Urban Planning Reform: (Non-)Legal Regulation in Russian Cities
Authors: Volkova Natalia
Published: July 2024

The paper is devoted to the analysis of a tool of urban planning — the rules of the Land Use and Development (LUD), which are a key element of the Russian urban planning reform of the 2000s. The main challenge in urban law and planning is the high variability of norms, which undermines their legitimacy; instead of regulating relationships, they merely describe them. This raises questions about how the dynamics of norms emerge and why a regulatory tool that functioned predictably in international contexts behaves differently when transplanted. How does the LUD tool itself change during urban reform, and how does its operation structure the course of reform? Does it depend on its structure or the conceptual underpinnings on which it is based? How does this distinct operation of LUDs relate to their transfer from a neoliberal economic system to a post-socialist one, and what does this imply about the characteristics of post-socialism? Current research in institutional analysis does not address these questions but allows us to explore how social relations are organized in specific contexts. Drawing on published documents, field research, including in-depth and expert interviews, and participant observations, the paper attempts to offer alternative ways of describing the operation of LUDs. Unlike neo-institutionalism, actor-network theory, and social topology introduce the concept of coordination, which views the operation of the LUD tool as a coordination of processes across four levels: (1) aligning local interests through the technical elements of LUDs, (2) adapting new governance instruments at the state level, (3) synchronizing various reform and change processes, and (4) integrating different epistemological perspectives. Thus, the high variability of LUD norms is linked to their diverse applications, from local interactions to the design and implementation of reforms, with an emphasis on the temporal synchronization of different processes.

Job  opportunities  for  graduates  of  the French  Language Studies Program (PS) are currently more and more promising. But of course, graduates must have good or even superior skills to compete with graduates of the same field from various Indonesian universities. Therefore, the existence of specialization courses (MK) is a very good  step  to  equip  graduates  with  qualified  skills,  especially  in  the  field  of  French. Specialized courts can help graduates be able to compete in a wider range of professions. Employment opportunities for graduates will be increasingly open. But in reality, there are still students, alumni and stakeholders who don't know and understand this. Thus, through this service activity, it is hoped that the various parties directly involved will be able to learn about the importance of the specialized tribunal during studies in the French Language Studies Program. Not only the provision of French with a literary and pedagogical basis, but also competence in the field of specialized French (FOS / French for Specific Objectives) to be able to compete in an increasingly difficult professional world. The challenges of the disruptive era and the 4.0 industrial revolution and the 5.0 society require students and alumni as well as stakeholders to be able to adapt quickly to the changes taking place both in the world of education than professionals.

Life prediction and risk assessment on the aircraft cable based on thermal damage features
Authors: Hu Yinxiao , Yang Haoqi , Ge Hongjuan , Hua Yingchun , Jin Hui , Pan Kuangming
Published: July 2024

Aiming at the operational risk caused by melting of aircraft cable insulation layer, an aircraft cable safety analysis method based on thermal damage characteristics is proposed to accurately predict the life and dynamically assess the risk. Based on the mechanism of cable thermal damage, two types of damage characteristics including the thermal damage influence factor and the radial melting rate are defined, which characterizes the influence and degree of cable thermal damage. Use thermal damage influence factor to indicate that cable thermal damage accelerates cable failure, and a method of cable life prediction is proposed. Moreover, a dynamic risk assessment model for aircraft cable is constructed from two perspectives of thermal damage degree and failure probability. The results show that the cable life prediction method proposed owes higher accuracy and better applicability in different operating areas. The proposed risk assessment model is effective and the results are consistent with the experimental.

