Authors: Chetverikov A. O.
Published: May 2019

This paper is the first in Russia comprehensive theoretical and practical study of one of the world’s largest international scientific installations of the “megasience” class — the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) — from the standpoint of legal science.

The author focuses on the unique legal status and legal nature of international scientific collaborations, with the help of which scientists from dozens of countries, including Russia, carry out research and make scientific discoveries on the LHC. The paper considers and analyzed the following: the history of development, general principles of the LHC and the European organization for nuclear research (CERN), under the auspices of which its construction was carried out; the principles of the structure and functioning of international scientific collaborations around the LHC; the legal nature of their constituent documents as acts of soft law; the ratio of soft and hard law mechanisms in the regulation of international scientific collaborations around the LHC.

The final section presents data and proposals on the use of the legal mechanisms studied in other countries and international organizations, including for the purpose of the construction of scientific installations of the “megasience” class under the auspices of the national scientific organizations of Russia and the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna (Moscow region).

In the concept of agrarian law, it is not something new anymore that the land is getting less and less while the human need for land increasingly day increases. This is what makes the government then make a policy in the construction of housing in the form of horizontally building homes to save land called flats. The development of the flats is expected to meet the needs of the community will be a place to live and can improve the quality of life of the community. but over time, in perkembangnnya development of flats is also not free from various problems. This article examines the legal certainty of the ownership status of apartment units, not only from the land ownership aspect in which the high rise is built, but also includes the initial publication of the master certificate issued on behalf of the developer for the first time. Developers as business actors in trust by the government to get the first certificate of a development of flats, this often affects the inhabitants of apartment units. Although each resident of a flats unit may own / hold property certificates of units from separate flats between joint and individual sections, sometimes ownership status with a title certificate also can not protect the inhabitants of various disputes. Therefore, to minimize the occurrence of disputes, legal certainty becomes important to protect the parties concerned so as not to harm each other. Legal protection in such cases can be done by means of preventive law protection and repressive law protection.

As one of the countries with the highest population density in the world, the opportunity to work in Indonesia is not directly proportional to its population density so that the number of unemployed is still relatively high. The development of technology has entered in business and it is seen as an alternative with its emergence of the online transportation service providers such as Go-Jek. In the case of partnership agreements used by partners with Go-Jek, partners as parties that have weak bargaining power while Go-Jek has strong bargaining power. From a legal standpoint, the main problem is the absence of legislation that clearly regulates online motorcycle taxis and partnership agreements between partners and Go-Jek. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the online motorcycle taxi, and the legal protection aspects against partners based on partnership agreements and legal remedies in the event of a dispute in the implementation of the partnership agreement. With doctrinal research, this article argues that the partnership agreement is an agreement on innominaat so that in its implementation it should not conflict with the laws and regulations on it. The results of the study indicate that online motorcycle taxis have not yet been regulated in Indonesian laws and regulations, the partnership agreement has not provided legal protection for partners and in the event of a dispute, there can be legal action in accordance with the partnership agreement clause.

This study discusses the legal protection against a notary who has good faith to make the contract of sale with  stock in this case of criminal money laundering. To this extent, the study examines the legal protection for notaries who are eligible to be victims from the money laundering cases caused by user services. This study uses normative legal research with statute, philosophical and historical  approaches. This study finds that legal protection for notaries referred to Articles 66 and 66A of the Notary Act is essentially tended to internal or administrative measures. Nevertheless, notaries have verschoningsrecht or the right to renegade, another instrument for legal protection in undertaking the Notary Act.  The legal protection concept for notaries with the determinate profession on the informant side has been determined limitedly under Article 17 paragraph 1 of the Money Laundering Act.

The Asbab al-Nuzul dalam Pandangan Ulama Klasik dan Kontemporer
Authors: Saputra Midih
Published: May 2019

Asba>b al-nuzu>l adalah salah satu instrumen untuk memahami al-Qur’an. Walaupun secara kuantitas ayat-ayat yang turun karena sebab tertentu tidak terlalu banyak, namun para sarjana muslim memberikan perhatian khusus terhadap ayat-ayat tersebut melalui pembahasan tentang sebab-sebab turunnya al-Qur’an. Namun demikian, keberadaan ilmu asba>b al-nuzu>l  tidak bisa menghindarkan dari konflik distansiasi. Distansiasi adalah jarak antara teks dan sipenafsir dalam menggali makna-makna al-Qur’an.

