Relationship between social cause, environment conservation and environmental attitude, towards promoting green purchasing behavior
Authors: Singh Sondhi , Chawla Udit , Iqbal Hena
Published: June 2023

Irresponsible and imprudent usage of natural resources has presented a significant threat to the environment and its resources, contaminating them, and impeding their development. To mitigate this effect, responsible policies and practices must be adopted and implemented. One of the most successful strategies is to reduce our reliance on conventional items and replace them with green alternatives. However, insufficient information and expertise among consumers hamper their efforts to promote green products. Thus, it is critical to understand the factors influencing consumers' behavior and intentions toward green products to increase their acceptance. The purpose of the study is to learn more about how caring about the environment, having a desire to make a positive impact, and having a positive attitude towards the environment can help encourage people to buy ecofriendly products. 549 responses were collected using Google form from India, China, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. Structural Equation Modelling was used to test the forming assumptions. It was found that the study supports the hypotheses and the constructs of social issues, environmental conservation, and mindset, are significantly associated with the green buying behavior of the consumers. Additionally, it was found that environmental attitude should be further integrated to reinforce these relationships.
Lanchester's differential equations as operational command decision making tools
Authors: Kostić Mladen , Jovanović Aca
Published: June 2023

This paper investigates the application of Lanchester's equations as a scientific method and tool for examining the functioning of the armed forces as complex organizational systems in combat. It is important to assess the reliability of the knowledge obtained by this method, about the facts of the operational environment and the effectiveness of the use of forces, in order to support the process of planning and making optimal decisions, in conditions of uncertainty and risk, which are inherent in warfare. According to this hypothesis, a mathematical model was developed based on the wellknown Lanchester's equations, which defined the quadratic and linear law of combat between two opponents with a heterogeneous force structure (air force and army). The created model enables a correct simplified analysis in the decision-making process. Real war and combat operations are very complex and require the use of complex simulators, whose methodological background is often unknown to decision makers, which is why reliable approximate simulation and modeling methods are necessary and desirable.
Scenarios for the employment of people with disabilities by work integration social enterprises in Latvia
Authors: Licite-Kurbe Lasma , Sevcuna Liva
Published: June 2023

Employment is an important part of adult life, yet access to the labour market for people with disabilities is limited. A solution is to promote the development of work integration social enterprises (WISEs), yet this requires more support. Therefore, the research aims to identify factors influencing the employment of persons with disabilities by WISEs and design scenarios for promoting the employment of persons with disabilities in Latvia in the context of social entrepreneurship. The research performed a systematic theoretical review to identify the factors, their scope and characteristics as well as their significance and applied analysis, synthesis and deduction for the identification and classification of the factors. The scenario method was employed to identify employment opportunities for people with disabilities, yet an assessment of the scenarios was performed by applying the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), which involved experts engaged in social entrepreneurship. The research found that the most effective way to promote the employment of people with disabilities by WISEs was to increase the scope of national support instruments, and that the use of municipal support instruments was essential. The national support scenario involved partly subsidising wages for disabled employees employed by WISEs and support for long-term investment in WISEs.

Published: June 2023

The aim of this research was to investigate the effects of different exercises on the development of tennis players' agility. The electronic database PubMed was used to search and collect relevant studies in the field of agility in tennis. This study was conducted based on the PRISMA statement. A total of 361 participants were included in this study. Twelve studies met the criteria in order to be included in this study. The results showed that the effect was statistically significant after each exercise program (high-intensity interval training, court tennis training, neuromuscular warm-up, sport-specific training, plyometric training, neuromuscular and performance training). The exercise programs lasted from 5 - 12 weeks with a weekly frequency of three times for 45 to 90 minutes. The results, obtained in this way, indicate a sensitive period for the development of agility in this age group, i.e. junior tennis players. The analyzed areas of agility assessment, frontal and lateral agility observed on the basis of agility assessment tests, were singled out.

