Published: July 2023

Nowadays, small business entrepreneurs use a new marketing tool to promote their products. This tool is named Live streaming.Objectives: This study aims to help online shop owners maintain customer live-streaming engagement so it can enhance viewers' participation through live-streaming commerce.Methodology: This study used quantitative data, utilizing a survey methodology and employing Indonesian citizens as the research's object. Respondents were obtained through Google form with 225 respondents to be analyzed using PLS-SEM. Variables were measured using a Likert scale. Finding: The result of this study suggests that interactivity, informativeness, and personalization correlate with customer engagement in live-streaming commerce.Conclusion: This research shows how to make a live streaming engagement using e-commerce which was influenced by interactivity, a response to an interaction between subscribers and streamers during live streaming. In addition, there is also informativeness that affects customer live-streaming engagement which is seen from the information provided by the streamer to customers. There is personalization which also affects live-streaming commerce. Future studies can be done in other countries by using the enormous shopping platform in their country with specific shopping platforms, specific sectors (fashion, electronics, food, and others), and measure customer live-streaming engagement using attractiveness because not many papers discuss this topic in Indonesia. Future studies also can distribute more questionnaires for more relevant and valid results and also add more factors like the increase in customer engagement in purchase intention or value co-creation.
Tafsiran Eksistensialisme Terhadap Makna Kewujudan Manusia: Analisis Kritis Muhammad Sa`id Ramdan Al-Buti
Authors: Abidin Azmil Zainal
Published: July 2023

Philosophical discussions have attempted to understand the human identity through various interpretations. After the First and Second World Wars, existentialism that focussed on aspects of the human existence as a central theme of philosophy emerged. Man is ‘thrown’ into this world and is 'punished' in order to be free. Aguish and death foreshadow man who is forced to create meaning and purpose in life. Freedom is considered the 'essence' of human beings who have responsibilities thus are required to make decisions based on freedom of choices. This article identified the main premise of existentialism in interpreting the meaning of human existence. The article also evaluated the interpretation based on Muhammad Sa`id Ramadan al-Buti's perspective through a critical analysis. The writing was based on literature research through the documentation method in collecting data related to the research question and the data analysis method, which is a process to detect the form of data in order to make interpretations. The understanding of existentialism was found to be more dominated by philosophical and psychological speculation due to the experiences of modern human suffering. From the epistemological aspect, it also influenced the metaphysical and axiological ontological perspectives that led to the concept of absolute human freedom in thinking and actions.

Published: July 2023

Muslims in Malaysia nowadays has been utilizing the television as a medium in learning about Islamic knowledge, resulting in a steady growth of religious television programs that covers a variety of concept which are broadcasted to satisfy such needs like TV Al Hijrah. However, there has been widespread issues regarding the use of fabricated hadith in religious programs and the audience’s varying degree of education and knowledge makes the issue even more pressing. Thus, a study is conducted to identify the level of understanding and the daily practice of the audiences towards these hadith spread through the religious program that was broadcasted in TV Al Hijrah. The necessary data was acquired through a set of inquiry instruments and was later analyzed through the descriptive analysis method in order to get the value of frequency, percentage, min and standard deviation. The research finds that the audience’s level of understanding towards the rejected hadith was at a middle-to-high level with the min score of 3.38, meanwhile their daily practice level was also at a middle-to-high level with the min score of 3.04. The research result implies that there is a need to form a guideline, involving concerned parties, to ensure that such issues will be resolved, and to ensure that the audience can safely utilize television as a medium to receive Islamic knowledge.

Published: July 2023

Dyes have an important role in the industrial sector to increase consumer interest in a product. Urang aring is a plant with color pigments that can be used as natural dyes. This study aims to utilize urang aring leaf extract as a natural hair dye for the manufacture of pomade by producing the quality of pomade preparations according to standards. The research method was carried out experimentally including: determining the water content and ash content of urang aring leaves and optimizing the time of dye extraction and storage of urang aring leaf extract using a UV - Vis spectrophotometer, then making pomade based on the formulation of urang aring leaf extract and beeswax, namely: formulation I (3:3), II (5:3), and III (10:3). Pomade quality test includes: organoleptic test, homogeneity test, pH test, freeze-thaw test, and color stability test against sunlight. Based on the results of the study, it was found that urang aring leaf extract can be used as a natural dye for the manufacture of pomade with formulation III which meets the standards in the pomade quality test because it has a soft dense texture, blackish green color, and has no odor with a pH of 6 which is ideal for hair. Pomade formulation III also has a texture that does not separate at extreme temperatures and good color stability under direct sunlight for 5 hours.
Audit report delay: Does directors’ busyness matter?
Authors: Aljaaidi Khaled S. , Alwadani Neef F.
Published: July 2023

