Published: December 2020

Effective management of domestic solid waste (DSW) is vital for human health and environmental protection. This can be achieved by involving various stakeholders, especially the local people, where knowledge and awareness of the effective management of DSW are required. Also, a positive attitude towards the issue of management with a good perception of cleanliness is among the fundamental factors that influence effective participation in domestic solid waste management (DSWM). The main objective of this paper is to determine the level of radio usage, awareness, perception, attitude, and participation in DSWM among radio listeners in Dar es Salaam City, Tanzania. This study tested the effectiveness of development communication theory (DevCom-theory) in disseminating DSWM information through radio programs. The study employed a quantitative research design, using the survey method with a questionnaire as the research instrument for data collection. A total of 392 respondents from Temeke Municipality participated in this study. The results show positive and significant levels of radio usage, awareness, perception, attitude, and participation in DSWM. Participation in DSWM was the highest-rated variable compared to the other variables. In addition, almost all items of the tested variables revealed insignificant differences by categories of gender, education, and household income.

In the current era, mobile devices playing an important role in our part of daily life. With today's technology, users of mobile devices can now use their mobile device to make a payment or transaction instead of using a physical card. A mobile wallet is a way to display your card information in a digital format on your mobile device. As a result, mobile wallets are now growing rapidly in Malaysia and many mobile wallet service providers are available on the current market. For this reason, several issues have been raised in this research in order to study the factors that affect users ' intention to switch to mobile wallets. The main objective of this research is to examine the factors which affect users’ switching intention on the mobile wallet. A set of self-administered questionnaires has been randomly distributed to 220 respondents for the purpose of data collection. After we had collected all the data from the respondents, data were keyed into Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 26 and Smart PLS is used to assess the measurement model and the structural equation model. The data analysis result showed that dissatisfaction, alternative attractiveness, and the subjective norm has a significant relationship towards users’ switching intention on the mobile wallet. Moreover, the service provider should keep improving their service quality to avoid users switching to another one. Lastly, the service provider must keep updating their features or attractiveness, so the users won’t be so easy to switch to another one and influence by other people.

Authors: Lim Ying San , Ng Tuan Hock , Hng Yi Shin
Published: December 2020

The use of social media had created a group of ordinary people who actively share their life and experiences on the social media platform. When this group of people received more and more “likes” from the audiences, they are being named as Internet celebrities. Internet celebrities who are having many followers had created the opportunity for the businesspeople to engage them in promoting and selling the products. However, despite the growth of social media and the use of social media by businesspeople, there are not many studies on internet celebrities that affecting the purchase intention among the customers in Malaysia. Hence, the problem statement of this study is to investigate the characteristic affecting internet celebrities that will affect the purchase intention of the consumers. The research had been done by collecting feedback from 200 respondents from Generation Y. An online questionnaire with 5-Likert rating scales is used to collect the data. Convenient sampling techniques were used to collect the data. The result of the study indicated that source credibility and video characteristic are the most important factors in influencing purchase intention, however, physical attractiveness and interactivity are not going to influence purchase intention. This gives an insightful thought to marketers to request internet celebrities to produce more quality videos to attract viewer attention. In terms of source credibility, marketers need to find Internet celebrities who have a more credible image to sell the company products. The justifications for the rejected hypotheses were discussed in detail in the study. The research findings of this study give marketers and academics insightful thoughts on how Internet celebrities can influence the purchase intention of Generation Y today.

Authors: Oduduabasi Inyang , Lawal Olanrewaju
Published: December 2020

This study was on the spatial exploration of Boko Haram terrorist attacks and its influence on components of tourism businesses (hotels) in Northeastern Nigeria. Secondary data on location, nature, date, and number of fatalities from the Boko Haram attack were sourced from Armed Conflict Location & Event Data (ACLED). Data on the location of hotels were sourced from the field with the use of the Geographic Positioning System (GPS). A total of 558 hotels were selected in a one-stage cluster sampling technique. The study adopts a longitudinal research design where centrographic analysis was carried out to describe the spatial distribution of events. Results of the study revealed that Boko Haram attacks were more coordinated rather than a random occurrence with most of the attacks concentrated in Borno State. Furthermore, Boko Haram did not directly target tourism businesses though some of the hotels fell within a 1.5km radius of the attacks. The study, therefore, recommends for an intense media promotion of the areas and States not majorly affected by the crisis, rebuilding of areas and States recovered from the group, provisions of more resilient security apparatus, and general development of social, educational, and economic infrastructures to help revamp not only the tourism sector of the area but its general socioeconomic activities.
SEGREDOS DA PAISAGEM
Authors: Silva Leonardo Luiz Silveira da
Published: December 2020

