Assessment of Cryogenic Material Properties of R-PUF Used in the CCS of an LNG Carrier
Authors: Song Ha-Cheol
Published: August 2022

Reinforced polyurethane foam (R-PUF), a material for liquefied natural gas cargo containment systems, is expected to have different mechanical properties depending on its stacking position of foaming as the glass fiber reinforcement of R-PUF sinks inside R-PUF under the influence of gravity. In addition, since R-PUF is not a homogeneous material, it is also expected that the coordinate direction within this material has a great correlation with the mechanical properties. So, this study was conducted to confirm this correlation with the one between the mechanical properties and the stacking position. In particular, in this study, R-PUF of 3 different densities (130, 170, and 210 kg/m3) was used, and tensile, compression, and shear tests of this material were performed under 5 temperatures. As a result of the tests, it was confirmed that the strength and modulus of elasticity of the material increased as the temperature decreased. Specifically, the strength and modulus of elasticity in the Z direction, which was the lamination direction, tended to be lower than those in the other directions. Finally, the strength and elastic modulus of different specimens of the material found at the bottom of their lamination compared to the specimens with these properties found at positions other than their lamination bottom were evaluated. Further analysis confirmed that as the temperature decreased, hardening of R-PUF occurred, indicating that the strength and modulus of elasticity increased. On the other hand, as the density of R-PUF increased, a sharp increase in strength and elastic modulus of R-PUF was observed.

Generic competences are considered to be the ability of people to adapt to changes, relate to others and work collaboratively. The objective of this study was to compare the generic competences of university students from Peru and Cuba. The study sample consisted of 248 female students from public universities with current enrollment in Peru (127) and Cuba (121). The data collection was carried out using the questionnaire on generic competences of university students (CCGEU), the Cronbach's Alpha reliability value was .979, showing a high reliability of the instrument. The results show that the mean of generic competences in Peru is 3.88 and in Cuba is 3.84, which are adequate levels. In addition, the dimensions Systemic competence, Interpersonal competence and Instrumental competence show sufficient levels in both countries. It is concluded that the generic competences in Peru and Cuba reach adequate levels, so they were developed in university students in a similar way. These results may be due to the fact that the evaluated samples have adequately developed these competences that promote the relationship, integration and effective communication among peers in a constant social cooperation, teamwork and sense of leadership.

Published: August 2022

Technological education has changed lifestyles, and educational institutions need to prepare their learners with the necessary tools to be successful in real life. The objectives of the study are: 1) to explore learner’s achievements in reading comprehension with the use of e-Reading and traditional teaching methods, 2) to analyse the satisfaction of learners using e-reading and traditional teaching methods, and 3) to observe the effects of the learner’s reading comprehension while using e-reading methods versus traditional teaching methods based on a standard 80/80 criterion. The participants were sophomore learners enrolled in English courses. Thirty learners were selected by nonprobability sampling and divided into two groups, the experimental and control. The experimental group received lessons using an e-Reading programme, the control group was taught using a traditional teaching method. The research tools were pre- and post-tests, lesson plans, learners’ perception questionnaires, and interviews. Data collected through quantitative means were analysed using a t-test standard and average deviation programme. The interview data were analysed using a content analysis method. Data from the pre- and post-tests show that reading comprehension improved in the experimental group, who used the e-Reading programme. They also showed a “positive” attitude regarding their learning satisfaction and self-directed learning. The learners’ satisfaction and self-directed learning were higher in the e-Reading programme. Standard 80/80 criteria were met with an efficiency of 81.6/82.3 in the e-Reading programme. This research could be used as reference for further study and application of the e-Reading programme.

Published: August 2022

This study investigated the assessment techniques mathematics teachers use that integrate soft skills in secondary schools in Mazabuka District in Zambia. A total of 91 teachers, who were purposively selected, took part in the study, of which 81 completed a questionnaire and four observers evaluated 124 video-recorded lessons which were taken of 31 teachers. A sequential multi-phase design was used to collect data. The data were analyzed using frequencies, means, standard deviations and chi-square statistics. The findings revealed that the assessment techniques mathematics teachers used did not assess soft skills. In addition, mathematics teachers’ gender was not found to have influenced teachers’ choice of assessment techniques in the teaching and learning process but the type of schools where teachers were teaching, though the effect size was weaker. The consequence of this may be that secondary school leavers may not be good communicators, innovators, creators and critical thinkers. Therefore, it is recommended that mathematics teachers be upskilled on how to assess soft skills in the teaching and learning of Mathematics if the integration of soft skills is to be realized as espoused in the Zambia Education Curriculum Framework of 2013.

