Diskresi Penyelesaian Kasus Tindak Pidana Pelaku Pencabulan Dengan Kekerasan Terhadap Orang Dewasa
Authors: Prabajati Fidelia , Santoso Topo
Published: October 2024

Criminal acts are often a topic in news media, social media and print media, as information about criminal acts or acts that sometimes disturb people's thinking, and the application of sanctions as regulated in the Criminal Code. Regarding case Number 100/Pid.Sus/2015/PN.Mrs, it is considered appropriate in the application of the article charged, but the fine is considered less effective because most perpetrators choose imprisonment instead of the fine. The author uses a normative qualitative method, with a case approach model based on the judge's decision in the court decision in case Number 833/Pid/B/2022/PN.JKT.Sel. with the result that imposing a sentence on the perpetrator of the crime of sexual immorality has sufficiently accommodated the perpetrator's behavior and is oriented towards justice for the victim because the sentence imposed by the judge is not too far from Article 82 paragraph (1) in conjunction with Article 76E of Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Amendments to Law Number 23 2002 concerning Child Protection not only that, fines are imposed on perpetrators, although in practice many replace it with imprisonment, it is considered sufficient to be able to compensate for the losses suffered by victims of criminal acts of sexual abuse.
Perlindungan Hak Upah Bagi Pekerja Dalam Lingkup Usaha Mikro Kecil Menengah

Published: October 2024

Wage protection for workers in the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector is a crucial element in creating social and economic balance in Indonesia. Although MSMEs significantly contribute to the economy by absorbing nearly 97% of the workforce, many workers still face inadequate wages. This issue stems from factors such as financial limitations and a lack of understanding of labor regulations. This study aims to analyze the mechanism of wage protection in MSMEs and the role of legal culture in preventing violations of workers' rights. Using a normative juridical approach, the study examines relevant legal documents, including Government Regulation Number 36 of 2021 on Wages. The main findings show that existing regulations have not fully ensured the fulfillment of workers' wage rights, particularly in regions with less effective oversight. Additionally, the legal culture among MSME business owners and workers influences the implementation of these regulations. The results highlight the importance of an integrated approach between the government, business owners, and workers to ensure effective wage protection and social justice.

Cultural diversity in each region in Indonesia has its own values ??that must be protected. One area that has a strong culture is the island of Bali. The richness and unique culture of the island of Bali is the foundation for establishing a cultural tourism concept that is based on and imbued with the Tri Hita Karana philosophy which originates from the cultural values ??and local wisdom of Sad Kerthi and is based on Balinese Taksu. The implementation of tourism based on Balinese culture must be quality oriented, so comprehensive planning is needed in accordance with the regional development vision of Bali and also oriented towards sustainability and competitiveness, which also requires tourism management standards based on Tri Hita Karana. Bali tourism is formed with a cultural tourism strategy, namely tourism that utilizes culture as its attraction. As we know, the tourist attraction of the island of Bali is its natural beauty in the form of mountains and beaches as well as various kinds of customs and culture which really attract the attention and curiosity of tourists. To develop a tourist area, cultural tourism has a big role, not only in Bali but in many regions in Indonesia, developing its culture as a tourist attraction, by utilizing the unique culture that is being developed into a tourist destination. However, the presence of tourism brings a new paradigm where culture, which was previously consumed by local people, is now being consumed by tourists. This is what is meant by “Cultural Commercialization” for tourism. Commercialization is presenting a culture such as traditional art that is not performed as is usually done in society, but is adapted to the time and purchasing power of tourists who witness it.
Quantum Locally Testable Code with Constant Soundness
Authors: Cross Andrew , He Zhiyang , Natarajan Anand , Szegedy Mario , Zhu Guanyu
Published: October 2024

In this paper, we present two constructions of quantum locally testable codes (QLTC) with constant soundness. In the first approach, we introduce an operation called check product, and show how this operation gives rise to QLTCs of constant soundness, constant rate, and distance scaling with locality. In the second approach, we consider hypergraph product of a quantum code and a classical repetition code, and observe a special case in which the soundness of component codes is preserved. This insight leads us to construct QLTCs of constant soundness, scalable rate and distance, and constant average locality. Our work marks a step towards constructing QLTCs of high soundness and distance, which would give a different construction to the No Low-Energy Trivial States (NLTS) theorem.
Empirical investigation of sustainability awareness in Saudi Arabian business
Authors: Al-Adeem Khalid , Brearey Chester H.
Published: October 2024

