Published: June 2024

Effective village governance is an important foundation for sustainable development at the local level. However, many villages in Indonesia, including Sungai Arang Hamlet in Jambi, still face challenges in terms of governance, which can be seen from weak administrative systems, lack of transparency, and low capacity of village officials. This research uses a participatory community service approach which involves a series of activities, including: (1) Identifying village problems and needs through focus group discussions (FGD) and in-depth interviews; (2) Development of standard operating procedures (SOP) for various aspects of village administration; (3) Training and capacity building for village officials regarding SOP implementation; (4) Assistance and monitoring of SOP implementation; and (5) Evaluation of program impact. The research results show a significant improvement in village governance after program implementation. The developed SOPs have helped improve the efficiency and effectiveness of public services, increase transparency and accountability, and strengthen public participation in decision-making. In addition, the capacity of village officials has also increased, reflected in a better understanding of their duties and responsibilities, as well as a better ability to carry out administrative tasks. In conclusion, this community service program has made a positive contribution in strengthening village governance in Sungai Arang Hamlet. Developing SOPs and increasing the capacity of village officials has proven effective in improving the quality of public services, transparency, and accountability. This research recommends that this community service model can be replicated in other villages that have similar problems.

Authors: Pratiaksa Ardian , Eko Setijanto
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Eclampsia, a severe form of pre-eclampsia characterized by high blood pressure and seizures, poses a significant threat to both maternal and fetal health. With a global incidence of 2-8% among pregnancies affected by pre-eclampsia, eklampsia remains a leading cause of maternal mortality, particularly in low-resource settings. Given the potential for serious complications associated with postpartum eklampsia, it is crucial for anesthesia teams to possess a comprehensive understanding of the condition's management and the specific considerations required in the postpartum setting.
Case presentation: We report a 19 years old woman post caesarean section with eclampsia. The patient had a recurrent seizure on the first day at the ICU. After had an intensive therapy at the ICU the patient showed a clinically improvement and extubated on the second day. The case highlights the importance of a holistic and comprehensive approach to postpartum care in eklampsia patients. By addressing not only the immediate symptoms but also the underlying physiological and neurological derangements, the ICU team was able to effectively manage the patient's condition and facilitate her recovery.
Conclusion: Postpartum care in the intensive care unit needs to be hollistic and comprehensive with the aim of not aggravating the patient's condition and worsening the patient's prognosis.

Published: June 2024

This study examined the economic efficiency of Android phone-enabled modems and standard modems in Nigeria. A sample of 388 commercial (cybercafe) and private internet service users were selected using random sampling. The data were analyzed using frequency and percentage calculations to identify patterns and trends as well as ordinal logit regression analysis. The research study revealed that the odds for higher economic efficiency rise when subscribers or commercial (cybercafe) and private internet service users’ monthly internet subscriptions is lower. Similarly, the study revealed that the odds for higher economic efficiency rise when subscribers or commercial (cybercafe) and private internet service user’s daily internet access time increases. Regarding connectivity issues while using an Android-enabled modem, the study showed that the odds for higher economic efficiency fall when connectivity challenges increase. The odds for higher economic efficiency increase when connectivity challenges arise while using a standard modem. The research study also showed that the odds for higher economic efficiency increases when more expensive Android phones are used. The study further revealed that the odds for higher economic efficiency will fall when subscribers or commercial (cybercafe) and private internet service users use less expensive standard modems. The study also revealed that the effect of the explanatory variables or predictors is different across the levels of the dependent or explained variable. Thus, the study recommends that regulatory agencies and operators should come up with a price per megabyte of internet access that will reduce the initial cost of services rendered by private and commercial internet users in a bid to drive economic growth. Regulators and service providers must ensure minimal or no interference with the service provided to end users in a bid to promote the economic efficiency of Internet services. Efforts must be made by the government to the efficient devices affordable, and an embargo must be placed on the importation of internet devices (phone and standard modem) with poor efficiency

