The risk of additional branch works in the construction of railway projects
Authors: Lesniak Agnieszka , Janowiec Filip , Rueda Benavides Jorge
Published: June 2024

Every decision or action taken as part of a construction project involves risk. Unforeseen branch works that may occur during the construction investment are the so-called additional work. They cause risk, both for the contractor and the investor. Skilful management of this risk may lead to minimizing the change in the investment duration or minimizing the change in the cost of the contractual amount. The work proposes a method of analysing the risk of industrial works that may occur during additional works in railway construction investments. A constructed Bayesian network based on the risk component of industrial works was used for the analysis. Bayesian networks are listed as one of the 31 techniques suggested for risk analysis in accordance with the ISO 31010 standard, which enables the correct analysis of the examined problem with satisfactory accuracy. During the construction of the network, historical data was obtained from completed and settled railway infrastructure construction projects, and 125 unique records corresponding to additional works were identified. The created Bayesian network combines technological aspects resulting from the specificity of the implementation of branch works in railway construction projects with a practical assessment of their risk. The proposed network model allows for risk analysis by defining various event scenarios, and has high application capacity resulting from the ease of applying its results in practice in the implementation of railway investments.
A political ecology of shifting commons in the Pyrenees: Shepherds on the edge of production and amenity-based capitalism after the reintroduction of bears
Authors: Pons-Raga Ferran
Published: June 2024

The brown bear reintroduction program in the Pyrenees was launched in 1996, once their population was considered extinct in the central parts of the mountain range. The increasing number of livestock casualties caused by bear attacks forced the public administrations to adopt a package of protection measures, which included hiring mountain shepherds to tend the local farmers' flocks during the summer grazing season. Although these measures were deemed to restore age-old communal shepherding practices that had recently been abandoned by bringing together bears, livestock, and shepherds in the high mountain pastures, the bear program has produced an overlap of communal and state-driven territorialities. Drawing attention to the ambiguous position of mountain shepherds within a new pastoralism-conservation network, situated between local farmers and bear program's decision-makers, this article argues that the commons must be taken into consideration as it persists in current times, even within a high-modern territoriality unfolded under different forms of environmentality. The shepherds epitomize the hybridization of different territorialities, situated on the edge of the production-based economy developed by the local farmers and the amenity-based economy behind the bear reintroduction program. There is a shared, though differentiated capitalist view of natural resources. Using the main theories of power in political ecology and taking the variables of 'format, management, governance, and institution' to frame the commons as an enduring local collective farming resource, this article scrutinizes the collision between the two types of capitalism, usually misidentified as a rural-urban divide. It also shows the extent to which the shifting existence of the commons, crystallized through the ambiguous position of the shepherds, may provide us with a fruitful toolkit to better understanding human-wildlife conflicts based on the cleavage between farming and conservationist sectors.

Authors: Sanchaniya Rashmi Jaymin , Singh Harmeet , Kundziņa Antra , Jansons Leo , Naimavičienė Jurga
Published: June 2024

The success of the construction sector is dependent on its diverse workforce and its role in driving growth. India’s economy is significantly tied to construction, especially residential and commercial projects. Effective project management relies on technical, knowledge-based, and soft skills. Realistic management techniques and stakeholder relationships are vital for success. The transition from construction to operations occurs during the handover phase. Developing project management competence is crucial in the midst of failures and delays. This study aims to improve Indian construction through a model developed through an online survey of civil engineering, architecture, and project management professionals. Factor analysis identifies key success factors grouped into project management competency, environmental factors, financial viability, operational efficiency, and structural safety. Recommendations involve the adoption of technology such as BIM, skill enhancement, and sustainability promotion, which can address sectoral challenges and support Indian construction growth. Further research is suggested for industries and global construction contexts. Insights are relevant for Indian construction professionals.
Contract price change during the construction phase: unforeseen market conditions
Authors: Suman Natasa , Tominc Stanko
Published: June 2024

The unstable economic conditions that have been in place in the Slovenian and international construction markets reveal the problem of a disproportionate increase in the prices of construction materials and energy products. Such increases will therefore result in higher costs of construction services, which would ultimately affect the total value of the construction project. These events in turn bring uncertainty to the construction project and would negatively impact the business of construction companies and investors. Legal and construction practices have so far developed various ways to regulate contract changes arising due to unforeseen market conditions. The present paper offers a contribution to the contract price change solution during the construction phase. The introduction first presents the measures and guidelines that deal with the differences in contract prices in Slovenia and some other countries. Then, various methods of calculating price differences that have emerged in current Slovenian practice are described. As a result, a proposal for a hybrid method of monthly price difference calculation is presented. The hybrid method represents a balanced solution resulting from the unforeseen increase in construction material prices on the market and is applicable to all construction projects. The three methods, i.e., a calculation method, a method based on the GZS-ZGIGM index, and a hybrid method, are applied to a real example of a public contract. The calculation of the price valorisation, represented as an index of the recognised price increases of contract works, is carried out. The results are compared, and further solutions are proposed.

