Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) wall is acomposite retaining structure construction made up of alternating layers of compacted backfill and soil reinforcing components. Surcharges on top of MSE wall is one of the factors that can lead to the failure of the MSE wall. In Senai City Airport, a MSE wall with high 9 m and length up to 400 m has been constructed. However, the effect of various surcharges of the MSE wall slope did not well investigate and was poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the effect of surcharge to the stress behaviour and the factor of safety of Mechanically Stabilized Earth Wall (MSE) wall using Finite Element Method (FEM). The study conducted using different loads in order to determine the stress behaviour and the safety factor of MSE wall using PLAXIS software. The geometry and parameters of sandy silt slope of Senai City Airport, Senai, Johor was taken from design consultant and previous soil investigation report, respectively. The soil parameters were used in this study are the unit weight of the soil, cohesion, Poisson Ratio, Young Modulus and the friction angle. This study gave the best result in order to determine the effect of surcharges to the behaviour of stress and safety factor of MSE wall. The highest total displacement was at 100 kN with total displacement 19.23m with 0.884 factor of safety. This study revealed the effect of various surcharges on the behaviour of stress and factor of safety of the MSE wall. The increase of surcharge increased the stress behind the wall and increased the factor of safety (FOS) when the loads was increased.

Electrical resistivity tomography is a non-destructive method of site investigation that involvesinjecting electricity into the sample and measuring subsurface resistance. This study looked at the effects of compaction on resistivity values as well as the relationship between different degrees of compaction. The material used in this experiment was laterite soil. The sample was tested into a standard proctor mould. The model has 10.20cm diameter and 11.6 cm for height of the mould. Each sample's resistivity was measured entirely compacted.The resistivity testing in this study were conducted using the Miller 400A. ASTM D 422 Standards were used, and for electrical resistivity testing, ASTM G57 is used. This research emphasises the impact of moisture content on resistivity value, as soil reduces resistivity value when the soil has higher moisture content which is 120 Ωm at 37%, and 190 Ωm at 25%. By comparing the results of different moisture content of soil samples under varied degrees of compaction, better resistivity interpretation tables may be generated.

Tank foundation is a base for the tank which is designed to support the weight of oil tank in order to ensure its stability. Failure of tank foundation usually occurred when the foundation system cannot support the weight of the tank or the soil bearing capacity of the area failed to resist the imposed stress from oil tank inclusive of foundation’s self-weight. Failure of tank foundation can lead to pivoting effect and cracking on the foundation slab. Hence, the right choice of foundation system with reference to the bearing capacity of foundation soil is important to ensure the stability of tank foundation. Thus, this study was carried out in order to determine the deformation characteristics of foundation slab of oil tank foundation on different soil conditions with the aim to determine optimum design of oil tank foundation. The dimensions and design of the models were based on a published case study. Series of analyses with finite element models were conducted using STAAD Foundation CONNECT Edition V9. The models were aimed to analyze the stability of foundation structure, and deformation characteristics of the foundation slabs on different soil conditions. Three types of foundation system (raft, pile raft and pile foundation) were modelled in STAAD Foundation CONNECT Edition V9. The findings showed that the most optimum design for foundation structure on stiff residual soil is raft foundation. Whereas pile raft foundation structure is the most appropriate to construct on unconsolidated marine sediment deposit while pile foundation structure is highly recommended on soft peaty soil.

Accurate determination of rock stress in great depths has become one of the most critical issues in civil and mining affairs along with the expansion of underground excavation spaces’ scale and deepening of under-excavation areas. The hydraulic fracturing method and coring-based laboratory methods including ASR, DSCA, and AE are main techniques in rock stress measurement in the earth’s depth. Thus far, previous studies have reported repeated samples from the values obtained from the above mentioned techniques. Nonetheless, the “Compact Conical Borehole Overcoring” (CCBO) technique is an example of the stress-relief method and this technique, is one of the most cost-effective and accurate methods for measuring the in-situ stresses simply by digging one borehole either in the tunnels’ wall or in the deep wells’ depth. The current study aims at analyzing the overcoring technique with the CCBO probe to identify errors regarding the number of sensors installed, as well as checking its ability to estimate mechanical parameters of mass rock in-situ. In this study, we have utilized the analytical method based on numerical simulations to determine the accuracy of the method’s dependence on the number of sensors installed on the probe. We performed numerical analysis using COMSOL finite element software, as well as MATLAB software. In addition, we attempted to propose possible relations for estimating mechanical parameters of mass rock using the probe, a method determined by the inventors.