Fich and Shivdasani (2006) argue that active boards of directors with many external members have poor corporate governance. According to Al-Ajmi (2008), the primary source of information for shareholders in developing countries is financial reporting. This study aims at investigating the connection between director busyness and timely financial reporting. The sample includes 510 non-financial Saudi companies listed on the Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul). This study uses the busyness hypothesis, rooted in the agency theory, to explain the relationship between board busyness and audit report delay. The ordinary-least square (OLS) regression result showed a positive correlation between busy directors and timely reporting. This finding indicates that the delay in issuing the audit report is likely to increase if there is a high degree of director busyness. Not many studies have focused on the connection between busy directors and timely reporting in the context of Saudi Arabia. Listed companies, external auditors, the Saudi Stock Exchange, and policymakers should give careful consideration to this study’s findings because of the interesting results showing the negative effects of busy directors on the timeliness of financial reporting.
The Physics Principles and Mathematical Explanation of Supply and Demand --- Returning to the Starting Point of Economic Research
Authors: Meng Xiangpeng
Published: July 2023

This manuscript presents a pioneering application of Newton’s three laws
and the principles of relativity to the study of fundamental theories in
economics. By analogizing desires, utility, and prices to physical
concepts, and integrating these concepts into the theoretical framework
of natural sciences using mathematical language, the author has
constructed a binary system and a ternary system for economic analysis.
Based on this foundation, the laws of momentum conservation and energy
conservation in social sciences are derived on a mathematical level.
Subsequently, the characteristics of free markets and non-free markets
are analyzed according to the hypotheses of momentum conservation and
energy conservation in social sciences. This manuscript argues that the
fundamental theoretical principles in social sciences, represented by
economics, are unified with those in natural sciences, represented by
physics. The mathematical explanation of supply and demand in social
sciences presented in this manuscript offers a perfect integration of
the theoretical foundations of economics into the framework of physical
principles. This opens up new research areas for future studies in
social sciences.

Published: July 2023

Non-coding RNA species play important roles in biological mechanisms
that regulate glioma initiation and progression. Recently, evidence
suggests that ZNFX1 antisense RNA 1 ( ZFAS1) has the
ability to act as an oncogene or tumour suppressor, and so plays
critical regulatory functions in the development and progression of many
types of cancers such as lung, renal and hepatocarcinoma. The roles of
ZFAS1 in glioma cancer are still unclear, and there are numerous
potential pathways to explore. The current work provides a scoping
review of studies on ZFAS1’s functions and underlying molecular
mechanisms in the initiation and progression of glioma, as well as a
possible field of research to be examined further. A literature search
was carried out using Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science (WoS) using a
specified search string, and the data gathered was discussed and
reported. This scoping review comprised five original research papers
that study ZFAS1 and its roles in gliomagenesis. ZFAS1 was
found to be highly upregulated in glioma. Tumour-node-metastasis (TNM)
stage, lymph node metastases, and overall survival were revealed to be
significantly associated with ZFAS1 status and regulated via
several pathways and interactions, such as miRNA signalling,
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) and Notch signalling pathway.
Furthermore, ZFAS1 knockdown decreased cell proliferation,
migration, and invasion while promoting cell death, implying that
ZFAS1 is involved in the glioma cancer progression. The
evaluation of their diagnostic importance and therapeutic potential may
aid in the development of novel therapies for glioma cancer.
Psychometric Network Analysis of the Intuitive Eating Scale-2 in Chinese General Adults
Authors: He Jinbo , Ji Feng , Sun Hongyi , Barnhart Wesley , Cui Tianxiang , Cui Shuqi , Zhang Jihong
Published: July 2023