Authors: Castillo Palomo Yasmin Sara
Published: June 2023

La revisión sistemática presenta como objetivo analizar la literatura respecto a la protección de la economía ante las transacciones digitales fantasmas relacionado al supuesto de la afirmación del Perú como paraíso fiscal ante el delito de lavado de activos. Se especifica la problemática cuando se trata de emprendimientos que están ligados con plataformas digitales, la gran mayoría de estas transferencias ya no son realizadas por entidades bancarias, ya que existe las monedas virtuales, las cuales ingresan de manera directa a sus supuestas cuentas virtuales y realizan diversas transferencias de las cuales no hay un registro en el cual se pueda ver quien es la persona que deposita. Este tipo de transacciones hace que aquellos que desean lavar su dinero proveniente de delitos como tráfico ilícito de drogas, usen este tipo de modalidad a su favor. La metodología es de enfoque cualitativo con método Inductivo, tipo básico y un diseño de revisión sistemática de literatura nacional e internacional. Se concluye que se regule las acciones comerciales de emprendimientos que están ligados con plataformas digitales, de las cuales no hay un registro en el cual se pueda ver quien es la persona que deposita.
The role of subjective power dynamics in far-right collective action: The “Unite the Right” rally and the Capitol insurrection
Authors: Hoerst Carina , Drury John
Published: June 2023

Far-right collective action has previously been explained in terms of collective grievances. However, this does not adequately explain mobilisations after ingroup-relevant successes. Based on the broader collective action literature, we suggest that analysing experiences of subjective power before and during collective action may significantly complement existing explanations of far-right mobilisations. We used secondary data (predominantly videos from YouTube and ProPublica) from the 2017 Charlottesville “Unite the Right” rally and the 2021 Washington Capitol insurrection to qualitatively examine the extent to which attendees reported experiencing collective psychological empowerment alongside the perception of collective grievances. The events were connected by the effort to unify the far-right yet were shaped by different immediate contexts. We find that at Charlottesville, attendees arrived already feeling empowered and gained further empowerment from the rally itself. While the Capitol insurrection seemed to be driven by collective grievances, there were some indicators of empowerment experiences mainly deriving from the event itself. Our analysis has implications for disempowering far-right collective action.

La recuperación del turismo tras el impacto del COVID-19: ¿regreso a la normalidad o cambio del modelo ético?
Authors: Filgueiras Nodar José María
Published: June 2023

Este texto expone los principales indicadores turísticos de los últimos cuatro años, para mostrar el impacto de la pandemia de COVID-19 en el turismo global, así como la lenta recuperación del mismo, haciendo una breve referencia a algunas tendencias que se avizoran de cara a su futuro, y cuestionando la posibilidad real de que el turismo se vaya a desarrollar de forma diferente, en el camino de prácticas más éticas y sostenibles. Para ello, se utilizan datos provenientes de organismos internacionales, en especial de la Organización Mundial del Turismo. El escrito se estructura en seis apartados: el primero aporta una breve reseña cronológica de la pandemia de COVID-19 y sus efectos, mientras que el segundo expone los efectos de la pandemia en el sector turístico, que se ve obligado a frenar de manera violenta una expansión prácticamente ininterrumpida desde la Segunda Guerra Mundial. La pandemia convirtió al año 2020 en el peor de toda la historia del turismo, con una enorme reducción en las llegadas de turistas y la resultante disminución de los ingresos, que, aunada a los otros impactos del COVID, supuso un durísimo golpe para el sector. Los siguientes epígrafes, a su vez, analizan la paulatina recuperación del sector turístico a lo largo de 2021 y 2022, un proceso que, pese al apoyo de los gobiernos nacionales e instituciones internacionales, ha estado marcado por numerosos retrocesos e incertidumbres. Tras una referencia a los múltiples impactos económicos, socioculturales y ambientales del turismo, así como a la suspensión de los mismos debido al parón que supuso la pandemia, el último apartado del texto plantea una serie de consideraciones de cara al futuro de la actividad turística, partiendo de una dicotomía entre recuperar la normalidad o renovar profundamente el sector.
El estudio de la política exterior de México en el siglo XX: Instituciones, libros, temas y autores
Authors: Gaytán Rosa Isabel
Published: June 2023