Ilmu asba>b al-nuzu>l merupakan salah satu piranti metodologis yang setidaknya dapat menunjang pada penafsiran suatu ayat al-Qur’an dan membantu mendapatkan horizon konteks yang mengiringi turunnya ayat tersebut. Di antara banyak tema dalam ulum al-Qur’an, asba>b al-nuzu>l membahas di luar teks.

Karena itu, perdebatan antara keumuman teks dan kekhususan sabab atau sebaliknya menjadi bagian yang menarik dari kajian asbab al-nuzul. Dua kaidah tersebut sangat penting dalam proses menggali dan membangun argumen yang berimplikasi pada status penetapan suatu hukum.

Meningkatkan Motivasi Belajar Siswa melalui Pendekatan Problem Based Learning (PBL) pada Pembelajaran Sejarah Kebudayaan Islam di Madrasah Aliyah Negeri 2 Mataram Nusa Tenggara Barat
Authors: Herlina Lenny
Published: May 2019

Sejarah Kebudayaan Islam (SKI) merupakan salah satu pelajaran yang diberikan sejak dini dari tingkat Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI) sampai Perguruan Tinggi (PT), khususnya Perguruan Tinggi Agama Islam (PTAI). Pada umumnya SKI dirasakan lebih sulit untuk dipahami daripada ilmu-ilmu lainnya. Salah satu penyebabnya adalah karena sejarah mempelajari sesuatu yang sudah terjadi dan tidak dialami oleh siswa, dan tidak adanya kesesuaian antara kemampuan siswa dengan cara penyajian materi. Nuansa kegiatan pembelajaran SKI yang dilaksanakan saat ini di madrasah lebih tampak guru mengajar dibandingkan siswa belajar. Pembelajaran SKI terkesan hanya bersifat hafalan dan normatif saja. Guru SKI dalam pembelajarannya dianggap membosankan siswa sehingga siswa bersikap tak acuh terhadap pelajaran dan berdampak pada kurang maksimalnya hasil belajar. Pendekatan pembelajaran dapat dikatakan sebagai salah satu faktor penentu keberhasilan, dalam pelaksanaannya metode diharapkan dapat menumbuhkan motivasi dan minat belajar siswa guna mencapai tujuan pembelajaran yang diharapkan. Untuk itu perlu diupayakan strategi dan metode yang dapat memotivasi siswa untuk menuntaskan materi dengan baik.

Dengan pendekatan kualitatif-deskriptif, artikel ini berupaya mendeskripsikan bagaimana interaksi masyarakat muslim kawasan wisata Senggigi dengan kegiatan pariwisata dan bagaimana aktifitas keagamaan masyarakat muslim yang tinggal di kawasan industri pariwisata tersebut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa interaksi masyarakat muslim kawasan wisata Senggigi dengan kegiatan pariwisata yang berlangsung di wilayah tempat tinggalnya secara umum berlangsung secara pasif. Hanya sebagaian dari mereka, khususnya para pekerja di pusat-pusat industri pariwisata yang secara  intens berinteraksi, khususnya dengan para wisatawan. Oleh karena itu pertukaran nilai-nilai budaya hanya berlangsung pada kelompok ini. Sedangkan masyarakat pada umumnya tetap berada dalam dunia mereka yang diliputi dengan keyakinan dan tradisi agama yang dianutnya. Keberadaan pariwisata yang meng-hadirkan orang dengan berbagai nilai dan budaya yang beragam tidak banyak menyentuh kehidupan keberagamaan mereka. Masyarakat muslim tetap melaksanakan aktivitas keagamaan mereka sebagaimana yang telah ditunaikannya selama ini.

Published: May 2019

In a depolarizing instrument, such as a broadband imaging spectrometer, the depolarizers are placed on the system for stabilization the optical signal. They are also used to reduce measurements offsets due to strong polarization dependence, which produce drastic deterioration of the signal to noise ratio. Dynamic depolarizer with a controllable degree of polarization is also required to study the effect of noise on quantum information. The article described a new instrument for characterization the variable depolarizer with features which make it different from a polarimetric system. The analysing system based on the simple structural design and has good stability for real-time measurement. A practical application of the described interferometer system for variable depolarizer characterization is also presented.

