DINAMIKA PENGELOLAAN KEUANGAN BUMN PERIHAL “DILEMA” ANTARA KERUGIAN NEGARA ATAUKAH KERUGIAN BISNIS
Authors: Dahoklory Viktoris
Published: December 2020

Kehadiran “Badan Usaha Milik Negara” dalam sistem ketatanegaraan ini, sebagai perpanjangan tangan atau alat negara untuk merealisasikan tujuan bernegara, namun dalam perjalanannya terdapat masalah serius dalam pengelolaan asset perusahaan, hal itu disebabkan karena terdapat perbedaan regulasi antar undang-undang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami konsep keuangan “badan usaha milik negara” beserta kerugiannya serta bentuk pengawasan terhadap “BUMN”. Metode Penelitian bersifat normatif yakni dengan menggunakan pendekataan perundang-undangan dan pendekatan konseptual untuk menganalisis isu yang hendak dikaji. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa segala asset “BUMN” merupakan asset negara, oleh karena itu segala kerugian “BUMN” termasuk kerugian negara, namun telah terjadi pergeseran paradigma pengelolaan “BUMN” menjadi “Bussines Judgement Rule” sehingga kerugian “BUMN” harus dianggap sebagai resiko kerugian berbisnis. Untuk itu, kedepannya perlu dibangun satu sistem pengawasan terpadu yang lebih efektif untuk mencegah praktik “Mafia BUMN”.

Learning a foreign language, in this case English, usually means learning to speak in that language while understanding it. Therefore, language learning always involves two elements, namely comprehension and production. Both elements are closely related to the study of language learning performance, especially in foreign language learning. Related to that, a quantitative research was conducted over 33 learners of English in order to find out the extent to which the learners understood the structure of simple English sentences related to their ability to produce English sentences. Research data was obtained through 2 kinds of tests. The data about comprehension was in the form of true or false cloze-test of totaling 50 simple sentences with the argument structures. While the data of production was in the form of written tests of simple sentence constructions based on pictures and instructions about the pictures. Both of the tests used a number of verbs most commonly remembered by the students of English Department, Darma Persada University. The result of the research showed that their comprehension level was 65.64% with a variation in the distribution score between them was 8.79, and their production was 28.36% with a standard deviation of production of 17.37. The gap between the level of comprehension and the level of production was relatively large which means that the average production competency of the subjects was below their comprehension competency.

Authors: Velicko Ademir José , Amrginski Rafael Luis , Hemkemeier Marcelo
Published: December 2020

Os produtos têxteis são indispensáveis no cotidiano, estando presentes em diversos formatos e características. No entanto, a indústria têxtil é o segundo maior poluente do mundo devido as poucas técnicas de reutilização e reciclagem que acarretam grandes impactos ambientais. Dados mostram que a reciclagem dos resíduos têxteis não chega a 25% do que é gerado, assim, produzindo cerca de 1,2 bilhões de toneladas de emissões de gases de efeito estufa por ano. A reciclagem dos resíduos têxteis é considerada de grande necessidade e viabilidade na concretização do conceito de economia circular, porém é desafiadora, especialmente porque estes resíduos geralmente são misturados com outras fibras. Neste sentido, o presente trabalho apresenta o conceito de economia circular relacionado a indústria têxtil e as formas de reciclagem de tecidos, visando a redução dos impactos ambientais. A economia circular, apresenta um modelo capaz de desvincular o crescimento econômico da geração de resíduos, transformando-os em novos produtos e materiais com a máxima eficiência objetivando chegar a um modelo econômico com desperdício zero, imprescindível para alcançar um crescimento sustentável. A transição para uma economia circular deve começar com a prevenção de resíduos e a minimização dos resíduos depositados em aterro e finalmente a implantação de processos de reciclagem. Os diferentes processos de reciclagens se apresentaram como promissores no sentido de contribuir de forma significativa com a economia circular. As principais tecnologias de reciclagem, de resíduos têxteis, compreendem o processo de moldagem por compressão a quente, o processo de reciclagem mecânica e o processo de reciclagem química.

