KEPASTIAN HUKUM TERHADAP PERSEROAN TERBATAS PASCA BERAKHIRNYA KEPAILITAN
Authors: Sumual Calvin Ulri Rompas , Yuhelson Yuhelson , Tondy Cicilia Julyani
Published: August 2024

This research aims to review and analyze the legal certainty of Limited Liability Companies (PT) after the end of bankruptcy, a condition in which the company is declared unable to fulfill its obligations to creditors in accordance with Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and Suspension of Debt Payment Obligations. Bankruptcy often brings complex legal consequences, both for the entity concerned and the creditors. In this context, legal certainty plays an important role to ensure that the legal rights of all parties involved are protected and respected. This research uses a normative juridical approach to evaluate how existing laws provide legal certainty for Limited Liability Companies after the end of bankruptcy. The findings in this study show that although there are fairly clear rules regarding the bankruptcy process, there are deficiencies in the regulations related to the restoration of the legal and operational status of Limited Liability Companies after bankruptcy is declared over. These deficiencies can lead to legal uncertainty, which has the potential to hamper the recovery and continuity of the Limited Liability Company's business, as well as pose a risk of further legal disputes. The results of this study indicate the need to strengthen the legal framework to ensure that after bankruptcy, Limited Liability Companies can resume operations with clear legal certainty. More detailed regulations and appropriate implementation guidelines are needed to ensure that Limited Liability Companies, as legal entities, have a solid foundation to continue their business activities without facing ongoing legal uncertainty. Thus, legal certainty becomes a key element in supporting post-bankruptcy business stability and sustainability

Authors: Yasmin Farhana , Alam Muhammad Zubayer , Alam A. K. M. Shamsul
Published: August 2024

Background & Objective: In rural Bangladesh, stunting and wasting in children aged one to five were a serious concern due to childhood malnutrition. The study examined the complicated variables that led to malnutrition, such as socioeconomic inequality, restricted access to healthcare, and inadequate nutrition education. The goals were to determine the determinants, evaluate the prevalence, and provide guidance for focused actions. Methods: Conducted in Pythia Upazila, Rajshahi, from August to October 2023, the community-based cross-sectional study focused on 510 children aged 1–5 years. Data collection involved anthropometric measurements, vaccination assessments, and a semi-structured questionnaire. Statistical analyses, employing logistic regressions and chi-square tests, were executed using SPSS and ENA for SMART software. Results: The study, involving 510 respondents with an average age of 35.90 months, revealed varied health indicators. Stunting prevalence was 16.1% severe, 24.7% marginal, 25.7% moderate, and 33.9% normal. Wasting prevalence showed 15.7% severe, 23.5% slight, 22.2% moderate, and 38.6% normal. Low birth weight increased the risk of stunting, while hospital delivery reduced it. Male gender raised the risk, and a 'rich-in-protein-diet' lowered it. For wasting, factors like age (24-35 months), gender, birth order (OR: 0.004), early weaning, and a 'rich-in-protein' diet (OR: 0.438) significantly impacted the results (p<.008, p<.000). Conclusion: This study provided important insights for interventions by illuminating the multifaceted causes that drove childhood malnutrition in rural Bangladesh. The intricate relationship between demographic and socioeconomic variables highlighted the necessity of focused interventions. The substantial correlations revealed, notably between stunting and gender, underlined the importance of diverse interventions to successfully combat malnutrition in this population.

This type of research is an empirical legal research using a case approach through observation, interviews and documentation instruments. The data analysis technique is descriptive using the Miles and Huberman model through three activity lines, namely data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results of this study indicate that: (1) There are two steps to getting fintech-based loan services on the SPinjam feature, namely activating the SPinjam feature and following the loan application procedure on the SPinjam feature. In practice, the SPinjam feature has set the smallest interest rate of 2.45%, administrative fees of up to 3%, and additional funding sanctions of Â± 5.0% of the remaining loan principal for late installment payments. Payments can be made through Indomaret outlets, Alfamart, Bank Transfers, and others. (2) Judging from the compilation of sharia economic law, the practice of fintech-based lending services on the SPinjam feature is not justified just because users both agree, because in its operation it applies an interest system that is prohibited in Islam.

