'meta' to 'multi'- pandemic timepass ideation thoughts

first i must say face book must give back the new name

pandemic thoughts has nothing to do with meta,face book -it is called new thoughts which nobody else had the time to think before;; till pandemic gave the innovation and time to think
ideation cannot be taught by stanford on its staircase for cash
luck was on the side of great thinkers and scientists ;because e mail was not yet discovered  to harass them to think and ideate ;or offered as something to study for dollars
nincompoops cannot be made to innovate or ideate by special courses

so back to idle thoughts- what is after meta( NOT TALKING OF FACE BOOK)?
WILL META LEAD TO MULTI?
SO WHAT IS MULTI?WILL IT BE A  TRILLION TIMES BETTER?
I THOUGHT (NOT IDEATED) -WHY NOT ASK GOOGLE

Social robot - Wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Social_robot
Like other robots, a social robot is physically embodied (avatars or on-screen synthetic social characters are not embodied and thus distinct).

Examples

One of the most well-known social robots currently in development is Sophia, developed by Hanson Robotics. Sophia is a social humanoid robot that can display more than 50 facial expressions, and is the first non-human to be given a United Nations title.

SoftBank Robotics has developed multiple social, semi-humanoid robots which are frequently used in research, including Pepper and Nao. Pepper is used both commercially and academically, as well as being used by consumers in over a thousand homes in Japan.

Other notable examples of social robots include ASIMO by Honda, Jibo, Moxi, and Kaspar, designed by University of Hertfordshire to help children with autism learn responses from the robot through games and interactive play.[21] Anki's robots Cozmo and Vector also fell into the category of social robots, but all were shut down between 2018 and 2019.

Social robots do not necessarily have to be humanoid. The most famous example of a non-humanoid social robot is Paro the seal.

    How a 195-year-old discovery could build the future of energy

    The need to transition to clean energy is apparent, urgent, and inescapable.

    PhotoQuest/Archive Photos/Getty Images

    The need to transition to clean energy is apparent, urgent, and inescapable. We must limit Earth’s rising temperature to within 1.5 C to avoid the worst effects of climate change — an especially daunting challenge in the face of the steadily increasing global demand for energy.

    Part of the answer is using energy more efficiently. More than 72 percent of all energy produced worldwide is lost in the form of heat. For example, the engine in a car uses only about 30 percent of the gasoline it burns to move the car. The remainder is dissipated as heat.

    Recovering even a tiny fraction of that lost energy would have a tremendous impact on climate change. Thermoelectric materials, which convert wasted heat into useful electricity, can help.

    Until recently, the identification of these materials had been slow. My colleagues and I have used quantum computations — a computer-based modeling approach to predict materials’ properties — to speed up that process and identify more than 500 thermoelectric materials that could convert excess heat to electricity, and help improve energy efficiency.

    The transformation of heat into electrical energy by thermoelectric materials is based on the “Seebeck effect.” In 1826, German physicist Thomas Johann Seebeck observed that exposing the ends of joined pieces of dissimilar metals to different temperatures generated a magnetic field, which was later recognized to be caused by an electric current.

    Shortly after his discovery, metallic thermoelectric generators were fabricated to convert heat from gas burners into an electric current. But, as it turned out, metals exhibit only a low Seebeck effect — they are not very efficient at converting heat into electricity.

    In 1929, the Russian scientist Abraham Ioffe revolutionized the field of thermoelectricity. He observed that semiconductors — materials whose ability to conduct electricity falls between that of metals (like copper) and insulators (like glass) — exhibit a significantly higher Seebeck effect than metals, boosting thermoelectric efficiency 40-fold, from 0.1 percent to four percent.

    This discovery led to the development of the first widely used thermoelectric generator, the Russian lamp — a kerosene lamp that heated a thermoelectric material to power a radio.

    Are we there yet? — Today, thermoelectric applications range from energy generation in space probes to cooling devices in portable refrigerators. For example, space explorations are powered by radioisotope thermoelectric generators, converting the heat from naturally decaying plutonium into electricity. In the movie The Martian, for example, a box of plutonium saved the life of the character played by Matt Damon, by keeping him warm on Mars.

    In the 2015 film, The Martian, astronaut Mark Watney (Matt Damon) digs up a buried thermoelectric generator to use the power source as a heater.

    Despite this vast diversity of applications, the wide-scale commercialization of thermoelectric materials is still limited by their low efficiency.

    What’s holding them back? Two key factors must be considered: the conductive properties of the materials, and their ability to maintain a temperature difference, which makes it possible to generate electricity.

    The best thermoelectric material would have the electronic properties of semiconductors and the poor heat conduction of glass. But this unique combination of properties is not found in naturally occurring materials. We have to engineer them.

    Searching for a needle in a haystack — In the past decade, new strategies to engineer thermoelectric materials have emerged due to an enhanced understanding of their underlying physics. In a recent study in Nature Materials, researchers from Seoul National University, Aachen University, and Northwestern University reported they had engineered a material called tin selenide with the highest thermoelectric performance to date, nearly twice that of 20 years ago. But it took them nearly a decade to optimize it.

    To speed up the discovery process, my colleagues and I have used quantum calculations to search for new thermoelectric candidates with high efficiencies. We searched a database containing thousands of materials to look for those that would have high electronic qualities and low levels of heat conduction, based on their chemical and physical properties. These insights helped us find the best materials to synthesize and test and calculate their thermoelectric efficiency.

    We are almost at the point where thermoelectric materials can be widely applied, but first, we need to develop much more efficient materials. With so many possibilities and variables, finding the way forward is like searching for a tiny needle in an enormous haystack.