Published: December 2020

Based on two models of laminated shells, free low frequency vibrations of a three-layered cylindrical panel with the internal layer fabricated of an electrorheological composite are studied. Both models lead to the same governing equations accounting for shears in layers, but differ in equations for calculating the reduced shear parameter which depends on the electric field strength and the temperature of a composite. In the case of a simple support of all edges, the formula for the complex natural frequency is obtained explicitly. The influence of the electric field strength and the temperature of the electrorheological composite on the lowest natural frequencies and associated vibration decrements is investigated. It was detected that both models give very close results for the heated composite at an electric field strength of more than 1.5 kV/mm. It is also shown that the frequency of natural vibrations of the electrorheological panel is a monotonically increasing function of the electric field strength, while the decrement – strength curve shows the presence of a local maximum corresponding to the best damping of viscoelastic vibrations.

Published: December 2020

We study the influence of N extended heat sources at external boundaries on the nonaxisymmetric temperature distribution on profiled polar-orthotropic ring plates and take into account heat exchange with the external environment. The solution of the stationary heat conduction problem for anisotropic annular plates of a random profile is resolved through the solution of the corresponding Volterra integral equation of the second kind. The formula of a temperature calculations in anisotropic annular plates of an random profile is given. The exact solution of stationary heat conductivity problem for a reverse conical polar-orthotropic ring plate is recorded. The temperature distribution in such anisotropic plate from N extended heat sources at its outer border is more complex than in the case of temperature distribution from N point heat sources at their external border.

Published: December 2020

The publication presents the results of a study devoted to the study of images of Russian protest political figures in the representation of young people. In the course of an empirical study conducted in the spring of 2020, students of higher educational institutions in Vladivostok and St. Petersburg were interviewed. Both the leaders of the liberal non-system opposition (A. Navalny and L. Sobol) and the leader of the Communist party of Russia G. Zyuganov were taken as objects. We used the method of semantic differential (SD), factorization of data by the principal component method, as well as the method of free associative experiment. The categorical structure of the semantic space of ideas about protest political leaders was determined. The General categories identified on the basis of factorization of SD data include such axes of evaluating political leaders as “intellectual and leadership qualities”, “aggressiveness”, “hypocrisy and corruption”, and “honesty and kindness”. These categories reflect the structure of young people's political thinking. Based on these semantic universals, the images of Russian protest leaders were reconstructed and their main characteristics in the representation of young people were revealed. Analysis of the results showed the presence of many common structural components in the political consciousness of young people in different cities of Russia. Young people use roughly the same basic categories for evaluating political leaders. The images of protest leaders in the representation of the youth of the two cities also turned out to be almost identical. The results of the study can be useful for researchers, political forces, political and civil leaders.

Published: December 2020

The purpose of the research. The research is aimed at identifying specific features of the process through which stereotypes influencing the image of the authority as perceived by the society, in particular, by the legal community, are formed and manifest themselves. The Mass Media play an essential role in fixing and multiplying the stereotypes that people have about state bodies and key directions of their activity. The authors have undertaken to specify and illustrate unintentional negativization of the authority's image deriving from neutral informative publications in the Mass Media as a result of frequent use of words naming negative and undesirable aspects of the state bodies and structures' activity. The research that has been based on Mass Media publications has focused mainly on verbal representation of the already formed stereotypes and relied heavily on the results of the association experiment with the involvement of legal community members. According to the authors, identifying patterns of how negative stereotypes of the authority at large and its specific bodies and structures are formed may lay the foundation for further solutions aimed at neutralizing the Mass Media's negative effect. Conclusions. The results of the research lead to the conclusion that in some cases ordinary consciousness reflects unintentional negativization of the authority's image as a result of frequent use of words verbalizing negative and undesirable aspects of the state bodies and structures' activity. It is deemed rational to further develop strategies meant to minimize and neutralize the Mass Media's damaging effect taking into account the results of the research. It is regarded desirable to work out recommendations for higher education syllabus that would help counterbalance possible negative influence through strengthening students' trust to the authority. The methodology and method of the research. The commonly accepted dialectical method of studying societal processes and social and legal phenomena as well as their interconnection and interdependence has been used as the methodological basis for the research aimed at determining the ways through which stereotypes that influence the image of the authority come into existence. Alongside the dialectical method, the following private scientific methods have been applied: the formal logical method helping to study the notion, essence and significance of the negative stereotypes; association experiment based on a social research and carried out in the form of an interview that has helped to reveal reactions to the stimulus word; content analysis of the Mass Media materials.

