Authors: Fauzan Slamet , Nugroho Purbo , Agustina Shinta , Moliani Ayuneng Indah
Published: February 2024

Samar Village was located in Pagerwojo District, Tulungagung Regency. The majority of residents in Samar Village focus in the livestock sector. The average cow waste produced 20 – 30 kg in one day. Handling of livestock waste needs to be done immediately so that waste accumulation does not have a negative impact on the surrounding environment. The problem is, the community does not have expert knowledge in processing the livestock waste produced. If left unchecked, it will cause a continuous and mounting buildup of livestock waste. Based on the problems faced by partners, the community service team collaborates with the village government to try to educate and empower the community in processing livestock waste into manure with high economic value. The method of implementing manure start from planning, implementing and evaluating the program which includes practical activities for making manure, testing the effectiveness of fertilizer and socializing the packaging and marketing of the products produced. This program also utilizes appropriate technology, namely a sieving machine that was recently handed over from the State University of Malang Service to Samar Village. Making this fertilizer requires a fermentation process mixed with an activator (EM4) and molasses (cane molasses) mixed evenly. In the process of making the fertilizer, it is closed tightly so that it is not exposed to air from outside and reopened within ± 2 weeks. The results of the effectiveness test by comparing plants given manure were proven to have benefits in increasing plant growth. This community empowerment program was successful because of the high enthusiasm of the community in efforts to increase community income and overcome the problem of livestock waste.

Innovative Synthesis of Drug-like Molecules Using Tetrazole as Core Building Blocks
Authors: Li Jingyao , Chandgude Ajay L , Zheng Qiang , Dömling Alexander
Published: February 2024

Tetrazole is widely utilized as a bioisostere for carboxylic acid in the field of medicinal chemistry and drug development, enhancing the drug-like characteristics of various molecules. Typically, tetrazoles are introduced from their nitrile precursors through late-stage functionalization. In this work, we propose a novel strategy involving the use of diversely protected, unprecedented tetrazole aldehydes as building blocks. This approach facilitates the incorporation of the tetrazole group into multicomponent reactions or other chemistries, aiding in the creation of a variety of complex, drug-like molecules. These innovative tetrazole building blocks are efficiently and directly synthesized using a Passerini three-component reaction (PT-3CR), employing cost-effective and readily available materials. We further showcased the versatility of these new tetrazole building blocks by integrating the tetrazole moiety into various multicomponent reactions (MCRs), which are already significantly employed in drug discovery. This technique represents a unique and complementary method to existing tetrazole synthesis processes. It aims to meet the growing demand for tetrazole-based compound libraries and novel scaffolds, which are challenging to synthesize through other methods.

New formula for peace: the system of global non-aggressive security
Authors: MARINICH Volodymyr , KURYLO Volodymyr , MYKLUSH Maryna , HOLUB Svitlana
Published: February 2024

The research sets out a formula for creating a new security system, which can be called the Global Non-Aggressive Security System (or GNASS). According to this formula, states, private companies, non-governmental organizations, and individuals can join the GNASS regardless of their location or place of business. At the same time, at the initial stage, the GNASS would consist of only three main elements. The first element is the Transit Territorial Security Policy, which is based on the following principles: an effective structure (based on an interstate corporation), effective transport security corridors (the SATTRON), and effective legal solutions. The second element implies the Non-Provocative Defense Policy, which is achieved by fulfilling the following conditions: the renunciation of all states from national military legislation and their accession to the UN Unified International Military Charter (which shall be developed); the reduction of the armed forces of all states through their refusal of military and other types of mobilization of people; the protection from prosecution and punishment of any individuals, private companies or non-governmental organizations that refuse to take part in hostilities. The third element is the Food Security Policy, which is based on the construction of the Underground Greenhouse-Bomb Shelter System (the SUGREBOS) to guarantee food for people both in peacetime and during military conflicts and natural disasters. According to the author, the development of a global security system based on the GNASS principle would eliminate military conflicts within several years, since the economic and security attractiveness of this system is so extreme that most states would agree to fulfill all the conditions for joining the GNASS.

