Authors: Permatasari Sintia Dwi , Fatica Dian , Maharani Krisnina
Published: October 2023

Transaksi yang umumnya dilakukan dengan pertemuan antara produsen dan konsumen sekarang harus dilakukan secara online atau daring dengan berbagai sistem pembayaran karena adanya pandemi Covid-19. Hal ini lah yang membuat Cashless Society semakin berkembang dan banyak digunakan di masyarakat Indonesia. Saat ini banyak kalangan yang telah melakukan pembayaran untuk segala produk atau jasa dengan uang digital. Keberadaan uang digital ini mempermudah para pengguna karena lebih praktis ketika digunakan jika dibandingkan dengan uang tunai. Kemudahan inilah yang menjadi salah satu alasan sebagian besar masyarakat berpindah menggunakan transaksi non-tunai bahkan ketika pandemi telah usai seperti saat ini. Dengan adanya fenomena tersebut penelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk menguji dan menganalisis pengaruh Faktor Psikologi, Faktor Pribadi, dan konsep 6P dalam pemasaran yang meliputi Product, Price, Promotion, People, Process, serta Physical Evidence terhadap pemulihan ekonomi pasca pandemi yang dimediasi oleh Perkembangan Cashless Society. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan menggunakan metode survei dari kuisioner yang dibagikan kepada 100 responden dengan skala Likert. Selain itu, pada penelitian ini analisis dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode IPA (Importance Performance Analysis) dan metode SEM (Structural Equation Model) dengan analisis PLS (Partial Least Square) menggunakan bantuan komputer paket WarpPLS. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Faktor Pribadi, Product, Price, Promotion, dan Physical Evidence berpengaruh signifikan terhadap perkembangan Cashless Society. Begitu pula dengan Perkembangan Cashless Society berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Pemulihan Ekonomi Pasca Pandemi.Sedangkan variabel Faktor Psikologi, People, Process tidak berpengaruh secara signifikan.

Published: October 2023

Perindustrian di Indonesia kini telah berkembang pesat, terlebih lagi pada industri yang dimiliki oleh pihak-pihak swasta. Salah satu industri yang berhasil tumbuh dan mempertahankan kejayaannya ialah PT. Gudang Garam Tbk., di mana industri ini berfokus pada produk hasil tembakau, yaitu rokok. Kejayaan yang diraih tentu tak lepas dari peran para konsumen yang senantiasa setia menggunakan produknya secara berkala. Kondisi ini merupakan kesempatan baik untuk para investor yang ingin berkecimpung di dalamnya. Namun, sebelum turut serta, alangkah lebih baiknya jika seorang investor melakukan analisis terlebih dahulu agar mencegah mengalami kerugian di kemudian hari. Dalam peramalan harga saham, salah satu analisis yang dapat digunakan ialah menggunakan metode Fuzzy Time Series (FTS), baik Tipe 1 maupun 2. Metode ini memiliki kelebihan di mana tidak diperlukannya asumsi-asumsi dan syarat pola tertentu sehingga fleksibel digunakan pada data apapun. Meskipun demikian, penelitian ini mencoba bereksplorasi menggunakan dua cara yang berbeda, yakni dengan dan tanpa proses differencing, mengingat data berpola tren. Analisis ini menggunakan enam macam percobaan, yakni dengan dan tanpa proses differencing, di mana masing-masing teknik mencoba tiga interval yang berbeda. Hasil yang didapatkan adalah analisis dengan FTS Tipe 2 mendominasi dalam memberikan hasil yang lebih baik jika dibandingkan dengan FTS Tipe 1. Selain itu, meskipun metode FTS tidak memiliki syarat asumsi dan pola tertentu, tetapi pada analisis harga saham PT. Gudang Garam Tbk. tahun 2021 ini memberikan hasil bahwa perhitungan dengan proses differencing memberikan nilai eror RMSE yang cenderung lebih kecil.