Intuitive Eating Scale-2 (IES-2) is a measurement of intuitive eating
behaviors and has been validated, with traditional latent variable
approaches, in youth and adults from a number of different populations,
including college students in China. However, there still lacks the
evaluation of the psychometric properties of the IES-2 in adults from
the Chinese general population. Moreover, psychometric network analysis,
as a complement to traditional latent variable approaches, has not been
used for examining the psychometric properties of the IES-2. Thus, the
present study aimed to use a psychometric network approach to evaluate
the psychometric properties of the IES-2 in Chinese adults from the
general population. A sample of 700 Chinese general adults (50% women;
M = 31.13 years, SD = 9.19) were
included in the present study. Psychometric network analysis was
performed by using EGAnet and psychonetrics packages on R
4.2.0. Exploratory graph analysis (EGA) identified four dimensions,
which were well-separated in the estimated network. The network
structure showed excellent stability and metric measurement invariance
(i.e., network loadings) across men and women. Furthermore, several
items in the IES-2 were identified as key nodes in the network of the
IES-2 that may be important for the developement and maintenance of
intuitive eating. For example, two items related to reliance on body
cues were the most impactful nodes in the complete network. The findings
of our study provide further understandings of the IES-2 from the
perspective of network analysis and have implications for related
applications of intuitive eating interventions for general populations.

Authors: Chiaradia Fernanda de Oliveira , Luchese Stelamaris , Buratti Cecillia , Pauletto Lívia da Rosa , Navarro Nadia , Carvalho Paulo Roberto , Rocha Tais da
Published: July 2023

Objectives: Right ventricle (RV) dysfunction has a significant impact on
the morbidity and mortality of critically ill patients and is associated
with worse outcomes. This study aims to analyze the frequency of
echocardiographic alterations of the RV in children undergoing invasive
mechanical ventilation (IMV). Methods: Observational study conducted on
patients undergoing mechanical ventilation in a pediatric intensive care
unit from May 2019 to June 2022. Bedside echocardiograms were performed,
and measurements of tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE),
tissue Doppler S’ wave, and right ventricle/left ventricle (RV/LV) ratio
were evaluated. Results: A total of 146 echocardiograms were analyzed,
with a median age of 7 months, 64.4% were infants, and 51.4% were
female. It was observed that 24% (35) had TAPSE alterations, 14% (20)
had alterations in the S’ wave, and 10.7% (15) had RV/LV ratio altered.
Considering RV dysfunction as any of these altered parameters, the
frequency was 38.5% (55), with cardiac index weakly correlated with
TAPSE (r=0.171; p<0.048) and S’ wave (r=0.281;
p<0.001). There was no significant association between
echocardiographic alterations and respiratory parameters. Regarding
hemodynamic status, the median Vasoactive-inotropic Score was higher in
the dysfunction group (7.5 vs. 3; p<0.048), as well as lactate
levels (1.74 vs. 1.3; p<0.015). None of the variables were
associated with mortality, duration of IMV or length of hospital stay.
Conclusions: Echocardiographic alterations of the RV are frequent in
children undergoing MV. Echocardiography is a non-invasive tool that
aids in identifying this condition, which can impact the management of
critically ill patients.

The condensation product of 7-acetyl-6-azaindole and Girard?s T reagent ((E)-2-(2-(1-(1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-7-yl)ethylidene)hydrazineyl)- -N,N,N-trimethyl-2-oxoethan-1-aminium, HL ligand) was used as a ligand in the reaction with Cu(BF4)2?6H2O and NaN3. The reaction led to the formation of a binuclear Cu(II) complex containing two end-to-end (di-?-1,3-N3) azide bridges, as well as two NNO-donor hydrazone ligands, forming an axially elongated square pyramidal geometry around each Cu(II) center. This end-to-end (di- ?-1,3-N3) azide bridge binding mode has not yet been reported, in Cu(II) complexes containing the NNO-donor hydrazone ligands, which makes the structure of the complex even more interesting for further studies. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography, and it was found that it crystallizes in the triclinic space group P?1 with the asymmetric unit comprising one Cu(II) centre, zwitterionic ligand L, one azide (N3 -) ligand and BF4 - counter anion. Examination of antimicrobial activity of the complex shows higher antifungal and antibacterial activity towards tested Gram-positive bacteria in comparison to the hydrazone ligand, with the antifungal activity of the complex even being comparable to the activity of amphotericin B.