Published: July 2024

Objective. To determine the predictive role of resilience and hope on adherence to treatment in hemodialysis patients hospitalized in two hospitals affiliated to Shiraz University of Medical Sciences (Shiraz, Iran). Methods. This is a descriptive-analytical study that was conducted in 2021-2022 on 120 patients treated in hemodialysis sections in Namazi and Shahid Faqihi teaching hospitals. Sampling was conducted using a stratified random method. Demographic information questionnaires, Connor and Davidson's resilience, Snyder's hope and adherence to kidney patients' treatment questionnaires were used to collect the data. Results. The finds showed that the levels of resilience, hope, and adherence to treatment had hight level. More specifically, it was indicated that the mean and standard deviation for the total resilience score, the hope variable, and adherence to total treatment was 75.45±14.34, 40.43±3.66, and 80.12±18.20, respectively; which have maximum possible scores of 100, 48 and 100. Thus, it can be said that no correlation was observed between resilience and adherence to treatment variables (p>0.05); hope variable and adherence to treatment (p>0.05), and adherence to treatment with hope and resilience variables (p>0.05). However, hope and resilience variables showed a direct and weak correlation with each other (r=0.36, p<0.05); that is, patients who had more hope indicated better resilience as well. Conclusion. Although in this study we found that the resilience and hope variables were not able to predict the treatment adherence, hope and resilience indicated a direct and weak correlation. It is recommended that nurses should pay more attention to hope and resilience of hemodialysis patients in order to promote their health.

Objective. To determine the effect of self-distancing, self-transcendence, and family functioning on self-care agency in Mexican older adults. Methods. Correlational-explanatory design, with a sample of 253 elderly, collecting data through a simple random sampling. A personal data questionnaire was applied, the scale of: self-transcendence, the self-distancing subscale, the family APGAR and the ability to self-care in Mexican population from different demographic groups. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied (Mann-Whitney U and a structural equation model) and the study was approved by a registered ethics committee. Results. The study had participation from 253 elderly, with a mean age of 68.02 years, with prevalence of the female sex (60.1%); the level of education was primary school or lower (51.4%). It was observed that the group of chronic diseases had lower self-distancing (U = 4.449.5, p = 0.038) and greater self-transcendence (U = 4177.0, p = 0.008), and selfcare (U = 4365.5, p = 0.024) than the group without chronic diseases. It was also found that self-transcendence, self-distancing, and family functionality produce a positive effect of 37% on selfcare. Conclusion. Self-distancing, self-transcendence, and family functionality explain an important proportion of selfcare in the elderly. Said knowledge permits understanding the care behavior of the elderly and, thus, propose future educational interventions by nursing to prevent or avoid functional, cognitive loss and social effects.
ASEAN’s Function in Handling the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Ilkodar Saptopo Bambang
Published: July 2024

This article examines ASEAN’s function and the effectiveness of that function in handling the COVID-19 pandemic. The author examines this problem because there is a gap that has no explanation, namely between the excellent performance of ASEAN member countries in handling the COVID-19 pandemic on the one hand and the lack of ASEAN functions in handling the pandemic. If ASEAN does not function much in handling the COVID-19 pandemic, why are its member countries performing better than countries in Europe and Latin America? The author uses a regionalism framework and finds four things that affect ASEAN’s function in handling the COVID-19 pandemic, namely: the level of member trust in regional organisations, the level of complexity of problems, the involvement of global organisations, and the amount of autonomy of regional organisations compared to member countries.
Impact of the Earthquake Rupture on Ground-Motion Variability of the 24 August 2016 Mw 6.2 Amatrice, Italy, Earthquake
Authors: Akinci Aybige , Pitarka Arben , Artale Harris Pietro , De Gori Pasquale , Buttinelli Mauro
Published: July 2024

