Authors: Islahiha Nur Azmil , Frita Nur , Maulana Reza
Published: July 2020

Salah satu yang menjadi permasalahan utama hampir di setiap negara terutama Negara berkembang adalah masalah kesenjangan. Kesenjangan dapat terjadi dalam segala aspek sosial, hal ini disebabkan karena ketidakmerataan pendistribusian. Kesenjangan biasanya terjadi pada ketidakmerataan pendistribusian aspek-aspek perekonomian sehingga muncullah istilah kesenjangan sosial ekonomi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalis kesenjangan sosial ekonomi di indonesia beserta solusinya menurut tinjauan sistem ekonomi syariah. Penelitian ini di laksanakan dengan kajian kepustakaan dari sumber-sumber literasi yang terkait dan relevan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian muncullah kesimpulan bahwa Ketidakmerataan pendistribusian terjadi karena adanya ketidakterbatasan hak kepemilikan pribadi dalam sistem perekonomian konvensional sehingga alur pendistribusian tidak dapat berjalan dengan semestinya. Oleh karenanya perlu diperhitungkan penerapan ekonomi syariah sebagai salah satu solusi untuk dapat meratakan pendistribusian secara sendirinya salah satunya melalui kebijakan zakat, infak, dan sedekah.

Authors: Yani Ahmad , Mulyadi Asep , Ruhimat Mamat
Published: July 2020

This research attempted to find whether spatial intelligence (without context) has a correlation to (contextual) spatial ability and affects geographic skills as crystallized ability (Gc). It employed the descriptive method with subjects including students at the primary, junior high, and senior high schools. The data were collected through two instruments, namely test and questionnaire. Data of test results were processed by tabulation technique and correlated for the scores of spatial intelligence, spatial ability, and geographic skills. The results show that spatial intelligence (Gf) tended to increase from the level of primary to junior high and to senior high school level, whereas spatial ability (Gc) and geographic skills (Geo-s) tended to decrease. Despite the decline, all three (Gf, Gc, and Geo-s) had the potentials for improvement. Thus, geography teachers are encouraged to participate in improving students’ spatial and geographic skills, so students can develop their potentials optimally for geographic skills and future career development. Keywords: contextualization, crystallized intelligence, geographic skills, spatial intelligence, intelligence and skill correlation.

Extended Finite Element Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Meso-Scale Modeling
Authors: Abbas Eman , Al-zuhairi Alaa H.
Published: July 2020

Four simply supported reinforced concrete (RC) beams were test experimentaly and analyzed using the extended finite element method (XFEM). This method is used to treat the discontinuities resulting from the fracture process and crack propagation in that occur in concrete. The Meso-Scale Approach (MSA) used to model concrete as a heterogenous material consists of a three-phasic material (coarse aggregate, mortar, and air voids in the cement paste). The coarse aggregate that was used in the casting of these beams rounded and crashed aggregate shape with maximum size of 20 mm. The compressive strength used in these beams is equal to 17 MPa and 34 MPa, respectively. These RC beams are designed to fail due to flexure when subjected to load as a two-point loading. To model the coarse aggregate realistically, the aggregate must distributed randomly according to the gradient and amount actually used in the mix design. This property is not found in the ABAQUS program that resulted in the use of an alternate program to represent the aggregate randomly. Next, the random representation of the aggregate were transfered to the ABAQUS program by using commands and instructions that the program can understand, to draw as a sketch. The comparison between experimental and numerical results showed that the XFEM is a good method used to simulate the non-smooth behavior in RC beams such as discontinuitiy and singularity. While a mesoscale model can be simulated the non-homogeneity in the concrete.
Prediction of Mechanical Properties of Local Concrete in Compression Using Artificial Neural Networks
Authors: Mohamad Baylasan , Alamoudi Soleman , Issa Abd alrahman
Published: July 2020

Mechanical properties of concrete are highly dependent on the local materials used in its preparation. experiments on ready mix concrete in our region illustrate the actual behavior of concrete produced by local materials. Six standard cylinders (D=150mm, H=300mm) were casted of most ready mix concrete in central area in Syria (13 of them) covering a wide range of compressive strength . Tests were carried out using a testing machine which gives the applied force values and the corresponding displacement simultaneously until failure. The mean curves representing the (stress-strain) relationship of concrete in compression are drawn, from which the mechanical properties of each mixture were derived, such modulus of elasticity compressive strength ,  and the corresponding strain . Artificial neural networks were trained on experimental test results (using MATLAB). The laws of concrete behaviour were well assimilated by Artificial neural networks, which is possible to be used as an alternative method of available models of stress-strain relationship, by predicting the curve directly for various concrete mixtures prepared using local materials with different mixing ratios, or a complementary method through the adoption of an appropriate mathematical model and then predict its parameters ( ، ، ). ANNs proved their ability to predict mechanical properties of concrete better than linear regression equations, which promises a more accurate and comprehensive prediction.
Bioactivities of Stixis suaveolens (Roxb.) Fruit Extract: An Evaluation in Mice Model
Authors: Islam Md Monirul , Ahmed Tufael , Khatun Hajera , Rashid Mohammad A
Published: July 2020