Published: August 2022

Background/Aim: Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) has been frequently used for airway management. But the satisfaction of the insertion and trauma at insertion remain problems. We present a new insertion maneuver for classical LMA (cLMA) with a partially inflated cuff and examine its success and complication rate.

Methods: In 4 months, 158 patients who were classified as ASA I–III and older than 18 years old and were planned for LMA were included in this study consecutively (according to the study design, one patient was excluded during the study). Emergency cases, patients with any contraindications with LMA, patients who were expected to undergo surgery for more than 2 h, patients with preoperative respiratory tract infection or sore throat, patients undergoing oral or nasal surgery, and patients with aspirated oropharyngeal secretions after removal of LMA was excluded from the study. Age, gender, height, weight, ASA scores, comorbidities, and the duration of anesthesia and surgery of the patients were recorded. One-hundred-fifty-seven consecutive patients were randomized into two groups by a coin toss [control group (group C) and study group (group S)]. The groups were compared in terms of LMA insertion success, the number of insertion attempts, the presence of blood on the LMA or in secretions, and postoperative sore throat. Classical Laryngeal Mask Airway was inserted with Brain’s standard technique in group C and with the new technique in group S. In the new technique, the head and neck of the patient were supported in a straight position, the mouth was opened, cLMA was held with a dominant hand from the tube part and inserted until the tip touches to the oropharynx. The index finger of the non-dominant hand was inserted into the mouth to pass by the cLMA and reach the tip of the cLMA. The tip of cLMA was directed to the caudal by the index finger. Then, cLMA was inserted by the guidance of the index finger until it reached the triangular base of the oropharynx.

Results: There was no statistically significant difference in terms of demographic data and placement success; placement success was better in the study group (100% versus 98.6% and P = 0.45). Similarly, the count of attempts was better in the study group. The mean attempt number was 1.11 in group S and 1.28 in group C (P = 0.02). Also, blood on LMA was seen to be more common in group C (P = 0.04). There were no statistical differences in sore throat, but it was less seen in group S.

Conclusion: The new maneuver was better than the standard technique and easy to use in daily practice.

Published: August 2022

The Pademawu coast has rapidly transformed into salt ponds, causing seawater intrusion and pollution. This study aims to examine the quality of groundwater in the surrounding settlement area of Pademawu and assess its eligibility for daily use. The psychochemical parameters of groundwater are measured in situ. Groundwater samples from several stations are analyzed in the laboratory and used to collect several chemical compounds, including Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, HCO3-, Cl-, SO42-, Fe2+, Mn2+, F-, NO2-, NO3, and CaCO3. The detected concentrations are then used to calculate TH, sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), %Na, PI, KR, and MH. Hydrochemical calculation and interpretation are also performed. The groundwater characteristics are determined according to TDS, conductivity, and water quality index (WQI). Results showed that the groundwater facies are predominated by Ca-HCO3 (50%) in the northern and middle study areas and Na-Cl (37%) in the salt farming area. The groundwater is categorized as SAR (C2S1) in the north and SAR (C4S2) in the south. The primary groundwater consists of Na+ and Cl- (dominant cation and anion) originating from salt farming. The TDS in the salt farming area ranges from 1000 mg/L to 3000 mg/L (slightly saline). The WQI ranges from 39.0 to 735.4, which encompasses excellent water, good water, very poor water, and unsuitable for consumption. Salt farming infiltration toward unconfined aquifers is the primary factor causing groundwater pollution. Mitigation efforts to minimize scattered infiltration must be applied in the Pademawu Subdistrict by modifying the system between salt farming and settlement areas.