This study examines the extent to which the business sector is aware of sustainability and whether it values social and environmental responsibility. Sustainability and environmental and social responsibility reporting is not yet mandatory in Saudi Arabia. As part of this study, business sector representatives voluntarily agreed to answer questions in a web-based questionnaire designed to collect data on their perceptions and understanding of sustainability. Respondents strongly agreed that: 1) establishing a profit-oriented business is different from starting a charitable foundation; 2) systematic sustainability reporting adds value to a business when the interest is directed towards long-term goals and that a business cannot survive without sustainability practices; 3) business should not be separated from social and environmental issues.

Authors: Martinez Baquero Javier Eduardo , Jimenez Moreno Robinson
Published: October 2024

En el presente documento se muestra el diseño de un controlador difuso tipo II con el cual se realiza compensación de variaciones de peso en bandas transportadoras, controladas por un motor. Las variaciones de peso en el material se han establecido con una variabilidad de ±0.5 Kg. Para el ajuste de la velocidad de la banda se emplea la propiedad de variación del rango de cada función de pertenencia para que se acople a las variaciones de peso, donde el ajuste de la velocidad de la banda es el parámetro de retroalimentación del sistema. El sistema genera una compensación por variaciones de peso para que se mantenga regulada la velocidad de la banda, sin importar las variaciones de peso de cada unidad trasferida, logrando de esta manera el objetivo esperado. La respuesta del sistema retroalimentado, donde se incluyen variaciones de peso, muestra  que no varía la respuesta de control que es el efecto deseado ante los cambios.

Authors: Jaiswal Aparajita , Sapkota Muna
Published: October 2024

Across fields, college and university graduates are increasingly expected to perform effectively in diverse, multi-cultural work environments. Given this reality, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are actively designing strategies to help students develop intercultural skills. Prior research has revealed that deliberately structured study abroad programs are an effective approach to nurturing intercultural competence among graduates. Consciously designed study abroad programs can provide students with opportunities to learn and reflect on their experiences. In this study, we aim to understand the impact of a study abroad program on pre-freshmen students enrolled in a College of Technology. Using a mixed-methods design, we examined the intercultural learning gains and experiences of the participating students. The results of the study showed that studying abroad contributed significantly to the intercultural development of the students. Additionally, the study characterized the challenges faced by the students and the valuable insights they gained while interacting with people from different cultures. In summary, our findings confirmed that study abroad programs can serve as a gateway for students by equipping them with the practical skills and strategies needed to navigate the complexities of cross-cultural interactions.
Technical and Economic Efficiency of Using the Self-Compacting Concrete Mixtures in Monolithic Construction
Authors: Kastornykh L. I. , Gikalo M. A. , Kaklyugin A. V. , Korobkin A. P. , Badeev V. S.
Published: October 2024

Introduction. The technical effect attained during construction of the monolithic reinforced concrete structures made of self-compacting concrete mixtures, which results in the increase of the actual strength of concrete, can be put to use to reduce the cross section of the structures and to cut down the consumption of the reinforcement. The paper aims to assess the technical and economic efficiency of the monolithic reinforced concrete structures made of high-strength self-compacting concrete, with the use of the construction waste, in meeting the goals of green construction.

Materials and Methods. To assess the efficiency of the monolithic structure concreting options, the vibratory-compacting concrete mixture БСТ В25 П4 and the self-compacting mixture БСТ В40 РК1 were prepared using the Portland cement CEM0 42.5N. The crushed stone of fraction 5–10 mm was used as a coarse aggregate and natural sand and crushed sand from construction waste (concrete scrap) were used as a fine aggregate. To ensure the high fluidity of the mixtures, the additive Polyplast PK— a universal ester-based polycarboxylate superplasticizer was used. The calculation of the parameters of the reinforced concrete structures depending on the compressive strength of concrete was performed in the LIRA software package. The estimated cost of the works on construction of the reinforced concrete structures was determined for two alternative options that differed in the type of concrete mixture used, the method of its delivery to the place of concreting and in the method of compaction.