The devastating 24 August 2016 Mw 6.2 earthquake that struck Amatrice, Italy, marked the beginning of a prolonged seismic sequence dominated by three subsequent Mw  ≥6.0 events in the central Apennines region. The earthquake destroyed Amatrice’s historic center, claiming the lives of 299 individuals and causing widespread damage in the neighboring villages. The severity of the ground shaking, with a recorded maximum acceleration of 850  cm/s2 on the east–west component at the Amatrice station, was far greater than the predicted acceleration based on the Italian ground-motion model (GMM). As pointed out by several investigations, the observed ground-motion amplitude and its spatial variability during the earthquake can be linked to specific rupture characteristics, including slip distribution and rupture directivity effects revealed by the observed data (Tinti et al., 2016; Pischiutta et al., 2021). In this study, we conducted physics-based 3D numerical simulations of ground motion for the Amatrice earthquake for frequencies up to 3 Hz. We employed a series of kinematic rupture models and a well-constrained local 3D velocity model incorporating surface topography. The kinematic rupture realizations were generated using multiscale hybrid and fully stochastic models, following the technique proposed by Graves and Pitarka (2016). We focused on assessing the sensitivity of near-fault ground-motion amplitudes to earthquake rupture characteristics, in particular, the spatial slip pattern. To evaluate the quality of our simulations, we employed goodness-of-fit measurements performed in comparisons of simulated and recorded ground motions. The simulated ground motions compare well with the recorded data and predictions from GMMs for Italy, ITA18 (Lanzano et al., 2019). However, we found that the simulated interevent ground-motion variability (randomness in the source process) of peak ground velocity, σ (PGV) is higher than the constant σ (PGV) predicted by conventional GMMs. Our simulations using several rupture scenarios demonstrate that the near-fault ground-motion amplification pattern is directly related to the slip distribution pattern.
Assembly line for ideas in US foreign policy and the issue of international relations actors’ trust hereinunder
Authors: Pavlov V.V.
Published: July 2024

Modern US foreign policy is aimed at maintaining the world order favorable to Washington by means of military force projection, economic potential and a liberal ideology. A distinctive feature of US foreign policy behavior is the production of new ideas and projects, ranging from ‘The End of History’ to the ‘rules-based order.’ Despite a number of foreign policy setbacks (interventions in Iraq, Afghanistan, Lybia), Washington’s cascade of ideas does not weaken, and US allies and some other actors continue to demonstrate acceptance of new speculative projects. In order to explain this irrational situation, the author employs content analysis of the State of the Union addresses and the US National Security Strategies is conducted to examine the main narratives of the US presidential administrations. This analysis shows that Washington tries to use international ethics to its advantage by formulating narratives that benefit US, as well as to put forward proposals convenient for Washington to replace the norms of international law. Moreover, the author (1) discusses the reasons for such a situation in US foreign policy decision-making; and (2) in order to resolve the issue of acceptance of US ideas, turns to the psychology of international relations. The categories of trust, habit and hypocrisy, according to the author, are able to provide an explanatory framework which closes the gap that appears when attempting to apply rationalist theories.
Relations of the European Union with the United States and NATO: dilemmas of euro-atlanticism
Authors: Arbatova N.K.
Published: July 2024

Transatlantic relations have always been central to Western security and defense policy. At the same time, the prospects for the creation of European defense structures from the 1950s to the present day have been a stumbling block in Euro-Atlantic relations. The construction of the defense potential of the European Union until the 90s was considered on both sides of the Atlantic as a purely theoretical project of the distant future, which did not pose a threat to the solidarity of the allies. The gradual formation of the EU’s Common Security and Defense Policy against the backdrop of the crisis in NATO and the aggravation of the international situation resulted in the project of European strategic autonomy, which sharply raised the question of the future configuration of the Euro-Atlantic partnership. This topic has become central to today’s discussions between the European and American strategic communities, assessing how building the EU’s defense potential could impact the role of NATO and the US leadership position in ensuring security in the Euro-Atlantic area.
The decline of populism? Crisis of trust and parties of political alternative in modern Italy
Authors: Alekseyenkova Ye.S.
Published: July 2024

