Effects of bed-material gradation on clear water scour at single and group of piles
Authors: Okhravi Saeid , Gohari Saeed , Alemi Mahdi , Maia Rodrigo
Published: February 2022

This study presents the results of 32 laboratory experiments on local scour at a single pile and a 1 × 4 pile group for both uniform and non-uniform sediments under clear water conditions. The present study aims to evaluate the effects of different sediment beds made up of mixtures of sand and gravel (four-bed configurations) in d
50 (1–3.5 mm) and gradation (1.4–3) ranges on scour depth for different flow discharges and flow depths. Further, the findings of the experiments are deployed to describe the effects of pile spacing and flow conditions on the local pier scour for both uniform and non-uniform bed granulometries. In addition, this study addresses the performance of some existing scour-depth predictors. Also, the corresponding results are suitable for validating the numerical models in local pier scour prediction importantly with non-uniform sediments. In summary, the results show that effects of sediment gradation dampen with increasing flow shallowness. Furthermore, the maximum scour depth at pile groups generally increases as pile spacing decreases for uniform sediments, whereas the mentioned trend was not observed for non-uniform sediments for the same flow and sediment conditions. Moreover, the experimental results revealed that bed sediment gradation is a controlling factor in the pile’s scour. Thus, the existing scour depth predictions could be highly improved by considering sediment gradation in the predictions. Finally, the conclusions drawn from this study provide crucial evidence for the protection of bridge foundations not only at the front pile but also at rear piles.

Published: February 2022

Nowadays, the competitive, fast-moving business environment has permanently transformed the supply chain and the management of its functions. Convinced of new opportunities offered by the global economy, Morocco has opted for a new industrial strategy based on Supply chain management practices aimed at improving the performance and making the country an attractive space for global value chains. The main aims of this paper are to evaluate the literature on the different definitions, approaches, trends and practices of the supply chain management, and presents results of a semi-directive qualitative study conducted in Morocco in order to obtain a deeper understanding of the supply chain management practices implemented in the Moroccan context. The results indicate that the practices of companies based in Morocco are highly linked to the management of the supplier and customer relationship and internal integration among the internal functions of the firms.
Corporate Social Responsibility Standards: Is it Possible to Meet Diverse Customer Requirements?
Authors: Sütőová Andrea , Kóča Ferdinand
Published: February 2022

The purpose of the study is to review the internationally recognised CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) standards, codes of conduct (cross-industry and industry-specific used in electronics, automotive and steel industry) and selected codes and supplier evaluation approaches applied by individual customer organisations. It also aims to identify problems related to CSR compliance demonstration from the view of supplier organization supplying its products for more industry sectors. Literature review, interview with the selected large manufacturing organisation and synthesis of information were conducted to achieve the purpose of the study. The difficulties for supplier organisations during CSR verifications and audits conducted by customers or third parties according to a variety of standards are discussed in the paper. It often results from different structure, terminology and content of the CSR standards and codes. One of the possible solutions is to create and maintain the intelligent database of CSR requirements of customer organisations. There is a lack of studies dealing with the existence of various CSR standards and codes and its impact on suppliers supplying their products to more industry sectors. The paper contributes to fill the knowledge gap and extend the existing literature.
Projects to Revive National Music in Warsaw in 1919–1926
Authors: Dziadek Magdalena
Published: February 2022

The year 1918 found Polish national music in a state of extreme neglect, to which had “contributed” — as far as Warsaw was concerned — the period of partitions as well as the time of the Prussian occupation (1915–1918). Attempts to catch up in the field of production and popularisation of national music made from late 1918 by Warsaw activists associated with the a disruption in the existing structure of the public following the influx into ruling party (National Democracy) came up against obstacles caused by Warsaw of impoverished Poles from the provinces, including Russia, as well as an intensification of conflicts between the Polish and Jewish populations. Programmes for a revival of the national music tradition focused primarily on practical actions aimed at improving the lot of Polish musicians by providing them with support from the state and educating a new Polish audience. The third aspect of these programmes was the organisation of a government campaign promoting Polish music abroad. The paper presents unknown sources from the daily Warsaw press of the first half of the 1920s illustrating Warsaw’s everyday musical life in these aspects.
The Ballets of Eugeniusz Morawski in the Context of the Search for Polish National Identity
Authors: Łapeta Oskar
Published: February 2022

