Authors: Col Jeanne-Marie
Published: June 2022

More than 246,000 people were killed in the 1976 Tangshan Earthquake. In Qinglong County, despite the collapse of 180,000 buildings, no deaths were attributable to the earthquake and its aftershocks. The case of Qinglong County illustrates excellent coordination among public administrators, scientists and citizens and features pro-active policies, local government initiative, thorough implementation, delegation, information sharing, and citizen participation. These lessons are applied to the response to Hurricane Katrina in the United States in 2005.

Authors: Qiao Yuhua
Published: June 2022

Discussion of how to develop a modern tax system is important for the Chinese government with China's urbanization and economic development and with the enlarged income gap among its population. This paper explores the strengths and weaknesses of China's tax system by applying the criteria that scholars use in judging revenue sources. The existing Chinese tax system is regressive, complex, and lacks revenue adequacy. To correct its weaknesses, several tax reform recommendations are made. This includes broadening individual income tax among top income individuals and expanding the circle gradually, expanding consumption tax, and eliminating unnecessary preferential tax treatments in all taxes.

Efforts to Improve Community Legal Literature on Peer-to-Peer Lending
Online lending or known as peer-to-peer lending is increasingly rife in the community. The fast process and simple requirements make many people interested in borrowing on online loan applications. However, behind these conveniences, many problems are born after the disbursement of loans, such as: 1. Payment time/maturity is too fast; 2. Suffocating loan interest; 3. High administrative costs are deducted on the loan nominal, but the principal of the loan is still calculated from the total amount of disbursement; 4. Terror of online loan companies due to late payments. The solution to this problem, the public must be given education through legal counseling about online peer to peer lending to members of the TP PKK Sumbersekar Village so that they can understand the risks of online loans and their prevention steps. The method used in this devotion is counseling. The results of the service show that partners have received and understood material about peer-to-peer lending based on right answer for the question that asked by the conselor.
Ecological monitoring of the atmosphere close to Salaryevo landfill
Authors: Kovrigin Artur A. , Slesarev Mikhail Yu.
Published: June 2022

Introduction. Today air safety problems affect the interests of all countries. The object of the study is atmospheric air above the territory of Salaryevo, a closed solid waste landfill, located in the Leninsky district of the Moscow region to the south of Salaryevo village. To improve the environmental safety of the adjacent territory, the landfill was subjected to the two-stage reclamation procedure. The state of the main components of the natural environment, namely, water, soil, and air, was monitored after the reclamation. The authors consider environmental monitoring as a set of measures to track the state of the main components of the environment, or the atmosphere above a closed solid waste landfill. The main task of monitoring actions is to track changes in the core environmental parameters, identify sources and causes of environmental degradation, and develop recommendations for optimizing environmental protection activities at the landfill.

Materials and methods. Rosprirodnadzor (Federal Service for Supervision of Natural Resources) presented a list of 163 methods for calculating harmful (polluting) substances emitted by stationary sources into the atmospheric air, only 15 of which are duly approved by the authorized federal executive authorities. However, there is no methodology for assessing air pollution near landfills designated for solid industrial and domestic wastes. Hence, the research and analysis of monitoring findings near Salaryevo landfill are relevant.

Results. The ongoing monitoring of the main components of the environment allow to make most accurate forecasts of changes in environmental conditions under the influence of waste disposal and the best solutions towards the optimization of process flows underway at the landfill. In the course of the landfill reclamation and upon its completion, the authors studied the stability of changes in the air environment to predict any unforeseen accidental emissions of landfill gases. Selected samples were compared with maximally allowable concentration values in terms of their impact on human health, fauna and flora of the urban environment.

Conclusions. The conclusion is that background concentrations of harmful substances in the atmospheric air are below maximally allowable concentration values. These values were obtained as a result of the air monitoring in the course and upon completion of reclamation actions. The environmental safety monitoring model, simulating the operation of technical facilities and engineering systems of Salaryevo landfill, meets the requirements of “green” technologies against the comfort and safety criteria applicable in an urban area located near a landfill.
Analytical and numerical studies on the scouring of a pile foundation of a marine terminal
Authors: Kantarzhi Izmail G. , Gogin Alexander G. , Kuprin Alexander V.
Published: June 2022

Introduction. The purpose of the work is to assess potential scouring of the bottom soil of a designed marine terminal resting on a pile foundation to prevent the bottom erosion caused by wind waves and currents.

Materials and methods. The authors have analyzed those effective regulatory documents that could be potentially used to study erosion near pile foundations of marine terminal structures. Numerical modelling of lithodynamic processes was conducted in the mooring basin area in extreme weather conditions, like severe storms, to study soil erosion near the hydraulic structures of the marine terminal.