Published: June 2024

Perkawinan dapat diputuskan melalui Pengadilan maupun di luar Pengadilan, namun yang dibenarkan bahwa Perceraian hanya dapat dilakukan di depan sidang Pengadilan Agama sesuai dengan Pasal 39 Ayat (1) Undang-undang Nomor 1 Tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan. Perceraian pun dapat dilakukan apabila sudah cukup alasan Perceraian. Namun dalam kenyataannya masih banyak ditemukan proses perceraian di luar jalur pengadilan, maka keadaan tersebut banyak menimbulkan persepsi yang berbeda antara hukum agama, hukum adat dan Undang-undang Perkawinan. Hakikat perkawinan adalah mewujudkan kesejahteraan lahir dan batin atau kesejahteraan materiil bagi setiap anggota keluarga yang terdiri dari suami, istri, anak dan segenap keluarga besar suami istri.
Problematika Persamaan Hak Dalam Waris dan RAD
Authors: Ahsin Mohammad
Published: June 2024

Islamic inheritance law is a provision for the transfer of property from a deceased person to the person left behind. Islamic inheritance law in Indonesia has been regulated in KHI in accordance with Presidential Instruction Number 1 of 1991. The purpose of this study aims to determine the position and fair rights attached to both male and female heirs in receiving inheritance, especially in cases of kalalah and radd. The method used in this research is normative juridical, namely by conducting searches of library materials, laws and other literature. Kalalah is a person who dies without leaving a father and children. Debate arises regarding the determination of the meaning of walad which is a requirement for siblings to obtain inheritance. KHI in article 182 seems to globalize the word walad. KHI takes the opinion of Ibn Abbas ra. that the word walad includes boys and girls in order to create gender justice. The radd is the excess of inheritance after being distributed to the heirs and there are no 'asabah heirs. In this radd issue, KHI follows the opinion of Uthman bin Affan that the excess is returned to all heirs as stated in article 193.

In the presidential system of government, there are prerogative rights that are only owned by the head of state as the leader of the country. Clemency is regulated under Law Number 5 of 2010 on Clemency on the amendement of Law Number 22 of 2022 on Clemency. One of the uses of prerogative rights is to provide relief to several convicts by granting clemency. The granting of clemency by the President is based on humanity and without any interference from other parties or other state institutions. Although the granting of clemency is in the hands of the President due to the ownership of the prerogative, the consideration of granting clemency must be considered by the Supremen Court, the Prosecutor, and the Minister of Law and Human Rights so that there is cooperation between the relevant legal institutions. Clemency is utilized by several convicts, especially death row convicts, to cut the sentence imposed on them so that the executive of the sentence becomes shorter from the first time the decision is read out by the judge at the first level court.

Pergeseran perilaku manusia yang banyak bertransformasi dari analog ke digital banyak mempengaruhi berbagai elemen kehidupan baik pada bidang bisnis, hiburan hingga berjalannya roda pemerintahan. Digitalisasi pada pemerintahan ini tentunya memiliki sebuah kesempatan khususnya untuk mengurangi berbagai maladministrasi, tindak pidana korupsi dan berbagai bentuk kesewenang – wenangan. Kendati demikian terdapat berbagai tantangan dan potensi permasalahan akibat dari digitalisasi ini yaitu terkait perlindungan atas privasi dan data pribadi. Terdapat beberapa kasus terjadi terkait pelanggaran hak atas privasi dan perlindungan data pribadi seperti pencurian data, jual beli data secara illegal, peretasan, serangan malware, hingga manipulasi psikologis melalui social engineering. Dalam sudut pandang hak asasi manusia, hak atas privasi dan perlindungan data pribadi adalah salah satu bentuk perwujudannya. Hal tersebut sebagaimana diatur dalam berbagai pandangan ahli, instrumen HAM internasional, dan instrumen HAM nasional. Posisi negara sebagai pemangku kewajiban (duty bearer) membuatnya harus melakukan berbagai upaya untuk memastikan penghormatan, perlindungan dan pemenuhan hak setiap orang sebagai pemegang hak (rights holder) atas privasi dan perlindungan data pribadi. Oleh karenanya negara bertanggung jawab ketika terdapat pelanggaran baik itu ketika negara sebagai pelaku langsung atau ketika melakukan pembiaran.