A paisagem, enquanto categoria geográfica, vista pelas lentes subjetivas de interpretação, guarda os seus segredos. Nos complexos atos de percepção e descrição paisagística, permanece como elemento oculto aquilo que nossos sentidos não são capazes de nos revelar e também o que decidimos não transmitir a outrem, devido aos imperativos sociais. Em uma abordagem que deliberadamente negligenciou a objetividade neopositivista da paisagem, este artigo apresenta os fundamentos teóricos dos segredos paisagísticos e reflete sobre o lidar com a paisagem, utilizando como estratégia discursiva a expressão da paisagem por intermédio da Literatura e da pintura.
REFLEXÕES SOBRE A LETALIDADE DO NOVO CORONAVÍRUS NAS PERIFERIAS DE FORTALEZA, CEARÁ, BRASIL
Authors: Alves de Sousa Juariza , Rodrigues Iohanna Bezerra
Published: December 2020

Diante dos altos níveis de desigualdade de renda e de acesso aos serviços e à infraestrutura habitacional no Brasil, diversos estudos e pesquisadores já apontavam, antes da situação de pandemia se apresentar no país, uma gama de motivos que previa um efeito desproporcional da COVID-19 entre as populações mais vulneráveis, como é observado principalmente em grandes capitais como Fortaleza, a 5ª maior do Brasil. Seja pela maior dificuldade de manter o isolamento social, fator motivado pela necessidade de obter recursos essensicias à sobrevivência ou pela falta de moradias adequadas, muitas vezes compostas por pequenos cômodos ocupados por vários membros familiares, ou seja pela dificuldade de acesso aos serviços de saúde e precarização do trabalho, cada dia mais presente no Brasil, tornou-se possível traçar conexões entre as características socioeconômicas e a maior letalidade da COVID-19 nos bairros ocupados pela população mais vulnerável da cidade de Fortaleza, objeto dessa reflexão.

Fan zu sein»)
Authors: Belyutin Roman
Published: December 2020

The article is devoted to the analysis of sports fans’ discourse which is an important part of sports communication. This discourse is examined in the light of the cognitive metaphor as an object for world cognition and modelling. The research is based on one of the most popular works of the new genre (fan

diary) – the book written by M. Andrack, a journalist, writer and TV presenter who has a status of an experienced football fan apart from his vocation. Research methods comprise cognitive and discourse analysis, modelling, classification,

distributional analysis applied to reveal collocations of certain lexemes. On the basis of the results of the empirical analysis, the article reveals metaphoric representations of key concepts in fans’ subculture built round «rooting »; metaphors having a common reference source (religion, magic, theatre, vehicles, medicine, erotic art, gender, etc.) are united into bigger groups – metaphoric models. The work demonstrates classic and specific (via precedent facts of life and intradiscourse import of concepts) variants for conceptualization of reality by football fans through the metaphoric reference system.
Modernization «From the Wooden Plow»:
the Experience of Agrarian Reform in Smolensk Village in the 1920–1930s
Authors: Zhukov Alexey
Published: December 2020

The article deals with the mechanism of agrarian transformation in the 1920s–1930s on the example of Smolensk region. In the 1920s the NEP modernization processes in the region have been continued by the Stolypin agrarian

reforms. Khutors (farms) creation, mass cooperation, an exit from the peasant community happened due to peasants’ aspiration started «below» and the «above» support of the Soviet authorities. The agrarian impasse in the mid 1920s, that was caused by extensive development, raised the question of finding the best option for agricultural transformation.

In Smolensk Governorate it was shown in the choice of «Danish»

way of development when the high-value farms united in various agricultural cooperatives on the dairy-grass-flax-growing bias that would give a large number

of export products for which the Soviet government could receive good money for industrialization. However, the enrichment of the peasantry, the fear of economic growth in the political NEP led to the termination of this program. The remains of the agrarian experiment were curtailed during the process of

«Smolensk abscess». Further development was forced to follow the socialist way

of modernization with its usual costs.

