Authors: Mutmainnah Mutmainnah
Published: May 2023

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi peran pemerintah yaitu Dinas Sosial Kota Makassar dalam pemberdayaan masyarakat penyandang disabilitas melalui empat peran, yaitu pemerintah sebagai regulator, fasilitator, dinamisator, dan motivator. Penelitian ini menggunakan jenis deskriptif kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan dengan teknik wawancara, pengamatan, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian membuktikan bahwa peranan pemerintah dalam memberdayakan masyarakat penyandang disabilitas di kota Makassar telah berjalan cukup baik. Pemerintah sebagai regulator merumuskan acuan dasar bagi masyarakat yang merupakan instrument guna mengelola berbagai program penyelenggaraan pemberdayaan. Sebagai dinamisator, Dinas Sosial kota Makassar senantiasa berkoordinasi dengan seluruh pihak terkait dan memberikan pengarahan serta bimbingan kepada mereka yang menyandang disabilitas. Peran pemerintah sebagai fasilitator ditunjukkan dari adanya kegiatan pendampingan, pengadaan fasilitas serta tunjangan atau bantuan sosial bagi warga penyandang disabilitas. Adapun selaku motivator, pemerintah telah melakukan penyuluhan maupun sosialisasi, dan memberikan penghargaan pada warga masyarakat. Faktor penghambat peran pemerintah dalam memberdayakan masyarakat diantaranya inkonsistensi aturan dan sistem yang dibentuk dan pemahaman penyandang disabilitas yang rendah tentang proses dan aturan yang ada. Ada pun, faktor pendorongnya adalah perhatian keluarga, lembaga sosial, pemerhati isu sosial, serta pemerintah, dan kecanggihan teknologi.
Efficacy of Post-Operative Logbook-Based Quadriceps Exercises on Functional Outcome after Total Knee Arthroplasty
Authors: Ongkosit Chatchapol , Panuwet Ruengsiri
Published: May 2023

Purpose: Most patients who undergo total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are elderly. Some patients have recognition impairments and cannot correctly perform home-based rehabilitation effectively. This study aimed to compare the functional outcomes between logbook- and non-logbook-based quadricep exercises.
Methods: In this prospective cohort study with retrospective case controls scheduled for unilateral primary/bilateral TKA, we compared 57 patients who received post-operative home-based rehabilitation and seated knee extension exercises (non-logbook group) with 60 patients who received the same protocol but were provided a logbook with paper handouts containing the schedule, date, time, and record form (logbook group). The modified Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores and data pertaining to range of motion (ROM) were collected pre-operatively and at 6, 12, and 24 weeks post-operatively.
Results: The logbook group showed a significant improvement in the mean difference in function and total WOMAC scores at 6-weeks post-operatively (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the pre- and post-operative ROM at any follow-up time point between the groups.
Conclusions: Logbook-based quadriceps exercises resulted in significant early improvement in the functional outcomes. Logbooks may help patients who have undergone TKA to perform their home-based exercise regimens accurately.

Published: May 2023

The city's growing population is causing an increase in traffic demand for supply, mobility, and reverse logistics areas. These are the challenges that participants in the logistics sector are facing, together with rising commodity demand for fundamental requirements. As a result, many scientists are driven to design logistics solutions to mitigate the impact of a growing population, which increases demand for logistics and supply chains, which also has an influence on the community's environment. However, thorough literature survey studies targeted at finding potential treatments for the management of supply chain disorders using bibliometric, network, and theme analyses are still few and limited. According to the findings of the investigation, the primary supply chain themes are provider logistics and reverse logistics. This research has various implications for reverse logistics in the FMCG industry. According to the research, suppliers must understand that implementing environmental activities with their clients may improve their ability to compete in the market, and the "last mile" of distribution may thus be completed by electric cars because the distances are so short that they do not present any difficulties or require elaborate human planning. Therefore, we find that employing logistics providers to manage the FMCG industry or looking at the strategies of logistics providers for renewable energy might be an intriguing future study area.
Analysis of Maintenance Optimization on Medium Voltage Overhead Lines (SUTM) in Reducing Energy Not Supplied (ENS) at PT. PLN (Persero) ULP Tarakan
Authors: Agun Suryani  , Achmad Budiman
Published: May 2023

