Pengaruh Penggunaan Gurah Engine Conditioner Foam Tanpa Di Vakum Terhadap Emisi Gas Buang Pada Sepeda Motor Beat 110 cc
Authors: Towijaya T , Anam Khoirul
Published: October 2023

Abstract

Technology is evolving rapidly. Meanwhile, the number of motorized vehicles is also increasing. This increase needs to be considered because motorized vehicles require fuels like Premium, Pertalite, Pertamax, Gasoil, etc. The combustion system to generate power allows for exhaust emissions. Exhaust gas emissions are the residue from the combustion of fuel (gasoline) and air in the combustion engine which is released through the engine exhaust system. Therefore, one of the efforts to reduce exhaust gas levels is creating an engine for the combustion chamber cleaning process. This study aimed to determine the effects of using the foamy engine cleaner for the combustion chamber cleaning process without being vacuumed on the resulting exhaust emissions. The test was carried out using a gas analyzer on a 110cc Beat Vehicle with engine speed variations of 1500 rpm, 2000 rpm, 2500 rpm, 3000 rpm, and 3500 rpm to determine the concentration of CO and HC. Based on the test results, it was found that using the foamy engine cleaner for the combustion chamber cleaning process resulted in the lowest concentration reduction, namely at 2000 rpm engine speed with 0.23% CO levels and 62 ppm HC.

Published: October 2023

Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most adaptable developing crops, adapting to a wide range of agro-climatic conditions. Maize is renowned as the “Queen of Cereals” because it has the largest genetic yield potential of any cereal. Several fungal, bacterial, and viral diseases affect it. Among these is Maydis leaf blight, which is caused by the fungus Bipolaris maydis and causes 40-45% yield loss in maize around the world. The current study attempted to investigate the morphological and molecular variance of Bipolaris maydis isolates. B. maydis identification based solely on micro and macroscopic characteristics and morphological characters may result in inaccurate designation. To identify the proper species, we amplified the 18S rRNA gene region by PCR, sequenced it, and compared it to the NCBI data using BLAST. ITS primers were also used for PCR amplification of ITS sections. The amplified product of the 18S rRNA gene was sequenced and the accession numbers were deposited in Gen Bank. In the present study the results obtained from PCR amplification of ITS region with primer pair of ITS1 and ITS4 produced a gene product of 700 bp confirming the isolatesto be Bipolaris maydis.

Solvents, including acetone, chloroform, distilled water, ethanol, and methanol, were used to test the antibacterial capabilities of two plants, Psoralea corylifolia and Emblica officinalis, against Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri, the major cause of citrus canker disease. Psoralea corylifolia seed extract yielded the highest extraction yield (14.50%) in methanol and the lowest in dichloromethane (9.75%), whereas Emblica officinalis extract yielded the highest extraction yield (15.75%) in methanol and the lowest (0.65%) in petroleumether solvent. Psoralea corylifolia and Emblicaofficinalis methanol extracts were reported to have potential antibacterial action against Xanthomonas citri. In vitro screening of eight plant-concentration interactions revealed various levels of toxicity to the bacterium, indicated as mean zone of inhibition of bacterial growth. At all concentrations examined, it was found that E. officinalis plant extract inhibited the test bacterium the most when compared to P. corylifolia plantextract.

Authors: Yusnia Yusniah Anggraini , Guntur Fernando
Published: October 2023

Menyadari bahwa pandemi tidak hanya berdampak terhadap sektor kesehatan, pemerintah mangambil kebijakan jaring pengaman sosial (JPS) untuk masyarakat lapisan bawah. Sayangnya, JPS kerap tidak tepat sasaran karena data penerima manfaat yang kurang akurat. Di Provinsi Banten, penyaluran bantuan sosial pada 2020 terhambat oleh data penerima. Pemindahan kas daerah Pemprov Banten dari Bank Banten ke BJB berdampak kepada keterlambatan bantuan yang akan disalurkan kepada masyarakat. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini akan menganalisis efektivitas metode penyaluran JPS dalam penanganan dampak pandemi Covid-19 di Provinsi Banten dengan fokus bantuan yang dialokasikan didalam APBD Pemerintah Provinsi Banten. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan dengan metode observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Data primer berasal dari interview dan pengisian kuesioner dari para responden yang dipilih secara sengaja (purposive sampling). Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa pemberian bantuan sosial JPS cukup membantu dan menjaga daya beli masyarakat, meskipun belum mampu menciptakan kesejahteraan sosial. Dari aspek sasaran, pemberian bansos JPS secara umum sudah tepat sasaran, meskipun masih terdapat berbagai masalah pendataan. Pemprov Banten perlu mengevaluasi data Keluarga Penerima Manfaat (KPM) yang bersumber dari data Non DTKS. Selanjutnya, Pemprov Banten harus mengubah pola penentuan KPM dengan pola bottom-up yang memberikan masukan ke pembuat keputusan di atasnya. Sinergitas pemerintah dan pihak Bank sebagai jasa penyalur harus terus diperkuat.