Published: December 2020

An increasing number of types of spatial data is possible to display and operate using only technical means of web services and a standard browser, without the need to install GIS or CAD systems. One of these types of data is data obtained with using active methods of remote sensing (as a rule, they are point clouds), full-fledged work with which 3–4 years ago was possible only on high-performance computers and specialized software. The existing web technologies allow not only displaying point clouds, but also interactively interacting with them - to perform measurements, customize display styles, combine with spatial data of other types. The purpose of the article is to form criteria and analyze the performance of software tools for creating web services for visualizing data obtained with using active methods of remote sensing. For practical testing of the selected software and analysis according to the formulated system of criteria groups, several files containing point clouds from open sources were used. The research was carried out with using the software libraries Three.js, Deck.gl, Plas.io, Potree, CesiumJS and Blend4Web. Based on the testing results, summary tables of performance and functionality were formed. The obtained results demonstrate that in terms of performance, visualization tools, basic functions for designing and analyzing point clouds, modern web services are not inferior to specialized desktop software.

Published: December 2020

It is generally accepted that the accuracy of the geometric characteristics of structural elements is one of the key indicators of construction features. GOST 21778-81 states that the necessary means and principles of technological accuracy are used in the production of the design of structures. The accuracy of building elements according to geometric characteristics depends on inaccuracies in the manufacture of parts, geodetic alignment and construction works. From this it follows that the indicators for the accuracy of geometric characteristics and the reliability of building systems for the purpose are interconnected. The reliability factors of building systems for the intended purpose depend on the level of responsibility of buildings and structures. Therefore, the purpose of our work is to justify the purpose of the accuracy of geodetic works in the construction of steel tanks, taking into account the level of their responsibility. Conducting research by many authors indicate that the distribution of errors in the sizes and positions of the structure of components is subject to the normal distribution law. It is proved that elementary errors in the position of the order of components and nodes are summed up. The value of the reliability factors for the accuracy of the geometric parameters of the building structures of steel tanks is not yet sufficiently substantiated. Tolerances for geometric parameters in the construction of steel tanks are proposed to be assigned taking into account the indicators of their reliability in terms of responsibility. The substantiation of the accuracy standards (mean square deviations) for the geodetic support of the construction of steel tanks was carried out taking into account the class of construction and reliability indicators of their building structures in terms of responsibility.
The Usefulness of Therapeutic Jurisprudence for Re-thinking Babies in Prison
Authors: Crewe Helen
Published: December 2020

International human rights state that imprisonment for mothers with babies should be used as a last resort. Currently, there is no international agreement for the age limit of children in prison and a lack of consistency with the treatment of this minority population. This article is significant in its advocacy of using a theoretical approach that emphasises the benefits of using legislation, including international human rights frameworks. The premise of Therapeutic Jurisprudence (TJ) is that law influences emotional life and psychological well-being (Winick & Wexler, 2003). Significantly, the duty bearers of the Bangkok Rules (2010) include individuals from non-governmental organisations, local communities and the voluntary sector. This article examines the role of activists who represent the rights of women, practitioners who work in prisons and other potential stakeholders. Moreover it recognises the reality for creating a rights respecting culture in prisons across the globe is complex for babies in prison.
Does Village Deliberation Forum Effect on The Quality of Road Infrastructure Inter-Village?
Authors: Setyawan Fery Tri , Adrison Vid
Published: December 2020

Decentralization is expected to improve the provision of public infrastructure by bringing local government closer and more responsive to the community needs. However, based on the theory, decentralization can lead to principal agent problems due to the presence of asymmetric information. Local government potentially want to prioritize their needs more than the needs of the resident. One proposed scheme to mitigate this problem is through participatory government. This study attempts to estimate the impact of decentralization on the provision of the public infrastructure, especially community participation through village deliberation forum on the provision of inter-village road infrastructure in Indonesia. Using a logit estimation approach, this study analyzes the impact of implementing village deliberation forum on the quality of inter-village roads in Indonesia in 2018. The estimation results show that the implementation of village deliberation forum has a positive effect on the probability that the village have good road quality. Thus, this study supports previous researches on the positive impact of public participation on the quality of public infrastructure.

