Published: December 2022

Shallots have been used for generations as traditional medicine, one of which is used in the treatment of diarrhea. This study determinedthe antidiarrheal activity of the shallot bulbs using intestinal protection and intestinal transit methods, and to determine the effective concentration that gives the best antidiarrheal effect in mice. This study used thirtymiceanddivided into six groups.The negativecontrol groupwas givenTween 80 (1%), positivecontrol group was given LoperamideHCl, and four various concentrations of shallot infusion treatment groups (1.25%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10 %). The treatment was given by the oral route. The parameters used in the intestinal protection method were frequency of defecation and fecesconsistency, while in intestinal transit method the parameters used were the percentage ratio of the marker trajectories compared to the overall length of the intestine. The results showed that the 1.25% concentration of shallot infusion indicatedthe best antidiarrheal activity and had a smaller ratio or stronger inhibition tointestinal peristalticcompared toall other concentrations, 2.5%, 5%, dan 10%. We concludedthat shallot bulbs infusion with a concentration of 1.25% has the most effective anti-diarrheal effect. This research can be continued by measurement of other diarrheal parameters such asstool weight, as well as start and stop time of diarrhea to further clarify the anti-diarrheal potential of shallot bulb infusion
Acute Toxicity Alterations in Oxidative Stress Enzymes and Biochemical Parameters in Oreochromis mossambicus, Induced by Cartap Hydrochloride and the Modulatory Effects of Ocimum sanctum Supplementation
Authors: Medda Sharmistha
Published: December 2022

The present study was assessed to determine the acute toxicity and the changes in oxidative stress enzymes and some other biochemical parameters at the sublethal level of a thiocarbamate pesticide cartap hydrochloride on freshwater fish Oreochromis mossambicus. The study reveals that the 96h median lethal concentration (LC50) value of cartap hydrochloride is 20.7 µg/l. Besides, the exposed fish also exhibited erratic behavioral responses at the acute level. The effects of cartap hydrochloride at the sublethal concentration (30% of 96h LC50 value) after 15d and 30d exposure induces alterations in biochemical parameters of freshwater fish Oreochromis mossambicus. Moreover, the modulatory effects of Ocimum sanctum powder (20 gm/kg feed) on the toxicity of cartap hydrochloride were investigated. The investigation demonstrated that sublethal concentrations of cartap hydrochloride increased the levels of liver catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione S-transferase (GST), malondialdehyde (MDA), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT). Additionally, the exposed fish treated with dietary Ocimum sanctum abridged the toxic effects of the pesticide. Moreover by using integrated biomarker response (IBR) and biomarker response index (BRI) the change in the health status of pesticide exposed fish upon addition of Ocimum sanctum supplemented diet over control diet was determined. These results indicate that cartap hydrochloride alters the survivability and behavioral responses of Oreochromis mossambicus at the acute level and changes the biochemical parameters at the sublethal level which was modulated by the additament of Ocimum sanctum.

Published: January 2023

During the first two decades of the 21st century, higher education has had an accentuated expansion in South America. To be able to handle this increase in demand, international organizations have encouraged the region’s countries to turn to distance education. Therefore, it is important to understand how this mode of education has been incorporated into higher education policies in different South American countries. The aim of this article is to compare the reality of four South American countries with respect to the level of participation in distance education in higher education, namely in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Colombia. Regarding the methodology, we analyzed official and research data about the latest evolution of distance education in higher education in the four countries studied. The analysis reveals that distance education has experienced a significant expansion in these countries since 2010, with the greatest increase occurring in Brazil. We concluded that, despite external factors in favor of distance education, internal environments in each country influence the manner and tempo with which this pressure is reflected in their respective higher education policies.

Published: December 2022

Water treatment sludge (WTS) still contains a lot of silica oxide (SiO2) as much as 43.12-66.90% by weight and can act as an adsorbent to be applied to the treatment of Sasirangan wastewater. Silica extraction from WTS was carried out by microwave-assisted leaching, which - compared to conventional extraction - had several advantages including high extraction yields, fast, uniform, and more selective processing time. In addition, Sasirangan liquid waste is a by-product of the dyeing process of Sasirangan cloth, which still contains heavy metals in amounts exceeding the quality standard. This study aims to extract silica from WTS by microwave-assisted leaching process to synthesize silica modified by chitosan (Si-Kit) as an adsorbent to reduce Pb(II) from Sasirangan wastewater, and to obtain a kinetic model of the adsorption process. The silica from microwave-assisted leaching process (Si-MaL) and Si-Kit adsorbents were characterized using FTIR and SEM. The results showed that the dominant functional groups of Si-Kit included Si-O-Si, Si-O-C stretching vibrations, and stretching vibration of C=N showing that the condensation between aldehyde groups and amino groups occurred to form base after the addition of glutaraldehyde. The SEM images showed that Si-MaL and Si-Kit adsorbent obviously increased in particle size with the presence of visible particles of homogeneous granules and large pores. The removal efficiency percentage of Pb(II) and color occurred at 6% w/v adsorbent weight and 70 min was 87.20% and 61.87% respectively. Meanwhile, the adsorption kinetics of Pb(II) and color followed the zero order kinetics model at weight variation of 6%-w/v based on the value of R2 close to one and the adsorption capacity of Pb(II) ion and color were 12.01 mg g-1 and 467 mg g-1, respectively.