There was «Chayanov’s» alternative in the course of collectivization. It

provided for the combination of individual economic functions due to cooperation. The defeat of «Chayanov’s» group in the political struggle of 1929 led to the choice of a more forced model – agricultural cartels, communes. It was supposed to create

large agro-industrial complexes (according to the best practices of the USA). But

failures in leadership, dispossession, resistance of the peasantry and mass cattle

slaughter prevented socialist modernization. But the large and technically equipped forms of agricultural production were created, which effectively resolved the task of

ensuring food stability and security of the country. On the other hand, these progressive changes were achieved largely due

to the deterioration of the rural population’s living standards, a return to the elements of the pre-revolutionary past (alienation of workers from the means of production, non-economic coercion, attachment to the collective farm).
Formation of the Healthcare Management System
during the Establishment of Belarusian Soviet Statehood (1917–1921)
Authors: Kapliev Alexey
Published: December 2020

The article characterizes the formation of the healthcare management system during the establishment of the Bolsheviks power in Belarus in the 1917–1921s. The prerequisites, conditions and stages of development of the Soviet

administrative medical authorities, their structure and competence have been identified on the basis of analysis carried out with the help of archival documents, periodicals of the studied period and personal sources. It is proved that the approval of the Soviet principles of qualification, accessibility and free medical care was complicated by the German-occupated

Belarus in 1918 and the adverse epidemiological situation caused by refugees’ migration during the First World War. After the retreat of the German troops the governments of the Soviet Socialist Republic of Belarus and the Soviet Socialist Republic of Lithuania and Belarus formed the People’s Commissariat of

Healthcare as a supreme medical management body. However, the permanent changes in the government and its relocation during the advance of Polish troops determined the low efficiency of measures for the public health protection and anti-epidemic activities. In the conditions of disintegration of these state

entities, their authorities and executive bodies, the local administrative structures

such as provincial and county healthcare departments had acquired a

leading role in providing medical care to the population.

The final formation of the healthcare management system refers to the

end of the hostilities of the Polish-Soviet War, when, along with the restoration

of the Soviet Socialist Republic of Belarus, its People’s Commissariat of

Healthcare was recreated.

Governador Valadares é, internacionalmente, conhecida por exportar mão-de-obra para o exterior. Muitos cidadãos deixam esposa e filhos, assumindo o compromisso de reunir recursos, para em seguida, levá- los consigo. Alguns acabam considerando que isto seria um gasto suple- mentar devendo ser evitado.

As esposas desses deixam de contar com o parceiro para resol- verem juntos os problemascotidianos, e atender suas necessidades sexuais. A realidade vivida por tais mulheres, incita a formulação da questão: Quais são as dificuladades afetivas e sociais vivenciadas pela mulher cujo cênjugue reside no exterior como emigrante? Objetivando responder essa questão, realizou-se uma pesquisa bibliográfica e uma pesquisa de campo, onde 62 esposas de emigrantes foram entrevistadas.

MITOS SOBRE A SEXUALIDADE DO LESADO MEDULAR
Authors: Inês Gandolfo Conceição Maria , Corte Real da Silva Maurício
Published: December 2020

Neste artigo, trata-se de desvendar o que há de fato e o que há de mito nas crendices em torno da sexualidade do deficiente físico, em especial, da pessoa com lesão medular. São discutidas crenças errôneas de domínio popular de que o deficiente físico é um ser assexuado, que não possui atrativos físicos, que não pode ter ereção, que não sente prazer e que não pode reproduzir. Conclui-se que, embora a disfunção sexual do lesado medular venha recebendo atenção crescente por parte de profissionais da área de reabilitação, os aspectos fisiológicos e médicos da disfunção sexual têm sido enfatizados em detrimento dos aspectos emocionais da sexualidade que, por sua vez, têm se revelado muito mais determinantes que os fatores físicos na satisfação sexual e na qualidade dos relacionamentos entre parceiros. Em suma, o texto enfatiza que a deficiência em si não constitui um empecilho para a obtenção de gratificações com a vida sexual.

DESEJO SEXUAL HIPOATIVO. CLÍNICA E EXAMES
Authors: José Serapião Jorge
Published: December 2020

O autor conceitua os termos Desejo Sexual Hipoativo, Diminuição do Desejo Sexual, Síndrome Hipoandrogênica Feminina e Hipogonadismo Masculino Tardio. Chama a atenção para a freqüência e a sintomatologia desse quadro. Analisa a validade do exame físico. Faz considerações gerais sobre a ação dos androgênios na resposta sexual humana. Em relação às mulheres comenta sobre as dificuldades técnicas da dosagem dos androgênios e seu emprego na prática clínica. Conclui que a função sexual é muito complexa e não simplesmente uma decorrência de níveis hormonais. Em relação à mulher reconhece que a mensuração dos níveis de testosterona continua sendo um desafio à prática clínica. Isto se deve à baixa sensibilidade dos atuais ensaios comerciais disponíveis. E, finalmente, afirma que o diagnóstico de Desejo Sexual Hipoativo, quando relacionada a um hipoandrogenismo, é ainda muito baseado na sintomatologia clínica.
DISFUNÇÃO DA EXCITAÇÃO SEXUAL
Authors: Marques de Souza Valdir
Published: December 2020