Este ensayo hace un primer recuento de los libros publicados en México sobre la política exterior de este país. Revisa las grandes líneas de la citada política exterior en el siglo XX como expresión del proceso de construcción del Estado posrevolucionario que pretendió una política antitética a la del porfiriato y buscó renegociar la vinculación internacional, ahora desde un modelo de economía mixta aunque seguiría centrado en la búsqueda de la modernidad y el desarrollo. Los cambios en el mundo y en dicho modelo, al fin de la guerra fría, tuvieron un impacto en los temas estudiados y en las perspectivas de análisis. De una perspectiva eminentemente histórica y jurídica se pasó a temas y enfoques más políticos y económicos, que incluyeron hacia el final del siglo al comercio, la seguridad, el desarrollo o la cooperación. Ello como consecuencia de los temas vigentes en la sociedad internacional que vio aparecer intentos organizativos de corte universal como la Sociedad de Naciones o la Organización de Naciones Unidas y toda la cauda de organismos derivados de ellas. A lo largo del período se consolidan instituciones y grupos de estudiosos de la política exterior de México. Entre las instituciones destacan El Colegio de México, el Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económicas (CIDE), la UNAM, la Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores y algunas grandes editoriales del país como el Fondo de Cultura Económica y Ediciones Porrúa. Respecto a los autores debo señalar la consolidación de un grupo más o menos constante de especialistas cuyas obras asoman desde los primeros años setenta y que se mantienen vigentes hasta los días actuales. Si bien la primera mitad del siglo estuvo representada, básicamente, por juristas e historiadores, los internacionalistas llegaron a ocupar espacios una vez que se afianzaron los estudios de Relaciones Internacionales en el país.
The Relevance of ‘International Society’ in the 21st Century: Challenges and Opportunities in a Potential Post-Liberal Order
Authors: Kacowicz Arie M.
Published: June 2023

In this paper, I aim to update and apply the idea and practices of “international society,” as developed in the classic book written by Hedley Bull (1977). This, by assessing its continuing relevance in the first decades of the 21st century. For scholarly, practical, and policy reasons, I believe that Bull’s masterpiece offers a relevant ‘guide to the perplexed’ to navigate world politics in our turbulent times. The two research questions to be addressed in the paper are: First, what are the challenges confronting the idea of the contemporary international society and its practices in the third decade of the 21st century? Second, what is the relevance of the idea of the international society and its practices nowadays? To answer the first question, I compile a list of significant contemporary challenges to the international society. In a nutshell, these include the rise of non-state actors and their challenge to the centrality of states; the impact of globalization and the preponderance of global issues (such as COVID-19 and climate change); and the lack of agreed global and shared norms, in both cultural and normative terms, which make international cooperation more difficult to obtain. Facing these four intertwined challenges, I argue that the idea and practices of international society can be updated to face the complex realities of our times. I sustain this argument by linking the concept and practices of the international society to the relevant mechanisms of global and regional governance, including the institutions of the international society. I refer to alternative world orders from the North and the South that reflect the resilience of the international society. Moreover, the opportunities for the flourishing of international society might include its potential decoupling from the Liberal International Order.
La rivalidad estratégica entre Estados Unidos (OTAN) y Rusia: la guerra en Ucrania
Authors: Peña Guerrero Roberto
Published: June 2023

El artículo pretende demostrar la hipótesis general: la invasión de Rusia a Ucrania se inscribe en el marco de respuestas de Rusia ante la amenaza del proceso de militarización de los países de Europa Oriental vía su ingreso a la OTAN. Se responden dos preguntas guía: ¿Cómo se ha reproducido la política de fuerza militar de los Estados Unidos-OTAN en las últimas tres décadas, a partir del “fin de la Guerra Fría”? ¿Qué ha pasado con el complejo interinstitucional de seguridad europea, cuya fractura se evidencia con la actual guerra ruso-ucraniana? La comprobación empírica de la hipótesis se sustenta, por un lado, en exponer el descomunal presupuesto militar anual que ha mantenido Estados Unidos a pesar de la desintegración de la Unión Soviética y el colapso del socialismo real en Europa y, por otro lado, detallar la estrategia de Estados Unidos para militarizar la frontera del frente europeo de Rusia a través del ingreso a la OTAN de los países exsocialistas de Europa Oriental; proyecto que se formaliza con el Acta de Participación de la OTAN de 1994, mediante el cual el Congreso estadounidense autorizaba a Bill Clinton a implementar la estrategia mencionada, la cual fue profundizada por George Walker Bush y mantenida por Obama, Trump y, actualmente, por Biden. La reciente renovación del concepto estratégico de la OTAN convierte a ésta en el principal vector estratégico de Estados Unidos en el mundo.
Libia: un Estado fallido
Authors: Roldán Eduardo
Published: June 2023