Impact of Fiscal Policy Measures on the Control of Inflation in Nigeria
Authors: Nweze Ikenna Oji
Published: February 2024

Fiscal policy is one of the public sector tools used in the pursuit of these macro-economic goals. Fiscal policy could then be said to be an embodiment of all government plans aimed at achieving desired macro-economic goals, without directly altering the level of money supply. Nigeria, like most other Third World Countries, is committed to the achievement of a range of economic objectives such as high level of employment, rapid economic development, equitable distributions as well as reasonable price stability. However, the problem of rising prices has been particularly acute in recent years and has not responded to monetary and fiscal measures. In particular, it is becoming increasingly evident that we cannot count on maintaining the desirable level of economic development and simultaneously achieving reasonable price stability (Tomori, S., 1982). It is in realization of this fact that emphasis is on highlighting the various fiscal policy measures with respect to the problem of inflation. Furthermore, a sound study of the effects of various fiscal policy measures on the control of inflation is necessary in the bid to determine the appropriate policy mix required for dealing with the problem.

Published: February 2024

In order to establish whether there is a causal relationship between the financial sector development and economic growth during the sample period of 1990–2020, the article investigates the relationship between the development of the financial sector and economic growth in Nigeria.The Autoregressive Distributive Lag (ARDL) Model is used in this work to measure and a useful tool for determining whether there is long-term relationship between economic data series. The ARDL model can be used to predict and distinguish between short-term dynamics and long-term relationships. Tests like the long-run relationship are used to determine the data's stationarity characteristics and their long-term relationship & short-run tests, bounds tests, heteroskedasticity tests, serial correlation, and co-integration tests were used. Financial intermediaries(FINIM), financial depth(FINDEPT), and market stock(MKTSTCK) all have a causal relationship with the real gross domestic product(RGDP), according to the study. Economic growth is significantly impacted by the growth of the financial industry. The public and private sectors must be informed about operations in the financial industry. The World Bank's World Development Indicators (2020) database, which covered the years 1990 to 2020, and the Central Bank of Nigeria's Statistical Bulletin were the sources for all data.
Electricity Transmission Losses, Electricity Consumption, and Economic Growth in Ghana
Authors: Osei-Gyebi Samuel
Published: February 2024

An unsustainable power supply has dire consequences for every economy. Extant studies focused on the nexus of electricity consumption and economic growth to the neglect of electricity transmission losses (ETL). This paper argued that quantifying the effect of ETL on electricity consumption and understanding its implications on growth will incite actions to improve the electricity transmission system in Ghana. Using yearly data from 2000 to 2020 in an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model, the study concludes that ETL reduce the total amount of electric power consumed in Ghana by 34%. Again, a reduction in electricity consumption due to ETL reduces national income and Ghana’s growth at large. Factors including electricity price, exchange rate, and inflation also influenced electricity consumption and economic growth in Ghana. The study suggests massive improvement in its electricity transmission system to reduce electricity losses, increase electricity consumption, and enhance economic growth.

La infección por el virus de la hepatitis C (VHC) es una de las principales causas de enfermedad hepática crónica en el mundo 1,2. Con impacto variable, desde cambios mínimos hasta carcinoma hepatocelular (CHC)1.  Las infecciones agudas suelen ser asintomáticas y, en su mayor parte; no mortales. Aproximadamente un 30% de las personas infectadas elimina el virus espontáneamente en aproximadamente 6 meses, sin necesidad de tratamiento. El 70% restante (55-85%), la infección se cronifica y así sus riesgos1–3. Según datos de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) a junio del 2021 se estimaban 58 millones de personas con infección crónica por el VHC; con 1,5 millones de nuevas infecciones anuales2. Se calculó que en 2019 fallecieron cerca de 290 000 personas principalmente por cirrosis y CHC2. Su distribución geográfica varía, siendo mayor hacia el mediterráneo oriental y Europa con aproximadamente 12 millones de casos2. La transmisión es sanguínea; la mayoría por exposición a la sangre por prácticas de inyección o atenciones de salud poco seguras, transfusión de sangre sin analizar, drogas y prácticas sexuales 2–4. Los antivíricos pueden curar más del 95% de los casos, pero el acceso al diagnóstico y el tratamiento es limitado. En la actualidad no existe ninguna vacuna contra el VHC1–3. En nuestro país, se reportaron al Sistema Nacional de Vigilancia en Salud Pública (Sivigila) en el año 2020, 473 casos nuevos de infecciones por hepatitis C, equivalente a una incidencia cruda de 0,9 por 100.000 habitantes5,6. Existen reducidas publicaciones del tópico en la literatura latinoamericana, en Colombia falta investigación sobre grupos clave; como hombres que tienen sexo con otros hombres (HSH), usuarios de drogas inyectables y/o inhaladas, reclusos7.

