Konsep Kebebasan Menurut Jean-Jacques Rousseau dan Relevansinya Bagi Demokrasi Indonesia Saat Ini (Sebuah Kajian Filosofis - Kritis)
Authors: Piter Romanus , . Valentinus
Published: June 2021

The focus of this paper is a discussion of the concept of freedom according to Jean-Jacques Rousseau, one of the philosophers of the Enlightenment. Rousseau's concept of freedom is always interesting to discuss in the context of a country that applies democracy as its political system, one of which is Indonesia. In discussing the concept of Rousseau's freedom, it is relevant to Indonesia's current democracy, which is in a state of flawed democracy according to the research results of The Economist Intelligence Unit in 2020. The goal to be achieved is to find new ideas as a solution to improve the quality of Indonesian democracy for the better. The method used in this paper is a qualitative method in the form of literature review. The findings in this paper is that the quality of freedom in Indonesian democracy is still very low, especially in the fields of religion and education. The task to fight for this freedom is first of all in the hands of the leaders of the nation and state.

Authors: Gupta Parag , Singh Lal Pranay
Published: June 2021

Background: Malaria is common despite interventions directed to mosquito vector control and treatment
of symptomatic cases. In areas where malaria is hyperendemic, such as the study area, a high
percentage of the population may harbor the Plasmodium parasite in their blood. The current study was planned to assess the
prevalence of malaria and anemia. Methods: A total number of 150 cases were studied for a period of 2 years from Aug 2013 to
Sept 2015. Haematological parameters of 150 patients, including 100 malaria-infected and 50 non-malaria infected, who were
admitted at the rural tertiary care centre with history of fever were analysed. Patients who were diagnosed as malaria were
included in the study. Cases were selected from the the rural health centre of Index Medical College. Results: The median of Hb
in patients with falciparum malaria (11.5 g/dL) was signicantly lower than those with vivax malaria (11.9 g/dL) and nonmalaria (13.8 g/dL) groups (P value=<0.0001). Thirty Five (35%) of patients with falciparum malaria; Thirty Two (32%) of
patients with vivax malaria; and Thirteen (26%) of patients with non-malaria groups had anaemia. Conclusion: Malaria is
common in patients of anaemia. The prevalence of both are positively correlated and both are associated with increased

INTRODUCTION: The staff of the old age homes being the primary caregivers to the elderly, can ensure that the health
issues are addressed. Therefore, they need knowledge on aging, needs and care services for residents, and ways of
providing individualized care and support for senior citizens in old age homes.
METHODOLOGY: Four old age homes were selected; purposive sampling was used. 4 old age home founders and 20 old age home residents,
that ve from each old age home were formed samples. The representatives of old-age home managers and residents were interviewed. The
datasheet was prepared to collect information such as facilities, admission criteria, and services.
RESULTS: Among the manager, three males and one female respondent, and nine males and 12 females old age home residents. Old age homes
belongings to charitable homes and private homes. Majority of the old age homes doesn't have health professional. Descriptive analysis was used
to analyse the data.
CONCLUSION: The staff working in the old age homes requires training in psychosocial issues and interventions for the institutionalized
elderly. The training programme will improve the knowledge about needs and psychosocial interventions for old age home residents.
Furthermore, it would enable the staff to provide individualized psychosocial care and support for old age home residents, which are not present

CLPDI Algorithm in UWB Synchronization
Authors: Soderi Simone , Hämäläinen Matti , Iinatti Jari Iinatti
Published: June 2021

This paper studies code synchronization in time hopping (TH) ultra wideband
(UWB) systems. In TH UWB systems, narrow
pulses based on Gaussian pulse are positioned in
different locations in consecutive time frames.
The location of each frame is defined by a
spreading code. The receiver collects the energy
of the pulses using the same spreading code. To
be able to do that, it has to synchronize itself to
the incoming signal. Due to the large bandwidth
of the signal, several replicas of the signals arrive into the receiver. Thus, the energy of the
signal is spread in time domain causing extra
problems to the synchronization procedure. In
this paper, earlierly proposed method for direct
sequence spread spectrum system is applied for
time hopping system. The method is simulated in
a multipath environment. The performance
measure used is the mean acquisition time. Con-
stant false alarm rate criterion is used for the
threshold setting rule for comparator. The energies of the multipath components are combined
in the acquisition process. Therefore, diversity
combining is obtained in the acquisition process,
which also leads to performance improvement.
Hacia nuevos derechos humanos en la era de la neurociencia y la neurotecnología
Authors: Ienca Marcello , Andorno Roberto
Published: June 2021