The fruits of Stixis suaveolens (Roxb.) have been a popular folk medicine among traditional practitioners. However, there are questions about its traditional uses due to lack of scientific evidence. This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of crude methanol extract of fruits of S. suaveolens in mice model. The central and peripheral analgesic activity were evaluated using the ‘tail flick’ and ‘writhing’ assay respectively. The anti-hyperglycemic potential was assessed by the ability of the crude extract in reducing blood glucose level in mice after oral administration of glucose. Oral administration (400 mg/kg bw) of the extract showed significant (p<0.001) delay in pain sensation and inhibition of acetic acid induced writhing response in mice model. The results were compared with the respective standard morphine (2 mg/kg bw) and diclofenac (50 mg/kg bw). Likewise, in anti-hyperglycemic assay, maximum reduction (p<0.001) of blood glucose level (39.6%) was observed 120 min after oral intake (400 mg/kg bw) of the extract as compared that exhibited by the standard drug, glibenclamide (46.83%). The in vivo bioassays confirmed that the crude methanolic extract of fruits of S. suaveolens possesses significant central- and peripheral-analgesic as well as anti-hyperglycemic activities. These findings justify its popularity as a traditional medicine and hence demands future study involving isolation and characterization of its bioactive compounds.

A Comprehensive Study on Availability of Anti-cancer drugs in Dhaka City, Bangladesh
Authors: Reza Rumman , Samdani Md Nazmus , Morshed Niaz , Ahmed Nusrat
Published: July 2020

With the increasing rate of people being affected by cancer in Bangladesh, the disease has become a national concern. Anti-cancer drugs play a significant and crucial role in cancer treatment regimen. Inadequate access to essential anti-cancer medicines may impose serious public health problems in Bangladesh. The present study gives an insight on the availability of eleven WHO enlisted essential anticancer drugs that are commonly prescribed for the top five prevalent cancer types (Breast, Oesophagus, Lung, Cervix, Lips and Oral cavity) in Bangladesh. Expert advice on which essential anti-cancer medicines are commonly prescribed were gathered from oncologists of three medical college hospitals (Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH), Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) and National Institute of Cancer Research and Hospital (NICRH). The study was conducted among a total of 151 pharmaceutical drug stores including 119 retail, 27 model and 5 hospital pharmacies. The sample size of 151 pharmacies was calculated for 4547 pharmacies in Dhaka district with 95% confidence interval and 8% margin of error. It was found that 74% of the pharmacy stores surveyed kept no anti-cancer drugs at all. There is a significant negative relationship between price and availability of oncology medicine for which Pearson’s correlation co-efficient ‘r’ is found to be -0.739 (p=0.01). This means that high priced medicines are less available. Pharmacy stores keep anti-cancer drugs from both local (81.9%) and foreign (18.1%) pharmaceutical companies. In order to evaluate sales performance of pharmacies in context of oncology drugs, monthly number of cancer patients buying medicines from these pharmacies has been studied as well. It has been found that supply of anti-cancer drugs by pharmaceutical companies among medicine stores is not homogenous. Availability and sales rate of oncology products in some pharmacies situated within the same area is way more than others and the number of customer (cancer patient) varies by wide margins. A comparative analysis on availability rate of model versus retail pharmacies in different areas of Dhaka city has been carried out. Retail pharmacies near cancer-care hospitals tend to keep more anti-cancer medicines compared to those situated away from cancer-care hospitals.

Published: July 2020

As one of the fundamental human rights, healthcare is usually sought during illness episode. A questionnaire-based survey was conducted on 221 residential university students to identify the existing disease patterns and treatment seeking behaviors. Among the students, 22.17% were devoid of normal body-weight and 45.7% of them exercise at least three days a week. Based on smoking habits they were non-smoker (60.18%), smoker (25.34%), and second-hand smoker (14.48%). Besides, 33.03% of them have an allergy (seasonal: 24.43%; perennial: 8.60%) and 75.11% of students’ family members have or had at least one of the eight specified diseases. In 2019, around 98% of the students had suffered from at least one illness like fever-all types (86.43%), common cold (52.94%), diarrhea (20.36%), cough (46.61%), nasal congestion (10.86%), pain/aches-all types (25.79%), gastric problems (49.32%), skin diseases (15.38%), dental diseases (1.36%), eye diseases (0.9%), and many other diseases (4.52%). To mitigate these illnesses majority took medications instead of self-recovery that was highest for dental and eye diseases (100%), and lowest for cough (58.25%) and nasal congestion (58.33%). Usually, 61.99% of the residents go to Government Hospital (DMCH: 45.70%, BSMMU: 9.95%) for seeking treatment followed by University Medical Center (41.63%), Private Medical Consultant (5.88%), Private Hospital (4.52%), and others (3.62%). Moreover, 67.42% of the students take prescribed medicines as stated in prescriptions. As there is a tendency among 83.26% of the students to take medicines without prescriptions, raising awareness on the detrimental impacts of self-treatment is needed to refrain them from self-medication practices.