Desde que Muamar Gadafi fue derrocado, capturado y luego asesinado en 2011, la nación se fragmentó entre dos gobiernos rivales basados en el Este y el Oeste, cada uno respaldado por grupos armados y por distintos gobiernos extranjeros. Hasta el año 2012 fui embajador de México en Libia pero he dado seguimiento al acontecer libio hasta hoy. Puedo asegurar que entre 2011 y 2022, Libia se desintegró y quedó encerrada en el centro de una vorágine de una guerra civil despiadada: en un Estado fallido. Considero que es indiscutible que las negociaciones entre las partes han representado un avance para la pacificación de Libia. Sin embargo, han sido insuficientes. Hay que darle tiempo al tiempo para que se consolide la paz regional.
Abdennour Bidar: Génie de la France: le vrai sens de la laïcité. Editions Albin Michel. Paris. 2021, 206 pp.
Authors: Orset Pierre
Published: June 2023

Dans son livre, “Le génie de la France : le vrai sens de la laïcité” Abdennour Bidar s’interroge sur la valeur républicaine de la fraternité et pose une question très actuelle : comment définir notre identité française ? Il démontre au fil des pages que la laïcité n’est pas seulement un cadre qui permettrait de “ne pas se taper dessus” entre croyants et non-croyants ou de permettre à différentes religions de coexister parmi les athées. Non, la laïcité selon lui, c’est beaucoup plus que cela. Elle est comme “un temple vide” dont l’espace inoccupé ne serait pas synonyme de néant mais au contraire une sorte de vacuité féconde. Il voit dans l’idée française de laïcité une spiritualité qui pourrait être comparée au concept du “divin absent” des religions orientales et extrême-orientales comme par exemple le bouddhisme ou le taoïsme.

Published: June 2023

El proceso de reconstrucción de los orígenes de la disciplina de Relaciones Internacionales iniciado por un grupo de autores conocidos como ‘revisionistas’ (entre ellos: David Long, Peter Wilson, Lucian Ashworth, Brian Schmidt) a fines del siglo pasado ha arrojado interesantes y fructíferos resultados. Todos ellos ponen en tela de juicio lo que han dado en llamar, ‘la narrativa tradicional’ que ubica el nacimiento de nuestra disciplina al término de la Primera Guerra Mundial, con la instauración de la Cátedra Woodrow Wilson de Política Internacional en la Universidad de Aberystwyth, en el país de Gales del Reino Unido de la Gran Bretaña en 1919, gracias al generoso apoyo del Primer Barón David Davis y sus hermanas y cuestionan, sobre todo, la idea de la evolución disciplinaria de RI contada a través de sucesivos ‘debates’ que confrontan visiones contrastantes sobre lo que ocurre en el escenario internacional. Todos ellos han sido también particularmente críticos, especialmente del supuesto primer debate, entre los llamados idealistas y los realistas, con el que todavía hoy en día inician muchos cursos de teoría de las Relaciones Internacionales en diversas partes del mundo, pero que ellos perciben más como una ficción distorsionada, que como una real disputa académica sobre la mejor manera de interpretar lo que ocurre en el escenario internacional.