Published: June 2024

Progressive reduction of water supply was imposed during early period (S1) and late period (S2) interceded by a recovery, with a moderate stress for first case and un intensive stress for second case, at fruiting stage of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. Rio Grand). The influence of this reduction on fruit production, shoot growth, water content (WC), relative water content (RWC), leaf area (LA), specific leaf weight (SLW), total soluble solids of fruit (T.S.S.) and maturity percentage of fruit were investigated. Repetition of water stress (S1+S2) was obviously reducing the shoot growth, fresh yield, WC, LA and maturity percentage, whereas that was not achieved in dry weight of fruits (FDW), RWC, SLW and T.S.S. Since, a significant difference was founded between the effects of S2 cycle and when that has been preceded by another one S1+S2 on accumulation of dry matter of fruit. Two successive cycles of water stress were doubled of FDW by two times of that registered in control. These results indicate that, during fruiting stage, the effect of gradually exposure of a moderate water stress period, followed by recovery, thereafter by another gradually exposure of un intensive water stress period, contributed to better accumulation of dry matter in fruit by an osmotic adjusting therefore improving water use efficiency, compared to the effect of only one high intensive of water stress applied during the second period. Repetition cycle of water stress may be useful to develop management systems for a reasonable production of tomato and thus reducing the needs of irrigation water in regions facing deficit of water supplies.

Transient Nucleate Boiling and Its Use for Thermomechanical Technologies Development
Authors: Kobasko Nikolai I.
Published: June 2024

In the paper high temperature and low temperature intensive thermomechanical treatment is discussed. It is based on recently discovered new three physical principles that belong to the transient nucleate boiling process taking place in cold fluids. Such processes are considered in conditions when any film boiling during quenching in cold fluids is completely absent. That makes nucleate boiling very intensive, i.e. . The discoveries are used for direct quenching articles after forgings. The first is intensive high-temperature thermo-mechanical treatment (HTTMT). It is used for low and middle-carbon alloy steels. Forged steel parts are intensively quenched with a cooling interruption at the proper time to form surface compression residual stresses and fine bainitic microstructure at the core that increases radically surface life of forgings. The second method includes high-temperature and low temperature intensive thermo - mechanical treatment (LTTMT) of high carbon alloy steels with delaying martensitic transformation to make low-temperature thermo - mechanical treatment (LTTMT) possible. Then, after high temperature and low-temperature thermomechanical treatment, the steel goes to immediate tempering to create highly strengthened fine bainitic microstructure throughout the section of the steel part. A modified method of cooling time calculation, suitable for any size and form of steel part, is widely discussed in this paper.
Design and Hardware Implementation of CNN-GCN Model for Skeleton-Based Human Action Recognition
Authors: Mansouri Amine , Elzaar Abdellah , Madani Mahdi , Bakir Toufik
Published: June 2024

Deep learning algorithms in general have shown outstanding performances on tasks involving Human Action Recognition and spatio-temporal modeling. In our ever-more interconnected world where mobile and edge devices take center stage, there is a growing need for algorithms to operate directly on embedded platforms. Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA), owing to their reprogrammable nature and low-power attributes, stand out as excellent choices for these edge computing applications. In this work, our aims are threefold. Firstly, we aim to design and develop a novel custom model that combines Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) to effectively capture spatial and temporal features from skeleton data to achieve Human Action Recognition. Secondly, we endeavor to implement this custom model onto FPGA hardware using Vitis-AI, thus exploring the potential for efficient hardware acceleration of deep learning models. Lastly, we seek to evaluate the real-time performance of the FPGA-accelerated model in comparison to CPU and GPU implementations, assessing its suitability for deployment in real-world applications requiring low-latency inference. Experimental results based on the NTU dataset demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of our custom model compared to traditional CPU or GPU implementations.