Published: August 2024

Research findings on Mudharabah have an effect on sustainable economic development. Implications for Islamic financial policymakers and practitioners are important to promote sustainable economic growth. Future research recommendations on Mudharabah are also needed for better policy development. This research contributes significantly to the understanding and development of Mudharabah and sustainable economy. Mudharabah is a sharia financing mechanism based on fundamental principles that include the concepts of profit sharing, shared risk, and sharia compliance. The concept of profit sharing refers to the sharing of profits between investors and entrepreneurs based on prior agreements. Shared risk means that the risk is shared between the investor and the entrepreneur. While sharia compliance refers to the fulfillment of sharia principles in the implementation of Mudharabah, including prohibitions on usury, gharar, and maysir. Mudharabah also encourages sustainable and responsible business growth by motivating those who manage the business to carry out responsible practices, such as creating jobs, paying attention to workers' rights, and contributing to the environment. These practices help maintain economic stability and contribute to sustainable development. These challenges can be overcome through broader education and effective campaigns to increase public understanding of the benefits and mechanisms of Mudharabah. In addition, the opportunity also lies in the potential for economic growth that can be generated through the Mudharabah application. In practice, Mudharabah can encourage entrepreneurship, the growth of small and medium enterprises, and create new, sustainable jobs. By optimizing and overcoming existing challenges, the Mudharabah application can be an effective instrument in achieving sustainable economic development.

Suitability Mapping for Subsurface Floodwater Storage Schemes
Authors: Augustin Lea , Baumann Thomas
Published: August 2024

The hydrological conditions a changing climate imposes require updated measures to address extreme water events sustainably. These must evolve from isolated solutions, such as water retention basins, to holistic management strategies that consider at least two situations simultaneously, such as floods and droughts. One strategy for sustainable groundwater management is managed aquifer recharge (MAR), which copes with decreasing groundwater levels by a targeted recharge of aquifers. Using high water as a recharge water source (Flood-MAR) can additionally cover the aspect of flood protection, resulting in a multi-beneficial solution for the region. This study evaluated the site suitability for subsurface floodwater storage schemes, which must focus more on assessing the existing aquifer characteristics and the specific flood dynamics in nearby rivers compared to known MAR schemes. Potential sites for underground flood storage are characterized by decreasing groundwater levels and, thus, frequent water scarcity, combined with eminent risks of flooding by a nearby river. Suitability, on the other hand, must take the aquifer, surface, and water source characteristics into account. In this study, we present a workflow for generating suitability maps for implementing subsurface floodwater storage systems with a geographic information system-based multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA). The workflow was intentionally and exclusively based on publicly available data, was implemented in Python, and provided as open-source software. The resulting suitability maps spatially depict the feasibility of underground flood storage, and thus form the basis for the implementation planning of such projects. The approach was demonstrated for the administrative district of Swabia, Germany, where approximately 35% of the area was identified as suitable at varying levels. A sensitivity analysis of the assigned weights was applied to show the high robustness of the underlying data. The results highlighted the enormous potential of implementing such sustainable co-management schemes, which needs to be further concretized by on-site observations.
Wet and dry cup test with hygroscopic materials: what do we really measure?
Authors: Zou Yuliang , Moss Elea , Brochard Laurent , Coussot Philippe
Published: August 2024