Authors: Lopes Paulo Cícero Borges , Pereira Luiz Andrei Gonçalves
Published: October 2023

Fatores de mudanças socioeconômicas induzem a criação de novas regionalizações no Brasil por meio da nova Divisão Regional em Regiões Geográficas Imediatas (RGImed) e Regiões Geográficas Intermediárias (RGInt). Entender a dinâmica econômica a partir de novas configurações regionais é importante para conhecer novos arranjos socioeconômicos, e uma variável que acompanha essas mudanças é o PIB (Produto Interno Bruto). O objetivo deste estudo é analisar a composição do PIB em novas regiões no norte do Estado de Minas Gerais (RGImed e RGInt Montes Claros), considerando a dependência dos municípios da participação do Valor Adicionado Bruto (VAB) da Administração, Defesa, Educação e Saúde públicas e Seguridade Social em 2018. A avaliação foi realizada por meio da decomposição de dados do PIB e população municipal de 2018, com classificação graduada de nível de Participação deste VAB para os municípios e as RGImed. Nas RGImed e RGInt Montes Claros há uma dependência econômica dos recursos da administração pública em 72% dos 86 municípios da RGImed, enquanto na RGInt Montes Claros 57%. A análise da participação do VAB Administração, Defesa, Educação e Saúde públicas e Seguridade Social no PIB municipal, através da classificação de dependência, revela disparidades regionais que necessitam de proposição de políticas públicas mais eficientes no intuito de diminuir as desigualdades socioeconômicas a fim de equilibrar a composição e distribuição do PIB nos municípios e regiões.

Authors: Coutinho Roberta Rodrigues , De Castro Cleber Marques
Published: October 2023

A mineração de areia é responsável por uma intensa modificação econômica e socioambiental em Seropédica, que afeta direta e indiretamente a comunidade local. Nosso objetivo é avaliar os impactos socioambientais e econômicos da mineração de areia e para tanto foram realizados estudos dos impactos baseados em pesquisas bibliográficas e trabalho de campo. Dentre os impactos negativos ocorre a depreciação da paisagem, a exposição do lençol freático, a alteração do pH da água e o surgimento de inúmeras cavas de mineração que são abandonadas e não possuem qualquer uso futuro apropriado. Em relação aos impactos positivos, há a dinamização do setor econômico, a arrecadação de impostos e a geração de empregos que foi maior no passado e atualmente apresenta saldo negativo. Apesar de ser a principal atividade econômica do município e de ter sido capaz de produzir diversas modificações na região, ela não proporcionou o desenvolvimento socioespacial esperado.

Gobal and regional chemical influence of sprites: Reconciling modeling results and measurements
Authors: Pérez-Invernón Francisco J. , Gordillo-Vázquez Francisco J. , Malagón-Romero Alejandro , Jöckel Patrick
Published: October 2023

Abstract. Mesospheric electrical discharges, known as sprites, formed by fast-propagating streamers, have been shown to create localized enhancements of atmospheric constituents such as N, O, NOx, N2O, and HOx, as indicated by both, modeling results and space-based measurements. In this study, we incorporate the occurrence rate of sprites into a chemistry-climate model using meteorological parameters as a proxy. Additionally, we introduce the injection of chemical species by sprites into the model, based on electrodynamical modeling of individual sprite streamers and observations from space. Our modeling results show a good agreement between the simulated sprite distribution and observed data on a global scale. While the global influence of sprites on the atmospheric chemistry is found to be negligible, our findings reveal their measurable chemical influence at regional scale, particularly for the concentration of HNO3 and HNO4 within the mesosphere. The simulations also suggest that sprites could be responsible for the observed NO2 anomalies at an altitude of 52 km above thunderstorms, as reported by MIPAS. Finally, a projected simulation reveals that the occurrence rate of sprites could increase at a rate of 14 % per 1 K rise in the global temperature.