Assessing the efficacy of artistic natural emotional surgery for health risks management
Authors:   Asokore-Koforidua, S.D.A College of Education Ghana, Asenso Kennedy
Published: June 2023

Health risk has received global attention over the years following the socio-economic threats it continuously imposes on people’s livelihoods in both developed and developing countries. In Africa and Ghana to be specific, many continue to use Art as a therapy to manage their health risks though, only a little has been documented in terms of its efficacy. Based on interpretivist’s philosophy, this study employed a qualitative research approach with a descriptive design to assess the efficacy of artistic natural emotional surgery for health risks management in Ghana. In addition to obtrusive observation, personal interviews, and focus group discussions were conducted for respondents who were respectively selected through convenience (n=50) and homogenous purposive (n=10) sampling techniques. The study revealed that artistic natural emotional surgery phenomena are efficacious in releasing the stress of people after its assessment. It was, however, discovered that the potency of artistic emotional surgery has not received much attention it needed. The study, therefore, recommends that the emotional surgery inventor (R. G. Thompson) should collaborate with artists, art therapists, the Ministry of Health, and healthcare professionals to integrate artistic natural emotional surgery into existing treatment plans for various restorations, and accordingly, sensitise the general public about the potential benefits of artistic natural emotional surgery.
THE ROLE OF ENDOGENOUS FACTORS IN HYDROGENIC ORE FORMATION
Authors: Suschuk K.G. , Verkhovsev V.G. , Semenyuk N.P. , Tyshchenko Yu.E. , Zadorozhnyi D.B.
Published: June 2023

Processes in hydrogenic ore formation by groundwater and does not explicitly associated with the magmatism, possible participation of deep fluids and thermal solutions are of endogenous origin, which is the cause of non-equilibrium physico-chemical condition of the host rocks, mineralization of underground waters and their transformation into ore-forming solutions. The ore-bearing fluid has a predominantly aqueous composition. The behavior of hydrocarbons in hydrothermal solutions of vadose origin obeys the laws of joint solubility of H2O, CO2, CH4 and liquid bitumoids at various pressures and temperatures. Epiplatform activation of geotectonic structures of different ages and types that have a sedimentary cover leads to a combination of ore-forming processes in time and often in space caused by descending infiltration waters and ascending hydrothermal solutions. Such ore-forming processes on the territory of Ukraine can be traced in the Don-Dnipro structural-metallogenic zone and the Volyn-Podolsk metallogenic region. In the Don-Dnipro structural-metallogenic zone during the Cimmerian metallogenic epoch (late Triassic – early Cretaceous), fault zones and tectonically complicated salt-dome anticlines served as discharge centers for both ascending hydrothermal solutions and pressure infiltration waters. As a result, a group of polygenic deposits of uranium-bitumen-mercury composition was formed, including the Adamovskoye uranium-bitumen deposit and the Slavyanskoye mercury ore occurrence, located within the same structure. On the territory of the Volyn-Podilsky metallogenic region, Cimmerian-era ore occurrences are formed by ascending low-temperature carbon dioxide-hydrocarbon chloride solutions of deep (metamorphic or metagenetic) origin, which were diluted by underground meteor waters before the completion of ore formation. This led to the redistribution of uranium and associated ore elements during the lithogenesis of sedimentary rocks and regeneration during the late Paleozoic-early Mesozoic tectonic activation involving both exogenous and endogenous processes. The result was the formation of hydrothermal-regenerative uranium ore occurrences, which are characterized by their proximity to zones of discontinuous faults, veined-interspersed mineralization, its presence not only in sedimentary rocks, but also in zones of foundation fracturing, association of uranium minerals (coffinite, nasturane) with the release of solid black bitumen and ore occurrences of the barite-fluorite-polymetallic formation.

Authors: Kukovska T.S.
Published: June 2023

The accumulation of the Holocene sapropelic sediments may be closely associated with the processes of hydrocarbon degassing through the bottom of the Black Sea. It is an endogenous fluid dynamic carbon-hydrogen inflow, activation that occurs periodically and with varying intensity, which explains the breaks in the accumulation of organic matter, as well as changes lithotypes of sapropelic sediments in the Black Sea. Activation of the fluid-dynamic flow occurred periodically, which explains the breaks in the accumulation of organic matter in the Black Sea sediments.