A atividade sexual é um processo extremamente complexo, composto de uma interligação de vários sistemas orgânicos, psicológicos, sócio-culturais e religiosos. A compreensão adequada das fases da Resposta Sexual Humana é fundamental para o entendimento de suas disfunções. A fase da excitação é basicamente o preparo do organismo para o ato sexual, apresentando reações congestivas e miotônicas. A característica essencial do T an so no da Ex sa ão S xua F m n na é uma incapacidade de adquirir ou manter uma excitação sexual adequada, seja essa excitação refletida através da lubrificação vaginal ou através da sua turgescência, e que essa excitação não seja eficaz até a conclusão da atividade sexual. Diversos fatores podem causar ou contribuir para a disfunção sexual: orgânicos-físicos, orgânicos-hormonais, e psicosociais. O tratamento deve enfocar a causa principal, seja ela orgânica ou psicosocial. A abordagem básica inclui medidas gerais que devem ser utilizadas em todos casos, independente de sua etiologia.

A disfunção erétil (DE) é uma condição médica muito prevalente onde mais da metade dos homens adultos apresentam alguma queixa relacionada a suas ereções. A DE é mais comumente encontrada nos homens com vários componentes da síndrome metabólica, que reúne fatores de risco para diabetes e doença cardiovascular. A disfunção endotelial é um fator etiológico unificador para muitos dos aspectos da síndrome metabólica, especialmente para o diabetes e a doença cardiovascular. A etiologia multifatorial da DE, especialmente em pacientes com síndrome metabólica, aumenta a complexidade no manejo deste problema. Deve-se estar ciente dos fatores fisiopatológicos relacionados à DE para buscar as melhores alternativas e resultados no tratamento destes pacientes. Quaisquer fatores de risco (tabagismo, diabetes, sedentarismo, obesidade, hipertensão e dislipidemia) para doença cardiovascular devem ser modificados ou tratados.
AS CIRURGIAS SOBRE A VULVA E A SEXUALIDADE
Authors: Py Gomes da Silveira Gustavo
Published: December 2020

A vulva, órgão externo (estético) e de função sexual, exige cuidados especiais quando necessária uma intervenção cirúrgica. A grande variedade de tamanho e de constituição das estruturas vulvares faz com que algumas pessoas interpretem como anomalia uma variante anatômica absolutamente normal, como pequenos lábios um pouco maiores que a média. Assim, a plástica de pequenos lábios é uma cirurgia que existe mas é de indicação excepcional. As cirurgias de cistos ou de tumores benignos devem ser delicadas, para não deixar seqüelas. O câncer de vulva, que vem tornando-se mais freqüente em adultos jovens, deixando de ser próprio das idosas, tinha, como tratamento primário preferencial, a vulvectomia radical com linfadenectomia, hoje usada apenas em tumores avançados. Com as pacientes cada vez mais jovens, os tumores em fase inicial tornando-se freqüentes, ainda a moda de cirurgias conservadoras para câncer, tudo levou a defender o tratamento conservador. Hoje, o tratamento do tumor invasor de vulva tem como padrão oficial, em tumores laterais, uma cirurgia que conserva o clitóris e a hemivulva contralateral, com repercussão positiva sobre a sexualidade.

Published: December 2020

Mudanças sociais têm possibilitado a flexibilização do modelo familiar patriarcal, gerando novos arranjos familiares, entre os quais se destaca a parceria homoafetiva estável. No entanto, a literatura científica produzida no contexto nacional ainda é bastante incipiente no que se refere a contribuições relativas às peculiaridades das famílias homoafetivas, que possam orientar a prática dos profissionais de saúde na abordagem de indivíduos com orientação sexual divergente da heteronormatividade. Este estudo apresenta alguns sentidos atribuídos à relação conjugal apresentados por um casal de homens homossexuais a fim de oferecer subsídios para a sensibilização das práticas em saúde para as especificidades desta demanda. Para tanto, foi realizada uma entrevista semi-estruturada com um casal de homens adultos e homossexuais com quatro anos de relacionamento. O conteúdo da entrevista foi submetido a uma análise temática que buscou identificar as metáforas que o casal utilizou para descrever sua relação e quais os sentidos que elas expressam.
A ARTE ERÓTICA, A FANTASIA E O DESEJO SEXUAL
Authors: Caridade Amparo
Published: December 2020