Authors: Marston Christopher G. , O'Neil Aneurin W. , Morton R. Daniel , Wood Claire M. , Rowland Clare S.
Published: October 2023

Abstract. Land cover is a key environmental variable, underpinning widespread environmental research and decision making. The UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (UKCEH) has provided reliable land cover information since the early 1990s; this supports multiple scientific, government and commercial objectives. Recent advances in computation and satellite data availability have enabled annual UKCEH land cover maps since 2017. Here, we introduce the latest, annual UK Land Cover Map representing 2021 (LCM2021), and we describe its production and validation. LCM2021 methods replicate those of LCM2017 to LCM2020 with minor deviations in cloud-masking processes and training data sourcing to enhance accuracy. LCM2021 is based on the classification of satellite and spatial context data into 21 land cover or habitat classes, from which a product suite is derived. The production of LCM2021 involved three highly automated key stages: pre-processing of input data, image classification and production of the final data products. Google Earth Engine scripts were used to create an input data stack of satellite and context data. A set of training areas was created based on data harvested from historic UKCEH land cover maps. The training data were used to construct a random forest classifier, which yielded classified images. Compiled results were validated against 35 182 reference samples, with correspondence tables indicating variable class accuracy and an overall accuracy of 82.6 % for the 21-class data and 86.5 % at a 10-aggregated-classes level. The UK Land Cover Map product suite includes a set of raster products in various projections, thematic and spatial resolutions (10 m, 25 m and 1 km), and land–parcel or vector products. The data are provided in 21-class (all configurations) and aggregated 10-class (1 km raster products only) versions. All raster products are freely available for academic and non-commercial research. The data for Great Britain (GB) are provided in the British National Grid projection (EPSG: 27700) and the Northern Ireland (NI) data are in the TM75 Irish Grid (EPSG: 29903). Information on how to access the data is given in the “Data availability” section of the paper.

Published: October 2023

Abstract. Coastal wetland vegetation modulates water flow by exerting drag, which has important implications for sediment transport and geomorphic dynamics. This vegetation effect on flow is commonly represented in hydrodynamic models by approximating the vegetation as an array of vertical cylinders or increased bed roughness. However, this simple approximation may not be valid in the case of Rhizophora mangroves that have complicated three-dimensional root structures. Here, we present a new model to represent the impact of Rhizophora mangroves on flow in hydrodynamic models. The model explicitly accounts for the effects of the three-dimensional root structures on mean flow and turbulence as well as for the effects of two different length scales of vegetation-generated turbulence characterized by stem diameter and root diameter. The model employs an empirical model for the Rhizophora root structures that can be applied using basic vegetation parameters (mean stem diameter and tree density) without rigorous measurements of the root structures. We tested the model against the flows measured by previous studies in a model mangrove forest in the laboratory and an actual mangrove forest in the field, respectively. We show that, compared with the conventional approximation using an array of cylinders or increased bed roughness, the new model significantly improves the predictability of velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, and bed shear stress in Rhizophora mangrove forests. Overall, the presented new model offers a more realistic but feasible framework for simulating flows in Rhizophora mangrove forests with complex root structures using hydrodynamic models.