Published: December 2022

Lankascincus dorsicatenatus is an endemic species of litter-skink distributed throughout the wet zone of Sri Lanka (elevations from 15 to 800 m a.s.l.). The recent resurrection of Lygosoma megalops by the recent description of its neotype designated by Batuwita (2019), presently lost, destabilized the taxonomic status of Lankascincus dorsicatenatus. Amarasinghe et al. (2022) synonymized Lygosoma megalops with Lankascincus fallax, and accepted Lankascincus dorsicatenatus as a valid taxon. Deraniyagala (1953) described Sphenomorphus dorsicatenatus based on a holotype and three paratypes. All the types are lost except one paratype at the National Museum of Sri Lanka, Colombo, Sri Lanka (NMSL), but it is in bad condition. Therefore, with a comparative discussion on the status of ‘Lankascincus megalops‘, here we designate a neotype for Lankascincus dorsicatenatus for clarification of the taxonomic status and stabilize the nomen. A discussion on the distribution and conservation of Lankascincus dorsicatenatus is also provided.

Authors: Lukanov Simeon
Published: December 2022

Amphibian migrations are mainly associated with seasonal movements between terrestrial and aquatic (breeding) habitats, but inter-pond migrations during the breeding season present a rarely observed and understudied phenomenon. In 2018 and 2019, a total of 501 individual newts (168 females and 333 males) from two ponds were captured using funnel traps, the ventral side of each newt was photographed and recaptures were identified using the image recognition software Hotspotter ver. 1.0. The distance between ponds was 200 m, with a slight downward slope from pond 1 to pond 2 and terrestrial vegetation consisting of shrubs, grassy patches and trees. All recorded inter-pond migrations were males (three and two individuals in 2018 and 2019, respectively). Between years, ten males were recorded to move between ponds, three of which were identical to individuals that also migrated between ponds within a single season. The observed behavior is discussed in terms of rarity, distance and time of migration.

Authors: ÇAKAR Ayşegül , HAN Ayhan
Published: December 2022

Anabolu, Mora Yarımadası’nın kuzey doğusunda bulunan bir liman kentidir. 1540’larda Venedik egemenliğinden Osmanlı Devleti’nin idaresine geçmiştir. 1686’da Venedik, kenti geri almışsa da yaklaşık otuz sene sonra Anabolu yeniden Osmanlı hâkimiyetine geçmiştir. 1715 Temmuz’unda gerçekleşen savaştan hemen sonra Anabolu’nun dini ve sivil yapıları ile ilgili ilk düzenlemeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Aynı sene içinde Osmanlı Devleti’nin klasik bir uygulaması olan tahrir yapılarak kentin konut stoku yapı temelinde kayıt altına alınmıştır. Bu çalışmada, 1715 tarihli tahrir kayıtları esas alınarak Anabolu sur içinin kent morfolojisi ve hane tipolojisi incelenmiştir. Mahallelerin sınırları, sokak dokusu, önemli kent ögeleri ve referans noktaları tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Ayrıca, Venedik’in ikinci hâkimiyet döneminde (1686-1715) Anabolu’da kent yapılarına müdahaleleri ve Osmanlı Devleti’nin 1715’teki kentteki ilk düzenlemeleri ortaya çıkarılmaya gayret edilmiştir. Kullanılan Osmanlı arşiv kaynaklarında Venedik devrine dair bilgi veren kayıtlar sınırlı olsa da bu kaynaklar, Venedik-Osmanlı hâkimiyetlerinde Anabolu’nun kent ögelerinin bazılarının sürekliliğinin olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Osmanlı arşiv kaynakları üzerine yapılan çalışma ile söz konusu sürekliliğin tarihi Anabolu kentinde dini yapıları, meydanları, sokak örgüsü gibi unsurlarla 1715’ten günümüze izlerini yansıttığı anlaşılmıştır. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın Anabolu ile ilgili yapılacak kent ve mimarlık tarihi çalışmalarına katkı sağlaması beklenmektedir.