Results. Having analyzed the method used to assess local erosion pursuant to VSP 33-03-07 (Industry-wide set of rules 33-03-07), the authors concluded that it had major fundamental drawbacks and, therefore, it could not be applied to a multi-row pile structure. Therefore, it could not guarantee the required accuracy of projections. The authors presented the numerical modelling of wind waves, currents and lithodynamic processes to study the wave erosion on the bottom of the mooring basin of the marine terminal. Towards this end, a three-level system of interconnected models was designed. It had a model of wind waves, a model of currents and changes in sea levels and a lithodynamic model.

Conclusions. Having considered a method for assessing local erosion, described in VSP 33-03-07 (Industry-wide set of rules 33-03-07), engineering and geological conditions near the NZMU marine terminal, as well as the structural solutions contributed to the project, the authors believe that this method cannot be applied to reliably analyze local erosion near the pile supports of a sea terminal. Simulated lithodynamic processes, that are underway near the pile supports of designed mooring structures, suggest that anticipated erosion, caused by severe storms, did not exceed 25 cm and no complete erosion funnel was formed around the pile. Sediment accumulation zones appeared on the windward side of the piles. They were larger than the zones of erosion. Therefore, the authors assume that the influence of lithodynamic processes on the stability of pile supports is insignificant during the operation of hydraulic structures of the marine terminal.

Authors: Arkhipov Boris V. , Shapochkin Dmitry A. , Lobov Alexander L. , Batov Vladimir I. , Tikhonova Olga V.
Published: June 2022

Introduction. The paper provides information on hydrodynamic and lithodynamic characteristics of processes in the Caspian Sea. A description of applied hydrodynamic models is presented. The numerical simulation of circulation, wave and lithodynamic conditions in the waters of the Northern Caspian Sea, middle and southern parts of the Caspian Sea was first conducted using composite computational grids. Simulated sediment transport results are presented. Results of numerical calculations of sediment accumulations in the second sweep of the Volga-Caspian canal are discussed.

Materials and methods. Numerical modeling of coastal wave and hydrodynamic processes is performed using the Delft3d morphodynamic computer model. The Delft3D wave module includes a SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore) model for calculating the propagation and generation of waves. The hydrodynamic flow is simulated using the FLOW module, that solves non-stationary hydrodynamic equations and has a sediment transfer unit.

Results. Computational grids are generated; they have a large step equal to 5,000 m. One grid is built for the middle and southern parts of the Caspian Sea and the other is made for the Northern Caspian; the grid step is equal to 1,000 m. The height and direction of significant waves in the Northern Caspian are provided. Sediment flows, averaged over 210 days in the SC, are provided. The authors also provide graphs of cumulative accumulation/erosion in the second sweep of the Volga-Caspian canal.

Conclusions. The authors show that the average yearly shore-parallel sediment flow in the area of the marine edge of the Volga river delta has a southwesterly direction, and an estimate of its magnitude is provided. An assessment of sediment accumulation in the Volga-Caspian canal is made, and its results are compared with the data obtained in the course of dredging works.
Reducing operating costs through modernization of reverse osmosis facilities used to produce drinking water
Authors: Pervov Alexey G. , Spitsov Dmitriy V.
Published: June 2022

Introduction. The authors address problems of operation of reverse osmosis facilities, used to treat ground water and produce drinking water; they also focus on operating cost reduction strategies. Nanofiltration membranes may reduce operating costs, concentrate consumption, and sedimentation. A smaller antiscalant dosage can also reduce the cost of chemicals. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the ecological and economic efficiency of the new technique.

Materials and methods. The authors conducted groundwater treatment experiments to reduce groundwater hardness and ammonia content. Scaling rates and the composition of water, produced by each membrane module, were determined in each membrane module depending on coefficient K values.

Results. The relationships, identified in the course of experiments, enabled the authors to calculate the number of membranes required to reach the designed efficiency value. The design of a membrane facility, tailored to a certain groundwater composition, is presented; membrane models and treatment efficiency values are identified. The use of nanofiltration membranes reduces the operating costs by 40 percent due to the lower consumption of antiscalants, power, and concentrate.

Conclusions. The research has proven that the replacement of reverse osmosis membranes by nanofiltration membranes at the water treatment facilities in operation ensures a 40–50 percent increase in their production capacity. The water quality remains the same and meets the WHO standards. Also, the concentrate consumption rate goes down 10–20-fold. The authors have also found out that the use of nanofiltration membranes reduces the water hardness and ammonia content at lower pressure values and scaling rates, although the safe operation and higher efficiency are in place. The proposed modernization strategy reduces operating costs by 40–50 percent through membrane replacement without any changes in the membrane design.

