, various concentrations of limestone (12.5% and 25%), which is heavily mined in the area, were used as an additive. The results showed that the addition of limestone powder produced a significant improvement in all investigated properties and made the soft soil suitable for construction, in addition to any extended stabilization measures. The main reason for this improvement is the presence of more dense and lower water-absorbing minerals in the limestone than in the ground, or mineralization reactions between them.

“…At this stage, most of the research on college students' mental and ideological health focuses on the value and stability of mental and ideological health, and little research with intelligent characteristics is carried out in the support customized service of characteristic mental health [ 6 ]. Aiming at the uncontrollable factors of college students' active participation in mental health support services, Lee and other scholars used the three-dimensional high-intensity fingertip algorithm to analyze the impact of different types of data groups and high-intensity matching tracking strategies and found that different types of mental health services have differences.…”

There are some problems in the active participation of college students in ideological and mental health support services in China, such as low attention, low participation, and high data redundancy. Based on this, this paper studies the active participation of college students’ ideological and mental health support service based on fuzzy cluster analysis algorithm. Compared with the disadvantages of the current mainstream discrete optimization analysis models on mental health (such as high-dimensional enterprise model, Dajiaweikang model, and short-range group control model), which need to set the known data gradient interval, this paper creatively adopts the fuzzy cluster analysis algorithm, based on the characteristics of different types of college students’ ideological and mental health problems. Combined with the improved star discrete analysis model, this paper constructs the active participatory evaluation strategy of college students’ ideological and mental health support services. On this basis, the model can not only record and store the participatory data of ideological and mental health support for students of different grades but also match and track different types of data based on special framework conditions, so as to achieve numerical normal analysis and directional matching for the data coupling mode of college students’ ideological and mental health support services. On the other hand, the Planck constant factor is used to classify different types of ideological and psychological factor data, and combined with the idea of fuzzy clustering, the hierarchical analysis and quantitative calibration of different types of data groups are realized, so as to improve the reliability and authenticity of the active participation in college students’ mental health support services. The results show that this star discrete analysis model can analyze the active participation of college students’ ideological and mental health support services according to the data matching degree of different levels and can effectively improve the analysis efficiency of data vectors. Compared with the traditional research methods on the active participation of college students’ ideological and mental health support services, this method can realize the matching and tracking of different types of data, so as to make a numerical and normal analysis on the data coupling mode of college students’ ideological and mental health support services.

“…Given the significant impact of PPE on the behaviour of concrete, different laboratory samples containing more commonly used concentrations of PPE (0%, 1%, 1.5%, 2.0%, and 2.5%) were examined in the present study using a typical mix of concrete that are commonly used in the construction purposes. The study herein integrates the experience obtained from previous studies (e.g., Haque et al, 2022 ; Shalaby et al, 2020 ; Qadri and Malik, 2021 ; Qadri et al, 2017 ; Abd El Aal, 2017 ) to provided a motivation for the present study, using integrated strategies to understand whether PPE could be reused and repurposed to reduce the pandemic-related waste and potential environmental threats that will probably end up in landfills or improper waste disposal on the roads throughout this crisis. The study also examines, for the first time, the impact of adding PPE on the internal structure of the concrete using integrated X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope at different PPE concentrations and finally assesses the environmental hazards of the PPE and recommends the best methods for decontamination of the PPE.…”