ANHAGA, or: The Epistemological Quest in Anne Carson’s “Kinds of Water”
Authors: Monzón-Blasco Aitana
Published: June 2024

This paper focuses on Anne Carson’s lyrical essay “Kinds of Water” (1995) as a case of a transmodern text concerned with the consequences of posthumanist suffering, such as the lack of affection or human connection. Establishing a continuum between epistemology and anthropology, Carson presents water as an ungraspable symbol, as a pretext for critical inquiry, self-discover, and acceptance. Taking this element as limitless and fluid, we aim to analyse certain paradoxes related to H2O that psychologically and linguistically affect the narrative voice. These are materiality and fluidity, but also the dichotomy between excess and absence, as well as movement and stillness.
Queering the American (Super)Hero in Cassandra Clare’s Shadowhunters Novels
Authors: Pesce Elisa
Published: June 2024

This article presents Alec Lightwood in Cassandra Clare’s Shadowhunters Young Adult urban fantasy novels as a character that questions and subverts the tenets underpinning the association between exceptionalism and heroicity in American culture, thus fostering a reworking of the myth of the superhero in the nation’s twenty-first-century imagination. In his trajectory from closeted gay boy to hero of several wars and leader of the Shadowhunters, Alec queers the hegemonic American heroic ideal by subverting the paradigm of heteronormative masculinity conventionally associated with it and promotes a model of heroism that champions cooperation, empathy, and personal feelings. After clarifying how Shadowhunter traditions mirror American national core values and introducing the Nephilim as a particular kind of (super)heroes that expose the way those values can lead to corruption and destruction if deployed to supremacist ends, I describe Alec’s atypical heroism, grounded in the inseparability of the private and the public and encouraging a rethinking of what makes the America strong and good. I also explore the unusual importance given in Clare’s novels to a hero’s romantic and family life as a means for exploring – through Alec’s queerness – the contribution of the instrumentalization of love and family to the preservation of hegemonic ideals and its negative impact on the imagined future of the nation.

El mercado financiero se divide en el mercado primario, donde se emiten por primera vez los títulos financieros, y el mercado secundario, donde se compran y venden los títulos ya emitidos. Su función principal es movilizar recursos financieros desde agentes con excedentes hacia aquellos que necesitan fondos, permitiendo una mejor asignación del capital y un mayor crecimiento económico. A pesar de su importancia para la economía, los mercados financieros son volátiles y presentan riesgos para los inversores. (Conceptos de la historia. s.f.) Es fundamental conocer su funcionamiento para evitar la incertidumbre. Lo anterior proporciona un cimiento sólido para entender cómo los mercados financieros evolucionan y cómo funcionan actualmente, lo cual es esencial para cualquier estudio sobre el precio de las acciones y su relación con los meses del año o periodos económicos. La estacionalidad en los precios de las acciones se refiere a patrones de comportamiento que se repiten periódicamente en el mercado de valores. Estos patrones pueden ser mensuales, trimestrales o incluso anuales y suelen estar influenciados por factores económicos, psicológicos y de comportamiento de los inversores.  El presente estudio pretende conocer los factores que condicionan la estacionalidad y una vez comprendiendo estar en posibilidad de invertir de forma segura entrando en las fechas que mejor lo hacen cierto tipo de empresas o cierto tipo de sectores económicos; una vez conociendo estos factores se puede crear una empresa que gestione recursos de la gente más pobre de la región sur de Jalisco para incrementar sus ingresos familiares.
Mapas de azulejos en cuadrícula para representación de información geográfica. Creación de un índice topológico para su evaluación a partir de un ejemplo para Argentina
Authors: Elatskov Aleksei Borísovich
Published: June 2024

Este artículo analiza una herramienta relativamente nueva para visualizar información geográfica, conocida como Tile Grid Maps o mapas de azulejos (mosaico) en cuadrícula. Estos mapas están formados por figuras de la misma forma y tamaño (cuadrados o hexágonos) dispuestas en un orden estrictamente regular; los elementos del mapa («azulejos») están dispuestos según la posición geográfica relativa de los territorios reales. Se describen los aspectos positivos y negativos de estos mapas, que presentan algunas ventajas con respecto a los cartogramas convencionales. El artículo propone un índice topológico especial para evaluar la calidad de los mapas de azulejos y ofrece recomendaciones prácticas para crear este tipo de mapas. Se presenta un cuadro comparativo de evaluación de distintos tipos de imágenes cartográficas; se compila una plantilla de mapas de azulejos de Argentina y se dan ejemplos de su uso. Por último, se presenta el proyecto de automatización del autor utilizando hojas de cálculo MS Excel (mini SIG).