Trotz zunehmender Verbreitung und Relevanz sind grundlegende Fragen zur wirtschaftlichen Berechtigung ungeklärt: Gibt es Verwandtschaften und Zu-sammenhänge zwischen verschiedenen Anwendungsfällen? Gibt es ein ein-heitliches Konzept? Wie ist wirtschaftliche Berechtigung rechtsdogmatisch einzuordnen? Um das zu klären, werden in dieser Dissertation die wichtigsten Konzepte wirtschaftlicher Berechtigung analysiert und auf inhaltliche, funktionale und strukturelle Gemeinsamkeiten hin untersucht, um eine Dogmatik der wirt-schaftlichen Berechtigung herauszuschälen. Es zeigt sich, dass es kein einheitliches Konzept wirtschaftlicher Berechtigung gibt. Die strukturellen und funktionalen Gemeinsamkeiten verdichten sich jedoch zu einer Rechtsfigur der wirtschaftlichen Berechtigung, aus der sich wichtige Erkenntnisse für Praxis und Gesetzgebung ergeben.
Locational patterns of warehousing facilities in the City of Cape Town municipality
Authors: Mokhele Masilonyane , Fisher-Holloway Brian
Published: February 2024

The proliferation of globalisation and e-commerce has led to an increasing number of warehousing facilities in cities and regions, which may contribute to the negative externalities of air pollution, noise pollution, and traffic congestion. Despite the close relationship between logistics and different sectors of the economy, there is a paucity of literature on the connection between warehousing and different land-use categories. Focusing on the City of Cape Town municipality in South Africa, the article aims to analyse the locational patterns of warehousing facilities relative to the transport infrastructure and the industrial, retail, and office land use. The study was based on a descriptive quantitative design wherein kernel density was employed in ArcGIS to analyse the locational patterns of warehousing facilities across the municipality. Data on the floor area of the industrial, retail, and office land use were classified into several ranges to ascertain the intensity of the land use relative to the concentration of the warehousing facilities. It was discovered that warehousing facilities cluster in the highly accessible areas within the municipality, namely the port’s environs, in the vicinity of the main junctions, and adjacent to arterial roads, which provide connections to the national roads. The areas with the highest concentration of warehousing facilities also accommodated the most significant percentage of industrial and retail land use.

Urban planning implementation is a crucial process of urban planning to improve, attain, and maintain urban sustainability globally. However, the implementation process for land use demarcated for various urban functions is being confronted by various challenges in the Global South. This study aims to integrate questionnaire surveys of urban and regional planning experts and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), in order to investigate the level of urban planning implementation of land use demarcated for various urban functions to support strategic actions for urban sustainability. Using Abuja, Nigeria, as a case study, an urban plan, urban impervious surface map, and questionnaire data were collected, and an integrated method analysis, including qualitative and quantitative (descriptive, Euclidean Distance Modelling, and Linear Regression Modelling) was deployed. Key findings show that the vast majority of experts in urban and regional planning perceive the implementation of all land use for various urban functions to be between moderate and very high levels, except that of industrial land use perceived to be between moderate and low levels. GIS findings show that, while land uses demarcated for transportation, commercial, educational, and institutional functions are positively and significantly associated with the urban impervious surface, industrial land use and urban green spaces are negatively associated. Findings show that abuse of official privileges by distorting master plans, political interference, compromise by public servants, and inadequate funding are key challenges for urban planning implementation on land use demarcated for various urban functions. The findings in this study are crucial for strategic decision makers in urban planning to improve the implementation process for various urban land-use functions and urban sustainability in the Global South, in general, and in sub-Saharan Africa, in particular.
Enkele Suid-Afrikaanse beplanningsvraagstukke / Some South African planning issues by Das Steÿn
Authors: Mocwagae Kgosi
Published: February 2024