Published: December 2022

In the age of information, the production of space includes two different but reciprocal layers, which are physical and digital. Although domination of one to the other always demonstrates change according to sociability, historicality, and spatiality, the general disposition is towards digital spaces. This study aims to demonstrate the transformation of spatiality in isolated days caused by COVID-19 pandemic disease that includes two steps which are transition from outside to inside and from real life to virtual life. For that purpose, after gathering broad information from the social media accounts of people, who are working from home during the quarantine, were traced. Then, archival surveys were held to find the trend hashtags and the correction of these hashtags was supported with the Google Trends graphs. The data obtained from observations and Google Trends results were evaluated within the framework of the production of space that changed with Manuel Castells' space of flows and space of places and, Paul Virilio's Speed in the media theories. The results show that the transition of society from outside to inside has several adaptation phases, and then the space of places is needed even at the highest level of involvement in the space of flows.

Authors: Alzahrani Saeed G
Published: December 2022

Background: The health-promoting school (HPS) is a WHO-sponsored framework. This national study aimed to explore the experiences and progress in implementing the HPS programme in Saudi Arabia (SA). Methods: A selfcompleted postal questionnaire was sent to all 42 school health departments across SA, and the response rate was 100%. Results: Forty respondents (95%) had implemented the HPS programme. Over 400 schools were involved in the HPS programme of which two-thirds were primary schools. The most common activities addressed were health education activities. Less frequently mentioned were healthy school policies, action on the social environment, and developing links with the community. Evaluation was only through internal processes. The main perceived strengths of the HPS were increasing the awareness of students and school staff and improving the school’s physical environment. The main weakness was the lack of legislation and financial support. For further development, the respondents reported the need for financial and human support. Conclusion: This study highlights the growth of the schools participating in the HPS programme. Further research is needed to develop and fully evaluate the effectiveness of the HPS framework in SA.
A cognitive computational approach to social and collective decision-making
Authors: Tump Alan Novaes , Deffner Dominik , Pleskac Timothy Joseph , Romanczuk Pawel , Kurvers Ralf
Published: December 2022

Collective dynamics play a key role in everyday decision-making. Whether social influence promotes the spread of accurate information and ultimately results in adaptive behavior or leads to false information cascades and maladaptive social contagion strongly depends on the cognitive mechanisms underlying social interactions. Here we argue that cognitive modeling, in tandem with experiments that allow collective dynamics to emerge, can mechanistically link cognitive processes at the individual and collective levels. We illustrate the strength of this cognitive computational approach with two highly successful cognitive models that have been applied to interactive group experiments: evidence accumulation and reinforcement learning models. We show how these approaches make it possible to simultaneously study (i) how individual cognition drives social systems, (ii) how social systems drive individual cognition, and (iii) the dynamic feedback processes between the two layers.

UPHOLDING MULTILATERALISM: INDONESIA’S FOREIGN POLICY IN RESPONDING TO COVID-19 PANDEMIC
Authors: Luerdi Luerdi , Setiawan Azhari
Published: December 2022

The 2019 Coronavirus disease or COVID-19 has apparently become a new global challenge. Not only didthe pandemic drive all actors to make response, but it also affected the relations among them. That Indonesia raised multilateralism in the unprecedented situation while more unilateral or populist actions taken by a number of states encouraged this research. This paper attempts to explain Indonesia’s foreign policy in upholding multilateralism to respond to the COVID-19 during the first year of the pandemic. Such response was intended to mitigate the impacts caused by the pandemic. This research applied holistic constructivism in understanding the determinants of Indonesia’s foreign policy by investigating both domestic and international cause. This research utilized the qualitative method with an explanatory analysis. The findings show that such Indonesia’s foreign policy was driven by its identity constructed by both indigenous norm of gotong royong and global norm of International Health Regulation. The norm-laden or identity-based foreign policy was leading it to uphold multilateralism which was considered appropriate in order to coordinate, collaborate and cooperate with international communities. In addition,Indonesia maintained its trust on and support to the the World Health Organization as the most leading actor inhealth governance championing fight against the pandemic. This paper argues that the norm factors do matter in Indonesia’s foreign policy in facing uncertainties in the vulnerable and interconnected world. Through the case studied, this paper suggests that looking at the domestic actor as well as the state in international system help provide a better understanding on the state behavior in international relations.