Wet and dry cup tests are widely used to characterize the vapor permeability (or the apparent vapor diffusion coefficient) of construction materials. From a theoretical approach, we examined the transport characteristics of such tests in detail. We precisely quantified the impact of the boundary conditions on the apparent diffusion coefficient and the time required to reach steady-state conditions, which is critical for accurate estimation of this coefficient. Finally, a major point concerns the physical meaning of the value measured through this type of test. For a homogeneous non-hygroscopic medium, the diffusion coefficient obtained represents the diffusion coefficient of vapor through the medium. For hygroscopic materials, where vapor diffusion, bound water diffusion, and sorption or desorption processes may be encountered, we demonstrate that the total water transport diffusion coefficient in the medium is strongly different from, yet proportional to, the apparent vapor diffusion coefficient. We validated and illustrated this analysis based on experiments with cellulose fiber stacks of different porosities and under different experimental conditions.
Hybrid mixture theory-based modeling of unsaturated transport in a deforming porous food matrix during frying
Authors: Shah Yash , Takhar Pawan
Published: August 2024

Physics-based modeling of deep fat frying is daunting given the intricacies involved in the transport of different phases (liquid water, gas, and oil) in a continuously deforming unsaturated porous matrix. To simplify model development, previous models for frying either ignored volume changes or used empirical relations. The model developed in this study solved the hybrid mixture theory-based unsaturated transport equations and mechanistically accounted for the volume changes of the porous food (potato) matrix. Pore pressure, the effective pressure on pore walls, was used as the driving force governing the volume changes. A good agreement was found between the model predictions and experimental results. The % mean absolute error for moisture content, oil content, and temperature is 5.57%, 22.42%, and 13.35%, respectively. Evaporation and gas expansion during frying led to high pressures in the porous matrix with a peak gauge pore pressure of approximately 19.16 kPa at the center of the sample. The high pressure restricted the frying oil from penetrating beyond the surface layers. Oil uptake mainly occurred during the early stages of frying (t<50 s) when the pressure in the core was low, and towards the end of frying when the matrix was more susceptible to oil penetration because of decreasing pressure. The potato cylinder shrunk by 18.55% for a frying time of 300 s. The gauge pore pressure near the surface became negative, which led to the rapid contraction of the surface layers, and as a result, the porosity near the surface decreased. The average porosity was predicted to decrease by 5.06% after 300 s of frying. The evaporation zone expanded with frying time, and its peak progressively moved towards the core. The insights generated from the discussed mechanisms will guide the industry in optimizing frying techniques.

Published: August 2024

Classic work of capillarity in porous media was first reported by soil scientists and hydrologists over 100 years ago. Since then, the discipline has expanded significantly and includes diverse applications. Producing and optimizing subsurface petroleum reservoirs are one such application that have been the focus of much research and discovery for the past century while geological storage of carbon and hydrogen are emerging applications. The Wettability Symposium is a premier international meeting that has gathered a community of scientists and engineers interested in the affinity of fluids for surfaces in porous media. With a few exceptions, the Wettability Symposium has been held every two years since 1990. Even though the meeting has traditionally focused on petroleum systems, there is awareness in the community of the significance of wettability in various applications, including subsurface systems for carbon and energy storage contributing to the transition to low carbon intensity and net-zero energy systems of the future. This paper provides a brief history of the meeting, held October 2023 in Laramie, Wyoming, along with a summary of the discussions, identified gaps, and future perspectives.

Introduction: Population aging predicted for the coming years, although it represents an improvement in access to health goods and services, may reflect changes in the family system and does not necessarily represent active aging among elderly people. Objective: To systematize the knowledge produced about family relationships and the functional capacity of elderly people when performing activities of daily living. Method: Integrative Literature Review (IR) carried out in the Portal de Periódicos Capes/MEC (Ministry of Education and Culture) databases; Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), in the open access digital library/database of the Autonomous University of the State of Mexico Sistema de Información Científica Network of Scientific Journals (Redalyc) and Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS) between January 2012 and July 2022. The following were used as Descriptors in Health Sciences (DeCS)/Medical Subject Heading (MeSh): “Family relationship AND aged AND activities of daily living”. Results: Ten studies were selected in which they showed independence for Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) related to good family functionality. Very elderly women had better family functionality and worse functional capacity. Final considerations: Family functionality is interrelated to the functional capacity of the elderly person. These dimensions need to be considered together in the context of comprehensive care for this exponentially growing population group.