The background of this research is an analysis of equipment disturbances that occur in distributing electrical energy. The disturbance is a blackout. Power outages cause a decrease in the continuity of service to customers and result in a lot of loss of electrical energy that is not distributed to customers. The research objectives are to find out the optimization technique of distribution network maintenance, how to reduce the value of energy not supplied (ENS), find out the losses due to ENS, and find out the total electrical energy distributed after preventive maintenance is carried out. This research uses a preventive maintenance method, which is maintenance that can prevent unexpected damage to distribution system networks and equipment. This research optimized preventive maintenance actions by reducing disturbances after preventive maintenance from 7 disturbances in February to 2 disturbances in March. Before preventive maintenance, the loss due to ENS amounted to Rp. 36,192,017.626, and the total electrical energy not distributed was 25,025.76 kWh. After preventive maintenance, there was a significant decrease in the total loss due to ENS of Rp. 953,516,447, and the amount of electrical energy not distributed was 659.28 kWh. This research can increase maintenance efficiency due to electrical energy losses by 97.36% at the time interval when this research data is managed when data collection is carried out in the field.
Flavonoid Extraction From Papaya (Carica Papaya L.) Seed Using Ultrasound – Assisted Extraction Method and Determination of Its SPF Value
Authors: Budi Nursanto Eduardus , Wijaya Rachel , Permata Sari Alifiana
Published: May 2023

Synthetic compounds with photoprotective property have their limited concentration in sunscreen formulation. Therefore, reaching the maximum UV protection by themselves is difficult. Natural compounds are good consideration to include in sunscreen formulations. Papaya seeds contain large amounts of nutraceutical compounds. However, their presence is often considered as waste. One of many benefits it has is due to the presence of flavonoids, phenols, alkaloids, saponins, and tannins. Flavonoid is one of the alternative compounds that provide beneficial effects on skin UV-protection. Therefore, this study aimed to extract the flavonoid compounds in papaya seeds and test its sun protection factor (SPF) value. Extraction was carried out by varying the mass ratio of the solid/solvent (1:10, 1:20, and 1:30), and the solvent concentration of ethanol (50%, 70%, and 96%) at 45oC for 45 minutes. The results of this study indicate the presence of these compounds in papaya seed extract which was extracted using the ultrasound-assisted extraction method with the maximum extraction yield (11.888%) obtained at 1:30 mass ratio with a 50% ethanol concentration; the highest total flavonoid content was 2.854 mg quercetin equivalent (QE)/g papaya seed at 1:30 ratio with 96% ethanol concentration, and the highest SPF value was at a 50% ethanol concentration which was 12.0775 (at 300 ppm).
Encoding climbing scenes in English : frequency and patterns in descriptions written by speakers of diverse languages
Authors: Irsara Martina
Published: May 2023

The English verb climb has a greater range of syntactic formulations than its Ladin and Italian counterparts, the majority of which do not take direct objects and most commonly express effortful uphill movement; however, German appears typologically closer to English. As a result, the question arises as to whether English learners with diverse first languages make different lexical and syntactic choices when describing climbing scenes in the target language. Because of diverse cross-linguistic impacts, it is expected that German speakers will employ the English verb climb in more contexts than Ladin and Italian speakers. Trentino-South Tyrolean speakers of Ladin (n = 13), Italian (n = 40), and German (n = 40) describe 12 artworks depicting a figure rising in various surroundings and directions, to confirm this fact. The preceding finding is corroborated by an online video-description task completed by speakers of Ladin (n = 57), Italian (n = 45), and German (n = 45). Despite difficulties distinguishing across multilingual groups of learners, this study reveals disparities amongst student groups with similar multilingual backgrounds. Contrastive assessment of multilingual learners' descriptions of human climbing scenarios indicates tendencies that are likely attributable to cross-linguistic variance.
Dissonant and consonant narrators : Dorrit Cohn's concepts, narratorial Stance theory and cognitive literary studies
Authors: Teske Joanna Klara , Jankowski Jan
Published: May 2023