Published: June 2024

This paper presents a new model reference adaptive-based control (MRAC) for a single-phase shift-modulated dual active bridge DC-DC converter (SPS-DAB) with constant power loading (CPL). The non-linear control algorithm, developed based on the reduced order model of the converter, is subjected to a thorough stability and convergence analysis. The efficacy of the proposed control strategy is verified through simulations conducted on MATLAB R2023a and PLECS 4.5.6, demonstrating its capability to counteract the destabilising effects of the CPL, while ensuring precise tracking of the dual active bridge (DAB) output voltage, even amidst parameter variations. Comparative analysis highlights the superior robustness and performance of the proposed approach over the conventional proportional-integral (PI) controllers.

PT Minarak Gas Brantas Inc.'s operations in the Wunut Field involve the production of waste in various forms, primarily liquid waste, with produced water being the most significant type. Proper management of this produced water waste is crucial to prevent environmental pollution and ensure economic and environmental sustainability. The company manages this waste by reinjecting it into the reservoir to prevent groundwater contamination. To ensure the effectiveness of this reinjection process, they have created a groundwater flow pattern map (flow net) at three locations near the injection well: LP1 in Keduung Boto Village, LP2 in Candi Pari Village, and LP3 in Candi Pari Village, all in Sidoarjo Regency. This helps in understanding the potential spread of pollutants in the soil and underground water, aiding in environmental pollution monitoring and managment.The groundwater from this area is used for various human activities like bathing, cooking, and washing. However, based on water quality standards outlined in Ministry of Health Regulation No. 2 of 2023, the produced water from Well X-1 in the Wunut Field does not meet the required TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) content standards due to a decline in hydrocarbon fluid production, resulting in a separator efficiency of 74,86%. Additionally, lab tests and flow net results indicate that the TDS levels in LP1, LP2, and LP3 do not meet the sanitation and hygiene water quality standards, suggesting potential seepage in these locations that could contaminate groundwater.

Published: June 2024

A new range of threats arose at the beginning of the 21st century, and the current global and national security systems could not respond effectively. Climate change threatens human health and well-being. Extreme weather events, food and water shortages, and the growth of infectious diseases increase the burden on healthcare systems. Progress in international health partnerships in 2022 has stalled and, in some cases, is reversing. The constant increase in the cost of medical services and medicines has a negative impact on the effectiveness of the functioning of national healthcare systems. Out-of-pocket healthcare costs cause financial hardship for more than 930 million people and push about 90 million into extreme poverty each year. If current trends continue, the World Health Organization predicts that by 2030, up to 5 billion people will be unable to access or afford health services. For further advancement in global health security and to ensure better health for all in a changing world, reducing the cost and guaranteeing access for indigent patients to innovative medicines for treating a wide range of life-threatening diseases is essential. To minimize the cost and ensure access to medicines, it is proposed to create international research centers for developing innovative medicines without patent protection with centralized funding and appropriate planning for high-level interdisciplinary fundamental and applied research based on the needs of healthcare systems worldwide.

Authors: KUZYK Ihor , 14.	Fenton Roman
Published: June 2024

The article analyses and geoecological assessment of the structure of land use in the Velykoberezovytska community. It has been established that the structure of land use in the study area is dominated by arable land (68%), forests occupy 13%, built-up land – 7%, pastures – 4%, hayfields – 4%, perennial plantations – 3%, land under water and marshes – 1%. The share of natural lands in the community is 25%. Based on the results of the calculations, the coefficient of anthropogenic transformation of the territory of the Velykoberezovytska territorial community was determined, which is 4.7; the coefficient of environmental stability – 0.29; bal anthropogenic load – 3.7 and the coefficient of anthropogenic load – 3.7. According to the results obtained, it was found that the territory of the Velykoberezovytska territorial community is ecologically unstable with transformed landscapes, a fairly high score and an average degree of anthropogenic pressure.
The article substantiates the optimisation model of land use of the Velykoberezovytska territorial community, which provides for a 25% reduction in arable land, increasing forest cover by 12% and bringing the share of natural lands to the optimal level of 50%. It has been established that, if such an optimisation model is implemented, the territory of the Velykoberezovytska community will move from the status of a greenhouse gas emitter to a sink. The community's land will absorb more than 13,5 tonnes of greenhouse gases annually.