O sujeito amoroso vive a sexualidade no real de seu corpo e para além dele. Na busca amorosa sexual que faz, ele depara-se com dimensões outras que integram sua experiência humana e sexual: as normas da cultura, o simbólico da linguagem, a sedução, a fantasia, o olhar do outro. Na vivência do prazer, a arte erótica, a fantasia, a sedução o desejo têm lugar central. Nesse movimento de encontrar e partilhar a sexualidade com alguém reafirma- se o quanto se necessita das referências simbólicas que possibilitam transportar nossa experiência para além do real do corpo que somos. A cultura normatiza as vivências sexuais mas também cria condições mais encantadas e fantasiosas aos apelos do desejo humano.

HOMOFOBIA
Authors: Motti Luiz
Published: December 2020

Os homossexuais são os mais odiados dentre todas os grupos minoritários, explicando-se tal intolerância porque o amor entre pessoas do mesmo sexo foi secularmente considerado crime hediondo, condenado como pecado abominável, escondido através de um verdadeiro complô do silêncio. Este "racismo anti-homossexual", cientificamente conceituado de homofobia, redundou na internalização e institucionalização da intolerância por parte dos membros da sociedade heterossexista, a iniciar pela repressão dentro da própria família, no interior das igrejas e na academia, dentro dos partidos políticos, das próprias entidades voltadas para a defesa dos direitos humanos e do poder governamental. A homofobia cultural e institucional contaminam inclusive as próprias vítimas: gays, lésbicas e transgêneros, em sua maior parte vivem numa espécie de vácuo identitário e sob o efeito perverso da alienação, com baixa auto-estima, incapazes de iniciativas em defesa da própria cidadania. Uma das prioridades para reverter este quadro perverso é desconstruir os tabus religiosos que diabolizam o amor entre pessoas do mesmo sexo, propondo às diferentes igrejas a promoção de pastorais específicas voltadas para as minorias sexuais, não descurando da implementação de ações afirmativas governamentais visando a cidadania plena da comunidade homossexual.

Authors: Eloisa Machado Santos Prata Keila , Alberto Dias Carlos
Published: December 2020

Embora as transformações ocorridas no último século tenham levado a mulher a reclamar o direito ao prazer, são encontrados, na prática clínica, pacientes cuja problemática está centrada na insatisfação sexual. Diante do temor de colocar em risco sua auto-estima e o relacionamento, a mulher faz uso da estratégia de simulação do orgasmo. Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo identificar as variáveis que levam a mulher, na atualidade, a simular o orgasmo durante o ato sexual. Para atendimento do objetivo proposto, utilizou-se de entrevista estruturada domiciliar, e de um formulário próprio para registro dos dados coletadas. Participaram da investigação 200 mulheres com experiência sexual, residentes na cidade de Governador Valadares. Constatou-se que apesar de simularem o orgasmo, as mulheres se sentem competentes e realizadas. Foi também observado que quando tal comportamento se torna uma prática recorrente, o sentimento de amor para com o parceiro reduz-se gradativamente.

Resumen

Objetivo: Describir la evolución temporal de la Enfermedad de Chagas y los índices de infestación con triatominos en Chiquimula, Guatemala, en el periodo 2000-2018.

Material y Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo, con datos de los registros entomológicos y serológicos del Área de Salud de Chiquimula que cumplieron con las definiciones de caso de los protocolos nacionales.  Se calcularon tasas de incidencia y prevalencia de la enfermedad e índices entomológicos.

Resultados: La mediana de edad de la población estudiada fue de 40 años (rango 0-96). Se estimó una prevalencia de casos para el 2018 de 0.22% (IC 0.00 11- 0.2984); la tasa de incidencia por 10,000 habitantes fue de 1.0 (IC 1.2680755 - 8.5915) para el año 2004 y 3.0 (IC 0.2976 - 3.7077) para el 2018. La positividad fue de 45.81%(525/1,146). El índice de infestación basal (2000) fue de 21.13% y posterior a las intervenciones de control en 2007 disminuyó a 2%.

Discusión: La incidencia de casos de Enfermedad de Chagas aumentó a lo largo del periodo de estudio a pesar que los índices de infestación con triatominos disminuyeron; es recomendable realizar estudios de seroprevalencia de la enfermedad.