The phenomenon of populism has been thoroughly studied during previous decades, however, not many researchers analyze those socio-political processes and practices that develop against the backdrop of the arrival of populist parties in the government. At the same time, “populism in power” entails a profound transformation of the populist parties themselves from within and affects the state of society, dissatisfied with the unwillingness of populist parties to immediately fulfill all the promises made by the leaders on the way to power, leading to failure. Thirty years of experience of populism in Italy and the presence of populists in power over the past five years (2018-2024) allow us to assert that: 1) these parties, which positioned themselves as parties of a political alternative and criticized representative democracy, traditional parties and political class, did not bring the promised innovations into politics – new forms of democracy and participation, greater involvement of citizens in politics, and new practices, including internal party ones; 2) the disappointment of society from the ideological transformation of populist parties, unfulfilled promises, and “conciliatory” policies in relation to mainstream parties can contribute to further distrust in political parties and the abandonment of political action as such in favor of a different repertoire – direct social action, providing a horizontal type of trust and solving socio-economic problems in the short term through grassroots social interaction. Direct social action has become an alternative to the manifestation of political protest and other types of political action. Society is being depoliticized, the level of political activity is decreasing, and at the same time the degree of horizontal integration and the use of direct social action of a latent protest nature is increasing, allowing to expect its possible future politization. The paper contributes to the debate on the evolution of the phenomenon of populism and its socio-political consequences.
The Electric Compress Lowers Body Temperature During Fever Using The PID Control System
Authors: Mayang Sari Tri Rizki
Published: July 2024

Compressing is a physical method for lowering the body temperature for those who are experiencing a fever. It can be done by using fluids or tools that can cause warmth and coolness to related parts of the body. The aim of developing this tool is to add a cold temperature selection mode and PID control to reduce the possibility of errors in setting the temperature with the resulting temperature in the compress, as well as getting a more stable and faster temperature adjusment. This research used an ATmega328P microcontroller as a data processor, a PID control system as a temperature controller for the heating element, an LM35 temperature sensor as a temperature detector, two heaters as hot and cold media, an I2ºC LCD as a display and a buzzer as a marker for the completion of the compress therapy process. Measurements were carried out at a hot temperature setting of 37ºC, 39ºC, and 41ºC, and a cold temperature setting of 20ºC and 25ºC. From these temperature measurements, the difference in temperature measurements between the measurements on the proposed tool module and the measurements on the thermometer at each point was, on average, below 1ºC. Therefore, this electric compressor is proven capable of operating like a real therapeutic tool.
Três Braços e um Samba como Signos em Rotação
Authors: Lepê Correia Severino
Published: July 2024

Trata-se de relato de experiência sobre a interpretação do samba intitulado Quando eu Contar [Iaiá], de autoria da dupla Serginho Meriti e Beto Sem Braço, gravado por Zeca Pagodinho, em 1986. A interpretação foi realizada na penetração do campo da tradução intersemiótica, na tentativa de observar, na narrativa poética dos dois sambistas de partideiro, a experiência da outridade negaceando a mutilação pela mesmice de ser um. A análise da letra do samba ainda recebe o enxerto de duas figuras conectadas à ideia de ancestralidade e de visita ‘territorial’ a ser empreendida. São examinadas, ainda, as relações contratuais como adesão e polêmicas vivas, vividas e passeadas na companhia do samba, como: resistência negra, sincretismos geográficos e religiosos, tal qual ‘signos em rotação’.

El análisis también destaca el aumento en la edad de los migrantes, cambios en la distribución de género, condiciones de vivienda, niveles educativos y situaciones laborales, proporcionando una comprensión matizada de las dinámicas de la migración interna en Venezuela.
The Quest for the Holy Grail between East and West: The Story of the Search for the Chalice and Its Meaning
Authors: Dubrovskaya Dinara V.
Published: July 2024

Entire libraries may be compiled of books, exploring the phenomenon of the Quest for the Holy Grail — its essence, meaning and the very Cup of the Last Supper in real material terms. Being one of the Christian relics that largely determined the spiritual quest of Europeans who obtained those rarities (or some things taken for them) in the Crusades, The Bratina, in which, according to the legend, St. Joseph of Arimathea collected the blood of the crucified Christ, surpasses material meanings and forces thinkers, philosophers, mystics and, of course, historians, to think about the meaning of man’s quest not only in the Middle Ages, but throughout all times. By bringing together the most important versions of the origins, quests, and likely locations of the Holy Grail, the author comes to her own conclusions about the reasons why this two-thousand-year-old quest is so important to world culture.
Indian Himalayas Ecosystem: Technological Civilization’s Challenges and Lessons of Man-made Catastrophes. Part I
Authors: Chelyshev Dmitry Ye.
Published: July 2024