Published: May 2019

The addition of flaxseed and amaranth on the physicochemical, functional and microstructural changes of instant-extruded cereals was evaluated. Six different mixtures were made with additions of amaranth (30%–50%) and flaxseed (10% and 15%) using maize grits and minor additives as supplementary ingredients and then extruded in a twin-screw extruder. The extrudates evaluated, had insoluble and soluble fiber contents increased with the proportion of amaranth and flaxseed. The mixture 4 (higher flaxseed content) presented highest soluble fiber percentage (1.9%). Extruded cereals had the lowest viscosity (<99.5 cp) and highest hardness values (5.2 N) whereas the dietary fiber content was highest.  Fiber content increase, resulted in a higher water solubility index (WSI) (0.5) and decrease the water absorption index (WAI) (2.5). Amaranth and flaxseed incorporation increased crystallinity, resulting in a larger, and more compact laminar structure. Amaranth and flaxseed addition resulted in extruded cereals with acceptable physicochemical and functional properties.
Scaffolds with a High Surface Area-to-Volume Ratio and Cultured Under Fast Flow Perfusion Result in Optimal O2 Delivery to the Cells in Artificial Bone Tissues
Authors: Nguyen Thanh Danh , Kadri Olufemi E. , Sikavitsas Vassilios , Voronov Roman S.
Published: May 2019

Tissue engineering has the potential for repairing large bone defects, which impose a heavy financial burden on the public health. However, difficulties with O2 delivery to the cells residing in the interior of tissue engineering scaffolds make it challenging to grow artificial tissues of clinically-relevant sizes. This study uses image-based simulation in order to provide insight into how to better optimize the scaffold manufacturing parameters, and the culturing conditions, in order to resolve the O2 bottleneck. To do this, high resolution 3D X-ray images of two common scaffold types (salt leached foam and non-woven fiber mesh) are fed into a Lattice Boltzmann Method fluid dynamics and reactive Lagrangian Scalar Tracking mass transfer solvers. The obtained findings indicate that the scaffolds should have maximal surface area-to-solid volume ratios, for higher chances of the molecular collisions with the cells. Furthermore, the cell culture media should be flown through the scaffold pores as fast as practically possible (without detaching or killing the cells). Finally, we have provided a parametric sweep that maps how the molecular transport within the scaffolds is affected by variations in rates of O2 consumption by the cells. Ultimately, the results of this study are expected to benefit the computer-assisted design of tissue engineering scaffolds and culturing experiments.

Authors: Hsu Sheng-Der , Chen Cheng‑Jueng , Yu Jyh-Cherng , Hong Zhi-Jie
Published: May 2019

Breast cancer is an important disease that threatens the lives of women. The majority of breast screening health education is printed promotional material, which is ineffective in enhancing women’s knowledge on breast screening in Taiwan, and showed low breast cancer screening rate in women. This provided the impetus for us to carry out this study to understand the major barrier of women on breast cancer and screening procedures. This study used quasi-experimental design and purposive sampling. The study participants were 45–69 year-old women. Data collection was carried out before and after intervention. The health belief model was used as a research framework to examine changes in the study participants after multimedia health education intervention for detecting which factors most affect women's breast cancer screening behavior. Then we could make the policy for enhancing women's breast cancer screening in the future. Our study showed that after multimedia health education intervention, the scores of perceived susceptibility, perceived seriousness, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, cues to action, and self-efficacy in the experimental group were all significantly higher than the control group.

Nowadays, one of the biggest concern of human being is greenhouse gas emission, especially carbon dioxide emission in developed and under-developing countries. In this study, connectionist models including LSSVM (Least Square Support Vector Machine) and evolutionary methods are employed for predicting the amount of CO2 emission in six Latin American countries, i.e., Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Peru, Chile, Venezuela, and Uruguay. The studied region is modelled based on the available input data in terms of Million tons including oil (Million tons), gas (Million tons oil equivalent), coal (Million tons oil equivalent), $R_{ew}$ (Million tons oil equivalent), and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in terms of billion US dollars.} Moreover, the available patents in the fields of climate change mitigation in six Latin American countries namely Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Peru, Chile, Venezuela, and Uruguay has been reviewed and analyzed. The results show that except Venezuela, all other mentioned countries have invested in renewable energy R&D activities. Brazil and Argentina have the highest share of renewable energies which account for 60% and 72% respectively.