Objectives: To prospectively examine the associations of habitual calcium supplementation with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) events and mortality in individuals with and without diabetes.

Methods: The main analysis included 434,674 participants from the UK Biobank. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Interactions of calcium supplement use with diabetes status were tested on multiplicative and additive scales.

Results: Over a median follow-up of 8.1 and 11.2 years, 26,374 incident CVD events and 20,526 deaths were documented, respectively. After multivariable adjustment, habitual calcium supplementation was significantly associated with higher risks of CVD incidence (HR: 1.34 [95% CI:1.14, 1.57]), CVD mortality (HR: 1.67 [95% CI: 1.19, 2.33]), and all-cause mortality (HR: 1.44 [95% CI: 1.20, 1.72]) in participants with diabetes, whereas no significant association was observed in participants without diabetes (HR: 0.97 [95% CI: 0.92, 1.03] for CVD incidence; HR: 1.05 [95% CI: 0.90, 1.23] for CVD mortality; HR: 1.02 [95% CI: 0.96, 1.09] for all-cause mortality). Significant multiplicative and additive interactions were found between habitual calcium supplementation and diabetes status on risks of CVD events and mortality (all P interaction<0.05). In contrast, no significant interactions were observed between dietary or serum calcium and diabetes status.

Conclusions: Habitual use of calcium supplements was significantly associated with higher risk of CVD events and mortality in people with diabetes, but not in people without diabetes. Further studies are needed to balance potentially adverse effects of calcium supplement against likely benefits, particularly among patients with diabetes.

Prediction of renal recovery following sepsis-associated acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy using contrast-enhanced ultrasonography
Authors: Shin Jungho , Hwang Jin Ho , Park Sung Bin , Kim Su Hyun
Published: July 2023

Background: Microcirculatory dysfunction plays a critical role in sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (S-AKI) development; however, its impact on renal recovery remains uncertain. We investigated the association between cortical microcirculatory function assessed using contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) and renal recovery after S-AKI needing renal replacement therapy (RRT). Methods: This retrospective study included 23 patients who underwent CEUS among those who underwent acute RRT for S-AKI. In addition, we acquired data from 17 healthy individuals and 18 patients with chronic kidney disease. Renal recovery was defined as sustained independence from RRT for at least 14 days. Results: Of the CEUS-derived parameters, rise time, time to peak, and fall time were longer in patients with S-AKI than in healthy individuals (p = 0.045, 0.01, and 0.096, respectively). Fourteen patients (60.9%) with S-AKI receiving RRT experienced renal recovery; and these patients had higher values of peak enhancement, wash-in area under the curve (AUC), wash-in perfusion index, and washout AUC than those without recovery (p = 0.03, 0.01, 0.03, and 0.046, respectively). We evaluated the receiver operating characteristic curve and found that the peak enhancement, wash-in AUC, wash-in perfusion index, and wash-out AUC of CEUS derivatives estimated the probability of renal recovery after S-AKI requiring RRT (p = 0.03, 0.01, 0.03, and 0.04, respectively). Conclusion: CEUS-assessed cortical microvascular perfusion may predict renal recovery following S-AKI that requires RRT. Further studies are essential to validate the clinical utility of microcirculatory parameters obtained from CEUS to estimate renal outcomes in various etiologies and severities of kidney disease.

"The article examines the state of modern Ukrainian opera of the 21st century, which reflects European and global trends aimed at updating the genre and searching for new genre models. The authors of the article purposefully chose works by composers of almost all age categories, which are quite different in terms of genre content – interpretation of traditions and innovation – from creative youth to the most famous artists in the whole world (E. Stankovich), and consciously focused attention on examples of modern opera from several regions of Ukraine: Kyiv, Kharkiv, Odessa, Lviv, Dnipro. This work, dedicated to modern Ukrainian opera, combined the efforts of a practicing composer and a musicologist-scientist. After all, the material of research in one of the sections of the article was the parody comic opera by Valentina Martynyuk (Brondzia), as an example of the only opera performance in the Dnieper region. The research methodology is based on historical-typological, genre-stylistic, comparative, and analytical methods. The historical -typological method is related to the problems of the opera genre at the modern stage, which needs updating and radical changes; genre-stylistic, comparative, and analytical methods allow us to draw conclusions about the peculiarities of genre models of modern Ukrainian operas. They reflect Ukrainian national traditions, including authentic music and modern compositional techniques. It is noted that the level of the ratio of traditional and innovative appeal to the opera genre is determined by the individual creative approach of a certain composer and director.