Basing on excerpts from ancient Indian sacred texts and vast scope of more recent religious and philosophical literature the author concludes that Indian public consciousness, formed on their ground, was permeated by the idea of nature deification and its inseverable relation to the life of a human being. These fundamental principles demonstrated extraordinary durability in the context of ongoing historical changes and found their embodiment in contemporary popular ecological movements, in folklore, rituals and customs. Deification of nature, as author asserts, is characteristic to predominantly rural population of India, and especially to ethnic groups which inhabit Himalayan regions of India. The article is supplemented by author’s photos.
A Comparative Study to Assess the Efficiency of Wet Beneficiation Techniques for Treatment of Low-Grade and High-Grade Bauxite Ore
Authors: Modi Manoj , Dewangan Pankaj
Published: July 2024

Bauxite is the basic raw material of aluminium used to extract alumina in Bayer’s process. With the huge demand and the rapid development of the global alumina industry, bauxite consumption is rising and has reached more than 160 million tonnes per year. With such a high demand for aluminium, it is becoming more difficult to meet the consumption due to the gradual global decline of high-grade bauxite resources. In the current market scenario, treating bauxites containing more than 5% reactive silica (SiO2) is generally considered uneconomic due to excessive soda consumption in Bayer’s process. The present study is conducted to examine the influence of the wet beneficiation process in the pre-treatment of low-grade and high-grade bauxite ores and a comparative analysis of the results obtained regarding alumina recovery and silica reduction. For this study, High-Grade (HG) and Low-Grade (LG) bauxite ore samples were collected from different bauxite mines of the East Coast region and subjected to wet beneficiation. Comparative chemical analysis of the before and after beneficiation samples revealed the wet beneficiation process to be significantly effective in the pre-treatment of LG bauxite samples with an average increment of 10.84% in the alumina content and 18.38% average reduction in silica after wet beneficiation.

Authors: Harkawat Praveen
Published: July 2024

As per Nature1 , AI may act as an enabler on 134 targets (79%) across all Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), generally through technological improvement and by putting the right processes in place to ensure compliance with applicable regulations, certifications, and standards. As the sustainability and green tech market2 is expected to grow at 21% CAGR and will reach $73 billion by 2023, it's the best time for IT and Engineering R&D (ERD) companies to strengthen their internal processes to ensure that mining customers are served in a better way. The mining solutions are driven by tightening regulations, shifting customer preferences, and higher compliance requirements. Mining companies must act on many fronts, changing supply networks, manufacturing processes, and business models. Companies are also rethinking how their products are designed, engineered, and used, looking for ways to meet performance and quality requirements while using fewer resources across the full life cycle of everything they make/implement/use. India is a leading software exporter, and many companies are supporting global mining customers across the world. It’s now the right time for IT and ERD companies to ensure that mining customers are supported in this fast-changing business and regulatory environment. For sustainable product development/services, companies need to put a strong internal Quality Management System (QMS), ensuring better compliance and usage of AI/ML and tools and related standards/certifications. So, the researcher is proposing a conceptual integrated QMS to support sustainable product development/services which can be used by IT and ERD companies developing mining solutions. The proposed system will provide a high-level view of the required standards, procedures, guidelines, templates etc., which will be compliant with the global sustainability standards/certifications requirements.

The mining industry faces significant challenges when it comes to ensuring the safety and security of heavy-duty trucks operating outside the boundaries of the mine through remote routes and mineral load monitoring. To address these concerns, this study proposes an approach to enhance safety and surveillance by utilizing the Global Positioning System (GPS) and load cell technology to track trucks beyond the mine boundary and mineral load monitoring. The developed system will provide real-time information about truck location, speed, mass theft, and idle routes. To achieve this, a GPS tracker is installed on the truck, providing accurate and reliable location data, and a load cell is installed to monitor the mineral load. This will help ensure compliance with safety regulations and prevent unauthorized stopping and mineral theft. To monitor the location, speed, mass theft, load monitoring, and unauthorized stoppings BLYNK application is used. This system will facilitate improved decision-making, enable timely response to emergencies, enhance operational efficiency, and reduce the risks associated with truck operations outside the mine.