The topic of this article is Eugeniusz Morawski’s ballet music analysed in the context of the search for national identity in Poland after it regained independence in 1918. The author’s reflection is focused on two fully preserved ballet compositions written in the 1920s. In the monumental four-part dance poem Miłość [Love] by Morawski, together with the author of the libretto, Franciszek Siedlecki, presents an allegorical journey of the pair of protagonists in search of spiritual renewal in a world threatened by progressive mechanisation. Their pilgrimage ends on Earth, and Mazurka is the central point of the last part of the composition. The two-part ballet Świtezianka [Fair Maiden from Svitez], written by the composer to his own libretto, contains in the first part a group scene in which the composer stylizes Polish folk dances. Morawski uses in these works numerous archaizing elements, such as col legno articulation in the strings or empty fifths in the bass; he also uses a pentatonic scale and modal scales, these fragments are distinguished by incisive rhythms. The composer’s treatment of folk material brings to mind an analogy between his work and the works of composers regarded as representatives of the national-folkloric trend in Polish music: Karol Szymanowski, Stanisław Wiechowicz and Roman Palester. Similar tendencies can also be observed in numerous literary and art works created during the inter-war period. A return to folklore and combination of its elements with modern composing techniques can also be found in the works of the most ou-standing representatives of the avant-garde: Igor Stravinsky and Béla Bartók.
National Icon and Cultural Ambassador: Zoltán Kodály in the Musical Life of State Socialist Hungary
Authors: Péteri Lóránt
Published: February 2022

In my paper, I wish to raise questions pertinent to the changing position of the composer, ethnomusicologist and musical educationalist Zoltan Kodály in the musical and cultural life of the Stalinist and post-Stalinist periods of Hungarian state socialism. Owing to his folkloristic and conservative musical style, and also his identity as “an educator of the people,” Kodály established his status as a fellow traveller of statesocialism in the early 1950s. The easiest way in Hungarian composition to satisfy the expectations of the political power, as inspired by Zhdanov’s aesthetics, was to follow the style of Kodály. At the same time, Kodály sustained his reputation as a “genuine” national icon whose music was capable of expressing, even if in riddle form, anti-Stalinist sentiments in the eyes of various political and cultural circles, especially after 1953. In spite of the fact that Kodály did not take any active part in the political struggles in the revolution of 1956, he was named as a candidate for head of state by important revolutionary forces.

Following the suppression of the revolution, the restored state socialist political power revised its practices in the field of art. The fact that the new cultural policy gave up the idea of a unified Hungarian art which is “national in form and socialist in content,” resulted in a temporary weakening of Kodály’s position. Kodály’s status was precarious, subjected to a challenge by avant-garde trends in composition and competing paradigms of musical education. From the early 1960s, however, when both the Western and Eastern political systems proposed strategies for long-term coexistence, Kodály gained a new function from the perspective of the political power. In Western cultural circles Kodály sustained a reputation as one of the great European humanists, and his music educational method generated a strong professional interest globally, and particularly in the usa. My paper also examines the cultural political impact of Kodály’s visit to Moscow in 1963. Kodály seems to have functioned as a mediator across the political divide. He had achieved great personal successes during his tours to the political West, and this reinforced his position in Hungary.
Institutions and the Efficiency of the European Union Product Market with an Emphasis on Croatia – Dynamic Panel Data Analysis
Authors: Dumančić Lucija Rogić , Bogdan Željko , Krištić Irena Raguž
Published: February 2022