South African planning issues are always a point of discussion considering the colonial and apartheid history of the country. There are different viewpoints on such planning issues, about which Steÿn writes from the position of an Afrikaner. The book is bilingual and consists of eight chapters (including introduction and reflection) on issues such as the influence of values of thinking; sound planning: wealth and poverty; confronting power to stop corruption; mercantilism and colonialism that have a grip on state capture; lessons from Afrikaners’ urbanisation and acquisition of political power, and different values to alternative approaches to the land debate in South Africa.

A CALCULATION METHOD FOR HIGH-SPEED RAILWAY CAPACITY BASED ON IMPROVED TRAIN DEDUCTION METHOD
Authors: Li Xiaojuan , Huo Yueying , Yan Zhenying
Published: February 2024

A reasonable calculation of railway capacity is very important for research. With the rapid development of high-speed railways, more and more differences between traditional and modern railways have emerged in the transportation organization and capacity calculation methods. In this article, the calculation methods used under different conditions with different train types are studied based on the train deduction method. Train deduction is a method that calculates the number of trains that cannot pass through the line when other trains change their stop plan or operation speed based on the coefficient of deduction method, which is widely used in China. Then, optimized models for trains with the same-speed and different-speeds are built to determine the maximum number of trains. These models are built based on the constraints of passenger service quality and overtaking times. In addition, the models are solved based on a train operation plan. Hence, the capacity calculated by these methods is more reasonable for the actual condition. Finally, an actual case of Beijing–Shanghai high-speed railway is implemented and tested with the model. The optimal capacity scheme is simulated and analysed, and the result agreed well with the railway transport enterprise.

The Red River Basin is located in the Indo-Burma biodiversity hotspot and is rich in lignicolous freshwater fungi, but no systematic research has been conducted. A systematic study on the species diversity of lignicolous freshwater fungi in the basin is ongoing. Seven distoseptispora-like specimens were collected from the Red River Basin in Yunnan. Phylogenetic analysis of ITS, LSU, tef1-α, and rpb2 genes and combined morphological data indicate that there are six distinct species of Distoseptispora, including two new species and four known species. Two new species were named D. suae and D. xinpingensis, and the four known species were D. bambusae, D. euseptata, D. obpyriformis and D. pachyconidia. This study provides detailed descriptions and illustrations of these six species and an updated phylogenetic backbone tree of Distoseptispora.

Published: February 2024

In high-speed cigarette manufacturing industries, occasional minor cosmetic cigarette defects and a scarcity of samples significantly hinder the rapid and accurate detection of defects. To tackle this challenge, we propose an enhanced single-shot multibox detector (SSD) model that uses variational Bayesian inference for improved detection of tiny defects given sporadic occurrences and limited samples. The enhanced SSD model incorporates a bounded intersection over union (BIoU) loss function to reduce sensitivity to minor deviations and uses exponential linear unit (ELU) and leaky rectified linear unit (ReLU) activation functions to mitigate vanishing gradients and neuron death in deep neural networks. Empirical results show that the enhanced SSD300 and SSD512 models increase the model's detection accuracy mean average precision (mAP) by up to 1.2% for small defects. Ablation studies further reveal that the model's mAP increases by 1.5%, which reduces the computational requirements by 5.92 GFLOPs. The model also shows improved inference in scenarios with limited samples, thus highlighting its effectiveness and applicability in high-speed, precision-oriented cigarette manufacturing industries.