How much of morphological variability in pollen from genus Rubus L. might be explained by climate variability
Authors: Lechowicz Kacper , Dyderski Marcin Krzysztof , Wrońska-Pilarek Dorota
Published: December 2020

The aim of this study was to assess the influence of 19 climatic factors during flowering periods and taxonomic proximity on the morphological features of the pollen from the genus Rubus L., which comprises numerous species, often with small ranges of natural occurrence.. It was hypothesized that the pollen morphology would be driven more by the effects of taxonomic proximity  than by climatic variables, due to the conservatism of the pollen features, connected with a shared evolutionary history. The analyses revealed that climatic variability can explain an additional 2.5% to 14.0% of pollen morphology. The majority of the modelled pollen features were not correlated with the bioclimatic factors studied, except for the P/E ratio, which was positively correlated, and E, which was negatively correlated with PC3. However, most of the variability was explained by random effects connected with the taxonomic affiliation of the studied species to the genus Rubus L., which is very difficult in taxonomic terms. The study, therefore, showed how much additional interspecific variability in pollen morphology might be explained by the climatic variability of the species distributions.
Rediscovery of a lost type: solving the mysterious identity of Amorphophallus longispathaceus Engl. & Gehrm. (Araceae)
Authors: Bustamante Rene Alfred Anton , Tamayo Maverick N. , Hetterscheid Wilbert
Published: December 2020

The taxonomic identity of the incompletely described Amorphophallus longispathaceus Engl. & Gehrm. has been a mystery for almost 109 years. Types were assumed destroyed during WWII, other than a sterile isotype at K, the recent discovery of a fertile isotype at NY, here designated the lectotype, has enabled the identity of this species to be clarified. Amorphophallus longispathaceus is conspecific with and takes priority over the more recent A. dactylifer Hett.
Stellaria ruderalis M. Lepší, P. Lepší, Z. Kaplan et P. Koutecký, a new species record for the flora of Ukraine
Authors: Novikov Andriy , Sup-Novikova Mariia , Pachschwöll Clemens
Published: December 2020

Stellaria ruderalis is an annual (semi)ruderal species from the S. media group, which has been recently published by Lepší et al., therefore, its distribution range in Europe is insufficiently known. This paper is based on field exploration of 39 localities of S. media s.l. in the Lviv region, Western Ukraine. The first report of S. ruderalis in Ukraine comes from Dmytre village, where it grows at roadsides and arable field edges in a semiruderal habitat of the alliance Aegopodion podagrariae. As only a single population was found, Stellaria ruderalis is obviously still spreading in Western Ukraine, a fact which was reported already for northern Central Europe. This record represents the northeasternmost locality of the species so far known.

MTBU merupakan lokasi Penambangan PT Bukit Asam Tbk. Pembongkaran overburden serta interburden di lokasi tersebut dilakukan dengan cara peledakan. Besarnya boulder pada kegiatan peledakan dapat menyebabkan produksi batubara terhambat, karena bongkahan batuan yang besar tersebut tidak sesuai dengan kapasitas alat. Hal ini menybebakan  produktivitas alat gali muat menjadi terganggu. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui distribusi fragmentasi hasil peledakan, pengaruh getaran tanah terhadap kemantapan lereng, dan pengaruh fragmentasi hasil peledakan terhadap produktivitas PC 2000. Data primer didapatkan melalui pengamatan lapangan, sedangkan data sekunder didapatkan dari jurnal peneliti terdahulu dan dokumen perusahaan. Pengolahan dan analisis data fragmentasi batuan dilakukan dengan  bantuan software  Split Desktop 2.0 Demo. Analisis getaran tanah dilakukan dengan membandingkan antara nilai PPV akibat peledakan dengan  ambang baku getaran. Hasil analisis menunjukkan distribusi fragmentasi dari hasil peledakan adalah ukuran fragmentasi kecil dari 20 cm sebanyak 34,11%, ukuran 21 – 40 cm sebanyak 19,81%, ukuran 41 – 60 cm sebanyak 20,84, ukuran 61 – 80 cm sebanyak 16,24%, dan ukuran 81 – 100 sebanyak 9%. Hasil analisis getaran tanah  menunjukkan rata-rata getaran tanah (PPV) sebesar 0,996 mm/s dan termasuk kategori aman bagi lereng dan bangunan. Sedangkan produktivitas excavator komatsu PC 2000 mencapai 858,22 BCM/jam.