The positive relationship between product market efficiency (PME) and productivity has been established in the existing literature. An important component of productivity is the PME, which is significantly affected by the quality of institutions. Weaker quality of institutions, higher levels of corruption and lower efficiency of product markets have been confirmed in countries that share similar characteristics with Croatia. The results show a positive relationship between the quality of institutions and PME while the link between corruption control and PME is negative. Exports and taxes were also significantly correlated with PME. The text additionally comments on the direction of this connection. The link between PME, institutional quality and corruption is particularly commented on in the context of Croatia and Slovenia as these are two areas that share a common past of approximately 500 years. To improve the PME, a prerequisite for greater productivity and consequently economic growth, it is necessary to change the institutional framework.
The Strategic Determinants of the Sport Club Performance
Authors: Ivašković Igor
Published: February 2022

This article aims to disclose the role of strategic factors in the context of a sport club performance. We used 73 basketball clubs from four countries and tested the relationships between four segments of variables (grouped into: a) environmental factors’ set, b) strategic factors’ set, c) human resource management (HRM) factors’ set, and d) behavioral factors’ set) and two different aspects of organizational performance: 1) top-sport-financial and 2) recreational-non-financial performance. The conduction of multiple regression analyses resulted with disclosure of significant direct effect of the strategic factor on both aspects of the sport clubs performance. The results offer explanation how the strategic planning enhances the performance. Better results are achieved by the clubs that pursue specific organizational goals linked to only one aspect of performance. While the theoretical contribution reflects through the evaluation of the importance of different sets of organizational performance factors, from the practical perspective tis study discloses complementary organizational objectives and those organizational aims which are, from an aspect of sport club performance, in contradiction with each other.

An Application of Stochastic Dominances in Sports Analytics
Authors: Fernández Ponce Jose María , Rodríguez Griñolo María del Rosario , Troncoso Molina Miguel Angel
Published: February 2022

Stochastic orders or stochastic dominance as they are known in Economics have been widely studied and applied in a variety of scientific fields, from Biology to Systems Engineering. However, to the best of our knowledge there is an application gap in the field of Sports Analytics or Sports Sciences. In this paper, we attempt a first approach to a possible application of stochastic orders to a dataset of LaLiga (Spain) football matches. Our aim is simply to show how a comparison can be extended beyond a simple metric comparison. In particular, we will focus on the first and second dominance stochastic orders as they are the most intuitive and simple to interpret and are also the most widely used in Economics.
Implementation of professional activity as an alternative to guilt in civil law: theory and practice
Authors: Lekanova Ekaterina Evgenevna
Published: February 2022

The subject of this research is the legal norms, doctrinal provisions and case law on the conditions of civil liability. The relevance of this topic is determined by the tendency to expand the list of cases of strict liability detected in comparison the current and Soviet legislation. However, the principle observed by the legislator in transferring cases from the "regime of fault liability" to the "regime of strict liability" is still a puzzle. For the purpose of systematicity of legislation and reasonable claim of strict liability, such principle should be captured in legislation. The goal of this research lies in determination of the condition of civil liability without fault. Using the method of legal induction, the author formulates the conclusion on the condition of strict liability based on the analysis of separate court decisions and legal norms dedicated to various cases of strict liability. A number of cases of civil liability without fault specified in the law are substantiated by a different (instead of fault) condition of liability, namely the implementation of professional activity that entailed civil violation. If the case of liability without fault specified in the law does not contain any other condition of liability alternative to fault, the corresponding rule should be excluded from the law due to groundlessness (for example, the rule on strict liability for obligations of the trustee in relation to individuals who are not the subjects of professional activity in this sphere; the rule on compensation for moral damages irrespective of guilt for distribution of discrediting information by a person who is not a professional distributor of mass media products). The author offers to legislate the principle of civil strict liability.
Environmental problematic in media space of Chelyabinsk
Authors: Dobrynina Iana Sergeevna
Published: February 2022