"The article examines the role and function of the father figure in the libretti of Pietro Metastasio, focusing on the representations of the tyrannous rather than the benevolent father. The bulk of his oeuvre written for the Viennese court, Metastasio’s libretti took an active role in propagating the reigning and intertwining social–political systems of absolutist monarchy and patriarchy. The tyrannous father figure served to heighten the usual tension of the contradictory duties of public and private lives, highlighting the dilemma of how far the paterfamilias should be obeyed and his mistreatment towards his child be suffered, analyzed here through the example of Artabano in Artaserse, also pointing out the differing relationship dynamic and dramatic treatment of father–son and father–daughter relationships.

"The opera A Masked Ball’marks the end of the middle period in the work of Giuseppe Verdi and represents an important stage in the musical progress of the composer. It comprises a variety and an orchestral inventiveness much higher than any other of his previous works, and, more than ever, the score is consistent with the dramatical structure of the opera. Compared to some titles from the first period of creation, the outlining of the protagonists is not performed only by means of vocality. The subtlety of the orchestral music rounds off a rich sound picture, in accordance with the requirements of musical dramaturgy. This article addresses the structural, stylistic, and dramaturgical aspects found at the level of the orchestral discourse. Keywords: masked ball, Verdi, expressiveness, musical dramaturgy, orchestral discourse."

"The contemporary performative scene is defined by the interaction of the means of artistic expression, which determines a permanent renewal of the scenic language. This article discusses the multiple stage practices that animate performances in theater and music, in their complementarity or dynamic confrontation. These interactions are presented here from the perspective of the specific musical work of Jean-Jacques Lemêtre, who facilitated a voice and movement rhythm workshop at the Faculty of Theater and Film within Babeș-Bolyai University, in March 2023. Unique figure in the theatrical musical landscape, he has been the musician, composer, luthier, and interpreter of the sound universe of Théâtre du Soleil performances for more than forty years. This work aims to demonstrate that music for theater is a special genre born through the process of organic integration of the theatricality of the stage, by assuming the risk of being contaminated by the impurity generated by the actors' bodies that emit their own sound universe. Music for theater is enriched and energized by these experiences born from the osmosis of sound - enhanced image into organic and fruitful connections.

"The article analyses and scientifically evaluates the attitude of teachers teaching various school subjects towards the non-formal musical activity groups: the gymnasium choir, ensemble, etc. The main research questions are: What is the attitude of teachers at various school subjects towards the activities of musical groups in the gymnasium? What changes took place after the establishment of musical groups in the gymnasium? The qualitative research was conducted using the interview method. The attitude to musical groups in the gymnasium was reflected by 7 teachers teaching various subjects: three representatives of the administration and four teachers at different school subjects. The data analysis was performed using the qualitative content analysis method. The research results showed that non-formal musical activities carried out in the gymnasium not only marked the uniqueness of the school, shaped the image of the gymnasium but also united and enabled the participants of the educational process to collaborate and naturally work together for a common goal. Keywords: non-formal artistic/musical activity, music education, teachers’ attitude"

"Csíkmadaras is in the southern part of the microregion called Felcsík. The latter has always been a preferred area for ethnomusicologists, beginning with Béla Bartók. After I started collecting folk songs in the area in 1993, I set out to make a monograph of vocal songs of Csíkmadaras village. Between 1999 and 2011 I spent 18 days on the field, recording more than 12 and a half hours of vocal folk music. The collection contains 441 distinct melodies, along with variants and those repeated several times, a total of 644 tunes. What surprised me during the processing of the material was the great number of songs from the old strata. Along with the new-style melodies they represent almost 2/5 of the total collection. In comparison, the relatively small number of less valuable songs was below previous expectations. From the result of the collection, it appears that, at the beginning of the XXIst century, in Csíkmadaras there is still very valuable folklore material. Keywords: folk songs, collections, Csíkmadaras, monograph, old strata, new style"

"Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) may benefit from music education as a potentially effective methodology for improving their verbal and social communication abilities. Therefore, the objective of this research is to evaluate how well music education aids students in their growth of social communication. The focus of the study area is the necessity of integrating music education into all classroom learning activities. This study's methodology involves reviewing a few earlier research projects on the value of music instruction for individuals with autism spectrum disorders. The reviewed studies will be critically analyzed to draw valid conclusions about the effectiveness of music education in improving social communication for autism spectrum disorder students. The study's findings indicate that ASD students have improved their attitudes toward using different music-based teaching techniques. Teachers also reported that students easily grasp the learning process's fundamentals, and that learning becomes more enjoyable. In conclusion, it can be seen that music education in the learning process of ASD students greatly affects the process of social communication.