A variational quantum algorithm for the Feynman-Kac formula
Authors: Alghassi Hedayat , Deshmukh Amol , Ibrahim Noelle , Robles Nicolas , Woerner Stefan , Zoufal Christa
Published: June 2022

We propose an algorithm based on variational quantum imaginary time evolution for solving the Feynman-Kac partial differential equation resulting from a multidimensional system of stochastic differential equations. We utilize the correspondence between the Feynman-Kac partial differential equation (PDE) and the Wick-rotated Schrödinger equation for this purpose. The results for a (2+1) dimensional Feynman-Kac system obtained through the variational quantum algorithm are then compared against classical ODE solvers and Monte Carlo simulation. We see a remarkable agreement between the classical methods and the quantum variational method for an illustrative example on six and eight qubits. In the non-trivial case of PDEs which are preserving probability distributions – rather than preserving the ℓ2-norm – we introduce a proxy norm which is efficient in keeping the solution approximately normalized throughout the evolution. The algorithmic complexity and costs associated to this methodology, in particular for the extraction of properties of the solution, are investigated. Future research topics in the areas of quantitative finance and other types of PDEs are also discussed.

Published: June 2022

Ekonomi negara yang terkena penyakit COVID-19 mengalami penurunan. Pemerintah Indonesia dalam kegiatan untuk membangkitkan kembali ekonomi Indonesia paska COVID-19 merencanakan Pemulihan Ekonomi Nasional (PEN). Salah satu yang menjadi kegiatan dalam pemulihan ekonomi nasional adalah mendukung ekspor dan impor. Permintaan ekspor yang meningkat akan menyebabkan permintaan mata uang domestik naik dan nilai tukar rupiah menguat. Impor yang besar akan menyebabkan permintaan akan mata uang negara lain meningkat sehingga mata uang domestik melemah. Pergerakan nilai dari ekspor dan impor ini bisa menentukan apakah negara sedang mengalami surplus atau defisit. Hal ini membuat prediksi perubahan nilai ekspor dan impor yang akan datang menjadi penting. Penelitian ini akan membandingkan metode Moving Average dan Exponential Smoothing dalam prediksi nilai ekspor dan impor. Mean Absolute Percent Error (MAPE) digunakan sebagai perhitungan kesalahan prediksi. Alat yang digunakan untuk perhitungan adalah POM-QM Windows. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa metode Exponential Smoothing dengan a = 0.7 adalah metode terbaik untuk prediksi nilai ekspor Indonesia dan metode Moving Average adalah metode terbaik untuk prediksi nilai impor Indonesia.

Authors: Mora José Manuel , Solano-Goméz Rebeca
Published: June 2022

Introducción: El tamaño de las áreas protegidas a menudo es insuficiente para mantener poblaciones viables de depredadores, lo que provoca una superposición de hábitats con los humanos. Los conflictos resultantes, por ejemplo, la depredación de animales domésticos, afectan negativamente tanto a la vida silvestre como al bienestar humano. Objetivo: Estimar el impacto económico de los conflictos entre humanos y vida silvestre en la Reserva Biológica Alberto Brenes, Alajuela, Costa Rica. Métodos: Entre octubre de 2017 y abril de 2018, entrevistamos a 59 administradores de propiedades en y cerca de la zona de amortiguamiento de la reserva. Fueron elegidos por informes de conflictos y referencias de "bola de nieve". Resultados: Los animales silvestres mataron 1 846 animales domésticos del 2000 al 2018, con una pérdida económica de $48 000. El coyote, Canis latrans, mató 1 074 animales, con un valor de $4 000; datos equivalentes: felinos 261 animales, $21 000; serpientes 33 animales (terciopelo, Bothrops asper: $18 000). El tratamiento veterinario para 28 animales sobrevivientes costó $3 000. Conclusión: Aunque el coyote mató más animales, los felinos y las serpientes produjeron el mayor costo económico. Una adecuada intervención institucional reduciría el problema.

Authors: Muñoz Burbano Zulma , Marmolejo Avenia Gustavo Adolfo , Prada Núñez Raúl
Published: June 2022

The purpose of this research is to characterise how one of the most widely used physics textbooks in the southwest of Colombia deals with the rupture between classical physics and quantum physics. In order to achieve the proposed objective, a qualitative methodology with a documentary analysis approach was used. As units of analysis, we considered the spaces where the textbook makes explicit content associated with Modern Physics. Two levels of analysis were considered: the content associated with Quantum Theory and the crisis of Classical Physics in the face of the impossibility of explaining some quantum phenomena. The results indicated that the contents addressed in the textbook do not focus on the crisis of Classical Physics. Therefore, it is necessary for Colombian educators who use the book analysed to prepare and develop their classes to appropriate a Quantum Theory that allows them to overcome this limitation.