In this investigation, The impact response of composite materials constructed with plain weave E-Glass has been analysed numerically. The numerical analysis has been appropriately validated through the utilisation of the experimental work. Energy conservation and the current condition of affairs have both been the subject of extensive research. Following its conclusion, the impact test was assessed to have lasted a total of 6 e-5 seconds. A significant transformation has taken place in the energy that is emanating from the hourglass. The value decreased progressively from 3.5 e-7 J at 0 seconds to 1 e-5 seconds prior to reaching a stable state. A novel maximal strain of 0.0003 mm/mm has been identified as being achievable through the application of elastic strain. It is feasible to obtain this novel maximal strain. An empirical investigation revealed the application of a cumulative force measuring 7868.7 N. The structure has experienced a complete deformation of 0.0014 mm in the midsection as a direct result of the simulation implementation. The present value of tension is an unprecedented maximum of 0.0013 mm, which is the highest value conceivably achievable.

The ocean offers vast opportunities for unprecedented energy harvesting where most studies had concentrated on large scale energy harvesting from the ocean waves. However, there were minimal studies on low-scale energy harvesting. This study focuses on ambient, low-scale energy harvesting which theoretically can be used to power low energy consumption electrical appliances. The inherent characteristic of piezoelectric materials which can convert mechanical energy to electrical energy has created an alternative to generate energy from renewable sources including ocean waves. Initially, this study started with preliminary work which consisted of the development and testing of a lab scale piezoelectric energy harvester (PEH-1) which was tested along the beach area of Kuala Nerus, east coast of Malaysia. Results from PEH-1 had shown that the high tide produced more power level compared to low tide experiments. The findings from the first phase of this study served as a foundation study towards the development of an upscaled version of the PEH-1 in relation of mechanical and electronics, which was termed as PEH-2. Testing for PEH-2 was conducted in the coastal area of Pulau Bidong Laut, Kuala Nerus. Results from the second part of the study had shown that approximately almost 80% of the power harvested correlated linearly with wind speed, however after reaching 0.7W the peak dips down which was probably due to the instability of PEH-2 to be used in harsh open seas environment. This study had shown the feasibility of utilizing piezoelectric material to harvest low-scale power, however, several in-house modifications needed to be made for it to be fully functionable.

Published: June 2024

The value of the torsion test is of particular interest to this line of investigation, which intends to explore the effects of epoxy % on fiberglass (a composite material). The practical result demonstrates that an increase in the percentage of epoxy has a clear impact; it was noticed that an increase in the percentage of fiber-glass results in an increase in the values of torque (T) and angle (ϴ). Three samples of epoxy and fiber are ascribed, with rates of -(Epoxy) +(Fiber Glass) being (0.5%,1%,1.5%), and three samples of polyester and fiber are credited, with rates of -(polyester) +(Fiberglass) being (0.5%,1%,1.5%). Additionally, three samples of epoxy and fiber are attributed, with rates of -(Epoxy) +(Fiberglass) being (0.5%,1%,1.5%). We get the best results for the torsion test with the first specimen (0.5% fiberglass for polyester) and the best results for the shear strain with the fourth specimen (0.5% fiberglass for epoxy). Both of these results are 120 MPa for the torsion test and 2.2 for the shear strain.

Slabs are vital for supporting loads and forming the foundation for structures' floors and roofs, classified as one-way or two-way based on deflection characteristics. A recent innovation in construction, the Reinforced Bubble Deck Concrete (RBDC) slab, integrates spherical or elliptical hollow bubbles within the slab for reinforcement, reducing concrete usage without compromising structural integrity. This unconventional approach diverges from traditional methods. The manuscript thoroughly reviews existing literature on the design and testing of Reinforced Bubble Deck Concrete slabs, aiming to explore their diverse characteristics as observed in international research studies. Findings demonstrate that these slabs offer a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional floor slabs. Their capacity to reduce weight while maintaining strength suggests they could revolutionize construction practices, potentially replacing conventional floor slabs in various projects.