Tidak terkecuali pendidikan Sekolah Minggu menga- lami dampak. Penelitian ini bertujuan mencari kendala, solusi dan proyeksi ke depan atas kegiatan sekolah minggu yang ada di Gereja Baptis Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif. Hasil dari penelitian ini ditemukan sebagian besar gereja baptis telah menonaktifkan kegiatan Sekolah Minggu dikare- nakan belum siapnya gereja dalam memfasilitasi murid dalam pembelajaran online. Namun ditemukan beberapa gereja baptis yang berkomitmen tetap menyelengarakan kegiatan Sekolah minggu. Kendala yang dihadapi adalah kurangnya kemampuan guru, orang tua dan murid mengaplikasikan sarana teknologi serta penggunaan kuota internet yang tidak sedikit. Solusi adalah dengan meningkatkan kemampuan teknologi bagi guru dan orang tua. Proyeksi kedepan adalah dengan menguatkan kemampuan orang tua dalam pengetahuan Alkitab dan skill mengajar anak di rumah.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused a global health crisis with large behavioral effects and serious stress and social consequences. Particularly, teenagers suffered pandemic-related social restrictions including school closures. This study examined whether and how structural brain development was influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic and whether pandemic length was associated with accumulating or resilience effects of brain development. We investigated structural changes in social brain regions (medial prefrontal cortex: mPFC; temporoparietal junction: TPJ) as well as the stress-related hippocampus and amygdala, using a longitudinal design of 2 MRI waves. We selected two longitudinal age-matched subgroups (9-13 years old) of which one was tested before (n=114) and the other during (peri-pandemic group, n=204) the COVID-19 pandemic. Results indicated that teenagers in the peri-pandemic group showed accelerated development in the mPFC and hippocampus compared to the before-pandemic group. Furthermore, TPJ growth showed immediate effects followed by possibly subsequent recovery effects that returned to a typical developmental pattern. No pandemic effects were observed for the amygdala. These findings suggest that experiencing the COVID-19 pandemic measures had accelerated effects on hippocampus and mPFC development but the TPJ showed resilience to negative effects. Follow-up MRI assessments are needed to test acceleration and recovery effects over longer periods.

Published: December 2022

In this paper, 1 bit full adder is designed in Microwind and DSCH. It is analysed using different implementation methods like AOI logic and using transmission gates. It is converted into an equivalent RC model to make the model simpler but less accurate for calculations. However, accurate results are obtained and verified using DSCH, Verilog code and Mircrowind.
Paramedic (COVID-19 EDITION): A Handy Guide
Authors: Olawale Ridwan A
Published: December 2022

A paramedic is a registered healthcare professional who works autonomously across a range of health and care settings and may specialise in clinical practice, as well as in education, leadership, and research.The primary role of a paramedic is to stabilize people with life-threatening injuries and transport these patients to a higher level of care (typically an emergency department).Infectious disease has become a major concern, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. In response, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other agencies and organizations have issued guidance regarding workplace hazard controls for COVID-19. Some specific recommendations include modified call queries, symptom screening, universal PPE use, hand hygiene, physical distancing, and stringent disinfection protocols. Research on ambulance ventilation systems found that aerosols often recirculate throughout the compartment, creating a health hazard for paramedics when transporting sick patients capable of airborne transmission.Unidirectional airflow design can better protect workers
BIAYA PRODUKSI DAN PENERIMAAN