Our paper reconsiders the notions of dissonance and consonance introduced in Dorrit Cohn's Transparent Minds (1978). Cohn applies the terms to psycho- and self-narration and defines them with reference to the narrator's prominence, distance/intimacy as well as moral and cognitive privilege with reference to the character. Taking advantage of stance theory, we argue that dissonance and consonance are best taken as dimensions of the narrator's attitude towards the character and/or the narratee, we relate aspects of consonance/dissonance to the basic facets of focalization – emotional, interpretive, and evaluative – and we analyze them in terms of convergence or divergence and further, in the case of divergence, in terms of superiority or inferiority. We claim that there is no automatic correlation between narratorial consonance/dissonance and reliability. Overall, we believe that narratorial consonance/dissonance deserves much attention because it has great impact on the reader's reception of the narrator and characters.
Inexplicit reported speakers in hard news : text, discourse and genre perspective
Authors: Nádraská Zuzana
Published: May 2023

This paper investigates forms of presentation with inexplicit, i.e. covert or formally unexpressed, reported speakers in hard news discourse in British broadsheets. The research develops the discussion presented, for instance, in Ljung (1998), Marín-Arrese (2002a), Semino and Short (2004), Martínez-Caro (2006) and Stenvall (2008a, 2014) in three perspectives. The textual perspective concerns (potential) co-reference between an inexplicit reported speaker and external voices present explicitly in the text. The discourse perspective compares agent obfuscation in two different contexts – the context of epistemic assessment and the context of negative evaluation (Bednarek 2006a; Bednarek and Caple 2012). The research shows that the functional distinction between epistemic and negative evaluation manifests itself in the differences in lexico-grammatical choices, the type of forms of presentation, the linguistic cues that signal the presence of voice and the potentiality of blending of the internal and external voice. The genre perspective discusses the influence of generic conventions on the distribution of inexplicit voices across the generic structure of hard news (van Dijk 1988; Feez et al. 2008; Urbanová 2013a).
Haunted by the specter of the animal other : reading beyond the human in Kate Atkinson's Jackson Brodie series
Authors: Murray Jessica
Published: May 2023

This article offers a close literary analysis of Kate Atkinson's Jackson Brodie novels through the theoretical rubric of Critical Animal Studies. I demonstrate how animals haunt the texts and how serious and respectful scholarly engagement with the specter of the animal other allows fresh insights and ways of thinking to emerge. As the analysis develops, I deploy the conceptual tools of Vegan Studies to suggest that meaningful multispecies relationships require us to devise radically innovative terminological, epistemological and ontological frameworks. The questions that arise when reading beyond the human in these novels create pathways that allow us to take some tentative steps towards a world that is more just for animals and more reflective of the "love" most people profess for the animals with whom they share their lives and homes. This article is an interrogation of literary representations and the assumptions that are embedded in those representations, a provocation to read beyond the human and a political plea for a more just world for all members of our societies. As a necessary first step, I argue that we must, at the very least, "see" the animal other when we read.
The multidirectionality of Romani identity in Damian Le Bas' The Stopping Places
Authors: Nadal-Ruiz Alejandro
Published: May 2023

The romanticised and stereotyped construction of the Romani people absorbed by mainstream society has contributed to the obliteration of their cultural complexity and their ensuing alienation. The present article analyses how the memoir The Stopping Places (2018), by the British Romani writer Damian Le Bas, makes a case for the borderlessness of his people. It is the main purpose of this study to underscore Romani identity as inherently multidirectional, hence allowing for a relational, intercultural dialogue aimed at transcending the long-standing Romani vs. non-Romani tension. For this purpose, Le Bas' network-like journey across some key stopping places is read as an endorsement of the synchronicity and interconnectedness characterising our present world. His narrative is an empowering attestation that foregrounds the fruitful interactions between the Roma and other cultures and sets the assumedly distrustful and protective Romani as an example of cultural flexibility.
Robert Frost's dramatic monologue : the two sides of the narrative in "A Servant to Servants"
Authors: Nazari Hossein , Shahroodi Sara Taghvaei
Published: May 2023