Published: December 2020

Hollow organs and tissue systems drive various functions in the body. Many of these hollow or tubular systems, such as vasculature, the intestines, and the trachea, are common targets for tissue engineering, given their relevance to numerous diseases and body functions. As the field of tissue engineering has developed, numerous benchtop models have been produced as platforms for basic science and drug testing. Production of tubular scaffolds for different tissue engineering applications possesses many commonalities, such as the necessity for producing an intact tubular opening and for formation of semi-permeable epithelia or endothelia. As such, the field has converged on a series of manufacturing techniques for producing these structures. In this review, we discuss some of the most common tissue engineered applications within the context of tubular tissues and the methods by which these structures can be produced. We provide an overview of the general structure and anatomy for these tissue systems along with a series of general design criteria for tubular tissue engineering. We categorize methods for manufacturing tubular scaffolds as follows: casting, electrospinning, rolling, 3D printing, and decellularization. We discuss state-of-the-art models within the context of vascular, intestinal, and tracheal tissue engineering. Finally, we conclude with a discussion of the future for these fields.
Recent Progress on Chemical Production From Non-food Renewable Feedstocks Using Corynebacterium glutamicum
Authors: Zhang Bin , Jiang Yan , Li Zhimin , Wang Fei , Wu Xiao-Yu
Published: December 2020

Due to the non-renewable nature of fossil fuels, microbial fermentation is considered a sustainable approach for chemical production using glucose, xylose, menthol, and other complex carbon sources represented by lignocellulosic biomass. Among these, xylose, methanol, arabinose, glycerol, and other alternative feedstocks have been identified as superior non-food sustainable carbon substrates that can be effectively developed for microbe-based bioproduction. Corynebacterium glutamicum is a model gram-positive bacterium that has been extensively engineered to produce amino acids and other chemicals. Recently, in order to reduce production costs and avoid competition for human food, C. glutamicum has also been engineered to broaden its substrate spectrum. Strengthening endogenous metabolic pathways or assembling heterologous ones enables C. glutamicum to rapidly catabolize a multitude of carbon sources. This review summarizes recent progress in metabolic engineering of C. glutamicum toward a broad substrate spectrum and diverse chemical production. In particularly, utilization of lignocellulosic biomass-derived complex hybrid carbon source represents the futural direction for non-food renewable feedstocks was discussed.
An Essential Requirement for Fgf10 in Pinna Extension Sheds Light on Auricle Defects in LADD Syndrome
Authors: Zhang Yang , Fons Juan M. , Hajihosseini Mohammad K. , Zhang Tianyu , Tucker Abigail S.
Published: December 2020

The pinna (or auricle) is part of the external ear, acting to capture and funnel sound toward the middle ear. The pinna is defective in a number of craniofacial syndromes, including Lacrimo-auriculo-dento-digital (LADD) syndrome, which is caused by mutations inFGF10or its receptorFGFR2b. Here we study pinna defects in theFgf10knockout mouse. We show that Fgf10 is expressed in both the muscles and forming cartilage of the developing external ear, with loss of signaling leading to a failure in the normal extension of the pinna over the ear canal. Conditional knockout ofFgf10in the neural crest fails to recapitulate this phenotype, suggesting that the defect is due to loss ofFgf10from the muscles, or that this source ofFgf10can compensate for loss in the forming cartilage. The defect in theFgf10null mouse is driven by a reduction in proliferation, rather than an increase in cell death, which can be partially phenocopied by inhibiting cell proliferation in explant culture. Overall, we highlight the mechanisms that could lead to the phenotype observed in LADD syndrome patients and potentially explain the formation of similar low-set and cup shaped ears observed in other syndromes.
Solving Coupled Cluster Equations by the Newton Krylov Method
Authors: Yang Chao , Brabec Jiri , Veis Libor , Williams-Young David B. , Kowalski Karol
Published: December 2020

We describe using the Newton Krylov method to solve the coupled cluster equation. The method uses a Krylov iterative method to compute the Newton correction to the approximate coupled cluster amplitude. The multiplication of the Jacobian with a vector, which is required in each step of a Krylov iterative method such as the Generalized Minimum Residual (GMRES) method, is carried out through a finite difference approximation, and requires an additional residual evaluation. The overall cost of the method is determined by the sum of the inner Krylov and outer Newton iterations. We discuss the termination criterion used for the inner iteration and show how to apply pre-conditioners to accelerate convergence. We will also examine the use of regularization technique to improve the stability of convergence and compare the method with the widely used direct inversion of iterative subspace (DIIS) methods through numerical examples.