    Just as a metal detector can zero in on a needle in a haystack, quantum computations can accelerate the discovery of efficient thermoelectric materials. Such calculations can accurately predict electron and heat conduction (including the Seebeck effect) for thousands of materials and unveil the previously hidden and highly complex interactions between those properties, which can influence a material’s efficiency.

    Large-scale applications will require thermoelectric materials that are inexpensive, non-toxic, and abundant. Lead and tellurium are found in today’s thermoelectric materials, but their cost and negative environmental impact make them good targets for replacement.

    Quantum calculations can be applied in a way to search for specific sets of materials using parameters such as scarcity, cost, and efficiency. Although those calculations can reveal optimum thermoelectric materials, synthesizing the materials with the desired properties remains a challenge.

    A multi-institutional effort involving government-run laboratories and universities in the United States, Canada, and Europe have revealed more than 500 previously unexplored materials with high predicted thermoelectric efficiency. My colleagues and I are currently investigating the thermoelectric performance of those materials in experiments, and have already discovered new sources of high thermoelectric efficiency.

    Those initial results strongly suggest that further quantum computations can pinpoint the most efficient combinations of materials to make clean energy from wasted heat and avert the catastrophe that looms over our planet.

    Fresh water from a well in the sea at Rameswaram

    In Rameswaram, an Island on the South east coast of India, there is a well some distance into the sea that provides water which is not salty and can be drunk. This is  a holy place and according to Hindu mythology Lord Rama shot an arrow into the sea to get water to drink for his wife Sita. This is known as the Villundi Tīrtham well.  How is it possible that you get non-salty water amid the sea water?

    The Earth has Oceans which occur in “basins”. Continents, that is land we live on, is higher than the water level in the Oceans. (If you are keen for more, read about Isostasy.)

    On land, groundwater occurs beneath the surface in what geologists call as Aquifers. Aquifers are geologic formations that can store and transmit water. Note that geologic formations are rock strata that have similar properties (for example rocks of a certain chemical and mineral nature is one such property). These have been deposited over millions of years (if you are interested read about stratigraphy, erosion, landforms, geologic time, etc).

    Under some instances water gets collected from rain, rivers, and other sources and is stored underground in aquifers.

    Aquifers constantly interact with other water sources, atmosphere, and is governed by forces such as pressure and gravity. The geologic formations too determine the aquifer’s nature – porosity, permeability, storage capacity, etc.

    Groundwater near the coast interacts with the sea water too. The figure (source: Solinst) shows theoretically how groundwater exists. In reality though it is very complex.

    Groundwater is recharged by rain and lakes or rivers. Thus Groundwater is not stagnant and flows. The flow is described by Darcy’s law which in simple terms means “groundwater flows depending on pressure and the length of the aquifer medium”. This pressure is the reason we are able to dig wells. This is often the capillary pressure.

    Groundwater can be confined within strata and be under pressure. Or it may not have a confining layer and could be seen close to the surface.

    The level to which groundwater can raise is the water table. Of course this is only for groundwater that is not confined by impervious or semi impervious strata. The potentiomentric surface is used to describe the water table level.

    On the coasts, groundwater exists in “dynamic and often transient equilibrium” with sea water. Sea water is denser and filtrates into the ground beneath the sea and on to the land.

    Groundwater should flow – discharge into the sea – as long as the water table level is at a higher pressure gradient. Sea water in turn will try to flow in and contaminate the fresh groundwater. There is a seawater-freshwater interface (not a sharp line!) that is transient and keeps changing with rainfall, river or lake discharge, tides and evaporation.

    If humans pump out water from the coastal areas, sea water intrudes the fresher groundwater. The Gyben-Herzberg equation governs the fresher groundwater aquifer-sea water interface. For every feet of water on the surface, some 40 feet of groundwater exists below sea level.

    So what does it have to do with this freshwater well in the sea? If you dig a well in the sea you expect to get saline water. Yet, the well provides drinkable water because of these possible scenarios:- the freshwater-sea water interface extends far into the sea even beneath the waves. Highly unlikely as the water table pressure would need to be immensely high on the land!
    – there is submarine discharge of groundwater from a confined aquifer beneath the sea at this place. The strata confining the aquifer prevents water from seeping out on the land side but there is a hidden interface on the sea side.This is possible.
    – maybe seawater has “transgressed” only on the surface and below the surface is stopped from infiltering by impervious formations.

    So this must be some kind of mix of these situations. The sea water here is pretty static – no waves in sight. Modeling coastal aquifers is a major headache. On Islands, the Fetter analytical solution applies better. I will not describe that here.

    Usually, salt water intrusion into coastal aquifers is due to:

    – lateral movement of salt water from the sea due to heavy water loss (withdrawals by humans) from the coastal aquifers
    – “Saline zones” deep in the interface move up to cause “upconing” near coastal pumping wells

    So is it possible? Yes. Fresh water is less denser than salt water and “floats” on salt water. This is important when you bore into the groundwater in islands. Rain water percolates into the ground and pushes the salt water beneath it. So you need to model the interface where freshwater and saltwater mix and take care not to disturb this by puncturing into sea water (when you drill).

    Here is a citation that explains why this well gives freshwater:

    “This natural movement of fresh water towards the sea prevents salt water from entering freshwater coastal aquifers (Barlow, 2003).”
    This natural movement of fresh water towards the sea prevents salt water from entering freshwater coastal aquifers (Barlow, 2003).”

    Similar examples exist at Cuba and the Gulf of Mexico.

    There are 22 wells in the Rameswaram temple – on a shallow coastal aquifer (unconfined) and close to the sea. The dissolved solids vary in each.

    So even if shooting the arrow part is not an acceptable theory, one must note the intelligence behind these wells. There was no technology and yet, this well was predicted to yield non-salty water.