The structuralist-inspired development of narrative theories in France from the late 1960s onward has spawned a whole host of opportunities to explore the way narratives function. This is precisely what Gerald Prince undertakes in his Narratology: The Form and Functioning of Narrative, in which he delineates the mutual relationship between the narrator and the narratee as two of the most important constituents in any narrative. This framework is useful for the study of Robert Frost's narrative poetry, which comprised a large part of his oeuvre at a time when the form had become marginalized due to conforming to the poetic conventions that modernism tended to undermine. This research explores Frost's modernist take on this conventional genre through a narratological study of his poem “A Servant to Servants.”
Pluralismo religioso en la Gran Bretaña contemporánea
Authors: García Oliva Javier
Published: May 2023

When it comes to questions about religion and belief, Great Britain discloses a fascinating web of contrasts and contradictions. Even the most casual glance reveals that the spiritual canvas is not cut from a whole cloth, but stitched together as a patchwork quilt, made up of panels of varying colours and textures, and at whatever level the picture is examined, dramatic differences can be discerned. In order to explore this, we shall first consider the distinct journeys through history experienced by England, Scotland and Wales, before looking at variations within those national communities in the modern world, and finally examining how the contemporary challenges are managed.

Pursuance of academic music studies by popular Zimbabwe musicians
Authors: Maguraushe Wonder , Magwati Phineas
Published: May 2023

Some popular musicians in Zimbabwe have taken up professional development seriously and enrolled in academic music studies, yet no research has been done to explore this recent phenomenon. Whenever the subject of Zimbabwean music is discussed, the focus tends to centre on popular artists, their lifestyles, achievements and scandals. The emerging trend in which Zimbabwean artists are enrolling for academic programs has received little scholarly interrogation. This is the scenario despite the fact that education is the backbone for the development of the music industry, which is part of the United Nations` Sustainable Development Goals. The main aim of this article is to consider how music studies impact and broaden the scope of the artists and contribute to the betterment of the Zimbabwe music industry. In this qualitative study, we purposively sampled and interviewed 7 popular Zimbabwean musicians who embarked on academic music studies. Data were collected through key informant interviews to solicit their views on the value that music education adds to their professional careers in terms of transforming their performances, compositions and application of music theory to analyses musical issues, as well as observations and document analysis. The study was guided and informed by the theory of stereotype and Dweck`s theory of mind-set. The findings steer an interesting discussion in which the musicians indicate how their capabilities and conduct of business are polished by their interaction with academia. We argue that the acquisition of professional academic qualifications by popular musicians adds value to their acts and encourage untrained musicians to seriously consider trudging the academic route for the development of the Zimbabwe music industry to realise its full potential.

Production and Unsaturation Index of Alkenones During Batch and Continuous Cultures of the Coccolithophorid Alga, Emiliania Huxleyi
Authors: Sorrosa Joy , Yamamoto M , Shiraiwa Y
Published: May 2023

Emiliania huxleyi (EH2 strain) was grown at 10, 15, 20 and 250C in batch and continuous cultures to assess the factors affecting the changes in the production and the unsaturation index of alkenones. The production of alkenones continued during growth and was greatly stimulated at IOOC where cell growth was greatly suppressed, but not influenced by the changing cell size. Alkenones are chemically and/or biologically stable compound for they can be detected even in broken or dead cells. The UK37 and the ratio between C36:2- ethyl alkenoate (EE) and total C37 alkenones (K37) (EE/K37) changed during growing phase and remained nearly constant during the stationary phase at all temperatures tested in batch cultures. Data in continuous culture showed that the alkenones with 2 double bonds increased at high temperature. While the alkenones with 3 double bonds decreased and the reverse change was clearly observed when temperature was decreased. UK' 37 changed without any lag when temperature changed and needed approximately 2-6 days to attain the respective levels depending on the difference of temperature given. The final values of UK' 37 obtained at stationary stage were similar between batch and continuous cultures at each temperature and the values increased with increasing temperature. The results strengthened the suggestion that temperature is the major factor that influences the production and unsaturation of alkenones.