Depression is a major mood illness that causes patients to experience significant symptoms that interfere with their daily activities. As technology has developed, people now frequently express themselves through social media, especially Twitter. Twitter is a social media platform that allows users to post tweets and communicate with each other. Therefore, detecting depression based on social media can help in early treatment for sufferers before further treatment. This study created a system to detect if a person is indicating depression or not based on Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale - 42 (DASS-42) and their tweets using the Classification and Regression Tree (CART) method with TF-IDF feature extraction. The results show that the most optimal model achieved an accuracy score of 81.25% and an f1 score of 85.71%, which are higher than baseline results with an accuracy score of 62.50% and an f1 score of 66.66%. In addition, we found that there were significant effects on changing the value of the maximum features in TF-IDF and changing the maximum depth of the tree to the model performance.

Published: August 2022

The company's gross profit plays an important role in boosting the Gross Regional Domestic Product (PDRB) which will affect the revenue of local governments, known as Pendapatan Asli Daerah. Local governments often need information how gross profits of companies are different within each sector. It is not easy to investigate this matter especially if these companies are observed repeatedly and subsectors are nested within the sector. In this study, three factors were involved, i.e., sectors, subsectors which are nested in a particular sector, and time. It is assumed that the sectors and time of observation are fixed, whereas the subsectors are random. The response variable is the average gross profit per subsector of public companies in West Java. The objective of this study is to identify the variation of the subsectors, the effects of sectors as well as time on the average of the gross profit. Since the study involves fixed and random factors and the gross profit rate was observed more than one time, then a nested mixed model with repeated measurement is used. The results showed that there was no sector effect on the average gross profit, there is a variation in the average gross profit per subsector that is nested within the sector, and the time of observation did not influence the average gross profit.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) is a microorganism that biologically affects plant enzymes and plant nutrients. AMF production development techniques need to be improved with the addition of nutritional fortification to produce quality AMF products. The research aimed was to cultivate AMF with complete fertilizer nutrition and different fertigation systems on Sorghum bicolor. The study used a 2 x 3 factorial randomized design with A factor: fertigation system (flat and terraced) and B factor: fertilizer nutrient levels (1000ppm, 2000ppm, 3000ppm). The results showed that the flat fertigation system had a significant different (p<0.05) on plant height, the number of leaves, stem diameter, and fresh biomass. However, in the high-level fertigation system, numbers of leaf, stem diameter, and fresh biomass did not have significant difference. There was no interaction between the fertigation and nutrient fortification systems. Sorghum panicle age started at 75 yields after planting (DAT). The relationship between percent infection and the number of spores showed a low level of correlation with R2 = 0.032. It can be concluded that the best fertigation system was a flat fertigation system for all nutrient fortifications, with the best average yield on 2000ppm nutrient fortification.

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of vitamin E supplementation at different levels of ration nutrition on the variables. 160 IPB-D3 chickens were reared from grower to finisher with 16 experimental units. The experimental design used factorial RAL (2x2) with 4 replications. The first factor was the type of ration namely control rations with nutrient requirements equal to SNI and rations with nutrient requirements more than 10% of SNI (treatment rations) and the second factor was without and with vitamin E supplements 200 ppm vitamin E supplementation. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and Duncan's follow-up test. The variables used included performance, lymphoid organs, blood profile, MDA, and catalase. The results showed that the treatment did not have significant effect on performance, but rations with nutrient content >10% SNI were able to increase body weight gain of IPB-D3 chickens compared to other treatments. The type of ration had a significant effect (p<0.05) on the thymus organ.Vitamin E supplementation was able to increase hemoglobin and basophil levels (p<0.05). There was an interaction between the type of ration and vitamin E supplementation on MDA and catalase (p<0.05). Provision of rations with the nutrient content >10% SNI increased catalase activity. Vitamin E supplementation suppressed the formation of MDA in rations with nutrient content >10% SNI. It can be concluded that supplementation of vitamin E 200 ppm with different rations still maintained lymphoid organs and blood profiles in normal conditions, suppressed MDA formation and increased the antioxidant enzyme activity.