The object of this research is the new media that create the information space of Chelyabinsk, namely online media platforms. The subject of this research is the topic of environmental security of urban areas. The author aims to find and analyze the new media platforms that form the perception of ecological state of the city, as well as examine the role of users in distribution of eco-information through these platforms. The article employs the automated content analysis, which allows acquiring socially important information on environmental problematic by means of big data (using the “Medialogia” resource). The novelty consists in the empirical base, which consists of 1,050 online publications on the topic of ecology, as well as 5,400 postings in social networks for quantitative analysis along with 1,050 for qualitative analysis. The author also examines such indicators as the audience of postings, views and engagement of the audience, keynote of postings and comments, etc. The main conclusions are as follows: - the environmental agenda in media space of Chelyabinsk is relevant and sustainable; - the main topic of postings is the air pollution;  - online media platforms resort to the traditional delivery of information using frightening headlines     and repetitive visual symbols (factories, chimneys, smoke), which creates a stereotypical perception of the city’s image and concerns;  - due to the urgency of environmental problems for the residents, the audience shows high response rates;   - negativistic response of the audience prevails, as the users try to reach out to the authorities through personal postings and reposts of negative information.  
The level of development of digital hygiene skills of modern Russian youth: the results sociological research
Authors: Rudenkin Dmitry
Published: February 2022

This article is dedicated to the results of sociological research conducted by the author to reveal the actual degree of development of the skills for the safe use of information technologies characteristic to modern Russian youth. The rapid development of information technologies and their progressive infiltration into social reality contribute escalate new risks and dangers. High activity of the representatives of Russian youth in using such technologies turns the into a risk group vulnerable to the threats of information society. Thus, the question of compliance with the rules of safe use of information technologies is extremely relevant among Russian youth. Over the recent years, this topic gained popularity within the Russian social science and humanities, but mainly on the theoretical level. The author introduces the data of the original research conducted among the youth of Yekaterinburg (N = 504) for empirical diagnostics of the development of their digital hygiene. This study indicated the controversy and development disparity of digital hygiene skills of the representatives of Russian youth. It was established that many of them perceive high Internet activity as a source of potential risks and declare a desire to comply with the rules to reduce such risks. However, the analysis demonstrates that their actual propensity to comply with the rules of safe use of information technologies is limited: some rules are observed by many, but other are often neglected. It implies that the process of development of digital hygiene skills among the representatives of Russian youth is yet not complete: despite the desire to reduce the risks associated with the use of information technologies, many of them are willing to observe only certain rules.
Institutional biography of the Soviet painter: experience of comparative study
Authors: Rutsinskaya Irina
Published: February 2022

This article is first to conduct a comparative analysis of the biographies of two prominent Soviet painters – A. M. Gerasimov and S. V. Gerasimov. Emphasis is placed on the vectors and stages of the institutional biography of the artists, rather than their creative and personal life. People of the same generation, same education, virtually same life length, they were inscribed into a single system of cultural institutions, sought to achieve career success as the Soviet painters. At the same time, Aleksandr Gerasimov became the personification of the Stalinist era in art, having received all the highest posts and awards in the country, while Sergei Gerasimov throughout the 1930s – 1950s, although was officially recognized as a talented master, caused suspicions among the country’s leadership due to "proclivity for formalism". Thus, being a fairly successful artist, pedagogue and administrator, he was significantly inferior to his namesake in hierarchical ranking. A long life (both masters lived for about 80 years) allows considering the variations of the fate of the “elite” Soviet painters at the turn of eras. The “Thaw” was the time of “overthrow” of one artist and the “rise” of the other. Previous tremendous career achievements of Aleksandr Gerasimov were interpreted as a reflection of unscrupulousness of the painter, and less grandiose successes of Sergei Gerasimov were perceived as a sign of his behavioral reservedness. The fates of two outstanding Soviet painters demonstrate the invariants of institutional biography of the Soviet artist. Different proportions of talent, conformism, ambitions, and strive to achieve material wealth became the key components that led to different formulas for career success and different perception of such success by the contemporaries.
Cyber-attacks – an unlawful use of digital technologies
Authors: Shinkaretskaya Galina Georgievna , Berman Alisa Mikhailovna
Published: February 2022