Published: December 2020

Addressing mental health challenges in humanitarian settings, where needs are many and resources are scarce, requires innovative solutions. In this manuscript, we describe a quantum complexity informed intervention, Communication for Whole Health (CWH), developed at the request of a large Jordanian healthcare NGO to address mental health needs of patients and staff. In the humanitarian aid context, this health domain is referred to by the acronym MHPSS (mental health and psychosocial support). The focus of this participatory action research project, presented here as a case study, was the collaborative elaboration of an MHPSS intervention in an urban primary healthcare clinic serving mostly Syrian refugees. The intervention capitalizes on the synergistic effects generated from the systemic nature of communication where every interaction is an intervention, and the health implications of research demonstrating communication is bioactive. Rather than treating mental health as an add-on medical specialty targeting patients with “psychiatric disorders,” systemic MHPSS starts from the premise that everyone has mental health, which is inextricably linked to physical and social health. Emphasis is on integrating awareness of mental health as part of whole health and taking advantage of every interaction to facilitate well-being for patients and staff. The intervention facilitated the transformation of the communication ecology of the clinic from a culture of reactivity to a culture of receptivity by strengthening communication resources and practices. Staff reported feeling more empowered to help patients and displayed increased motivation to find innovative ways to use available resources. They felt better equipped to manage their own stress response and support coworkers. Patients learned basic stress management skills, helping them better manage chronic health conditions, and reported sharing this information with family members. Staff reported many examples of patients responding positively to interventions to reduce patient reactivity, leading to beneficial behavior change and improved health outcomes. Results suggest a systemic MHPSS approach can contribute to ameliorating health inequities by expanding resources for patients and staff, empowering them to act into their current circumstances to support whole health. The CWH approach has potential in similar contexts to address mental health needs in a cost-effective and impactful way.

Circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) are recognized as biomarkers and effectors of endothelial dysfunction, the initiating step of cardiovascular abnormalities. Among these EVs, microparticles (MPs) are vesicles directly released from the cytoplasmic membrane of activated cells. MPs were shown to induce endothelial dysfunction through the activation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. However, it is not known whether ER stress can lead to MPs release from endothelial cells and what biological messages are carried by these MPs. Therefore, we aimed to assess the impact of ER stress on MPs shedding from endothelial cells, and to investigate their effects on endothelial cell function. EA.hy926 endothelial cells or human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated for 24 h with ER stress inducers, thapsigargin or dithiothreitol (DTT), in the presence or absence of 4-Phenylbutyric acid (PBA), a chemical chaperone to inhibit ER stress. Then, MPs were isolated and used to treat cells (10–20 μg/mL) for 24–48 h before assessing ER stress response, angiogenic capacity, nitric oxide (NO) release, autophagy and apoptosis. ER stress (thapsigargin or DDT)-generated MPs did not differ quantitatively from controls; however, they carried deleterious messages for endothelial function. Exposure of endothelial cells to ER stress-generated MPs increased mRNA and protein expression of key ER stress markers, indicating a vicious circle activation of ER stress. ER stress (thapsigargin)-generated MPs impaired the angiogenic capacity of HUVECs and reduced NO release, indicating an impaired endothelial function. While ER stress (thapsigargin)-generated MPs altered the release of inflammatory cytokines, they did not, however, affect autophagy or apoptosis in HUVECs. This work enhances the general understanding of the deleterious effects carried out by MPs in medical conditions where ER stress is sustainably activated such as diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