İhracatta Elektronik Ticaret Gümrük Beyannamesinin (ETGB) Rolü
Authors: TURGUT Muhammed
Published: May 2023

İhracat ülkelerin ekonomik kalkınmasında ve işletmelerin büyümesinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. İşletmelerin sürdürülebilir bir yapıda olabilmesi ve küresel dünyanın zorlu rekabet piyasası arasında yer bulabilmesi açısından uluslararası pazarlara açılmaları gerekmektedir. Sınırların ortadan kalktığı, işletmelerin küreselleşme olgusunu benimsediği bir ekonomik düzende bu önemin artarak devam edeceği düşünülmektedir. Bu sebeplerden dolayı hem ülkeler açısından hem de işletmeler açısından ihracat kavramı büyük öneme sahiptir. İhracat sürecinin karmaşık yapısı ve bürokratik süreçlerin yoğun olması ise ihracat süreci yavaşlatan önemli engellerin başında gelmektedir. Bu engeli aşabilmek adına ülkeler ve işletmeler yoğun çaba sarf etmektedirler. İhracatta bu engeli aşabilmenin en önemli yolu sürekli gelişen teknolojiye ayak uydurmak ve çağın gerekliliğini teknoloji aracılığıyla yakalamaktan geçmektedir. Özellikle son yıllarda teknolojiyle birlikte hayatımıza giren e-ticaret kavramı tüm süreçlerde değişimler yaşattığı gibi ihracatta da köklü değişimler yapılmasına sebebiyet vermiştir. Bu köklü değişimlerden birisi de Elektronik Ticaret Gümrük Beyannamesi (ETGB) olmuştur. Elektronik ticaretin giderek artması, ihracat sürecindeki model ve numunelerin hızla ulaştırılma ve tüketicilerin aldıkları ürüne hemen ulaşma isteği gümrük süreçlerinin basitleştirilmesini zorunlu hale getirmiştir.

Self-consolidating concretes (SCC) are special concretes that have the particularity of being very fluid and have been developed over the past thirty years. They are still qualified today as "new concretes" because their use remains modest, although they have strong development potential. The specificity of SCC compared to ordinary vibrated concrete (OC) lies in the fact that it is extremely fluid and does not require vibration to be implemented. Compacting under the effect of their own weight, they can be poured in areas with a high density of reinforcement. For the formulation of self-consolidating concretes, a large volume of mineral addition is necessary so as to reduce the quantity of cement induced by the increase in the volume of paste necessary to allow the flow of the concrete. The main objective of this work was to determine the effect of different cement additions (Filler limestone (Fc), crushed dune sand (Sd), and silica fume (Fs)) by partial substitution of a certain quantity of Portland cement on the physical-mechanical properties of SCC using the capillary absorption test. The results obtained demonstrate that all self-consolidating concretes give interesting results in terms of compressive strength and water absorption.

In the research, different experimental setups were used to examine the treatment of wastewater from the paper industry using the electrooxidation method, one of the electrochemical treatment methods in the batch system. In the 2000 mL volume jacketed glass reactor utilized for the treatment of wastewater from the paper industry, 4 anode and 4 cathode sieve type plates of 7 cm x 10 cm dimensions were positioned at 0.5 cm intervals, and 1200 mL wastewater was used in the tests. Coated sieve type Ti/Pt electrodes were employed as the anode in the electrooxidation studies, and uncoated sieve type Ti electrodes were used as the cathode. It was determined that the active anodic wet surface area was 1078 cm2 . The removal rates of pollutant parameters such as turbidity and SS (Suspended Solids) in the experiments; the effects of wastewater initial pH value and supporting electrolyte type parameters were investigated. According to the results, the most effective pH value for Ti/Pt anode type at 400 rpm mixing speed was determined to be waste water natural pH (7.5), and 0.50 M NaCl was the most successful supporting electrolyte type. 96.92% Suspended Solids removal efficiency and 95.38% turbidity removal efficiency for Ti/Pt anode were achieved under ideal conditions. In addition, 312.05 kW-hour/kg COD is determined as the energy consumption value.