Published: October 2023

Abstract. In recent years, the possibility of using interoperable global constellations, the growing number of Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) and the technological progress of instrumentation, computing algorithms and GNSS products are significantly marking the evolution of the various satellite survey techniques and the diffusion of mass-market technologies contributing to innovation transfers in different sectors including smart cities, smart mobility, connected automated driving, precision farming and others (Egea-Roca et al., 2022).Currently, the study of low-cost GNSS systems for navigation and precision positioning especially utilised in monitoring applications is the focus of numerous research activities (Joubert et al., 2020; Raza et al., 2022; Bellone et al., 2016; Hamza et al., 2020).The aim of this work is to test the performance of some of the latest generation multi-constellation and multi-frequency GNSS medium and low-cost sensors, evaluating their possible application in the mentioned fields. Differential and undifferential techniques were compared (Dardanelli et al., 2021; Ocalan et al.,2016); Precise Point Positioning (PPP) has become a valid alternative to differential methods allowing to obtain comparable accuracy offering greater flexibility (Lin, 2021). The multi-constellation permanent stations network GPS-Umbria was utilised for differential mode tests (Radicioni and Stoppini, 2019).The tests were carried out in different modes (static and kinematic) and operating conditions; various intermediate and low-cost sensors were employed, while the data of a high precision geodetic receiver were used as reference for the comparison of the different solutions.

Abstract. Neural Radiance Field methods are innovative solutions to derive 3D data from a set of oriented images. This paper introduces new real and synthetic image datasets - called NeRFBK - specifically designed for testing and comparing NeRF-based 3D reconstruction algorithms. More and more reconstruction algorithms and techniques are available nowadays, raising the need to evaluate and compare the quality of derived 3D products currently used in various domains and applications. However, gathering diverse data with precise ground truth is challenging and may not encompass all relevant applications. The NeRFBK dataset addresses this issue by providing multi-scale, indoor and outdoor datasets with high-resolution images and videos and camera parameters for testing and comparing NeRF-based algorithms. This paper presents the design and creation of the NeRFBK set of data, various examples and application scenarios, and highlights its potential for advancing the field of 3D reconstruction.
CENAGIS-ALS BENCHMARK - NEW PROPOSAL FOR DENSE ALS BENCHMARK BASED ON THE REVIEW OF DATASETS AND BENCHMARKS FOR 3D POINT CLOUD SEGMENTATION
Authors: Zachar P. , Bakuła K. , Ostrowski W.
Published: October 2023

Abstract. Benchmarking is an essential tool for scientific and technological progress. This article reviews the benchmarks for 3D point cloud segmentation and classification. Based on the analysis of the articles and the knowledge gathered, it can be concluded that there has been an increase in the number of benchmarks, allowing to compare research results against specific performance metrics independently. However, benchmarks vary regarding the number of classes, spatial size, nomenclature, and class division. In this article, we introduce a new annotated 3D dataset - CENAGIS-ALS Benchmark. We propose a benchmark of highly dense lidar point clouds acquired by Leica CityMapper-2 for the Centre of Warsaw, Poland. The area covers 2 km2, and the data has a density of 275 pts/m2. The dataset consists of a number of classes that are distinguishable for this type of data. In addition to the basic classes, more specialized classes, important from the perspective of urban space, are also distinguished. Moreover, the division of classes consists of three levels of detail from coarse (e.g., a building) to refined elements (e.g., roofs, chimneys, and other rooftop objects). This benchmark can contribute to geospatial societies, considering the large spatial size of the study area with unified data quality and the higher number of classes with the hierarchical division compared to other benchmarking data.

Abstract The agreements on the preparatory measures to be implemented before Turkey participates in the Education and Youth Programs, which are one of the most important instruments of European Union integration, were signed by Turkey and the European Union Commission and entered into force on December 27, 2002. The European Union Education and Youth Programs are included under three general programs and aim to improve the quality of education across the member states and strengthen cooperation in this area by improving the European dimension in the field of education. Universities, schools, public institutions and organizations, as well as the private sector, non-governmental organizations and professional organizations can benefit from the programs. In all countries, the introduction, coordination, implementation of programs within the country and the evaluation and selection of most of the projects to benefit from the programs in the country are carried out by National Agencies in cooperation with the European Commission and the national authorities of other countries. The European Union launched these programs in 1995 with the aim of creating a European identity, ensuring equality of opportunity in education and maintaining education throughout life. Leonardo is aimed at vocational education, Socrates is aimed at all areas of education. Youth programs are aimed at young people outside of school. The General European Framework is also a continuation of these projects and has been accepted as a framework in the same sense. The General European Framework thus summarizes foreign language teaching and the concepts that it should contain. By introducing these concepts, it is aimed to show that Turkish as a foreign language can also be taught by using the same educational programs as in Europe. In this direction, the fact that Turkey is a member of the European Union and the teaching of the Turkish language to Europe and other nations as a foreign language is an issue that is becoming increasingly important.