Results. The calculation of the parameters of the reinforced concrete structures has been carried out, which showed that for the structures made of high-strength B40 class concrete, the cross-section thickness can be uniform along the entire height — 200 mm, whereas the amount of concrete can be 20% less than for B25 class concrete. The calculation of reinforcing parameters along the structures’ height in correlation to the strength of concrete showed that when using the self-compacting B40 class concrete, it is possible to reduce the design diameter and to cut down the consumption of the reinforcement. The expected economic effect of using the self-compacting high-strength concrete, calculated for concreting the structures of the volume of 433 m3 , can be 1639.5 rubbles.

Discussion and Conclusion. The technical and economic efficiency of using the high-strength self-compacting concrete for concreting the monolithic reinforced concrete structures has been substantiated. As a result of using the self-compacting mixture and concrete pumping technology, the estimated cost of constructing the structures is reduced, the manpower inputs and labour costs are decreased, and, due to the use of the construction waste and refusal from utilising the electrical equipment for the vibratory compaction, the ecological effect is achieved.

Published: October 2024

Introduction. In design of a life-saving multi-storey building, a seismic isolation system in the form of the kinematic supports is used to ensure the seismic resistance and reduce the seismic loads. The structural system, the computational dynamic model and the results of the intermediate in-situ tests of a life-saving multi-storey building with a kinematic seismic isolation system being built in Grozny have been analysed in the article.

Materials and Methods. The research included modeling and computation of the structural system of a building with a kinematic seismic isolation system. In-situ tests were carried out to confirm the working capacity of the seismic isolation system connections.

Results. A multi-storey life-saving building was designed according to a frame-core wall structure, where the vertical load-bearing elements were core walls, columns and connections between the columns in the form of the stiffening diaphragms. The high-rise part of a building was designed using a kinematic seismic isolation system consisting of the seismic isolating concrete-filled steel tubular supports. The results of the calculations of the main and specific load combinations and internal forces in the load-bearing structures have been presented.

Discussion and Conclusion. The research has shown that the use of the developed structural system of seismic isolation with kinematic supports makes it possible to reduce the seismic loads and the total weight of a building and at the same time to increase its mechanical reliability and safety. The conducted intermediate in-situ tests have confirmed the working capacity of the joints connecting the supports with the monolithic reinforced concrete structures of a building, which makes it possible to implement the kinematic seismic isolation supports into the construction industry practices.

Authors: Mamonova M.V. , Sharoglazov G.V.
Published: October 2024

The results of first-principles calculations of the structural and surface characteristics of palladium and iridium using the VASP software package with the Meta-GGA SCAN functional are presented. The calculations of the lattice constant values for bulk metals Pd and Ir for various PBE and SCAN functionals showed the best convergence and agreement with the experimental values when using the SCAN functional. The values of the surface energy and the work function of an electron from the surface of a Pd and Ir plate with a thickness of 1 to 10 monolayers were calculated taking into account relaxation for various orientations of the surface face (100), (110), (111). Smaller error and better agreement with experimental values was obtained using the SCAN functionality, especially for palladium. The values obtained for different orientations of the surface face satisfy the relation: σ110 > σ100 > σ111. The most close-packed face has the lowest surface energy.

Published: October 2024

The effects of relaxation and reconstruction during the formation of an iron film on a silver surface were studied using the USPEX and VASP software packages. The results of calculations are presented for a surface system with a single Fe layer (4 atoms per layer) on an Ag substrate with a (100) surface facet orientation and a thickness of 4 monolayer, 3 of which were not involved in the reconstruction. The most stable structure was chosen, which was obtained by the evolutionary algorithm presented in the USPEX software package. For two types of calculations, the energy efficiency of the “sandwich” type structure was revealed. Calculations taking into account the influence of magnetization for two types of effects showed the advantage of ferromagnetic ordering.