Los rápidos avances en neurociencia y neurotecnología abren un conjunto de posibilidades sin precedentes en el acceso, colecta, diseminación y manipulación de datos del cerebro humano. Estos desarrollos plantean importantes desafíos a los derechos humanos que deben abordarse para evitar consecuencias no deseadas. Este trabajo evalúa las implicaciones de los diferentes usos de las neurotecnologías en relación a los derechos humanos y sugiere que el marco actual de derechos humanos puede no ser suficiente para responder a estos desafíos emergentes. Después de analizar la relación entre neurociencia y derechos humanos, identificamos cuatro nuevos derechos que pueden ser de gran relevancia en las próximas décadas: el derecho a la libertad cognitiva, el derecho a la privacidad mental, el derecho a la integridad mental y el derecho a la continuidad psicológica.

EFFECT OF SIGMA PHASE PRECIPITATION ON MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR AND PITTING CORROSION OF DUPLEX STAINLESS STEEL
Authors: Berguiga Talha , Boumerzoug Zakaria
Published: June 2021

The main purpose of this work is to investigate the pitting corrosion behavior of sigmatized duplex stainless steel (DSS) exposed to two different chloride environments: simulated seawater solution and produced water solution. Specimens taken from a commercial DSS (UNS 31803) have been subjected to aging treatments at 850°C for different holding times to achieve different amounts of sigma phase. Metallographic examinations combined with X-ray diffraction technique were employed to follow the microstructure evolution. The pitting potential of the aged samples were determined in simulated seawater solution and produced water solution. It was established that solution treated DSS shows a high pitting corrosion resistance in both test solutions, while serious deterioration of corrosion properties occurs in presence of sigma phase. It was concluded that both sigma phase amount and chloride concentration worsen the pitting potential, the higher sigma content, the lower pitting potential and the higher chloride concentration, the lower pitting potential. SEM observation showed that pitting nucleation occurs preferentially at sigma phase interfaces due to the development of Cr- and Mo-depleted regions around sigma phase. It was also confirmed that the hardness behavior is only affected for long term aged samples.

Published: June 2021

The adverse effects of the construction from the perspective of reducing greenhouse gas emissions are becoming increasingly important in terms of sustainable development and the growth of construction output. Construction actors involved in the process of creating buildings are responsible for the deterioration of the environmental situation. Flexible tools to motivate construction participants to actively and purposefully decarbonize construction and maintain the production and use of low-carbon technologies should be established. Multilevel institutional tools for regulating extended responsibility of construction participants through organizational and economic incentives for low-carbon design and construction and optimization of building design solutions are presented in the article. Recommendations are also provided to improve the environmental safety of construction, including the establishment of the of low-carbon certification institute for developers, based on a cost estimate of the carbon impact of buildings used in the development of compensatory and incentive measures. The proposed methodological aspects of rational low-carbon design and construction of buildings with minimal carbon footprint will allow to formulate the basic principles of functioning of the low-carbon certification institute of builders as a tool to improve their bid competitiveness.

The possibility of determining the prospects for the development of the natural framework using the documents of the master plans on the example of the hero city of Sevastopol is proposed. The published articles on the topic of research, as well as works in related fields on historical, military-political topics, tourism development, environmental safety, and others are analyzed. To determine the changes in the structure of the natural framework, we used a retrospective analysis of the master plans for the period from 1933 to the present. Systematized information about the main elements of the natural framework located on the territory of the city of Sevastopol, which include 14 specially protected natural areas of regional and local significance, including: 1 eco-park, 6 nature reserves and 7 natural monuments, their main characteristics and rating are indicated. In addition to these existing protected areas, a list of promising objects of regional significance is presented. Diagrams of the areas of functional zones, including landscaping zones, whose areas were compared and analyzed, were compiled. Conclusions are drawn on the work done in the article, as well as further recommendations for the development of the natural framework and prospects for further research are described.
Hydrocarbons and Ethers of Extractive Substances of Siberian Larch Needles
Authors:   Saint Petersburg State Forest Technical University, Mikson Darya S. , Roshchin Viktor I.
Published: June 2021

