Published: February 2025

Stunting poses a significant threat to the future Indonesia. The target of a 14% reduction in stunting has not yet been achieved. However, the 2022 Indonesian Nutrition Status Survey (SSGI) highlights the need for local food ingredients in preparing nutrition for stunting prevention. Utilizing locally available food sources serves as an alternative solution to ensure that children's nutritional needs are met easily and affordably. Education incorporating local wisdom is crucial for stunting prevention. To evaluate the effectiveness of education using the e-Nutrilla model as a method to improve children’s growth status, maternal feeding behavior, and maternal self-efficacy in providing complementary feeding (MPASI). The research design used was a one-group pretest-posttest without control. The population consisted of all mothers with children aged 12–59 months, with a sample size of 36 mothers. The statistical test applied was the Wilcoxon test. All respondents experienced an improvement in maternal feeding behavior categories from pre-test to post-test, with a Mean Rank of 18.50. The mean difference in maternal self-efficacy before and after education was 0.5, with an Asymp Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.004. Before the intervention, 6 children (16.7%) showed no growth improvement, which decreased to 3 children (8.3%) after the intervention, with an Asymp Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.257. The e-Nutrilla education model has a positive effect on maternal feeding behavior and maternal self-efficacy but does not significantly impact children’s growth status.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is often accompanied by sleep disturbances that can worsen glycemic control and increase the risk of complications. The combination of lavender aromatherapy and sleep hygiene is a non-pharmacological intervention that can potentially improve sleep quality in T2DM patients. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of lavender aromatherapy and sleep hygiene in improving sleep quality in T2DM patients. The study used a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test approach. The sample consisted of 15 inpatients with T2DM at PKU Muhammadiyah Gamping Hospital, who were selected using an accidental sampling method. Interventions included lavender aromatherapy inhalation and sleep hygiene implementation, including ablution, prayer, sleeping position, and lighting. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests to see changes in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores before and after the intervention. The mean PSQI score of the patients decreased significantly from 8.67 before the intervention to 5.40 after the intervention (p=0.001), indicating a significant improvement in sleep quality. The combination of lavender aromatherapy and sleep hygiene effectively improves sleep quality in T2DM patients. This intervention can be adopted in nursing practice to manage sleep disorders holistically.

marks a significant breakthrough in spatial data processing, with profound implications for urban
planning and architectural design project management. Exploring the synergistic potential of
marrying LoRa’s efficient, long-range communication capabilities with the sophisticated data
processing and generative prowess of GANs, the study developed a specialized LoRa model. This
model was meticulously trained using a diverse dataset comprising 1,100 instances across
various urban and architectural layouts, facilitating the generation of detailed and dynamic 2D
site plans. Performance evaluation of the model across multiple epochs revealed a decrease in
loss from an initial 0.11 to 0.0577, illustrating a robust learning trajectory and increased accuracy
over time. Such progression highlights the model’s enhanced capability to produce progressively
sophisticated urban designs, pivotal for effective project management in urban development.
Significantly, the application of LoRa and GANs boosts the accuracy and detail of spatial
representations, thereby improving decision-making in real-time urban planning applications.
Most crucially, the integration of these technologies fosters a new paradigm in urban planning
characterized by heightened efficiency, scalability, and sustainability. These advancements equip

Today’s challenges determine the need to improve the biometric authentication of personnel of
critical infrastructure facilities. Common means of biometric authentication, which are usually
based on the use of neural network technologies for facial image analysis, need improvement in
the direction of adaptation to the conditions of recognition during the performance by personnel
of their functional duties, which are characterized by the influence of interference during video
recording and an increase in the probability attacks using dummies. Another area of
improvement is determined by the availability of video recording tools, which provide the ability
to recognize a person by the iris of the eye and the ability to recognize emotions. It is shown that
the first stage of improvement of neural network means of biometric authentication is the
development of a formalized description of the recognition process, which takes into account
promising areas of improvement. A conceptual model containing a formalized description and
criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of the recognition process is proposed. At the same time,
for the first time, an approach to determining the parameters of obstacles was proposed, which
involves comparing the parameters of obstacles with the location and number of key and control
faces that they overlap. Recognition of attacks is proposed to be implemented based on the
analysis of the dynamics of basic emotions, the dynamics of eye movement parameters and the
environment. The results of this study are important in the context of the development of
effective biometric authentication tools, as they provide a formalized description of the
requirements for the functional capabilities of the main components of the process of recognizing
the identity and emotions of personnel of critical infrastructure facilities.
Construction of Machines Capable of Extracting Energy from the Forces of Nature with Over-unity Efficiencies is Made Possible
Authors: Ghoshal Suniti Kumar
Published: February 2025