Huge amounts of chitin and chitosans can be found in the biosphere as important constituent of the exoskeleton of many organisms, as well as waste by worldwide seafood companies. Nowadays, politicians, environmentalists, and industrialists encouraged the use of these marine polysaccharides as renewable source, particularly when developed by alternative eco-friendly processes, especially in the production of regular cosmetics. The aim of this review is to outline the physicochemical and biological properties and the different bioextraction methods of chitin and chitosans sources, focusing on enzymatic deproteinization, bacteria fermentation, and enzymatic deacetylation methods. Thanks to their biodegradability, non-toxicity, biocompatibility, and bioactivity, the application of these marine polymers is widely used in the contemporary manufacturing of biomedical and pharmaceutical products. In the end, advanced cosmetic products based on chitin and chitosans are presented, analyzing different therapeutic aspects about skin, hair, nail, and oral care. The innovative formulations described can be considered as excellent solutions regarding problems in the various body anatomical sectors.
A Generalized and Mode-adaptive Approach to the Power Flow Analysis of the Isolated Hybrid AC/DC Microgrids

Published: May 2019

HybridAC/DC microgrids(HMG) are emerging as an attracting method for integrating the AC/DC distributed energy resources(DERs) with the features of high-performance and low-cost. In the isolated hybrid AC/DC microgrid (IHMG), the key problem is how to balance the power variation and regulate the voltage and frequency. Various energy storage systems (ESS)and interlinking converter (IC) technologies are viable for this application. The present study proposes a novel unified power flow model to evaluate and compare the abilities of the ESS with different connection topologies and ICs with different control approaches to maintain the voltage and frequency stability of the IHMG. In order to investigate the performance of the proposed scheme, five operation modes of the IHMG are defined and explained. The classification is based on the connection topologies and control modes of the ESS/IC in the IHMG. Then, a set of generic PF equations are derived. Moreover, three binary matrices are applied in the construction of the unified power equations. These matrices are used for describing the running state of the IHMG. Finally, in order to verify the proposed scheme, it is applied to several case studies of the IHMG. The operation characteristics of multi-DC subgrids IHMG in different modes, particularly when an external disturbance occurs, are investigated.
Outcome-Based Study on the Effectiveness of PSMB Apprenticeship Scheme under 10th Malaysian Plan
Authors: Shulgina Tatiana , Gopal Sagaran
Published: May 2019

In Malaysia, as in many parts of the world, vocational education and training (VET) is frequently perceived as the solution to improving the opportunities of youths who lack the resources, skills or motivation to continue with higher education. The focus of the study falls on the effectiveness of the apprenticeship scheme during the 10th Malaysia Plan. This study may provide an opportunity to find out how the related parties react towards the apprenticeship scheme. This is important, as feedbacks are central to the success or failure of any scheme. It is expected that the relevant government bodies, private sectors, trainers and trainees will have a valuable insight on the progress this far and what need to be done in the future based on the outcome of the research. This study follows snowballing sampling method and gathers the information from apprentices from variety of industrial sectors. The findings indicate effectiveness at some types of training but lacks comprehensiveness and efficient use of resources and future direction, especially during the 10th Malaysia plan period from 2011 to 2016. This exploratory research is a first chapter of the deeper study in this niche.

The results showed that the compound 1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-1-on can be synthesized from benzaldehyde and acetophenone using MAOS method. The obtained yield at varying catalyst concentrations of 10, 20, 30 and 40% were (50.58±1.84%, (69.20±1.58)%, (84.55±1.50)% and (90.60±0.96)%, respectively. The concentration of 40% NaOH catalyst produces the most optimal yield of synthesis products.

 
Theoretical Modification of Cyanidin as Sensitizers in Dye Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) Using Rhodanine Acetic Acid as Electron Withdrawing Group
Authors: Sudarlin Sudarlin
Published: May 2019

Modification of cyanidin as sensitiser on Dye Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) has been carried out theoretically in this study using rhodanine acetic acid. The rhodanine acetic acid as electron withdrawing group can increase the electron density of the LUMO state, so injection of the excited electron to the semiconductor can also be increase. The theoretical method used is DFT/B3LYP theory by NWChem software. The calculation shows that the LUMO energy of cyanidin rhodanine acetic is higher than cyanidin, so electron injection to the conduction band of the semiconductor is easier. This condition is supported by reduced of HOMO-LUMO energy gap, so the range of the sunlight that can be involved in the electron excitation process is wider. In addition, the LUMO electron density of the cyanidin rhodanine acetic is localized at rhodanine acetic which makes the distance of the excited electron is closer to the semiconductor, thereby facilitating electron injection.