Beton ve çeliğin birlikte kullanılmasıyla üretilen betonarme yapı elemanları geniş bir kullanım alanına sahiptir. Donatı çeliği malzemesinin özellikleri ve yapı elemanlarının servis gördüğü çevrenin şartları donatıları korozyona uğratabilmektedir. Donatı korozyonu yapıların servis ömrünü kısaltan, önemli ekonomik kayıplara yol açan bir bozulma mekanizmasıdır. Beton, pas payının yetersizliği, karbonatlaşma ile pH değerinin düşüklüğü, klor gibi agresif iyonların varlığı, imalat hataları gibi durumlardan dolayı donatıyı koruyabilme özelliğini kaybedebilmektedir. Korozyona maruz donatı çeliği kesitini kaybetmekte ve taşıyıcı elemanlardaki asıl görevi olan çekme kuvvetlerini karşılayamamaktadır. Bu çalışmada saf suya maruz B420C sınıfı donatı çeliğinde ön gerilme uygulamaksızın ve belirlenen seviyelerde ön gerilme uygulandıktan sonra donatı çeliğinin korozyon hızları ölçülmüştür. Uygulanan ön gerilme seviyeleri elastik, akma, çekme ve kopma bölgelerinde olacak şekilde belirlenmiştir. Donatının korozyon hızları elektrokimyasal yöntem ile deneysel olarak ölçülmüştür. Çalışma sonucunda donatı çeliğine ön gerilme yüklemesinin donatı çeliğinin korozyon hızını artırdığı tespit edilmiştir. En yüksek donatı korozyon hızı çekme bölgesinde gerilme uygulanan donatıda görülmüştür. Çekme gerilmesi ve kopma gerilmesi uygulanan numuneler karşılaştırıldığında çekme mukavemeti değerinde gerilme uygulanan numunede daha az korozyon hızı ortaya çıktığı gözlenmiştir. Bu durum donatı çeliğinin yapısında gerilmeler nedeniyle ortaya çıkan değişimlere dayandırılarak irdelenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda laboratuvarda ölçülen donatı korozyon hızlarıyla yapının servis gördüğü çevre şartlarındaki donatı çeliğinin korozyon hızlarının tahmin edilebileceği anlaşılmıştır.

Prediction of Solar power generation plays an important role to improve the efficiency ofeconomic dispatch function and reduce the dependence on fossil fuels and help in the energy managementsystem. For time series solar energy prediction multiple models were introduced but these model trains arebased on yearly historical data. A big data collection containing many missing values makes these modeltraining more complicated that’s why In this paper, an efficient energy prediction model is proposed for theprediction of time series solar energy based on short predicted weather training data. Two complimentarymodels are based on linear regression and a knowledge based neural network is exploited to predict futuresolar power, with offline training. The LR is structured under the direction of the proposed input methodparameter selection and used when training data is enough. KBNN is used for existing advantagespredictive models are also very important when training data is not enough. According to test findings usingreal data sets. An LR model can deal effectively with linear data, but a KBNN model can cope effectivelywith nonlinear behavior. Additionally, the results demonstrate the effectiveness of LR showing a correlationcoefficient (R2) is 98% with a root mean square error of 45 and KBNN shows a correlation coefficient (R2)is 99% with a root mean square error of 44 in providing a reliable version, The results additionally showthe functionality of LR and KBNN in imparting a dependable version, especially when the short trainingdataset is available.