The Indirect Impact of Educational Attainment as a Distal Resource for Older Adults on Loneliness, Social Isolation, Psychological Resilience, and Technology Use During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Cross-Sectional Quantitative Study
Authors: Balki Eric , Hayes Niall , Holland Carol
Published: October 2023

Background

During the COVID-19 pandemic, government-mandated social distancing prevented the spread of the disease but potentially exacerbated social isolation and loneliness for older people, especially those already vulnerable to isolation. Older adults may have been able to draw from their personal resources such as psychological resilience (PR) and technology use (TU) to combat such effects. Educational attainment (EA) or early-life EA may potentially shape later-life personal resources and their impact on the effects of the pandemic lockdown on outcomes such as loneliness. The developmental adaptation model allows for the supposition that social isolation, TU, and PR may be affected by early EA in older adults.

Objective

This study examined the indirect impact of EA on pandemic-linked loneliness in a sample of older adults. The developmental adaptation model was used as the conceptual framework to view EA as a distal influence on loneliness, social isolation, PR, and TU. We hypothesized that EA would predict TU and PR and have a moderating impact on social isolation and loneliness. We also hypothesized that PR and TU would mediate the effect of EA on loneliness.

Methods

This was a cross-sectional observational study, in which data were gathered from 92 older adults aged ≥65 years in the United Kingdom from March 2020 to June 2021, when the country was under various pandemic-linked social mobility restrictions. The data captured demographic information including age, gender, ethnicity, and the highest degree of education achieved. The University of California Los Angeles Loneliness Scale, Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale, Lubben Social Network Index, and Technology Experience Questionnaire were used as standardized measures. Pearson correlation, moderation, and mediation regression analyses were conducted to investigate the hypotheses.

Results

We found a higher prevalence of loneliness in older adults than in prepandemic norms. EA was correlated with greater TU and PR and moderated the impact of social isolation on loneliness. PR mediated and TU partially mediated the relationship between EA and loneliness.

Conclusions

Early-life EA was confirmed as a distal resource for older adults and played an indirect role in affecting loneliness levels during the pandemic. It has an impact on present-day personal resources, such as PR and TU, which affect loneliness and also moderate the impact of social isolation on loneliness. Policymakers should be aware that older adults with low levels of EA may be more vulnerable to the harmful impacts of loneliness when isolated by choice.
Numerical Solution of a Two-Dimensional Problem of Determining the Propagation Velocity of Seismic Waves in Inhomogeneous Medium of Memory Type
Authors: Tomaev Marat , Totieva Zhanna
Published: October 2023

The numerical method for two-dimensional inverse dynamic seismic problem for a viscoelastic isotropic medium is presented. The system of differential equations of elasticity for isotropic medium of memory type is considered as a mathematical model. The unknown values are the displacement, the memory function of the medium (the kernel of the integral term) and the propagation velocity of elastic waves in a weakly horizontally inhomogeneous medium. Additional information for the inverse problem is the response displacement measured on the surface. The method is based on reducing the inverse problem to a system of Volterra-type integral equations and their sequential numerical implementation. The results of the study are analyzed and compared with the analytical solution. It is shown that the results are in satisfactory agreement.

Published: October 2023

A field experiment was carried out in the Western Terai of Nepal, Buddhabhumi municipality of Kapilvastu district to screen out the best-performing cucumber variety among the five most cultivated exotic varieties; LHC-1395, LHC-Maria, Dynasty, NS-408, and Rehmat-1080 during February to July of 2019. The package of cultivation practiced in this study replicates that of the local farmers. The experimental setup was laid on Randomized Complete Block Design having five replications and five treatments in an area of the 750-meter square. The crop geometry was maintained at 25 cm×15 cm and the size of each plot was 1.4 m2. Data was collected on the morphological and yield parameters such as plant height/vine length, number of leaves, number of branches, days to flowering and fruit development, number of fruits, fruit weight, and fruit yield per plant. The study revealed that the performance of Dynasty was best in terms of plant height with an average increase in height of 23.9 cm per week. LHC-1395 was demonstrated to be the variety with the highest increase in leaf number with an average of 2.08 leaves per week. Similarly, the highest number of branches was found to develop in NS-408 (3.2), the highest number of fruits per plant in LHC-1395 (11.36), the highest single fruit weight in LHC-Maria (208.44 grams), and the highest fruit yield per plant in LHC-1395 (2137.9 grams). Thus, the study concluded that LHC-1395 is a high-yielding variety suited for the study area.