A core group of Russian words with feminine meanings: dictionaries vs living speech of Russians vs perception of Chinese native speakers
Authors: Chen Chiao Wen , Sun Xiaoli
Published: October 2024

This work is devoted to the analysis of various aspects of the “life” of a small group of words with feminine meanings: in dictionaries, in living speech (everyday communication) of native Russian speakers, and in the perception of Chinese Russian learners. The material sources for the study were 69 corresponding lexemes extracted from two dictionaries - "Explanatory Dictionary of the Russian Language" by S.I. Ozhegov and N.Yu. Shvedova and "Dictionary of the Russian language" edited by A.P. Evgen'eva. In addition, the contexts of the corpus of Russian everyday speech "One Day of Speech" were involved in the analysis. The material of a specific analysis was 15 units from this list and 25 varieties of their meanings (semanthemes), which are included in all the lexical minimums for Russian as a foreign language. The analysis showed that there is a known inconsistency in the number of meanings of the language units in academic dictionaries and in the living speech of native speakers, which demonstrates the semantic change of many lexemes in the course of the continuous development of the language. All these 15 words and 25 semanthemes were tested in a linguistic survey of the Chinese who study Russian in Taiwan and have never been to Russia. Based on the average vocabulary of a foreign students, it can be assumed that students studying Russian for less than a year can reach the A2 level, from two to four years - B1, from five to seven years - B2, and more than 7 years - C1. Chinese often have difficulty distinguishing words with similar feminine meanings (e.g. devochka, devushka and dama). In addition, there is an absolute preponderance of kinship meaning in the mental vocabulary of native Chinese speakers. The obtained results are useful in many applied aspects: translation, linguodidactics, lexicographical practice.
coto de pesca
Authors: Ortega Federico Ezequiel
Published: October 2024

Las islas Georgias y Sandwich del Sur son poco analizadas en la bibliografía académica, pero forman parte integrante del esquema de poder británico en el Atlántico Sur y resultan fundamentales para su proyección antártica. 
En este artículo se busca demostrar, mediante el análisis de fuentes oficiales y de organismos transnacionales, estadísticas, artículos periodísticos y académicos, que Gran Bretaña tiene una política de apropiación del espacio y de los recursos de las islas subantárticas, con dos facetas. Una de ellas, de neto corte conservacionista, se basa en la creación y ampliación, de forma unilateral, de Áreas Marinas Protegidas en las islas Georgias y Sandwich del Sur, en búsqueda de legitimar la ocupación de estos espacios bajo una prédica de protección del medio ambiente oceánico.
La segunda faceta, a la par de la primera, se orienta a la ampliación, también unilateral, de la provisión de licencias de pesca, sobretodo a flotas de los Territorios Británicos de Ultramar, socios comerciales y de la Commonwealth, que le ha traído conflictos con aliados históricos como los Estados Unidos. Si bien la extracción de especies es cuantitativamente menor que en aguas adyacentes a Malvinas, esta práctica contribuye al sostén de la ocupación británica en la región.
Innovation management in the defense sector: A systematic literature review focusing on developing countries
Authors: Girardi Romullo
Published: October 2024

Innovation management is an organizational iterative process of seeking and selecting new opportunities and ideas, implementing them, and capturing value from the results obtained. In the defense sector, due to the increasing interdependence between military capabilities and technology, countries have adopted innovation management approaches to drive the modernization of their defense industrial bases, promoting the development and integration of advanced technologies. This study presents an original systematic literature review on innovation management approaches applied to defense in developing countries. After the phases of identification and screening, 62 documents both from academic and gray literature were analyzed and categorized into 22 distinct approaches. The advantages, disadvantages, contexts, and potential applications of each approach were discussed. The findings show that the appropriate use of these approaches can strengthen the innovation capacity and technological independence of late-industrializing countries, consolidating their position in the global defense landscape and ensuring their sovereignty and continuous technological progress.