MONUMENTS OF GEOLOGY IN THE KORSUN-SHEVCHENKIVSKY STATE HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL RESERVE
Authors: Vergelska N.V. , Kroshko Yu.V. , Ozirska S.M.
Published: June 2023

Geological monuments are natural and artificial outcrops that most vividly reflect the features of the geological structure of the territory. The attribution of objects on the territory of the State Historical and Cultural Reserve in Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi to geological monuments is determined by the possibility to study in detail the petrographic composition of granite varieties of Korsun-Novomyrhorod pluton - one of the two large intrusions of anorthosite-rapakivi-granite formation on the Ukrainian shield. Preservation of natural outcrops allows to observe the change of the state of anorthosite-rapakivi-granite complex under the influence of natural factors. The outcrops of these rocks, including in the form of islands, create a unique picturesque landscape of the valley of the river Ros.
ASSESSMENT OF ECOLOGICAL, PHYSICOCHEMICAL, TECHNICAL AND AESTHETIC PROPERTIES OF BASALT PAVING OF L’VIV AND HISTORY OF ITS USE
Authors: Tuzyak Ya.M.
Published: June 2023

“Underrated eternal paving stones of the city of L’viv” or “Where the paving stones end, L’viv ends there...” Paving stones are not only the usual street or road surface of cities. It has become an integral part of the city of L’viv and even its symbol. It is in paintings by artists, in poetry and prose works. L’viv paving stones already live their lives and it is inseparable from the environment. This is not just a symbol, but part of the city. It is impossible to separate these things. At the modern stage, paving can be considered as one of the historic properties that attract residents and guests of the city of L’viv. It has a long history, technical features (manufacture and laying) and, as it turned out, environmental properties.The article considers the history of basalt mining and the assessment of its environmental, physical and chemical, technical and aesthetic properties and the importance of urbanized space for paving streets in order to create a comfortable habitat. Unlike artificial analogues and less stable natural varieties, basalt paving does not change its physical, mechanical and aesthetic characteristics, it is below the generally recognized, most environmentally friendly, hard road surface for which is inherent: 1) extremely high mechanical strength – the first category in the M. M. Protodyakonov’s scale: extremely strong, dense and viscous rock; 2) a very low coefficient of thermal expansion and resistance to a wide range of fluctuations in daily, seasonal or annual temperatures; 3) almost complete absence of cavities and cracks, or their disjoint to each other; 4) maintenance of hundreds and thousands of cycles of freezing and defrosting; 5) absence of water-soluble minerals in mineral composition; 6) resistance to a wide range of aggressiveness of surface and underground waters; 7) environmentally friendly – characterization of the complete absence of toxic gas emanations and freshwater of the water extract; 8) radiation safety – inherent low contents of uranium and thorium (compared to granites), as well as a very low radiation background.

ASSESSMENT OF THE RISK TO THE HEALTH OF THE POPULATION FROM ATMOSPHERIC AIR POLLUTION DURING OPEN-PIT MINING OF NON-ORE MINERAL MINERALS
Authors: Malik T.А. , Diatel O.O. , Diachenko N.O.
Published: June 2023

A study was conducted to assess the risks to public health from atmospheric air pollution during open-pit mining of non-metallic minerals, and it was proposed to consider methods for assessing the impact of pollutants on public health. Risk calculations are offered non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic effects using the proposed methods. The risk of the development of non-carcinogenic effects is determined by calculating the hazard index (HI) and is compared with the criteria for assessing the non-carcinogenic risk. The hazard coefficients of pollutants were calculated according to the formula and the hazard indices of non-carcinogenic effects were determined with the combined effect (summation) of these pollutants on the health of the population. It was established that the hazard index HI = ΣHQi both overall and for groups of critical organs and systems does not exceed 1. Si concentrations (estimated average annual concentration of i-th substance at the boundary of residential buildings, mg/m3) do not exceed the MPC, less than one. Hazard ratio НQ < 1 (the risk of harmful effects is considered negligible) for all substances. The risk of the development of individual carcinogenic effects (ІСRі) from substances that have a carcinogenic effect was calculated, as well as the carcinogenic risk under the combined effect of several carcinogenic substances polluting the atmosphere (СRа) was calculated and compared with the classification of levels of carcinogenic risk. It has been established that the carcinogenic risk of benzo(a)pyrene during open pit mining corresponds to an acceptable level of risk. According to our calculations, it has been established that the risks of impact on the health of the population during open mining of non-metallic minerals will be insignificant.

