Makna Sinkronik-Diakronik Pada Term Al-Qur’an dan al-Kitab Pendekatan Bahasa Syahrur
Authors: El-Karimah Mia Fitriah
Published: July 2023

Syahrur introduced the term tsabat an-nash wa taghayyur al-muhtawa, which means that the text of the Qur'an is fixed, but the meaning of the text has changed so that it can be interpreted dynamically according to situation and context. He disassembled from etymology to morphology which can be seen in the redefinition of Al-Qur'an which is considered synonymous. This study uses a qualitative method with synchronous and diachronic analysis. This research is a literature study with al-Kitab wal-Qur'an and Qira'ah Muashirah written by Syahrur as primary data. The findings show that first; Syahrur used linguistics developed by two classical Arabic figures; Ibn Jinni's synchronic theory and al-Jurjani's diachronic theory. Second; the method related to synchronic and diachronic analysis was not fully carried out. Third, Syahrur conducted more semantic studies with syntagmatic-paradigm analysis with the intratextuality technique which Syahrur called manhaj al-tartil so that definitions of the mushaf emerged with the term al-kitab, with the addition of lam ta'rif to become al-kitab. Its meaning refers to the entire set of themes revealed to Muhammad SAW, while the Qur'an is a theme. So that the Qur'an is not identical with the Bible.

نظراتٌ في بلاغة النَّص المناسبة بين خواتيم سورة يونس ومفتتح سورة هود في ضوء نظرية النظم
Authors: Shehata Mohamed
Published: July 2023

This study aims to use a theoretical framework, which is mixed between modern applied linguistics and the theory of Arabic syntax "an-nazm" of Aljurjani while analyzing some topic of inimitability "I'jaz". That theoretical framework uses the grammatical links while looking in modern items like text coherence, reference, anaphora, and referral. This mixture enables us to connect between applied linguistic items and Arabic rhetorics. At the same time, it enables us to look for the beauty of linguistic structure, and to en-wide the items delivered from the old theory of syntax "an-nazm" while using it in analyzing different text, especially Quran, to figure out its Inimitability which we can find, here, at the harmonised between the epilogues of Surat Yunus and the beginnings of Surat Hud.

Authors: Lotfy Nasser Nadia
Published: July 2023

The Holy Surah included dialectical methods, such as the argumentative strategy that achieves persuasion through linguistic mechanisms and the argumentative ladder, according to Oswald Decro's theory of linguistic arguments. The importance of this research is that it sheds light on the ability of the linguistic mechanisms in Surat Al-Rum to achieve the argumentative function and influence the recipient. The main question of the research is whether the linguistic and rhetorical mechanisms and the argumentative scale achieved the argumentative function and affected the recipient? The approach that the research follows is descriptive and analytical, as it follows the approach of the linguistic arguments’ theory of "Oswald Decro" and "Unscomber". The linguistic strategies in general, the argumentative ladder, and the argumentative links, have achieved an impact on the recipient, with the huge potential argumentative potentials that the linguistic and rhetorical structures bear in them. The power of linguistic, rhetorical and semantic casting in the surah also represented the power of the speaker, who is the Creator Almighty. The research is new in that it sheds light on the power of linguistic and rhetorical casting and the argumentative scale, which achieved strong argumentative energies that affect the recipient in temporal and spatial permanence.

Numerical Assessment of Pipe Pile Response under Seismic Excitation
Authors: Al-Jeznawi Duaa , Mohamed Jais ISMACAHYADI , S. Albusoda Bushra , Khalid Norazlan
Published: July 2023

The axial capacity and pile transference of loads under static loading have both been well reported, but further research is needed to understand the dynamic lateral responses. The pile load imposed during an earthquake may increase, but the soil’s ability to support it may fall as a side effect of the vibration leading to more settlement. The key objective of this work is to identify what led to the substantial lateral destruction of the piles during the seismic event due to the kinematic effects. These failures were related to discontinuities in the subsoil as a result of sudden changes in soil strength due to shaking. The kinematic stresses exerted in a single pipe pile constructed in two sand layers under two different situations (dry and saturated states) are investigated in this study using numerical modeling. The bending moments were higher in the saturated sand soil than in the dry one which may be attributed to liquefaction. Generally, the acceleration increased through the loose layer (from bottom to top), and then significantly settled within the dense layer. It could be shown that using this modeling, one can estimate how a pile foundation will behave under "kinematic" loading driven by earthquakes. Therefore, the design and installation of drilled aluminum or steel piles in sand soil could make use of these present observations.