Published: August 2024

Modern human being is technology dependent social entity. An increased trend in technological development renders genesis of “Waste of Electronic and Electrical Equipment (WEEE)” popular by the name of e-waste by indiscriminate use of power tools as a result of population explosion. Power purchasing mentality of technology minded human population are surprisingly enhancing WEEE production rate. Result of overuse of electronic goods may become hazardous to the nature and environment. The present study deals with the progress of research and developmental activity about e-waste and its problems and prospects in future population and environment. The study is based on a literature survey of base line information and primary data about e-waste and its effects on environment. With the advancement of online network system, electronic web products are used frequently by the society dwellers and make our society as a dumping pool of unused or damaged electronic gadgets. India, as a developing country should go through a limitations or prohibition of over exposure of electronic goods and should generate legislative limitation in over production of e-waste and public awareness development programme to save the environment from its hazards. Considering the background analysis and reviews it is obvious that the problems and challenges of e-waste in India still persist. The study recommends that the processes of e-waste management in the majority of the examined areas still need improvement.

Ocimum basilicum, belongs to the family Lamiaceae is commercially cultivated as a condiment i.e., for the production of essential oil. Other medicinal uses are to treat vomiting, diarrhea, various pains, and intestinal colic, improve kidney function and hyperl ipidemia. The Ocymum basilicum L. has neuro-protective, antioxidant, vasodilator, anti-inflammatory and hepato-protective effects. In the present day concern due to shortage of land availability people are more interested towards soilless cultivation. So pot experiment along with different soil and soilless treatment i.e., compost, cow dung, acidified manure, bagasse and rice husk, each having five replicates, at different ratio, was conducted in randomized complete block design (RCBD). The main objective of the study was to observe the growth behavior of Ocimum basilicum with different treatments. According to the results, all treatments such as cow dung (CD), compost (CP), acidified manure (AM), bagasse (BG), rice husk (RH) showed positive effects on root and shoot length of plants. The study revealed that in the prevailing climatic condition of Dera Gazi Khan, Punjab, Pakistan, it is possible to obtain a high yield of basil herb using an organic farming system. The study suggested that organic fertilizers should be the best alternative of synthetic or inorganic fertilizers. The study explored that the basil plants respond with all their growth parameters as better in treatments with organic materials like cow dung, composts, manure etc. So the experiments must raise the appeal to avoid the inorganic fertilizers for the protection of soil fertility and survival of cultivated plants.
The Earth through time, the key of biological diversity
Authors: Banerjee Ruma
Published: August 2024

Controversy arises with the passage of time by the development of intellect and critical thoughts on the discovery of the theories of the Earth’s origin from primitive to modern hypotheses. The scientists explore the geological history of the Earth by chronostatigraphy or time based monitoring of rock record through geological time scale. Since the evidence is currently insufficient, scientists will need to make more advancement in the study of the origin and evolution of early life. The primitive unicellular organisms existed in an atmosphere made up of gases like methane and ammonia that was not breathable. Life emerged from non-living stuff more than a billion years after the Earth's formation. The idea that all creatures and people evolved over millions of years from one sort into another is a common one today. Abiogenesis is the complex natural process of the origin of life on the habitable Earth by synthesis in the same geological time scale. On the other hand, biological evolution is the successive inheritance of genetic features favoured by natural selection that gives birth of diversity and variation in molecular structures of the Earth’s habitat. Biological diversity is driven by evolutionary mechanisms that results in origin of new species along with sustainability and susceptibility. Human beings along with all other living beings share common resources and common ancestor through the evolutionary tree.