Published: July 2020

In order to evaluate the forage productivity and the morphogenic and structural characteristics of Megathyrsus maximus cultivars (Massai, Mombasa, Kenya, Tamani, Tanzania and Zuri), an experiment was conduct under natural environmental conditions in the savannahs of Roraima. The highest yields of green dry matter (GDM) were found with cultivars Zuri (4,317 kg ha-1) and Mombasa (4,115 kg ha-1), followed by Kenya (3,868 kg ha-1) and Tamani (3,755 kg ha-1), while Massai (3,341 kg ha-1) and Tanzania (3,225 kg ha-1) were the least productive. GDM yield was directly correlated with LAI and inversely proportional to tiller population density (TPD). The cultivars Tanzania and Kenya had the highest number of tiller leaves and leaf appearance rates, while the highest leaf expansion rates were estimate in cultivars Zuri and Kenya. The highest average length of tiller leaves was estimate in the cultivars Zuri and Mombasa. Leaf senescence rates were inversely proportional to TPD and the highest recorded with the cultivars Mombasa and Tamani. The six cultivars of M. maximus showed satisfactory forage yields and can be recommend for cultivation in the edaphoclimatic conditions of the of Roraima’s savannas. The determination of morphogenic and structural characteristics can contribute to the establishment of appropriate and specific management practices for each cultivar, aiming to optimize its productivity and reduce losses due to leaf senescence.

Published: July 2020

This paper seeks to slightly explore the issue of cross-cultural understanding that might be beneficial for lecturers of the Muhammadiyah University of Enrekang who have won further study scholarships abroad as well as lecturers who are planning to continue their studies abroad. Understanding different cultures are extremely fundamental as a result of the absence of information culture assumes a job in the utilization of improper correspondence language. Elements of contrasts in an individual's way of life can likewise make individuals look prejudiced toward individuals with various societies. As a lecturer who will be assigned to study abroad, it is very important to "interpret" the behavior, attitudes, and communication styles of people from various cultures. Sometimes hinder a person to be able to complete studies abroad is not because of limited intelligence but because of limited ability to understand and accept the new culture contained in the destination country to learn. We hope that this paper can provide a little inspiration for prospective scholarship recipients of foreign scholarships to prepare themselves as well as possible including non-academic factors.

Haksız Fiillere Ceza Kanunlarındaki Zamanaşımının Uygulanması
Authors: ALTIN Hayrunnisa
Published: July 2020

6098 sayılı Türk Borçlar Kanunu m.72/I’e göre, haksız fiillere ceza kanunlarındaki zamanaşımının uygulanabilmesi için haksız fiilin cezalandırılabilir olması ve bu fiil için ceza kanunlarında öngörülen zamanaşımının haksız fiillere uygulanan iki yıllık “nispi” ve on yıllık “mutlak” zamanaşımından uzun olması gerekmektedir. Ancak, ceza kanunlarındaki zamanaşımı; uygulanma alanı, başlangıcı, durma ve kesilme nedenleri yönünden nispi ve mutlak zamanaşımı sürelerinden farklıdır. Bu ise ceza kanunlarındaki zamanaşımının haksız fiillere uygulanmasında sorunlara neden olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, ceza kanunlarındaki zamanaşımı kavramı, bu zamanaşımının uygulanma şartları, cezalandırılabilir haksız fiilin ve tazminat sorumlularının nitelikleri ele alınmaktadır. Ceza kanunlarındaki zamanaşımının haksız fiillerdeki uygulanma şekli konusunda uygulamada ortaya çıkabilecek sorunlara çözümler getirilmektedir.