Kabupaten Sambas merupakan sebuah kabupaten dengan penganut agama Islam terbanyak di Provinsi Kalimantan Barat. Islamic center memiliki fungsi yang lain yakni bisa sebagai tempat pendidikan agama Islam, sosial, ekonomi, maupun kebudayaan. Mengusung tema arsitektur neo-vernakular yakni salah satu konsep dari aliran postmodern. Neo-vernakular adalah gabungan dari dua konsep yang berbeda yaitu modern dan interpretasi dari arsitektur vernakular. Bangunan Islamic Center di Kabupaten Sambas yakni salah satu bangunan yang cocok menggunakan konsep neo-vernakular dikarenakan adanya budaya tradisional di daerah Kabupaten Sambas yang harus dijaga kelestariannya. Dengan adanya pandemi COVID-19, maka diberlakukannya protokol kesehatan serta adaptasi kebiasaan baru atau new normal. Menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif, di mana diharapkan dapat mendeskripsikan penerapan arsitektur neo-vernakular. Adapun menggunakan ciri-ciri arsitektur neo-vernakular sebagai cara menganalisis studi kasus dan menghasilkan suatu deskripsi yang berhubungan dengan tema yang akan dirancang. Tujuan dari proyek ini adalah menerapkan unsur neo-vernakular pada desainnya dimana menghasilkan bentukan baru/tidak monoton yang diaplikasikan pada bentuk atap kurva linier lancip keatas terinspirasi dari rumah adat Betang dan menginterpretasikan kejadian batu Hajar Aswad yang kainnya diangkat keatas oleh perwakilan suku di Kota Mekkah serta pada fasadnya kental akan unsur vernakularnya yang menyerupai kain songket khas Dayak.

Pada saat ini banyak arsitek yang hanya mengejar bentuk dan desain tanpa memperdulikan kondisi klimatologis pada lingkungan sekitar. Dengan laju pertumbuhan penduduk di Jakarta Utara yang semakin bertambah tiap tahunnya terutama kecamatan Cilincing yang merupakan kecamatan dengan penduduk terpadat yang ada di Kota Jakarta Utara menyebabkan cuaca semakin panas. Maka penelitian ini mengupas masalah bagaimana mendapatkan kenyamanan udara dalam bangunan melalui pendekatan arsitektur tropis. Penekanan adaptasi iklim tropis pada penelitian ini terhadap bukaan olahan fasad bangunan melalui penempatan dan besarnya bukaan. Olahan bukaan fasad tersebut dapat menghasilkan optimalisasi pengendalian udara secara alami tanpa menggunakan energi mekanis, sehingga menghemat energi listrik. Hal ini sangat cocok bagi kasus penelitian hunian rumah susun sewa (RUSUNAWA) Rorotan IX, Jakarta Utara dengan peruntukan menengah ke bawah. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kuantitatif, untuk melihat, meninjau, dan menggambarkan secara terukur objek yang diteliti seperti apa adanya dan menarik kesimpulan tentang hal tersebut sesuai fenomena yang tampak pada saat penelitian dilakukan. Hasil penelitian olahan bukaan fasad pada RUSUNAWA ini diperoleh bahwa pentingnya efektifitas penempatan daan besarnya bukaan akan mempengaruhi kenyamanan udara dalam bangunan. Diharapkan melalui penelitian ini dapat menjadi masukan penting dalam pemanfaatan bukaan fasad pada daerah tropis yang hemat energi dan tentunya bermanfaat bagi masyarakat menengah ke bawah.