Siberian larch (Larix sibirica L.) is the main commercial species in Russia. Currently, larch woody greens are underutilized. They are considered a waste product from logging. This is due to the lack of knowledge on the composition of compounds and the variability of the raw material source itself as a result of the fall of the needles. The research purpose is to study the composition of hydrocarbons and esters from Siberian larch needles in summer and autumn collection from the Tomsk region. The shredded needles were extracted with propan-2-ol; then, after distillation of the solvent, substances soluble in petroleum ether (PE, 40–70 °С) were isolated. The latter were divided into free acids (31.5 % for green needles and 28.0 % for yellow needles) and neutral substances (59.8 and 48.1 %, respectively). Then, eutral substances were chromatographed on silica gel: hydrocarbons (2.43 and 3.02 %, hereinafter from neutral substances of green and yellow needles, respectively), esters (31.30 and 33.80 %) and triglycerides (11.70 % and 6.44 %). The ester and triglyceride fractions were exposed to alkaline hydrolysis and the acidic components of esters (9.12 and 24.80 %) and triacylglycerols (17.43 and 26.15 %) were produced. Fractions of unsaponifiable compounds, in addition to alcohols, contained unsaponifiables with unchanged Rf values on thin-layer chromatography (TLC). Fractions of unsaponifiables were chromatographed on silica gel, and then the isolated fractions were additionally chromatographed on silica gel with silver nitrate. The isolated compounds were identified by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In the acidic component of esters, the main components are linoleic and linolenic acids. Hydrocarbons are represented by sesquiterpenes in both collections of needles. A new aromatic hydrocarbon for coniferous plants, geranyl-p-cymene, has been identified. For the first time, polyprenols were isolated from Siberian larch greens, the structure of which differs from spruce and pine polyprenols by chain length according to NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry data. They contain from 14 to 20 isoprene links in the chain of molecules with predominance of prenol-17. The yield of polyprenols was 12.8–14.9 % of neutral substances of yellow and green needles, respectively. Tetracyclic triterpene alcohols and sterols were isolated from green needles. Triterpene alcohols were not found in yellow needles. For citation: Mikson D.S., Roshchin V.I. Hydrocarbons and Ethers of Extractive Substances of Siberian Larch Needles.

Authors:   Research Institute of Agricultural Problems of Khakassia, Gordeeva Galina N.
Published: June 2021

According to the International Agenda for Botanic Gardens in Conservation about 500 species of woody plants, which represent six regions of the world, are conserved in the collection of the Research Institute of Agricultural Problems of Khakassia. The arboretum is located in the dry steppe zone of the Republic of Khakassia. There are 44 species of trees, shrubs and lianas of different rarity. Many of them are beautifully flowering, and therefore can be used for landscaping. The aim of the work is summing up the introduction of rare and endangered plants for their further usage in the improvement of residential areas of the Khakasia steppe zone. The research objects are 21 species of rare plants of the arboretum of the Institute. The periods of phenological stages of species, their growth and development rhythm, winter hardiness, period and duration of flowering, and ways of reproduction were determined. As a result, an introduction point was given to each plant and its perspectivity was estimated. The average age of rare plants was 40.7 years. All studied plants are early growing (from April 10 to May 10). In new growing conditions 72 % of species pass through a full life cycle, 19 % flower, but do not bear fruit, 9 % do not flower. According to the flowering period, 53 % of rare shrubs are early flowering (May). The longest flowering period was found in 19 % of species. The main phenological stages of plants occur during the stable periods, the low level of standard deviation confirms it. Self-seeding is typical for 28 % of the studied species. In the arboretum conditions 42 % reproduce both by seeds and vegetatively; 33 % – vegetatively and 23 % – by seeds. The introduction point shows the degree of adaptation to the new environment. As a result, 10 species have 5 and 4 points (96 %), Menispermum dahuricum, which annually freezes to the soil level, has 3 points. Perspectivity of the studied plants was identified based on the analysis of their viability parameters: 4 % of species turned to be non-perspective while 20 % are less perspective. Long-term studies of the biological features of rare woody plants indicate that rather perspective (38 %) and perspective (38 %) of the plants can be used in the improvement of residential areas of Khakasia. New species are introduced into the production for single and group planting: Deutzia glabrata, Armeniaca mandshurica, Prinsepia sinensis, Spiraea trilobata, and Rosa spinosissima.