This article notes that cyber-attacks, i.e. disruption of the information systems of persons, companies or countries, are a new type of criminal activity. International law does not yet have does not have normative documents that regulate the procedure of countering cyber-attacks. It is complicated by the fact that in the international law the grounds for taking coercive measures against other country is aggression (armed attack), which confers the right to individual or collective self-defense of the country. It is indicated that the doctrine legitimizes drawing parallels between common operation that are classified as the resorting to force, and the corresponding cyber operations. As the criterion of aggression, it is offered to use the assessment of the scale of attack and severity of consequences. The difficulty in qualifying the cyber-attack also lies in open architecture of the Internet, which allows billions of users worldwide to interact with each other. The aforementioned aspect also allows the hackers to hide their identity or even use someone else's device without their knowledge. All these difficulties aggravate if cyber operations are conducted by or on behalf of the countries. In fact, the cyber-attack participants do not bear any consequences for their actions. It is claimed that modern international law suggests both, intraterritorial or extraterritorial jurisdiction.
Medkonfesionalno sobivanje v zgodnjenovoveškem Podravju: primer protestantske dekliške šole Ane Totting v času protireformacije ▪︎ Confessional Coexistence in Early Modern Podravje: The Case of Anna Totting’s Protestant School for Girls during the Counter-Reformation
Authors: Oman Žiga
Published: February 2022

This paper addresses the confessional coexistence of Catholics and Protestants in sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century Ptuj and Maribor. Based on recent studies, the paper demonstrates that in the Lower Styrian Podravje region, as in many parts of Europe, confessional coexistence and tolerance were maintained by kinship, neighbourly, class and economic ties, which also impeded the Counter-Reformation at the local level. A prominent example of the long-lived tolerance in the Podravje region was Anna Totting's Protestant school for girls in the early seventeenth-century Ptuj. Despite the pressure of the princely Counter-Reformation, Anna's interconfessional familial and neighbourly solidarity enabled the school’s survival for almost a decade.
Javni spomeniki na Velikolaškem: ob sedemdeseti obletnici postavitve spomenika Primožu Trubarju na Rašici ▪︎ Public Monuments in Velike Lašče and Its Surroundings: On the Occasion of the Seventieth Anniversary of the Monument to Primož Trubar in Rašica
Authors: Dolšina Delač Marjana
Published: February 2022

Public monuments in many ways reflect the collective memory of a society and determine its attitude towards the past. With their artistic shape and message, they significantly co-shape contemporary public space. The region of Velike Lašče and its mostly rural surroundings importantly contributed to the development and establishing of the Slovene language through Primož Trubar, Fran Levstik, Josip Stritar and Jože Javoršek. Due to their status this area boasts several remarkable public monuments which span from the second half of the nineteenth century to the present day and commemorate important anniversaries honouring the local literati. The seventieth anniversary of unveiling of the monument to Primož Trubar in his native Rašica offers an opportunity for a systematic review and interpretation of public monuments in the Velike Lašče region and their wider contextualisation in relation to their local environment.
Protestantizem na Slovenskem v prvih šestih desetletjih 19. stoletja ▪︎ Protestantism in the Slovene Lands in the First Six Decades of the 19th Century
Authors: Rajšp Vincenc
Published: February 2022

The paper presents representations and conceptions of Reformation and Protestantism from the late 18th century to the early 1860s. Protestantism in the Habsburg Monarchy underwent a new development mainly after the Patent of Toleration by emperor Joseph II in 1781, when the Slovene Protestant parishes in Prekmurje and the only Slovene Crypto-Protestant community in Zagoriče in Carinthia reappeared. A new turning point came in 1848, when the concept of equality in the Austrian Empire encompassed languages as well as religions. The Slovene area at that time was characterized by a tolerant relationship between Catholics and Protestants in the cultural and national spheres. Slomšek’s view on the cultural significance of Slovene Protestants, as well as at the time still present German linguistic tolerance, enabled peaceful coexistence. The paper introduces in more detail the book about Primož Trubar by Wilhelm Sillem, which was published in 1861 and has heretofore not been noticed and considered in the historiography and biographies of Primož Trubar (with the exception of Jože Rajhman).
An NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision Production Function
Authors: Brook Stacey L.
Published: February 2022