Cows with limb pathologies have a decrease in milk productivity and a deterioration in its quality. One of the key points in preventive measures is orthopedic trimming of the hoof horn, which should be carried out at least once every 6 months. Recently, the use of hoof baths with various preparations has become very popular. HOOF Liquid F2 is an innovative hoof treatment and care product. "HOOF Liquid F2" is a concentrated multicompositional agent that has strong disinfecting, bactericidal and drying properties, promotes the process of normal horn formation. Carrying out these preventive measures made it possible to reduce the spread of pathologies of the distal extremities in 8 months to 25.0%, which indicates high efficiency. The use of hoof baths with HOOF Liquid F2 in a complex of therapeutic measures allows you to achieve a more pronounced therapeutic effect in a shorter period of time.

One of the ways to significantly influence the success of exploratory studies of new chemical drug candidates is to use the principles of rational drug design, associated both with the development of bioinformation technologies and with the implementation of effective models for predicting the potential biological activity of the substance under study. The main purpose of this article is to review and summarize the main features of the rational design of medicinal products for veterinary use. The search and processing of scientific publications were carried out according to the recommendations of H. Snyder for writing review articles. In English and Russian, thematic publications were searched in bibliographic databases (Elibrary, CyberLeninka, Pubmed, Scopus (Elsevier), Web of Science (Clarivate)) using the keywords: “drug development”, “drag design” , “structurally based drag design” with further highlighting of the most cited ones. Articles published before 2013 were used only if they contained information critical to the topic that was missing in later publications. Rational drug design is the most relevant area of research in the field of drug development. This approach makes it possible to predict in advance the properties of synthesized structures. Using modern computer modeling and data analysis techniques, organic chemists can effectively design molecules with desired pharmacological properties. Rational drug design is an extremely promising area in pharmacological science.

Pain that occurs in a surgical patient in the area of surgical intervention is called surgical pain. Postoperative analgesia is one of the most important components in the system of general intensive care, which creates comfortable living conditions for the surgical patient. In veterinary practice, the central non-opioid analgesic Nefopam has become available, which has a structural affinity for diphenhydramine (Diphenhydramine) and orphenadrine and has both spinal and supraspinal mechanisms of action. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nefopam as part of multimodal analgesia in the postoperative period in dogs. For the study were selected 20 dogs aged 1 to 10 years who underwent radical surgery requiring multicomponent anesthesia. The animals were divided into 2 groups of 10 dogs each. Surgical interventions were performed under conditions of general combined anesthesia according to standard protocols of the clinic using neuroleptics, anesthetics, non-narcotic painkillers. In the postoperative period, a non-opioid centrally acting analgesic, Nefopam, was introduced into the scheme of multimodal analgesia in the animals of the experimental group, and Analgin was administered to the dogs of the control group. The level of pain of the visual analog scale for assessing pain according to VAS. To assess the health status of experimental animals before surgery and on the 3rd and 7th days after it, blood was taken for biochemical and clinical studies. The use of Nefopam in the complex of multimodal analgesia used in the clinic is therapeutically justified and effective. It is this kind of analgesia that makes it possible to fully and safely anesthetize patients after extensive and traumatic operations with minimal consumption of non-opioid and opioid analgesics.

In recent years, several studies have been published that suggest that L-carnitine supplementation may affect weight in some animal species and humans, and may also affect the body composition of growing animals. Currently, only a few results are available on the effects of L-carnitine on weight loss and body composition in animals. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to find out whether injections of L-carnitine can influence the dynamics of the weight of laboratory animals. Toxicity studies were conducted on outbred rats in October 2021 in the vivarium of the St. Petersburg State University of Veterinary Medicine. The study involved females weighing 190-210 grams, purchased from the Federal State Unitary Enterprise “Nursery of Laboratory Animals “RAPPOLOVO”. When studying subchronic toxicity after subcutaneous and intramuscular administration, L-carnitine was administered at 2 dose levels. Doses were determined based on the results of the acute toxicity experiment: 1/5 and 1/10 of the maximum tolerated dose. The first experimental group (n=10) received the drug intramuscularly at a dose of 0.08 mg/kg (1/5 of 2000 mg/kg). The second experimental group (n=10) received the drug intramuscularly at a dose of 0.04 mg/kg (1/10 of 2000 mg/kg). The third experimental group received subcutaneous L -carnitine at a dose of 0.08 mg/kg (1/5 of 2000 mg/kg), the fourth experimental group received subcutaneous L-carnitine at a dose of 1/10 of the maximum tolerated (2000 mg/kg body weight). Group 5 was the control group (n=10) and received sodium chloride 0.09% intramuscularly at a dose of 1/5 of 2000 mg/kg, group 6 was the control group and received sodium chloride 0.09% subcutaneously at a dose of 1/5 of 2000 mg /kg. As a result of studies of subchronic toxicity on laboratory animals of the drug L-carnitine for veterinary use with subcutaneous and intramuscular administration, it was established that a dosage of 1/5 of the maximum tolerated, and a dosage of 1/10 of the maximum tolerated, does not cause changes in the dynamics of body weight animals.