Abstract: A technological replacement for traditional convex mirrors at blind curves and T-junctions is presented in the abstract of this research article. The suggested system makes use of ultrasonic proximity sensors to see oncoming cars and sends timely notifications to drivers on both sides of the turn. The technology also computes and shows the oncoming vehicle's speed. A typical signal system or direct roadside projection of the alerts are both options provided by the system. This approach facilitates safer navigation at blind bends and T-junctions by using proximity sensors to measure vehicle speed and improve driver awareness. Our method improves accuracy, range, and reliability in vehicle detection and alerting by overcoming the limitations of convex mirrors. This technology improves safer driving by enhancing driver awareness and reducing accidents.

Published: October 2023

This study aimed to: (i) Translate, adapt, and evaluate the linguistic and semantic properties of the Psychologist and Counsellor Self-Efficacy Scale (PCES) for use among psychology students and psychologists in Brazil; (ii) Assess the psychometric attributes of the adapted PCES, including its construct validity and other related psychometric properties. A total of 2,139 participants, comprising psychologists and psychology students (Mage = 25.36 years; SD = 9.46), partook in this study. The PCES exhibited commendable fit indices (CFI = .990; TLI = .989; SMR = .043), and multigroup confirmatory factor analysis revealed a consistent level of invariance between students and practicing psychologists, as well as between male and female participants. Network analysis offered significant insights into the distribution of factors, while the convergent validity of PCES was corroborated by its correlations with the subscales of the General Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale (GPSS). These findings unequivocally affirm the reliability and suitability of PCES as an assessment instrument for both psychologists and psychology students in the Brazilian context.

A trilha dos afetos vem sendo perseguida há alguns anos, em especial após a Virada Afetiva, por pesquisadores interessados em não apenas humanizar o fazer científico, mas, sobretudo, em enriquecer as dimensões próprias do conhecimento. Nesta obra não é diferente. voltamos a explorar, de forma interdisciplinar, a presença dos afetos e das afetações nas práticas acadêmicas. Mais do que teorizar ou apresentar experiências, o objetivo é trazer aportes plurais, oriundos de campos distintos de conhecimento, sobre como pode ser humanizada e diversa a universidade. A obra será constituída por percursos atravessados pelos afetos – afetividades e afetações – mesmo que eventualmente não possuam originalmente este nome nas áreas de origem e/ou projetos de pesquisa, ensino e extensão dos autores. Nossa proposta é reunir um conjunto de textos, produzidos por pesquisadores cuja experiência é reconhecida nesta área de pesquisa, assim como jovens pesquisadores, recém-doutores e mestres, que têm explorado a temática em áreas distintas. Que tal costurar conosco possibilidades a partir de conceitos, noções e ideias que possam convergir para territórios tão próximos quanto distantes, tão comuns quanto diversos?: o lugar de uma universidade tecida com fios diferentes, assentada sobre concepções distintas e viabilizada por várias práticas dessemelhantes, muitas das quais permeadas pelos afetos mesmo quando não nos damos conta disso ou não nos referenciamos em aportes teóricos que assim nomeiam estes processos de ensino, pesquisa e extensão? Desafiados pelos organizadores a tecer ideias, percursos, concepções, práticas pedagógicas e de pesquisa, os autores se propõem a refletir sobre quem são e de que maneira são afetados e lidam com o afeto no seu cotidiano acadêmico.

Extraglycemic effects of sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors with a systemic approach, from possibilities to certainty
Authors: Omari Mohammad Belal
Published: October 2023

Sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors (SGLT2 inhibitors) are novel
drugs in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus that prevent the
absorption of glucose in the proximal tubules of the kidney and lower
the blood glucose level. In addition to treating diabetes type 2, it
influences all human systems. The aim of this study is to evaluate the
effects of this drug (either beneficial or adverse) on all human
systems, and based on that, a general opinion regarding the preference
and safety of using this drug in diabetic patients with comorbidities,
So far, no study has been conducted to evaluate the effects of this drug
on all human systems. Its beneficial effects on improving cardiovascular
disease risk factors and reducing adverse events caused by
cardiovascular and renal diseases have proven in most large clinical
studies that these effects are almost certain. It also has beneficial
effects on other human systems such as the respiratory system, the
gastrointestinal system, the circulatory system, and the nervous system;
more of them are at the level of clinical and pre-clinical trials but
have not been proven in large clinical trials or meta-analyses, so the
term possible is used. In this review, the beneficial effects of this
drug and its mechanism on every system of humans have been studied, and
finally, its adverse effects have also been discussed. The key impact of
this study is to attract the attention of large clinical studies based
on an overview of all possible effects for the determination of
certainty.