The possibility of constructing machines capable of extracting energy from the forces of nature with N > 1 efficiencies by making use of novel energy-harvesting ideas has been brought to light. The electrostatic, magnetic and electromagnetic forces have been identified as the promising ones to meet this objective. The working of one of such machines is based on the simple idea of allowing both the charging and discharging currents of a capacitor to pass through a DC motor uni-directionally repetitively. The second kind of machine, capable of extracting energy from magnetic forces, makes use of both attractive and repulsive forces between pole pieces of permanent and electromagnets. This machine is capable of generating energy with N > 1 efficiencies as it effectively extracts energy from both the attractive and repulsive magnetic forces. The machines of the third kind take advantage of Barlow’s motor, which, when connected in series with a DC motor and a DC current is passed through them the Barlow’s motor generates energy without the consumption of any electrical power. The possible ways of improving the efficiency of the machines are discussed.

Recent advancements in neuroimaging techniques have facilitated the identification of numerous structural brain alterations associated with schizophrenia, potentially serving as valuable biomarkers. This study aimed to explore the volumetric changes in the pineal gland correlated with schizophrenia symptoms, employing standard brain segmentation methodologies. The study encompassed 135 participants, comprising 82 controls and 53 patients, all of whom provided voluntary consent. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain was conducted using the magnetization prepared rapid acquisition protocol, and the acquired images were processed through BrainSuite software. Statistical analysis was done to determine the significance of volumetric differences in the pineal gland between patients and controls. In addition, it assessed any correlations with demographic variables, such as age and sex. The control group’s mean age was 29.28 ± 6.03, while the patient group was 31.32 ± 6.44. No significant differences were observed between the groups in terms of sex or age distribution, with P = 0.583 and 0.064, respectively. The average pineal gland volume in patients with schizophrenia was 48.82 ± 20.39 cm3, markedly lower than the 64.23 ± 26.51 cm3 observed in controls. The findings indicate that individuals with schizophrenia possess smaller pineal glands compared to the general population. It is concluded that MRI is a viable tool for assessing structural brain changes linked to schizophrenia, and the pineal gland may play a contributory role in the disease’s pathogenesis.

Maintenance is one of the key factors that keeps buildings safe and functional. However, there has been extensive research recently about the poor condition of public school facilities and the struggle to keep up with the demands of maintaining their timeworn school infrastructure. Perceived risk affects maintenance work decisions. This encompasses the perspectives of various stakeholders, such as the building's owner, facility managers, maintenance staff, and occupants, regarding the potential and impact of adverse occurrences resulting from maintenance practices. The problem addressed in this research is the absence of a comprehensive Perceive Risk-Based Maintenance Management (PRBMM) model for public schools. This research aims to identify the determinants of perceived
risk in risk-based maintenance management. Numerous constructs from previous studies were used to create questionnaires. There were a total of 137 web-based self-administrative questionnaires that were distributed to technical experts who were in charge of the building maintenance of the public schools. The 137 sets were answered and completed. The data is then analysed using SPSS Statistics, Version 29. The findings suggest that the conceptual framework for this research consists of four determinant
factors as independent variables, such as performance risk, financial risk safety risk, and operational risk. Meanwhile, the responses perceive risk in risk-based maintenance management as a dependent variable.

The field of Facilities Management and Maintenance (FMM) in Malaysia has undergone substantial evolution and transformation. Despite abundant research on FMM practices, conducting a systematic review on this issue has proven challenging due to the lack of review procedures. This poses
a significant barrier for researchers to replicate or interpret the findings. Hence, this research aims to conduct a systematic literature review of the current FMM practices in Malaysia. The review processes comprised five key methodological steps, namely review, formulation of research questions, systematic searching strategies based on identification, screening, and eligibility on various established databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. This is then followed by quality appraisal, as well as data extraction and analysis. Four primary themes were identified based on the thematic analyses: (1) FMM evolution; (2) the current state of FMM; (3) technology; and (4) policy and regulation. These four themes were then divided into nine sub-themes. Findings show that despite the progress, FMM still faces challenges, particularly in standardizing the maintenance process, which impacts on overall service quality.