There are various studies on AGP substitute feed additives that provide many options for solutions related to the problem of maintaining gut health. Therefore, it is necessary for a fundamental evaluation of the use of some feed additives on the response of livestock. The purpose of this engineering practice is to find best solution for growth promoter antibiotics (AGP) alternatives that can be effectively used in laying hens Farm. Trials of several probiotic and organic acid product supplementation were carried out on 21,000 laying hens of the HyLine Brown strain aged 50 weeks for 1 month. Tested products were protected probiotic powder (OGC), liquid probiotics (PBL) and liquid organic acids (APK), these products were evaluated based on production egg quality and cost feasibility studies. Data on egg production and egg quality  were analyzed using ANOVA and then actually compared between treatments with Tukey's test (p<0.05) and also compared based on production standards from producers/breeders. The trial results showed that the use of liquid probiotics (PBL) resulted in the highest egg production and egg weight, organic acid products (APK) resulted in higher distribution of large eggs and more efficient feed conversion, the use of protected probiotic powder (OGC) resulted in highest haugh unit. The economic feasibility study shows that organic acid products (APK) produce the highest return on investment value. The concluded showed that organic acid product (APK) will be effectively used in laying hens Farm.

El enraizado de estaquillas permite propagar plantas de ornato difíciles de reproducir por semilla. Cedro limón (Cupressus macrocarpa var. lutea) es muy utilizado con fines ornamentales. El efecto de tres factores se evaluó sobre la supervivencia y el crecimiento de la raíz primaria de cedro limón: dos sustratos (mezcla base y perlita), cuatro enraizantes (Radix® 1500, Radix® 10000, Raizone® Plus y Raizplant® 500) y testigo (sin enraizante), además dos estados de madurez de las estaquillas (tiernas y lignificadas). El diseño experimental fue bloques al azar con arreglo factorial 2*5*2. La evaluación se hizo a los cuatro meses del inicio del enraizado. Las variables se analizaron con las pruebas de Kruskal Wallis y de Dunn para comparar medias pareadas y se aplicó la prueba de comparaciones múltiples de medias de Dunnett. Diferencias significativas se obtuvieron para la supervivencia por efecto del enraizante y la madurez de las estaquillas, además de la triple interacción de los factores evaluados. La supervivencia mayor (45 %) se logró utilizando perlita más Radix® 1500 y estaquillas lignificadas. El crecimiento más grande de la raíz primaria se registró sin enraizante y con estaquillas tiernas (11.75 cm) y lignificadas (10.87 cm), sin importar el sustrato. Aunque, el crecimiento de raíz fue superior sin enraizante, se recomienda usar Radix® 1500 para promover la formación de callo y garantizar mayor supervivencia. El sustrato, enraizante y tipo de estaquilla influyen en la supervivencia y crecimiento de la raíz primaria de estaquillas de cedro limón.
Metamorfosis de la política forestal mexicana contemporánea y su impacto en el sector forestal
Authors: Caballero Deloya Miguel
Published: August 2022

México es una nación dotada de un rico y diversificado recurso forestal. Este capital natural fue severamente explotado por largo tiempo. En 1926, se decretó la primera ley forestal. Su propósito fundamental fue la preservación y la protección de los bosques. Después de esta legislación pionera, se han decretado siete leyes forestales en respuesta a la evolución de la sociedad y a la cambiante perspectiva de la importancia del recurso forestal a lo largo de los años. Las políticas más relevantes han sido: (a) Conservación del recurso; (b) Promoción de la industria forestal; (c) Desarrollo de la población rural y comunidades forestales; y (d) Desarrollo forestal sustentable. En la nación, cada seis años -la duración del periodo presidencial- se aplica una política forestal diferente. Cada gobierno federal elabora e implementa un nuevo Plan Nacional de Desarrollo, el que a su vez define nuevas políticas públicas sectoriales, como es el caso del sector forestal. A lo largo del siglo pasado y lo que va del actual, 18 gobiernos federales han establecido estrategias para la preservación, manejo y uso de los ecosistemas forestales. Un análisis histórico de las políticas forestales aplicadas revela fluctuaciones en objetivos, prioridades y esquemas de implementación. Una evaluación de los resultados de la política pública en materia forestal, basada en los componentes de efectividad, eficacia y sustentabilidad, aporta evidencia de logros limitados desde las perspectivas ambiental, social y económica. Se precisa de planeación de largo plazo y políticas efectivas para afrontar los retos presentes y futuros.