Each year pundits across the NCAA football landscape debate the validity of various NCAA football teams’ relative worthiness to play for the national championship. Given this debate seems to revolve around which team is the best in terms of total team production, I have developed and statistically estimated a complex invasion NCAA football bowl subdivision production function measuring NCAA football team productivity covering the 2008 to 2017 seasons. The model estimates both points scored and points surrendered for each team during this time period and then is combined to determine each team’s overall productivity. Finally, as an application of the complex invasion college football production function model, I have ranked the overall productivity of the NCAA football bowl subdivision teams for the 2017 season to find the most productive team. The model concludes that the University of Alabama was the most productive team for the 2017 season.

Published: February 2022

As the National Hockey League (NHL) has made concerted efforts in recent years to expand into the Sunbelt region of North America, its teams still face tremendous challenges to building up their fan bases. Adopting a qualitative research protocol, this study explored the phenomenon of NHL fandom formation in the Sunbelt region. Research findings revealed key patterns and trends that influenced individuals to become fans of NHL teams in this strategic region of growth. A discussion of socialization into fandom was developed based on the themes and assertions derived in the study, which suggested that the fan community would play a significant role in fan identity formation and be a major driving force in the league’s market penetration into new marketplaces. The findings offer practical implications for teams to build and expand their fan bases and also provide a foundation for future quantitative investigations.
Physical Activity & The Sustainable Development Goals
Authors: Otterbein Melissa
Published: February 2022

With the worldwide rise in noncommunicable disease, physical inactivity, obesity, and the global presence of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), health and sport science practitioners must be able to address each of these health domains while considering frameworks for the most urgent health and human development priorities in a sustainable manner. The sector of sport for development, which uses physical activity, sport, and game-based programming to address specific development and peace initiatives to empower individuals and communities, is one such approach that practitioners can employ to address such challenges. During the 2000-2015 era of the United Nations (UN) Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the sport for development sector used sport to address several MDGs, contributing most significantly towards improving HIV/AIDS knowledge, attitudes, and behavior changes. Practitioners are still using sport to address the 2015-2030 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This article explores case studies of 17 sport for development initiatives that are meeting key targets for each of the 17 SDGs. Furthermore, it provides recommendations for how to further advance sport for development’s contributions. By synthesizing cost effective analyses and discussing key components to further the sport for development field, this article maps a way forward to advance sport for development as a cost-effective and viable tool for addressing the SDGs, reducing the effects of unresolved ACEs, and promoting physical activity to help individuals and communities lead healthy, empowered lives.
Risk and Uncertainty in Youth Sport
Authors: Hochstetler Douglas R.
Published: February 2022

An increasing number of children playing sports face pressure (both parental and societal) to specialize at an early age, to focus exclusively on one sport with the hope of securing a college scholarship. So-called “travel teams,” once the domain of tweens and teens, now extends to the very youngest children, with athletes (and parents) traveling exceedingly long distances, and spending large sums of money, virtually year-round.Through the course of this paper, I glean from both American philosophical themes, and current literature related to social change, to help at least partially answer this question regarding youth sport specialization. I contend that these conceptual ideas help provide language for us to think more clearly about some of the issues surrounding youth sport specialization.To begin, the potential downsides of youth sport specialization are patently clear. Focusing on one particular sport at a young age presents latent hazards. At an appropriate point, however, this specialization holds the potential for exploring the notion of commitment in extremis. After engaging in multiple sport options during elementary school years, the adolescent soccer player, for example, may decide to pursue the “beautiful game” to see what potential it may bring.My aim is to examine sport participation, specifically during the process where youth become committed to a particular sport. In this way, I move from issues of early exploration with youth sport to issues related to commitment and immersion. My contention is that youth sport participants who choose to focus on a particular sport, to make it their own, and make this decision (largely) on their own – act in a way which is consistent with the language of American philosopher, William James. James is fitting here, as Ilundain-Agurruza (2015) explains, because his works are “suited for a holistic conception of enactive performance . . . [and include a focus on] asceticism and risk, and those regarding cognition and action” (p. 259).
Dictatorship and Sports in Colombia
Authors: Raush Jane
Published: February 2022