Published: July 2023

Utilization of additives can be an effective way to improve the durability and performance of HMA, making them more resistant to Moisture and deformation. Plus, they can reduce the need for maintenance and repairs, saving you time and money in the long run. In this study,  CKD was used in place of limestone as a filler in the asphalt mixture in proportions of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%, and polymer SBS 4%by weight of asphalt. According to the findings, replacement-content CKD had the highest asphalt content. When the CKD is between 25% and 50%, Stability, Flow, and Indirect Tensile Strength are improved, while the density of the asphalt mixture decreases and the amount of air voids increases at higher ratios. While SBS leads to an increase in the hardness of the adhesives. As a consequence, the stability of the SBS-containing mixes resulted in higher values than the control and additive-containing mixtures (CKD), as well as a decrease in the number of air voids. According to the results, CKD should not constitute more than half of the filler weight in the asphalt mixture.

Authors: Anggraeni Desak Made
Published: July 2023

The impact of Covid-19 is being felt in all sectors of life, one of which is education. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the learning process changed from a face-to-face system to an online learning system. However, this learning system does not work effectively which has an impact on learning loss in children, especially for children in Ledongara. This impact was also felt by children in Ledongara - Southwest Sumba Regency - NTT. This condition is exacerbated by the location of the area which is above the hills and far from the crowds and access to electricity that has not been touched until the end of January 2022. The collaboration between STKIP Weetebula and UAJ Jakarta and BCA helped build a PLTS in Ledongara so that it can help residents in the area, especially children can facilitate learning activities in the evening. In the 2 years facing the Covid-19 pandemic, the learning process that has taken place in the Ledongara region has not been optimal. The transfer of knowledge that is expected to occur from the teacher to students cannot be carried out optimally so that it results in learning loss experienced by students. This learning loss condition is a condition that is not good because it will have an impact on decreasing the quality of education. The solution offered is the STKIP goes to village activity through tutoring activities, introduction to various science learning media, introduction to various simple practicum activities and Phet-assisted practicum related to science material. The training participants gave an extraordinary positive appreciation for the implementation of this activity because it can help improve students' understanding when they are still less effective during learning due to the pandemic and requested that this activity be carried out regularly

Mahalanobis D2 analysis was employed to study the genetic diversity of 50 sesame geno types at the Regional Research Station, Vridhachalam during kharif 1992. A wide genetic diversity was observed among the 50 genotypes tested. Based on D² analysis of Mahalanobis, the genotypes were grouped into four clusters. The clustering patten indicated that the geographic diversity need not necessarily be related to the genetic diversity. This could be evidenced from the study that genotypes from the same eco-geographic region did scatter in four clusters. Similarly, genotypes from different eco-geographic regions were identified in one cluster. The inter- cluster distance study revealed that cluster IV followed by cluster III were found to be highly divergent from the other two clusters. The genotypes in these two clusters may possibly be utilized for hybridization programme through suitable breeding programmes for the successful exploitation of heterosis in sesame.

A greenhouse experiment was conducted with 20 soils representing semiarid soils of Coimbatore district to peredict the most reliable soil test method for determining the available Zn status in the soil. Therewere four levels of Za (0, 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5 ppm) and cach treatment was replicated two times. Maize (Ganga 5) was used as the test crop and the crop was allowed to grow for seven weeks. The results showed that among the six extractants tried, EDTA + (NH4)2 CO3 and DTPA were found to be the most reliable soil test methods as compared to the other four methods employed. Between the two methods, DTPA soil test method could be recommended for determining the available Zn status in the soils of Coimbatore district as it had given higher relationship with the actual yield, Bray's per cent yield, Zn content in leaves and leaf sheath and stem