Published: October 2023

African swine fever (ASF) is the most dangerous viral disease of domestic pigs and wild boars, causing huge economic damage. It is characterized by acute, subacute, chronic course with high (up to 100%) mortality. The causative agent of ASF has been isolated into a separate family Asfarviridae, the genus Asfivirus. The disease is widespread in Africa, Europe, Asia. The purpose of the review article is to analyze the literature data on the occurrence and spread of epizootic foci of African swine fever in Western Europe. The materials of the article are based on the results of numerous epizootological and diagnostic studies by scientists from Spain, Portugal, Belgium, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Malta, Germany, Sweden.

Due to the complex seroimmune structure of the pathogen and the impossibility of forming viral neutralizing antibodies, there are difficulties in creating effective vaccines against ASF. The main tools for preventing the spread of the disease are due to the use of strict quarantine measures. Early diagnosis is an important component of ASF control and eradication.

Preventive and liquidation measures for ASF in Western European countries are considered. The recommendations of the OIE/WOAH-OIE on the diagnosis of ASF using a combination of tests are given: determination of the viral genome by PCR in national reference laboratories; detection of viral antigens and antibodies by ELISA or fluorescent test; detection of the pathogen by virus isolation. The explanation of the observed interspecific interaction during the watering of wild boars and free-range domestic pigs is given, which explains the endemicity of ASF on the island of Sardinia in Italy for more than forty years.

Given the virulence of the ASF virus and the many ways of transmission throughout Europe, diagnostic and epizootological monitoring of this disease should be a priority in the fight against ASF.

Indonesia is a country that has a variety of cultures and languages. Madura is one of the ethnic groups in Indonesia which has a very distinctive culture. In culture aspect, the Madurese people hold tightly to the traditions and customs passed down by their predecessors, both in terms of language, religion, art and so on. in Madura with the culture or culture of the people who are considered to be able to hinder the process of services being provided to all levels of society in Madura. The purpose of writing is to explain the 5 dimensions of service strategy according to David Osborne and Pieter Plastrik, namely core strategy, consequence strategy, customer strategy, control strategy and cultural strategy. The research method in this paper is descriptive qualitative research with an inductive approach. The results of this study are that the strategy used is quite good in fulfilling the indicators in the service strategy, but there is still one strategy that has not been optimally implemented, namely the cultural strategy related to communication carried out which is based on communication theory which is still not optimal because the delivery of communication is still not adjusted with the Madurese community so that in order to be able to provide the best service for every level of society, the Pamekasan Immigration Office needs to optimize and adapt more to the conditions of the local community with a service strategy approach, namely the cultural strategy and communication theory used.
Unwanted Arbitrariness
Authors: Bruers Stijn
Published: October 2023

I propose a new fundamental principle in ethics: everyone who makes a choice has to avoid unwanted arbitrariness as much as possible. Unwanted arbitrariness is defi ned as making a choice without following a rule, whereby the consequences of that choice cannot be consistently wanted by at least one person. Other formulations of this anti-arbitrariness principle are given and compared with very similar contractualist principles formulated by Kant, Rawls, Scanlon and Parfit. The structure of arbitrariness allows us to fi nd ways to avoid unwanted arbitrariness. The two most important implications of the anti-arbitrariness principle are discussed: non-dictatorship and non-discrimination.