Arsitektur Kolonial merupakan perpaduan arsitektur Barat dengan mengadaptasi unsur budaya timur di Nusantara sebelum masa kemerdekaan. Ketika Belanda menduduki Nusantara banyak perubahan yang terjadi dari system pemerintahan, perekonomian, dan merubah gaya arsitektur juga. Arsitektur kolonial ini dibawa oleh arsitek Belanda, hanya diperuntukkan untuk bangsa Belanda yang tinggal di Indonesia. Tersebar secara luas di seluruh Nusantara. Gedung Negara Keresidenan Cirebon merupakan salah satu bangunan peninggalan Belanda yang ada di Cirebon . Gedung Negara Keresidenan Cirebon adalah sebuah bangunan kolonial yang berada di jalan Siliwangi Kota Cirebon. Dibangun pada masa keresidenan Albert Wilhem Kinder De Camurecq sekitar tahun 1865. Dirancang oleh arsitek Belanda bernama Van Den Berg. Bangunan ini dahulu digunakan sebagai rumah dinas residen yang menjadi tempat beristirahat para petinggi Hindia Belanda. Bentuknya masih mempertahankan ciri khasnya yaitu bangunan dengan gaya arsitektur Indische Empire Style. Ini menjadi hal yang menarik, karena bentuk massa bangunan dan prinsip desain dari sudut pandang proporsi dan keseimbangan pada Façade depan menyampaikan makna secara tidak langsung. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui lebih dalam tentang proporsi dan keseimbangan fasad pada bangunan kolonial di Gedung Negara Cirebon. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian kulaitatif dengan melakukan pengamatan pada objek pengamatan, mengidentifikasi bangunan menyesuaikannya dengan teori yang berkaitan dengan prinsip desain proporsi dan keseimbangan, mengambil kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian yang diperoleh bahwa pada komposisi fasad memiliki proporsi dan keseimbangan bentuk massa dengan prinsip desain sesuai teori yang digunakan. Dalam fasad Keresidenan ini sudah menerapkan dua poin komposisi penyusun bentuk yang cukup baik dan sudah diterapkan pada bangunan yang sekarang

BMT Fluid Mechanics conducted a comprehensive flow study on the effectiveness of a pair of Tuned Liquid Column Dampers (TLCDs) aimed at mitigating wind-induced accelerations in a high-rise building. The study successfully combined Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) with physical model tests performed at the 6 degree-of-freedom shake table facility located at the Department of Civil Engineering of the University of Bristol. The original TLCD concept discussed in this work was proposed at the early design stages of a slender 42-storey high-end residential building located in the Middle East. On-site full-scale measurements and High Frequency Force Balance (HFFB) wind tunnel tests performed by BMT Fluid Mechanics showed that the highest occupied floors could experience excessive wind-induced motion. Depending on the inherent damping of the finished structure, this motion had the potential to exceed standard occupant comfort criteria. A new CFD methodology was developed to assess the performance of the TLCD design using the multi-phase Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) solver and dynamic mesh motion libraries available in the CFD software tool HELYX®. The damping effects introduced by the array of internal porous baffles in the TLCD were approximated using a Darcy-Forchheimer porosity model. Comparisons of free-decay damping performance between CFD results and shake table experiments for a 1:20 scale model of a 3 baffles’ TLCD configuration were found to be satisfactory for design purposes. The results for the amplitude of the net forces acting on the TLCD, as well as the frequency response measured using the free-decay logarithmic decrement approach, confirmed that the proposed CFD methodology provides an accurate representation of real operating conditions. The same CFD approach was successfully applied to model the full-scale TLCD device. With the introduction of a pair of identical purposely designed TLCDs, a 30% increase performance of the structural response of the 42-storey building to wind loading excitation was achieved.

Residential buildings and living conditions have greatly changed over the last two decades. In fact, with a few exceptions, current buildings are not the kind of habitats belonged to today. Due to the development of innovative materials, products and construction methods, the construction of environmentally friendly buildings with better economic efficiency seems essential. The present study seeks to provide simple and practical solutions to reduce energy consumption and develop comfort in residential buildings in cities influenced by hot climatic conditions. To this end, a 4-storey residential building in the city of Ahvaz, Iran, is simulated by Design Builder Software (which uses Energy plus engine) to investigate the impact of alternative roofing and facade materials, awning, windows, and others, on energy efficiency. The results show that using rockwool and aluminum composite panels (ACP) facade, pumice concrete roofing, double glazed windows, vertical awning of a 70 cm height, and a balcony of 50 cm depth are the best composition to thermal reinforcement for residential buildings and decrease energy consumption.