The Covid-19 health protocol is a regulation by government to feel safer doing activities during Covid-19 pandemic. Generally, spread of Covid-19 occurs in public places, one of which is a shop. By building an IoT tool that is expected to be able to detect early on the potential for someone to contract Covid-19 by detecting body temperature and mask when entering a store. Shop owners can see people who have the potential for Covid-19 and customers who are wrong/not wearing masks, using IoT functions to send data between sensors so that shop owners can monitor website-based systems. From the test results, the success rate of tools and algorithms is 78.38% of data that successfully detects temperature and masks, then there are 29.62% of data that fail to detect masks and temperatures. The data is then recorded in a JSON file which will be displayed into a website-based information system.

Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a wireless telecommunications technology that consists of a collection of dynamic nodes. Due to these properties resulted in the mobility of nodes in MANET. So that every relationship between nodes will always change and cause the process of finding a vulnerable route to take a long time. Each node also has a role as a host or router in exchanging information. In MANET delivery assurance and the ability to deal with path changes on an ad hoc basis are critical. So that in sending data packets from the source node to the destination node, a Routing protocol is needed. The routing protocol Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) in the route search process broadcasts RREQ to all neighboring nodes (intermediate nodes) without knowing whether the node is the best node or not. So that the possibility of the route being interrupted because it is not composed of the best nodes can occur. A modification of the DSR routing protocol is proposed by finding the best intermediate node based on parameters, namely bandwidth, RTT, packet loss ratio. Then the neighboring nodes (intermediate nodes) that have been selected will arrange the delivery route from the source node to the destination node. The performance of the modified DSR and DSR routing protocols will then be measured using test parameters, namely throughput, packet delivery ratio (PDR) and average end to end delay. Based on the results of research trials, the application of the modified DSR method can improve the performance of the DSR protocol. Which after the application of the method, the average throughput increased by 25%, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) was 1.11% and the average end-to-end delay decreased by 17.64 %.

Over the past decades, Ukraine has built an increasingly dynamic agricultural sector, characterized by growing export engagement in various commodities. Whether the country can quickly regain its status of a key player on the world agri-food markets amid and after Russian invasion is extremely important for international food security. However, the to-date understanding of the recovery potential remains elusive due to the lack of systematic and objective insights into the major drivers of recent growth. Scarce evidence suggests that Ukraine’s agriculture has been successfully modernized mainly due to the efforts of private sector actors operating in the context of generally inconsequent policies typical of a transition country. The following factors have been reported to contribute to recent modernization and development of the sector: a) improvement of efficiency and productivity, especially in crop production; b) structural change involving a rapid development of large-scale agroholdings; and c) relatively positive public acceptance of modern technologies and organizational forms of agricultural production. The present paper reviews these trends in greater detail by addressing the role of professional farm management, digital technologies, ongoing optimization of the size of production operations (including horizontal and vertical integration through merger and acquisitions) as well as farm engagement in sustainability and legitimation activities as the main enterprise-level drivers of growth and resilience in Ukrainian agriculture.

El género Fulica consta de 11 especies a nivel mundial, de las cuales seis habitan Argentina. El presente trabajo trata sobre la biología reproductiva de cuatro especies de Fulica residentes en un humedal de altura, en la provincia de Tucumán. El Embalse La Angostura se encuentra en el departamento de Tafí del Valle, Tucumán; a unos 2000 m snm y cuenta con un espejo de agua de 12 Km. Allí es común observar una gran diversidad de aves acuáticas, entre ellas, a F. armillata, F. leucoptera, F. rufifrons y F. ardesiaca las cuales son el objeto de este estudio. Entré agosto de 2004 a diciembre de 2005 se realizaron monitoreos en los sitios de nidificación. Allí se tomaron datos tales como: las medidas de los nidos y el tipo de material empleado en su construidos; el número, el tamaño y patrón de coloración de los huevos de cada nidada; la presencia de pichones, juveniles o inmaduros; y un banco de imágenes para una mejor descripción de las diferentes etapas de la biología reproductiva. Entre los resultados obtenidos más relevantes están: el uso de plásticos en la nidificación (primer registro en Argentina), que las nidadas fueron menores a lo documentado en otros estudios y el posible parasitismo de cría intraespecífico de Fulica ardesiaca en nidos de Coscoroba coscoroba. Para poder corroborar dichos resultados sería importante realizar estudios más profundos de manera sistemática y a más largo plazo.