Published: July 2020

Bu çalışmada, öncelikle, hava araçlarının, taşınırlara ilişkin genel hukukî rejimden farklı olarak, neden sicile kaydedilerek rehnedilmesi gerektiği üzerinde durulmuştur. Ardından hava araçları üzerinde tesis edilebilen bazı teminatları uluslararası düzeyde koruyan Cape Town Sözleşmesi’nin ve buna ilişkin Protokol’ün etkileri ele alınmıştır. Sonrasında, Türk Sivil Havacılık Kanunu’na göre hangi hava araçları üzerinde ipotek kurulabileceği incelenmiş ve hava aracı ipoteğine hâkim olan ilkeler irdelenmiştir. Devam eden bölümlerde, sözleşmeye dayanan hava aracı ipoteğinin tesisinden sona ermesine kadar olan tüm süreç ortaya koyularak tartışmalar ve sorunlara ilişkin değerlendirmeler yapılmıştır.
Kolonyalizm ve Düzeltici Adalet Yaklaşımları
Authors: YILDIZ Elif
Published: July 2020

Geçmişte bir topluluğun bir başkasına karşı gerçekleştirdiği (soykırım, sürgün, köleleştirme, toprağa ve mallara el koyma gibi) haksız muameleler sebebiyle doğan zararların düzeltici adalet çerçevesinde ele alınması akademik yazında yeni bir eğilim değildir. Kolonyalizmden doğan zararlar da benzer şekilde düzeltici adalet tartışmaları ışığında değerlendirilmiş ve çeşitli düzeltici adalet yaklaşımları kolonyalizmin zararlarının nasıl düzeltileceğine dair argümanlar ortaya koymuşlardır. Kolonyal telafi savunucuları, kolonyalizmin varlığını devam ettirmesi, verilen zararların hesaplanmasının zorluğu ve kimi zararların telafisinin mümkün olmadığı gibi sorunları ihmal ettikleri gerekçesiyle eleştirilmişlerdir. Bu çalışmada düzeltici adalet yaklaşımlarının kolonyalizmden doğan zararlara yönelik ileri sürdükleri telafi yöntemleri ve formlarının öne sürülen eleştirilerle birlikte tartışılması amaçlanmaktadır.
Physical Literacy - A Journey of Individual Enrichment: An Ecological Dynamics Rationale for Enhancing Performance and Physical Activity in All
Authors: Rudd James R. , Pesce Caterina , Strafford Ben William , Davids Keith
Published: July 2020

Internationally, governments, health and exercise practitioners are struggling with the threat posed by physical inactivity leading to worsening outcomes in health and life expectancy and the associated high economic costs. To meet this challenge it is important to enhance the quality, and quantity, of participation in sports and physical activity throughout the life course to sustain healthy and active lifestyles. This paper supports the need to develop a physically literate population, who meaningfully engage in play and physical activity through the development of functional movement skills in enriched environments. This is a shift away from reductionist approaches to physical activity engagement and maintenance to an ecological dynamics approach that focuses on enrichment to support functional movement skill learning and development. This is an embedded approach to physical literacy that allows learners the space and time to “explore–discover” (ecological psychology) within environments that will lead to a concomitant self-organization of highly intricate network of co-dependent sub-systems (anatomical, respiratory, circulatory, nervous, and perceptual-cognitive) resulting in functional movement solutions for the performance task and enduring positive adaptations to subsystems supporting the physical literacy journey across the life course. “Explore-discover adapt” is at the heart of two contemporary learner-centered pedagogies: Non-linear Pedagogy (NLP) and the Athletic Skills Model (ASM). Both emphasize the importance of enrichment experiences from an early age, and throughout life course, and both appreciate the inherent complexity involved in the learning process and the importance of designing a rich and varied range of athletic, participatory experiences that will support the embedded development of physical literacy leading to ongoing physical activity for all. The final part of this paper will demonstrate the potential of an ecological dynamics approach for supporting the concept of physical literacy by providing a roadmap for a reliable and valid measurement of physical literacy when considered from both an ecological dynamics perspective and the phenomenology understanding of physical literacy.
Improving the Actuation Speed and Multi-Cyclic Actuation Characteristics of Silicone/Ethanol Soft Actuators

The actuation of silicone/ethanol soft composite material-actuators is based on the phase change of ethanol upon heating, followed by the expansion of the whole composite, exhibiting high actuation stress and strain. However, the low thermal conductivity of silicone rubber hinders uniform heating throughout the material, creating overheated damaged areas in the silicone matrix and accelerating ethanol evaporation. This limits the actuation speed and the total number of operation cycles of these thermally-driven soft actuators. In this paper, we showed that adding 8 wt.% of diamond nanoparticle-based thermally conductive filler increases the thermal conductivity (from 0.190 W/mK to 0.212 W/mK), actuation speed and amount of operation cycles of silicone/ethanol actuators, while not affecting the mechanical properties. We performed multi-cyclic actuation tests and showed that the faster and longer operation of 8 wt.% filler material-actuators allows collecting enough reliable data for computational methods to model further actuation behavior. We successfully implemented a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network model to predict the actuation force exerted in a uniform multi-cyclic actuation experiment. This work paves the way for a broader implementation of soft thermally-driven actuators in various robotic applications.