Between 1954 and 1957, Gustavo Rojas Pinilla established the only military dictator- ship to occur in twentieth-century Colombia. Although historians have analyzed the regime from a variety of viewpoints, surprisingly none of them have considered the impact of Rojas’s policy toward sport, a remarkable omission since Latin American dictators who came to power after World War II tended to promote sports as a means to legitimize their rule. After brief reviews of literature concerning twentieth-century dictators and sports, and the fragmented nature of the Co- lombian state in the 1950s, this essay examines Rojas’s career before 1953, and shows how, after achieving power, he used the annual bicycle race known as the Vuelta a Colombia and partici- pation in the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games to enhance his regime’s acceptance. By contrast, his attempt to crush opposition during the 1956 bullfighting season exposed smoldering popular discontent to his continued heavy-handed rule and contributed to his ousting on May 10, 1957.
When Ford and Chevy Were Argentine
Authors: Sheinin David M.K.
Published: February 2022

This article focuses on Argentine car racing, and more specifically, the car racing class that from the 1930s through the early 1970s was the country’s most popular racing event, Turismo de Carretera (touring car racing or TC). For decades, TC drew thousands of fans on paved freeways, on closed speedways, and along rough-and-tumble dirt routes through cities, towns, and the countryside. In the performance, consumption, and narratives of TC, Argentines made U.S. car brands their own. American autos became Argentine. In part, this is an analysis of a culturally constructed hybridity, the Argentine-American car. But more than that, the paper argues that in the 1950s and 1960s, TC transformed quintessential U.S. brands and cultural markers into representations of Argentine daring and mechanical know-how. The central figures in that transformation were the legions of local mechanics who made American cars Argentine through their brilliance under the hood and sometimes, behind the wheel as well.

Pemeriksaan dengan EDAX menunjukkan bahwa bucket telah mengalami perbaikan dua kali dengan menggunakan coating masing-masing AlNi, ZrO dan adanya indikasi coating dengan menggunakan PtAI,. Pemeriksaan metalografis memperlihatkan adanya fasa sigma (CrCo) berbentuk plate / jarum, yang sangat getas dengan indikasi adanya peningkatan nilai kekerasan.

Telah terjadi kerusakan coating yang mengakibatkan teroksidasinya karbida / dan terjadi reaksi sulfida masing-masing pada batas butir yang menyebabkan timbulnya micro-crack. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa turbine bucket telah terekspose panas dengan temperatur sekitar 570-1093 C.

Akibat mekanisme kerusakan yang terjadi, maka turbine bucket tersebut memiliki kehandalan yang sangat rendah. Untuk mengembalikan pada kondisi semula perlu dilakukan reparasi dengan welding (rebuilding) yang dilanjutkan dengan proses heat treatment untuk menurunkan tegangan sisa hasil welding sekaligus mengembalikan sifat mekanik kepada kondisi semula sesuai disain.

Penggunaan logam pengisi berbentuk lembaran tipis masih belum banyak diketahui oleh para praktisi di lapangan untuk proses brazing. Penelitian dilakukan untuk mengetahui sifat-sifat mekanik (kekuatan tarik-geser dan kekerasan) dan perubahan struktur mikro pada sambungan lap-joint dengan memyariasikan ketebalan logam pengisi. Bahan yang digunakan sebagai logam induk adalah stainless steel AISI 304 dan logam pengisi paduan perak.