Hybridization of two different species is an important mechanism to have gene flows between species. Recently, mating of two economically important invasive species of subterranean termites (Coptotermes formosanusandCoptotermes gestroi) have been observed in the field and hybrids colonies have been established in the laboratory. It was previously reported that incipient colonies (~1 year old) of hybridCoptotermesspecies contained more termites than colonies of parental species, showing hybrid vigor. In this study, colony vigor and individual termite vigor were investigated in juvenile colonies (~2 year old), using colony growth parameters and the movement activity of individual termites as proxies for the evaluation of hybrid vigor beyond the initial colony foundation. After 2 years from colony foundations, hybrid colonies showed no more hybrid vigor. In addition, movement activity of termites in hybrid colonies was significantly slower than in termites from conspecific colonies. It is suggested that a reduction in the molting rates of individuals in hybrid colonies may have a negative impact on their physiology and their movement activity. These possible changes in physiology may affect the movement of individuals, and accumulation of these inefficient termites in hybrid colonies may contribute to the loss of hybrid vigor at 2 years of age in hybrid colonies.

Volcanic eruptions disturb vegetation at a time it is needed for preventing mudflows. A resilient indigenous non-legume nitrogen-fixing tree that is adapted to the ash and spreads rapidly protects areas downstream in a volcanic landscape in Indonesia. Within the volcanic ring of fire both the long-term benefits (including densely populated, fertile agricultural soils) and short-term ecological disturbance of volcanic ash deposition are clear. Mount Kelud in East Java has erupted on a 15–37-years cycle for the past centuries, most recently in 2014, causing damage to settlements, agricultural land, agroforestry, and watershed protection forests, as the ash deposits caused tree mortality, restricted infiltration, and led to ash flows. Rapid “restoration” or recovery of tree-based vegetation with planted Legume trees (such as Calliandra spp.) has been attempted but is not very effective. However, the non-legume nitrogen-fixing Parasponia rigida, symbiotic with rhizobium bacteria, contrasted to its non-symbiotic sibling (Trema orientalis) has been studied in laboratory conditions, but not in its native environment. We mapped and sampled P. rigida in various locations (upper, middle, and lower elevation positions in ridge-slope-valley toposequences) on the Kelud complex starting 1 year after the latest eruption, estimated biomass development, and quantified P. rigida root nodules in relation to N availability in the ash/soil mixtures in these locations. P. rigida was found as a pioneer tree at elevations between 600 and 1,700 m a.s.l. (above sea level) along ridges, in slope, and valley positions. At lower elevations T. orientalis dominated. Within 3 years of the eruption, stem diameters were 3–10 cm. Up to 93% of P. rigida root nodules were found to be effective, based on the hemoglobin color on cross-sections. Rhizobium bacteria were found in root nodule tissue at densities of two to a hundred times higher than in rhizosphere soil. Between a total soil N content from 0.01 to 0.04% the density of effective nodules decreased from 1,200 to 200 m−2. P. rigida stands in the area, especially at ridges close to the crater deserve to be managed proactively as future seed sources, given the high frequency of eruption episodes, while recovery after eruptions on similar volcanoes can likely be facilitated by tactical assisted seed dispersal if effective seed collection and storage methods can be established.

The NETO2 gene (neuropilin and tolloid-like 2) encodes a protein that acts as an accessory subunit of kainate receptors and is predominantly expressed in the brain. Upregulation of NETO2 has been observed in several tumors; however, its role in tumorigenesis remains unclear. In this study, we investigated NETO2 expression in breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer using quantitative PCR (qPCR), as well as the effect of shRNA-mediated NETO2 silencing on transcriptome changes in colorectal cancer cells. In the investigated tumors, we observed both increased and decreased NETO2 mRNA levels, presenting no correlation with the main clinicopathological characteristics. In HCT116 cells, NETO2 knockdown resulted in the differential expression of 17 genes and 2 long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), associated with the upregulation of circadian rhythm and downregulation of several cancer-associated pathways, including Wnt, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β, Janus kinase (JAK)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) pathways. Furthermore, we demonstrated the possibility to utilize a novel model organism, short-lived fish Nothobranchius furzeri, for evaluating NETO2 functions. The ortholog neto2b in N. furzeri demonstrated a high similarity in nucleotide and amino acid sequences with human NETO2, as well as was characterized by stable expression in various fish tissues. Collectively, our findings demonstrate the deregulation of NETO2 in the breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer and its participation in the tumor development primarily through cellular signaling.