Biaya produksi menurut Soemarso (1996,295) : adalah biaya yang dibebankan dalam proses produksi selama suatu periode. Biaya ini terdiri dalam proses awal ditambah biaya pabrik. Termasuk dalam biaya-biaya yang dibebankan pada persediaan dalam proses akhir periode. Pengertian biaya produksi Menurut Mulyadi (1999,8) adalah pengorbanan sumber ekonomi, yang diukur dalam satuan uang, yang telah terjadi untuk tujuan tertentu. Sedangkan pengertian biaya produksi menurut Mas’ud Machfoedz (1989,109) : merupakan biaya yang dipakai untuk menilai persediaan yang dicantumkan dalam laporan keuangan dan jumlahnya relatif lebih besar daripada jenis biaya lain yang selalu terjadi berulang?ulang dalam pola yang sama secara rutin.
Aberrant sense of agency induced by a delayed prediction signal in schizophrenia: a computational modeling study

BackgroundAberrant sense of agency (SoA, a feeling of control over one’s own actions and their subsequent events) has been considered as key to understanding the pathology of schizophrenia. Behavioral studies demonstrated that both excessive and diminished SoAs were observed in schizophrenia. Several neurophysiological studies have suggested that such aberrant SoA may be due to temporal delays (TDs) in sensory-motor prediction signals. In the current study, we examined this hypothesis via a computational modeling approach using a recurrent neural network (RNN) model.MethodsThe sensory-motor prediction process in the behavioral task of SoA was modeled using an RNN model that can learn to reproduce the SoA task performance of human participants. The RNN model receives inputs of the states of visual, auditory, and proprioceptive senses, and generates forward predictions for those at the next time step and SoA judgement. In the simulation, the RNN models were trained using the actual behavioral data of 17 healthy controls completing an SoA task; then, our hypothesis was tested by adding TDs in the signals between context units of the RNN.ResultsThe RNN model successfully reproduced the behavioral features of the healthy controls. Moreover, bidirectional (i.e., excessive and diminished) schizophrenia-pattern SoA was reproduced with the TDs in context units. Three control experiments (random noise addition, TDs in outputs, and TDs in inputs) with quantitative analysis demonstrated no schizophrenia-pattern aberrant SoA. ConclusionsThe results theoretically support the proposed hypothesis that the aberrant SoA in schizophrenia may be due to TDs in sensory-motor prediction signals.
The role of play in language structure, acquisition, and evolution

Similarly to language, play is an essential component of human behavior and culture. However, the links between play and language have been underexamined and often neglected beyond the aesthetic uses of language as found in literature. But playing pervades language. Many aspects of language structure can be related to playing, in part because of the human proclivity for order, regularity and symmetry, but also because “playful” structures and playing with language can be expected to facilitate language acquisition, as well as other functions of language, particularly those related to social fitness. Evolutionary, in parallel with the increase of our playing behavior as a result of biological and cultural changes, play can be argued to have provided a scaffolding for the emergence of more complex linguistic structures, as found in modern languages, and more complex uses of language, as found in modern pragmatics. Future studies should address in more detail what makes human play special and, particularly, how this special playing behavior has informed language structure, use, acquisition, and evolution.
The Complexity of the Pursuit of Happiness is Associated with the Success of Well-Being Related Behaviors in Everyday Life

Published: December 2022

Can people choose to be happy? To date we have no definite answer to this very old question. In this paper, we introduced and tested a new theoretical model of the pursuit of happiness in which we integrated individual happiness definitions, happiness-related intentions, and happiness-enhancing activities. Further, we tested different characteristics of happiness-enhancing activities that have previously been discussed in the literature as potentially relevant for the successful pursuit of happiness: the breadth (i.e., how many different facets of happiness are positively affected by one single activity), variety (i.e., how many different happiness-enhancing activities people conduct in daily life), and frequency (i.e., overall number) of happiness-enhancing activities. The results of an experience sampling study (N = 473; 2,815 daily-level data points) support our preregistered hypotheses: Individual definitions of happiness were predictive of intentions and well-being related behaviors in everyday life. Further, the engagement in broader and a higher number of happiness-enhancing activities was associated with higher levels of daily well-being. The variety of happiness-enhancing activities, however, did not predict daily well-being. Overall, we demonstrated that defining and pursuing happiness in a multifaceted manner is related to higher levels of well-being.