Published: June 2024

Objetivo: Discutir o uso da semaglutida em pacientes com DM2, analisando o benefício de sua adesão terapêutica. Revisão bibliográfica: A alta incidência do diabetes mellitus do tipo 2 (DM2) alerta para a necessidade do desenvolvimento de terapias diversas, a exemplo da semaglutida, para o manejo clínico adequado a esses pacientes. O desenvolvimento do DM2 leva a uma disfunção metabólica, complicações microvasculares e macrovasculares. Neste contexto, evidencia-se o uso da semaglutida (por via oral ou subcutânea), um composto incretinomimético, com 94% de similaridade ao hormônio GLP-1. Mediante a testes clínicos realizados por diversos estudos, este fármaco apresentou resultados promissores levando a uma diminuição média de 0,9% da HbA1c, queda média de 4,3 kg, além de apresentar baixo risco hipoglicêmico e auxiliar no manejo do peso corporal. Considerações finais: Dado os riscos de complicações associados ao DM2 e a sua progressiva incidência populacional é de extrema relevância o conhecimento acerca do uso de semaglutida como alternativa de tratamentos com anti-hiperglicêmicos.

Objetivo: Analisar como ocorre o desenvolvimento de síndromes oculares a partir do uso de tecnologias digitais e, ainda, como prevenir o aparecimento e a progressão de patologias e distúrbios visuais em crianças e adolescentes. Revisão bibliográfica: Atualmente, diversas atividades que antes eram realizadas de forma física ou manual têm sido realizadas através das tecnologias digitais, seja para estudo, lazer e/ou trabalho. Com essas modificações, surgem preocupações acerca da sobrecarga sensorial, sobretudo visual, associada ao uso excessivo de dispositivos eletrônicos. Estudos indicam correlações entre o uso prolongado de telas e o desenvolvimento de problemas oculares, como miopia, além de sintomas da Síndrome da Visão do Computador, como olhos secos e visão turva. Além disso, em crianças, ocorre o agravamento do problema pela falta de percepção das alterações visuais, o que pode resultar em diagnósticos tardios. Considerações finais: É importante que sejam realizadas mais pesquisas para compreender melhor os impactos do uso de telas, buscando formas de tratamento para os sintomas oculares que parecem ser decorrentes do uso excessivo de telas. Como forma de minimizar esse impacto, recomenda-se uma exposição limitada às telas, supervisionadas por responsáveis, especialmente em crianças menores de dois anos.

Technology is a necessary component of life and has an effect on it. The existence of technology has pushed the economy in a digital direction, which is continuing to grow. This trend is being felt across the economy, including the financial services sector. Fintech is one of the technological advancements in the financial services industry. Indonesia's fintech regulations are less complex than those in other countries. One of the regulatory flaws manifests itself in the area of taxation. As a result, fintech companies must develop a tax planning strategy. The purpose of this paper is to examine tax planning strategies for fintech lending through the lens of qualitative-descriptive research methods. The analysis is based on Indonesia's current legal provisions. The researchers developed tax planning strategies specifically for corporate income tax and value-added tax. The researchers concluded as follows based on the findings of the current regulation study: (1) in terms of value-added tax, fintech lending should pay attention to the limitations of taxable entrepreneurs, the separation of taxable and incentive income, as well as ensuring that input tax credit works properly; and (2) ensure that taxes withheld by third parties are appropriate and have a purpose.

Published: June 2024

This study examines the concept of integration of Anti-Corruption Education at "Subuh" Education Program in Padang City. Corruption is an extraordinary crime or extraordinary crime, so it needs extraordinary handling as well. Viewed from the organic theory, the handling of criminal acts of corruption is equipped with a complete structure. Judging from the substance of the law, it has been widely supported by complete laws and regulations. From the aspect of legal culture, several policies have been issued that integrate Anti-Corruption Education into the learning curriculum in schools. However, these efforts have not yielded significant results. The rate of corruption is still said to be high. In Padang City, an average of 39 cases are submitted to the Corruption Court, Padang District Court. The approach that needs to be taken is a religious approach. The Islamic religious approach is carried out by integrating Anti-Corruption Education in the "Subuh" Education Program. "Didikan Subuh" is an Islamic Education Program that was born and developed inÂ Minangkabau.Â Subuh Education is a functional and practical conception of Islamic Education at dawn with activities centered in the Mosque and Mushalla. Researchers used the Legal System Theory from Laurence M. Friedman and the Functional Structure Theory from Talcott Parsons. This research is normative legal research. The data source consists of secondary data. Data were analyzed qualitatively.

Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), namely rights resulting from the impact of thought patterns resulting in products that are beneficial to legal subjects. However, there are still many problems that arise in IPR such as brand theft, brand plagiarism and so on. One of them is the case of Laverana, a cosmetic product from Germany. This brand was plagiarized by Irawan Gunawan to be used as a product brand in Indonesia. On top of these things, Laverana also felt disadvantaged. Therefore, this article aims to provide an understanding of the importance of protecting IPR and how to resolve international trademark disputes. The research method used in this research itself is a normative-empirical legal research method and a literature approach as well as legal protection theory and effectiveness theory in this brand plagiarism dispute case. The resolution of the Intellectual Property Rights dispute in the Laverana case was pursued through litigation, namely the Indonesian court to try the defendant, namely Irawan Gunawan. The final decision obtained from the court stated that the party from Germany or the original owner of the Laverana Brand won. This resulted in Irawan Gunawan (defendant) having to withdraw from the brand and being charged legal fees of Rp. 5,000,000 (5 Million Rupiah).

Afetler hızla gelişen ve yıkıcı etkisi olan, başta insan kaybı olmak üzere birçok çevresel ve ekonomik kayıplara neden olan doğal olaylardır. Doğal afetler içerisinde özellikle depremler, oluş ve meydana geliş biçimi olarak özelde bireyleri, genelde toplumları farklı şekillerde etkilemektedir. Fay hattı bakımından zengin olan ülkemiz için depremler kaçınılmaz bir durumdur. Ne yazık ki engelli bireyler toplumun diğer kesimlerine göre depremlere karşı daha savunmasız durumdadır. Deprem gibi doğal afetler engelli bireylerin savunmasızlıklarının artmasına neden olmaktadır. Engelli bireyler ülkemizde yaşanan merkez üssü Kahramanmaraş olan depremde, depremden kaçış, barınma, tuvalet ve banyo, hijyen ve medikal malzeme eksikliği, iletişim problemi konularında zorluk yaşamış olup iki kez dezavantajlı duruma düşmüştür. Bu bağlamda halk sağlığı hemşirelerinin vaka yöneticisi, eğitici, ekip üyesi, bakım verici, eğitmen, araştırmacı, yönetici ve ilk yanıt verici rolleri ile engelli bireylerin gelecekte olabilecek her türlü depreme hazırlıklı olmaları için deprem öncesinde alınacak önlemlerin, deprem sırasında yapılması gerekenlerin ve deprem sonrasında uyulması gereken kuralların öğretilmesi amacıyla eğitim programlarının oluşturulması ve tatbik edilmesi gereklidir.

Microalgae are one of the most eco-friendly and promising raw material sources for the production of biofuel. Proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acid are the major components of algal biomass depending upon the species. The present study aimed to determine the lipid extraction and transesterification from Chlorella pyrenoidosa microalgae. Different methods and solvents are used for the disruption of the cell-wall and extraction of lipid content. The methodology involved ultrasonication, microwave digestion, Soxhlet extraction and autoclave while using different solvents as methanol, chloroform, hexane, dichloromethane and heptane. We compared various cell disruption methods to improve lipid extraction yields and the highest lipid extraction yields were obtained using Soxhlet method with hexane. The obtained lipid converted into fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) through transesterification process. The identification of fatty acid was compared by retention time and individual pattern of use from caprylic acid (C8:0) to lignoceric acid (C24:0) in form of methyl ester. The Soxhlet method using methanol and chloroform and FAME analysis showed a highest percentage of palmitic acid (C16:0) and lowest percentage of myristic acid (C14:1).

Published: June 2024

This research aimed to assess the biodegradation potential of phenanthrene in a simulated aqueous solution using an isolated bacterial strain, Rhodococcus sp., with the assistance of a Box-Behnken design matrix. To gauge the impact of key operational factors, pH (6.0 to 9.0), temperature (20 to 40°C), initial phenanthrene concentration (50 to 100 ppm) and incubation time (7 to 21 days), the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was employed to design the biodegradation experiment. The experimental findings highlighted incubation time as the most influential variable followed by initial phenanthrene concentration, pH and temperature via Box-Behnken Design (BBD) matrix. To determine the maximum phenanthrene biodegradation, the Desirability Function Methodology (DFM) was applied. Within the designated parameter ranges, the highest phenanthrene biodegradation (70.0%) was observed at pH 7.3, temperature of 30°C and an initial phenanthrene concentration of 70 ppm on the 19th day of incubation. The model's fitness was thoroughly validated, with a correlation coefficient (R²) of 0.9899 and a "Prob>F" value below 0.0500, affirming its suitability for optimization purposes. This study underscores the utility of the RSM in optimizing operational variables, ultimately resulting in significant time and cost savings for experimentation.