Published: October 2023

Cognitive and emotional dysfunction is a major complication in the later
stages of Parkinson’s disease (PD). we planned to measure brain regional
homogeneity (ReHo) by comparison with normal controls. Peak points in
the regions of difference were then selected as seed ROIs, and
whole-brain network abnormalities due to differences in local functional
connectivity in PD patients were analyzed using granger causality
analysis (GCA) to characterize the functional connectivity in PD
patients without dementia symptoms to identify potential factors
affecting cognition and mood in the disease. And voxel-based morphometry
(VBM) was used to compare brain volumes in these abnormal functional
areas and analyzed the correlation between functional and volumetric
signals.The final results showed significant increase of regional
functional connectivity in the orbit of the left inferior frontal gyrus,
the orbit of the middle frontal gyrus, and the triangle of the left
inferior frontal gyrus; the left precuneus, cuneus, superior occipital
gyrus, and bilateral part of pons showed regional functional
connectivity decreased. In the GCA, PD patients showed elevated
functional connectivity from the bilateral precuneus to the left
orbitofrontal lobe and reduced functional connectivity from the left
cuneus to the left temporal pole. Furthermore, there were no significant
differences and correlations between volumetric comparisons, and between
functional and volumetric signals. Thus, the precuneus/cuneus may be an
important integrative brain region for cognitive and emotional
coordination and is an important factor in causing cognitive impairment
and depression in PD patients.

Published: October 2023

DC-DC converters are key topologies in many industries such as renewable
energy, transportations, utility, and perform an increasingly important
role in the power electronics. The research of the modulation strategies
with efficiency improvement is therefore critical for the DC-DC
converters. As one of the most classic DC-DC converters, the dual active
bridge (DAB) converter has attracted more and more attention in the
utilization of the isolated DC-DC power conversion systems, due to its
good performance. Over the past decade, many advanced techniques have
been used to promote the efficiency for the DAB converter. Aiming to
provide comprehensive analysis of different optimizing techniques for
the DC-DC converters, this paper gives an overview of the efficiency
optimization modulation strategies with a case study on the DAB
converter. Firstly, typical phase-shift modulation methods and variable
frequency modulation methods for the DAB converter are analyzed. After
that, the application of three categories of optimization techniques are
described, which including numerical optimization methods, metaheuristic
methods and reinforcement learning (RL) methods. On this basis, this
paper provides corresponding suggestions for further improving the
operation efficiency of the DAB converters.

We conducted a multicentre hospital-based test-negative case–control
study to measure vaccine effectiveness (VE) against PCR-confirmed
influenza in adult patients with severe acute respiratory infection
(SARI) during the 2022/23 influenza season in Europe. Among 5547 SARI
patients ≥18 years, 2963 (53%) were vaccinated against influenza.
Overall VE against influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 was 11% (95%CI: -23–36);
20% (95%CI: -4–39) against A(H3N2) and 56% (95%CI: 22–75) against
B. During the 2022/23 season, while VE against hospitalisation with
influenza B was >55%, it was ≤20% for influenza A
subtypes. While influenza vaccination should be a priority for the
upcoming season, improved vaccines against influenza are needed.

Authors: Campos Polo Fernando , Guarnizo Carballo Nicolás
Published: October 2023