Field experiments were conducted during kharif and rabi seasons of 1991-92 to study the influence of nitrogen sources on the efficiency and yield of rice in Typic Ustropept wetland soil. The results revealed that the yield, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium uptake, response ratio, apparent nitrogen recovery, output efficiency and benefit cost ratio were higher under the use of neem cake coated urea and urea gypsum than the conventionally applied prilled urea on equal nitrogen basis of 125 kg N/ha. The combined application of prilled urea at 75 kg N/ha with green leaf manure at 50 kg N/ha proved to be the next best. Application of nitrogen at 175 kg N/ha was found to be necessary for getting higher grain yield in rice during both the crop seasons when the ordinary prilled urea was used.

Experiment was carried out to bring out the genotypic variations from a broad genetic base and to utilise the best attribute in achieving higher grain yields. The results indicated significant genotypic differences in yield attributes and yield. The association analysis showed a significant positive relationship of grain yield with productive tillers, filled grain number per panicle, 1000 grain weight and harvest index. Among the yield attributes productive tillers, filled grain number per panicle and harvest index contributed to a greater extent in achieving the productivity. This indicates, the selection of numerically high value for each yield attribute and incorporating in a single genotype may boost the grain yields significantly to a higher level. However, grain size is not a preferable character in consumer point of view. Therefore, selection of genotypes with large number of productive tillers and filled grain per panicle may be worthwhile.

Fifteen groundnut genotypes were evaluated for their stability under eight environments. The magnitude of genotype environment interaction was low under rainfed conditions compared to irrigated conditions. Significant positive genotypic correlations obtained in the locationwise and seasonwise analysis indicated that the genes acting under rainfed conditions are similar in the particular location or season. Negative correlation coefficients indicated that the set of genes that acted under one location in irrigated conditions were not similar to that acted under irrigated conditions at another location. To realise optimum yield potential in groundnut ideal genotypes are to be identified suited to different locations as well as to different seasons as the set of genes operating under those conditions appear to be similar.

A field experiment was conducted in the Viswavidyalaya Farm at Kalyani during the winter season of 1981-82 and 1982-83 to study the response of 20 (105) and HY3C varieties of pigeonpea to P2O5/ha and zinc (0, 10 and 20 kg ZnSO4/ha). Yield attributed and seed yield of pigeonpea varieties were significantly influenced by phosphorus and zinc. Application of 20 kg ZnSO4 produced significantly more height of the plant, number of pods per plant, length of the pod and yield of pigconpea. But the number of branches per plant, number of seeds per pod and 1,000 seed weight did not reach the level of significance. The response due to the application of phosphorus was quadratic in nature and optimum dose was 88.8 and 76.4 kg/ha for 20 (105) and HY3C respectively. Maximum benefit-cost ratio of 3.15 and 4.12 were obtained at 35 kg P20s/ha level for 20 (105) and HY3C varieties respectively. Variety 20 (105) yielded significantly higher over HY3C due to its higher seed number per pod and 1000 seed weight.

An experiment with M1 and M2 generation following treatment of one variety each of mustard (Brassica juncea) and rapeseed (Brassica campestris var. toria) with three different doses of Ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) and Diethyl sulphate (DES) revealed that the mustard variety is less sensitive than rapeseed variety for EMS whereas the reverse trend was noticed for DES in respect of mutagen induced stress response. The EMS and DES mutagenesis may be recommended for improvement of the rapeseed and mustard varieties respectively. The analysis of stress response is considered helpful in predicting changes in mean and variability of some traits like siliqua per plant and plant height in favourable direction

Correlation of characters contributing to alcohol yield in sorghum was studied using hybrids obtained from a partial diallel cross of six sweet sorghum and one grain sorghum types. The interrelationship among the characters at genotypic level indicated that alcohol yield had significant positive correlation with total sugar, sucrose per cent, brix, juice yield, cane yield and girth of the stem. Low reducing sugar content is also essential for high alcohol extraction. Selection for high total sugars, sucrose content and brix will lead to high alcohol production.