Proses brazing yang menggunakan furnace brazing dilakukan pada temperatur 850C. Hasil pengujian di laboratorium menunjukkan bahwa semakin tebal logam pengisi terjadi penurunan kekuatan tarik-geser sambungan. Kekuatan tarik-geser terbesar diperoleh pada tebal lapisan t, (0,03 mm atau 30 m) â€” 6,223 kg/mm'. Sedangkan kekerasan tidak mengalami perubahan yang signifikan, harga kekerasan logam induk berkisar 232,6 HV, antarmuka 161, 8 HV dan logam pengisi 34,5 HV. Terjadi penurunan ketebalan logam pengisi akibat adanya logam pengisi yang keluar dari daerah sambungan saat pencairan. Rata-rata penurunan ketebalan sebesar 1194 dari tebal awal. Pemeriksaan struktur mikro dengan mikroskop metalurgi dan SEM-EDS menunjukkan bahwa di logam induk dan di daerah antarmuka sambungan tidak berubah (fasa austenit), sedangkan pada daerah sambungan berfasa dendrit sebagai akibat logam pengisi mencair dan kemudian membeku. Tidak terjadi difusi atom-atom dari unsur-unsur yang terdapat dalam logam pengisi.

Homeostasis of Vata, pitta and Kapha dose maintain the normal physiology of body. Any internal and external factor which disturb the normalcy of tri-doshas will lead to generation of diseases .The prevalence of Vatavyadhis such as Gridhrasi, Amavata is continuously increasing day by day. Sandhivata is the disease described under vatavyadhi. Knee joint and small joints are more prone to be affected by this disease because they are the most commonly used joints in daily works. Aim of this study is evaluate the effect of Eranda tail in pure vata originated sandhivata at time of its accumulation. The study was a consecutive case series done on an OPD basis to study the pre- and post-effect of the treatment regime mentioned earlier on patients suffering from sandhivata. This study was conducted on five patients of sandhivata, in whom eranda tail was given as Shamana medicines for the 90 days at time of accumulation of vata dosha in grishma ritu. Use of eranda tail at time of accumulation of vata dosha showed significant improvement in symptoms of sandhivata on first year and showed complete remission of the disease if we give it for consecutive 2 years. It was concluded that the use of any shaman type shodhan aushadhi at time of accumation of dosha will subside that dosha and not allow it to convert into an ailment.

Published: February 2022

Motivation/Background: The legal problems found in providing compensation in land acquisition for the public interest are vague norms in the interests of justice and feasibility. The legislation on land acquisition has not explained the provision of compensation fairly and adequately. Method:  This research uses normative legal analysis. Results: This includes that the perspective of fairness in compensation for land acquisition is essentially still characterized by pragmatic development programs and conditions for compensation that the government has determined. Conclusions: This shows that the provision of compensation must refer to the theory of justice, the idea of practicality and the theory of legal certainty to realize the nature of a prosperous legal state based on Indonesian Socialism and Pancasila.

Fenomena ketimpangan antara jumlah penduduk dan ketersediaan lahan makin tidak seimbang dewasa ini. Kondisi ini berdampak pada tidak terpenuhinya  ketahanan pangan rumah tangga, gizi buruk, dan kejadian balita stunting. Tujuan penelitian adalah (1) Mengkaji ketahanan pangan rumahtangga yang mengalami kejadian stunting, (2) Menganalisis  perilaku terhadap keragaman pangan, pola makan dalam hubungannya dengan kejadian stunting, (3) Mengetahui strategi dan upaya yang dilakukan dalam mengatasi masalah stunting. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dan kualitatif dengan strategi penelitian studi kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ketahanan pangan rumah tangga masih dikategorikan agak rentan pangan karena keterbatasan dalam ketersediaan, stabilitas, aksebilitas dan keterjangkauan, kualitas dan keamanan pangan, sehingga melakukan strategi adaptasi untuk memenuhi pangan keluarga. Perilaku  terhadap keberagaman pangan  menunjukkan adanya keajegan antara sikap dan tingkah laku, ketidak ajegan dimana sikap tidak mempunyai hubungan dengan tingkah laku, dan adanya konsistensi kontingen dimana hubungan antara sikap dengan tingkah laku tergantung situasi tertentu. Penyebab stunting terdiri dari faktor ekonomi, sosial, lingkungan dan budaya. Beberapa strategi yang diupayakan untuk  menurunkan stunting adalah  meningkatkan kegiatan posyandu dan pemberian makanan sehat, penyuluhan tentang stunting dan memasyarakatkan tanaman kelor, membangun kampung KB.