Assessment of water needs of Catalpa bignonioides under subsurface irrigation in row plantings
Authors: Łangowski Ariel
Published: February 2025

The research was based on a field experiment on light soil. The sampling used for row plantings was Catalpa bignonioides. The reason for this choice was the species recommended for row plantings due to its attractive appearance, long flowering and relatively good resistance to changing climatic conditions. The research aimed to determine water needs: field water consumption of C. bignonioides in row plantings on light soil under subsurface drip irrigation conditions. Water needs identified with field water consumption of C. bignonioides in row plantings on light soil under optimal soil moisture conditions during the growing season were variable. They depended on the variants of the experiment and the course of precipitation and thermal conditions in all growing seasons. The values of total water consumption of C. bignonioides in the growing seasons ranged from 241.3 (2019) to 428.7 mm (2022) for the W1 variant (irrigation performed when soil moisture dropped to –40 kPa). In the W2 variant objects (irrigation performed when soil moisture dropped to –20 kPa), the values of seasonal water consumption were higher and ranged from 266.5 (2019) to 458.8 mm (2022). Daily water consumption increased with the growth of C. bignonioides, regardless of the experimental variant. During each year of the experiment, higher values of daily water consumption were characteristic of the W2 variant. Cultivating C. bignonioides, growing on light soils, enables implementing subsurface drip irrigation technology, which, while ensuring optimal soil moisture conditions, will allow for the undisturbed growth and development of this species in row plantings.
Wachstumsschwäche überwinden: Nicht mehr Schulden, sondern mehr Produktivitätswachstum ist der Schlüssel
Authors: Holtemöller Oliver
Published: February 2025

Short- and medium-term growth perspectives in Germany are bleak. This is putting the public budget under stress. A reform of the debt brake could increase public financial leeway, but would not in itself solve the fundamental economic problems. Even with a higher permissible level of government debt, pension system expenditure will rise sharply, and real shortages, for example in the labour market, cannot be resolved in the short term with more debt either. The new federal government should therefore focus more on promoting productivity. A change in policy towards more market-based solutions and fewer national unilateral actions, for example, could unlock potential in the energy transition.
Peran Filantropi Islam Wakaf dalam Kebencanaan

Published: February 2025

This study explores the opportunities and obstacles in utilizing waqf as a component of alternative funding during the disaster cycle. Indonesia faces a significant risk of natural disasters; nonetheless, funding for prevention, readiness, and rebuilding remains insufficient. Conversely, as the nation with the highest Muslim population globally, the significance of Islamic philanthropy, specifically the potential of waqf in Indonesia, is substantial, integrating waqf into disaster management if executed correctly and backed by a sufficient ecosystem, including effective regulations and supportive administration. Indonesia is a nation that frequently faces natural disasters because of its geographically susceptible position, including the equatorial line, the convergence of tectonic plates, and the Circum-Pacific and Circum-Mediterranean zones. Catastrophes result in considerable economic damage, resulting in heightened poverty levels. Waqf can serve as a pertinent funding source for disaster management since its main aim is to use waqf assets based on their purposes, allowing it to effectively act as a tool for disaster prevention and for rebuilding after disasters. Through the use of waqf resources, the government, along with waqf management organizations, can oversee waqf funds as disaster relief funds to assist in managing disasters in Indonesia. The prospect for waqf in Indonesia is shown to be substantial, as illustrated by the waqf land in 2003, which spanned 154 hectares and had an estimated value of IDR 590 trillion. As of March 2024, waqf land is distributed across 440,512 sites, comprising 72% mosques and prayer areas, 14.5% madrasas, 4.5% burial grounds, and 9% various others.

Composition of judges: problems of definition, classification and legal consolidation
Authors: Kartsevskaya Ol'ga Aleksandrovna
Published: February 2025

The object of this study is a set of legal relations arising in the organization of judicial structures and composition of courts, based on the principles of singleness and collegiality. The subject of this study is the definition of the concept of "composition of judges". The aim of the work is to differentiate the conceptual framework that defines the definitions of "judicial composition", "composition of the court" and "composition of the court" in order to eliminate conflicts of both a doctrinal and legislative nature. The main research methods are analysis and synthesis. In addition, the formal legal method was actively used. Empirical methods related to the study of practice materials were also used. The result of the work is the author's definition of the "composition of judges" and the classification of this legal phenomenon. The scope of the results is the development of public law doctrine and current legislation governing the organization of justice in the Russian Federation. The scientific novelty of the research consists in enriching the conceptual framework that defines the elements of the justice system, as well as in suggesting a possible direction for reforming the current legislation of the Russian Federation governing the organization of justice. The author proposed the concept and the corresponding differentiation of the concepts of "composition of the court", "judicial composition" and "composition of judges" in order to design both doctrinal uniformity and in the legislative definition. The introduction of these definitions into scientific circulation in the future may lead to changes in the relevant procedural codes. This will make it possible to achieve a unified understanding of the meaning of the concepts "composition of the court", "judicial composition" and "composition of judges".
Development of the regional innovation system: the experience of the People's Republic of China