O texto desmaterializado: explorando os limites da Filologia Digital
Authors: Banza Ana Paula
Published: July 2023

O presente artigo discute, a partir do trabalho que vem sendo desenvolvido no âmbito do projecto Arquivo digital e análise assistida da História do Futuro, as vantagens e os limites da desmaterialização do texto em meio digital.Analisa-se, em concreto, o caso da obra do Padre António Vieira História do Futuro, demonstrando como o conjunto textual que tem sido editado como quatro obras diferentes, com tempos e circunstâncias de produção diferentes, é, afinal, conceptualmente, uma única Obra, inacabada, em que a totalidade do que foi escrito pelo Autor não é captada em nenhuma das obras físicas editadas, mas é captável no paradigma digital, graças à desmaterialização do texto, que permite juntar estes materiais e reconstruir “arqueologicamente” a Obra, a partir do seu Plano.A partir deste caso, que acarreta uma abordagem específica do conceito de desmaterialização/descorporificação (PAIXÃO DE SOUSA, 2013 a e b) e do próprio conceito de texto, discutem-se as vantagens e limites da Filologia Digital.
El rol de la traducción en la paleografía de los Cantares mexicanos
Authors: Lelis de Oliveira Sara
Published: July 2023

Este trabajo tiene como objeto abordar el rol de la traducción en la paleografía de los Cantares mexicanos, manuscrito colonial en náhuatl clásico resguardado en la Biblioteca Nacional de México. A través de nuestra experiencia traductora de tres cantos del cancionero al portugués, constatamos que la traducción interviene de manera imprescindible en por lo menos tres momentos del desciframiento de los caracteres y la respectiva edición de este texto escrito en una lengua originaria. El primero, en la reescritura computadorizada de los cantos, pues el náhuatl consiste en una lengua aglutinante y polisintética que requiere su reorganización según la morfología propuesta por los frailes españoles e investigadores contemporáneos, su corrección conforme a los vocabularios de náhuatl clásico, y su actualización/modernización de acuerdo con las letras del alfabeto español más recientes. La traducción resulta fundamental en la identificación de cada afijo y, consecuentemente, de las categorías gramaticales de esta lengua. El segundo, en la puntuación del texto en náhuatl clásico, puesto que la traducción literal sugiere las frases y oraciones mediante la interpretación de cada una de ellas. El tercero, en la versificación de los cantos ¾los cuales fueron transliterados al manuscrito en forma prosaica¾ conforme a la decisión del traductor(a). En nuestro caso, optamos por la versificación solamente del texto en portugués, pero dos traductores mexicanos de los Cantares al español presentaron el texto en náhuatl en forma vérsica, del cual compararemos fragmentos en función de sus traducciones a fin de demostrar su rol en la transcripción y edición paleográficas.

Akkumulátoros és hidrogénhajtás vizsgálatának szempontrendszere a városközi vasúti személyszállításban Magyarországon

A nemzetközi és országos szinten megfogalmazott és kitűzött klímacélok megkövetelik a közlekedési eszközök károsanyag-kibocsátásának mérséklését, hosszú távon pedig a teljes karbonsemlegesség elérését. Ez elsősorban alternatív hajtású (tisztán elektromos vagy hidrogénüzemű) járművek forgalomba állításával érhető el, amely magába foglalja a kötöttpályás közlekedés felsővezetékkel nem rendelkező részét is. Éppen ezért a közúti közlekedés mellett a helyközi vasúti közlekedésben is elengedhetetlen a szerelvények fogalomba állítását megelőzően a kiszolgáló infrastruktúra elemzése, a szükséges átalakítások definiálása, valamint az alkalmazási célterületek meghatározása.