Published: October 2024

Sustainable fishing ports play a vital role in ensuring the long-term health of marine ecosystems and supporting the livelihoods of coastal communities. This article explores the factors that contribute to the development of sustainable fishing ports, which consider environmental, social, and economic aspects in a balanced way. This research aims to develop a model of sustainable fishing port considering significant factors which influenced the sustainable fishing port, especially for fishing ports located in East Java Province, Indonesia. In this term, the sustainable fishing port is well known as an eco-fishing port. Purposive sampling was used to choose 215 participants from representatives of the government, private sectors in the fishing field, and fishing communities of six potential fishing ports in East Java Province, Indonesia. The data was analysed using a partial least square (PLS) approach with SmartPLS 3. The findings of the research indicate that eight hypotheses (H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H7, H8 and H11) are supported while three hypotheses (H6, H9, and H10) are not supported. The study reveals a significant correlation between market demand, community welfare, infrastructure, environmental carrying capacity, and regulation. It is also found that market demand, community welfare, infrastructure, environmental carrying capacity, and regulation have significant positive relations with eco-fishing ports. The positive relationship indicates that adherence to these regulations fosters responsible fishing methods, preventing overexploitation of fish stocks, and contributes to the conservation of marine environments, ensuring the port operates in harmony with natural ecosystems and local communities.
Does the karst spring improve fish abiotic habitat in mountain streams?
Authors: Rajwa-Kuligiewicz Agnieszka , Bojarczuk Anna
Published: October 2024

Mountain streams constitute challenging habitat for many fish species due to rapid and variable flow, cool temperature, and limited food resources. Groundwaters recharge by karst spring may however mitigate harsh habit conditions of mountain streams providing niches for different fish species. This study aims to assess the suitability of mountain streams, replenished by karst springs, for various fish species like alpine bullhead, European grayling, brown and brook trout. The study was conducted in the Chochołowski Stream in the Western Tatra Mountains, Poland. The assessment of abiotic habitat is based on different characteristics of hydrological and thermal regimes as well as water chemical composition investigated between 01.09.2012 and 31.09.2014. The findings reveal that: 1) downstream variability of habitat abiotic conditions (such as water temperature, flow, water chemical composition) may affect the distribution of fish species, 2) karst springs contribute up to 100% of the stream’s recharge during periods of winter low flow, 3) karstic groundwater reduces the variability and amplitudes of stream water temperature and weaken the periodicity in water temperature associated with daily course of air temperature and solar radiation, 4) groundwaters prevent stream freezing in winter and moderate summer temperatures, 5) increasing mineralisation of water below the spring recharge may positively affect fish distribution. The findings underscore the importance of karst springs in modifying the abiotic conditions of fish habitat in mountain streams.

Published: October 2024

Rotary shears are common part of the material processing lines (MPL). During the operation, these shears are loaded with impact cutting torque, which takes only short time but reaches values compared to motor-rated torque. Therefore, it is a technical challenge to ensure the speed stability during the cut. The presented paper deals with the analysis of the rotary shears’ operation and material cutting process from the control point of view and presents a cutting torque compensation possibility. Three types of speed controllers without and with cutting torque compensation are compared.

Strengthening the Human Rights Guarantee System in the Management of Migrant Policies in Brazil
Authors: Cardoso Priscila Carla , Correia Fábio Caires
Published: October 2024

Objective: This study aimed to conduct a bibliographic survey of scientific productions that deal with migration governance throughout the national territory.
 
Theoretical Framework: Supported by the theoretical and methodological assumptions of dialectical historical materialism, this article is part of the results of a post-doctoral internship that discusses the strengthening and defense of the rights of migrants in Brazil.
 
Method: As a procedure for collecting this data, a time frame of research from the last ten years (2014-2024) was used. For this purpose, a survey of scientific production in Brazilian postgraduate programs indexed in the BDTD (Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations) was carried out. The analysis, in turn, was based on the ten dimensions of migration governance, developed by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) adapted to the Brazilian context.
 
Results and Discussion: The results revealed that although there is an effort by municipalities and states to try to strengthen the guarantee of rights to migrants, there are still gaps and difficulties in ensuring them. There is fragmentation in the provision of services to migrants and difficulties for sectoral policies to carry out integrated and cross-cutting actions. Few studies discuss the institutional structure of migration governance, that is, the strategic organization of public policies in order to strengthen the guarantee of the rights of migrants.
 
Research Implications: The importance of this study lies in organizing and producing materials to support professionals who work to promote the human rights of migrants in the country.
 
Originality/Value: Considering that the management of migration and migrant policies is still under construction, this research contributes to thinking about ways to ensure the rights of migrants through effective migration governance.