Los discursos del cuerpo en el campo de la educación física es una obra cautivadora que explora los significados inherentes a la práctica discursiva del cuerpo en el marco de la estructura curricular del programa de formación de maestros en Educación Física de la mencionada universidad. Este análisis se realiza desde una perspectiva arqueológica-genealógica, proporcionando una visión novedosa y crítica sobre la forma en que se aborda la corporeidad en este contexto. Desde una perspectiva arqueológica, el libro se adentra en un análisis minucioso de los "archivos" o materiales documentales del plan de estudio, las agendas investigativas de los docentes del programa, la productividad académica (libros, artículos, registros), así como la formación avanzada o posgradual de los docentes. Este acercamiento permite rastrear los vestigios de las prácticas discursivas acerca del cuerpo, estableciendo un diálogo entre pasado y presente. Por otro lado, el análisis genealógico examina las condiciones que permitieron que los discursos acerca del cuerpo se institucionalizaran desde 1998 y se convirtieran en prácticas legitimadas en la formación de maestros. Esta obra, entonces, ilumina cómo estos discursos han influido y siguen moldeando la formación de los maestros en Educación Física en la Universidad de los Llanos.
A framework for fake news detection based on the wisdom of crowds and the ensemble learning model
Authors: Truong Hai , Tran Van
Published: October 2023

Nowadays, the rapid development of social networks has led to the proliferation of social news. However, the spreading of fake news is a critical issue. Fake news is news written to intentionally misinform or deceive readers. News on social networks is short and lacks context. This makes it difficult for detecting fake news based on shared content. In this paper, we propose an ensemble classification model to detect fake news based on exploiting the wisdom of crowds. The social interactions and the user?s credibility are mined to automatically detect fake news on Twitter without considering news content. The proposed method extracts the features from a Twitter dataset and then a voting ensemble classifier comprising three classifiers namely, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naive Bayes, and Softmax is used to classify news into two categories which are fake and real news. The experiments on real datasets achieved the highest F1 score of 78.8% which was better than the baseline by 6.8%. The proposed method significantly improved the accuracy of fake news detection in comparison to other methods.

Published: October 2023

Reinforced concrete water tank plays a important role in providing sustainable water supply to the our community. We use water supply for our daily basic needs, industrial needs, agriculture, firefighting purposes etc. Due to its importance factor, water tank’s structural integrity was important during an critical event of time. Seismic design of reinforced concrete water tanks is a critical aspect of ensuring the safety and functionality of these structures during seismic activities. The importance of seismic design for reinforced concrete water tanks extends beyond just safeguarding the tanks themselves. These tanks often provide a critical water supply during post-earthquake recovery and emergency response operations. Therefore, ensuring their structural integrity helps to maintain an essential resource for drinking, sanitation, and firefighting purposes when it is most needed. Earthquake creates large number of lateral forces. The amount of damage which exerts on the building depends on both the seismic activity and the building’s property. Water tanks has a huge amount of mass accumulated on the single point at a certain height which makes them vulnerable to some kinds on critical events. Capacity based design provided to be useful for designing a building for withstanding earthquake. But we need to know how to be building reacts to a certain event before we design the water tank according to it. Performance-based design philosophy plays a vital role in predicting the performance level associated with several levels of hazardous earthquake events. For this purpose, the building needs to be designed beyond the elastic limit of the member. The analysis procedure was broadly classified into linear and nonlinear methods of analysis, in which linear is only used in case the building won’t reach the collapse load. But during an earthquake, the structural loading will reach the collapse load, and the material stresses will be above yield stresses. So the material and geometrical properties of the building need to be considered heterogeneous and non-linear. It is focused on behavior of RC water tank under near fault excitation condition. Two water tank model was used for this thesis where one can hold up to 500m3 of water and other is up to 1370m3 of water. The finite element modelling and numerical analysis is done using ABAQUS software.

Remote Sensing Application for Tall Oil Palm Harvester
Authors: Haji Razali Mohd Hudzari
Published: October 2023

Oil palm is the primary source of economic gain and the community's primary need for palm oil and other daily necessities. In order to maximise the yield and benefits of oil palm, it is very difficult to do so with ordinary labour, and even if it is possible, it takes a long time to produce. Therefore, by adopting new technology, it is possible to overcome the challenges posed by tall oil palm harvesting. The application of remote sensing on tall oil palms will facilitate the harvesting procedure. With advancements in technology, such as remote sensing, it will be possible to achieve better results in less time and with fewer people. This pole has been equipped with multiple functionalities, such as a camera, to facilitate harvesting. This is because the height of the oil palm prevents workers from seeing the condition of the fruit and fronds that will be dropped. This paper also explains the use of remote sensing and its applications to the monitoring of oil palm plantations.