Published: February 2025

Regional innovation and development is an important pillar for building an economically innovative country. This article examines the evolution of the national regional innovation strategy and China's experience in the development of the regional innovation system (RIS) since the implementation of the medium- and long-term S&T plans. On this basis, the changes in China's regional innovation model are comprehensively analyzed. A retrospective of the stages of development of approaches to RIS regulation in different periods is shown. The study shows that innovation has become the driving force of regional development, leading to the formation of a multilevel regional innovation system; the innovation potential of regions has generally improved, but new characteristics have emerged in the differentiation of levels of regional innovativeness. Based on the research experience of the People's Republic of China, proposals for the formation of the regional innovation system and development in the territory of the Russian Federation were put forward, taking into account the existing sanctions and restrictive factors. The article analyses economic phenomena using a systematic approach, based on the material collected from various sources and the work of researchers on this topic. Regional innovation and development is an important pillar for the comprehensive implementation of the national innovation development strategy and accelerating the construction of an innovative country. Based on China's experience in building a regional innovation system, it can be concluded that science and technology innovation centres and strategic regions have become the key pillars for national innovation and development. The innovation centres and the surrounding inland provinces work together to promote the overall improvement of innovation. Regional innovation and development and the regional innovation community will be the main form of organisation of the regional innovation space in the future. At the same time, this experience can be used as a reference point for the successful implementation of the regional innovation system of the Russian Federation.
Stabilizing a Bio-Inspired Rotating Empennage Fighter Aircraft in Multiple Trim Scenarios

Published: February 2025

This paper considers the problem of stabilizing a bio-inspired fighter aircraft at its Air Combat Maneuver Condition in steady-level and coordinated-turning flight. The aircraft equations of motion are linearized, and an infinite-horizon linear quadratic regulator design is conducted. The open-loop system is unstable in the short-period and Dutch roll modes. This is mitigated in the closed-loop system, which is analyzed in the time and frequency domains. Included in the simulation dynamics are first-order actuator models, actuator deflection limits, and actuator rate limits. These are particularly important for this bio-inspired aircraft because control actuation requires rotation of the empennage, which has relatively large inertia. Simulation responses to initial condition dispersions, aerodynamic model error, and atmospheric turbulence are analyzed to characterize time-domain properties: settling time, region of attraction, control saturation, and robustness. Due to poor singular values for the throttle setting and rotating tail inputs, analysis is dedicated to control designs with these inputs fixed at trim values. Within the scope of these analyses, fixing the rotating tail at trim does not significantly degrade system performance.

Kelapa merupakan salah satu komoditas yang paling melimpah di Indonesia. Kelapa, tidak hanya menyajikan makanan, minuman, dan bahan tambahan bagi kita, tetapi juga menghasilkan beberapa produk sampingan seperti sabut kelapa, atau cocofiber. Sabut kelapa asal Desa Campang biasanya dijual tanpa proses pengolahan lebih lanjut sehingga menyebabkan rendahnya nilai jual sabut kelapa tersebut. Namun masalah ini dapat diatasi dengan mengubah serat kelapa menjadi produk yang lebih bernilai seperti geotekstil. Namun terdapat beberapa permasalahan yang dihadapi petani di Desa Campang Raya seperti terbatasnya pengetahuan dalam pengolahan geotekstil berbahan dasar sabut kelapa, kurangnya pengetahuan tentang pentingnya memiliki mitra usaha, dan terbatasnya pengetahuan dalam mengelola usaha. Permasalahan tersebut pada akhirnya akan membatasi perkembangan usaha mereka yang berkaitan dengan serat kelapa. Untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut, ada beberapa cara yang bisa dilakukan, antara lain dengan memberikan edukasi yang benar tentang serat kelapa dan geotekstil, mengenalkan mereka pada pengolahan serat kelapa, memberikan pelatihan keterampilan, dan memberikan kesempatan kepada mereka untuk mengolah serat kelapa menjadi geotekstil. Maksud dan sasaran kegiatan pengembangan masyarakat ini secara umum adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan para petani di Desa Campang Raya sehingga dapat menghasilkan banyak produk dari sabut kelapa. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini juga dilakukan agar para petani di Desa Campang Raya mempunyai keterampilan yang cukup dalam memproduksi geotekstil sendiri, mengenalkannya kepada mitra usaha, serta mampu menghitung dan mengelola hasil usahanya sendiri.