Published: December 2022

Crop-livestock-forest systems are a sustainable production alternative based on the integration of several components and configurations that increase the complexity of management and soil-plant relationships. The aim of this study was to investigate the spatial distribution of many agronomic characteristics of maize intercropped with grass (Urochloa brizantha 'Xaraés') in an integrated crop-livestock and crop-livestock-forest system. To assess the yield components of maize intercropped with grass, 120 plant samples were collected in a normal 30 x 30 m grid at 120 positions. The GeoR software was used to perform for geostatistical and Kriging analyses. There were found spatial dependencies in ear insertion height, number of kernels per row, number of kernel rows per ear, ear length, and ear diameter. In the crop-livestock-forest systems, we detected geographical variation in corn plant characteristics, although with a weak spatial relationship. The observed wavy pattern illustrates the sensitivity of corn characteristics to the presence of eucalyptus trees. To increase maize yield components in crop-livestock-forest systems in the southwestern region of the Amazon, 42-meter-wide tree strips are suggested

Published: December 2022

The paper presents the results of The International Scientific Conference held at the Institute of Russian History of the Russian Academy of Sciences in May 2022 as part of celebrations of the 350th anniversary of the birth of Peter the Great. Over 120 specialists from Moscow, St. Petersburg, and other Russian cities, as well as scientists from Austria, Bulgaria, Tunisia, the USA, and France visited the conference. In follow-up, a collection of reports was published with the support of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research. The scientific program of the conference was distinguished due to its versatility, with wide coverage of topical issues on Peter the Great's reforms in various domains of the country's life: central and local government, foreign policy and military affairs, economics, education and culture. Special attention was paid to the history of the church, as well as the historical remembrance of Peter’s epoch. The conference showed that today’s studies of the epoch of Peter the Great tend to a wider range of research, with empirical material actively collected, and the depth and pace of reforms studied mainly in connection with changes in local government, court and law.
Prohibitive Constructions in the Business Language of the 18th Century
Authors: Rudnev Dmitry
Published: December 2022

The article describes and classifies the repertoire of prohibitive constructions in the Russian language of legislative documents of the 18th century, their use throughout the century. The study focuses on the collections of government documents of the 18th century. The described prohibitive constructions are analyzed in terms of their compatibility, semantics, and activity of use. The reasons for the changes that have taken place are investigated, the sources of new means of expressing prohibition are identified. It is concluded that the use of the means of expressing prohibition was closely related to the activity of obligation and permission expression models, in relation to which the models of prohibition turned out to be derivatives. The appearance of new obligation and permission expression models in the legal language or their disappearance from use influenced the fate of many prohibitive constructions. The greatest changes in the system of prohibitive means occurred during the reigns of Peter I and Catherine II, i.e. during the most intensive national reforms. The mo­dernization also affected the language of governance – business speech. New speech means were most widespread in new business genres (charters, regulations), reflecting the desire of the authorities to change the speech design of new text varieties. Yet, new speech means (in particular, prohibitive constructions) reflected changes in the pragmatics of business communication.

Short-term Distribution Network Reconfiguration Considering Fuses Characteristics for Uninterrupted Voltage Improvement
Authors: Ahmadi Esmail , Simab Mohsen , Bahmani-Firouzi Bahman
Published: December 2022

In this article, a short-term distribution network reconfiguration
problem is solved by considering the protection coordination as a
constraint to improve the voltage profile in peak load emergencies. The
prevailing view of this paper is that without focus on coordination of
the final network topology, it allows the protective devices to pick up
currents temporarily beyond their limits caused by switchings during a
temporary peak load. Using an evolutionary search method, this article
tries to solve the distribution network reconfiguration problem by
minimizing the voltage deviations, switching time and switching numbers.
It significantly considers distance-dependent time-lapses to satisfy the
constraint of time-current characteristics of the protective devices
during switchings. The proposed approach is investigated on a 16-bus
sample network coordinated by fuses with the satisfactory improvement of
the voltages with least interruption in comparison with reconfigurations
ignoring this protection constraint.
Accounting for Changes in Radiation Improves the Ability of SIF to Track Water Stress-Induced Losses in Summer GPP in a Temperate Deciduous Forest
Authors: Butterfield Zachary , Magney Troy Sehlin , Grossmann Katja , Bohrer Gil , Vogel Christoph S. , Barr Stephen , Keppel-Aleks Gretchen
Published: December 2022

As global observations of solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF)
have become available from multiple satellite platforms, SIF is
increasingly used as a proxy for photosynthetic activity and ecosystem
productivity. Because the relationship between SIF and gross primary
productivity (GPP) depends on a variety of factors including ecosystem
type and environmental conditions, it is necessary to study SIF
observations across various spatiotemporal scales and ecosystems. To
explore how SIF signals relate to productivity over a temperate
deciduous forest, we deployed a PhotoSpec spectrometer system at the
University of Michigan Biological Station AmeriFlux site (US-UMB) in the
northern Lower Peninsula of Michigan during the 2018 and 2019 growing
seasons. The PhotoSpec system consisted of two narrowband spectrometers,
for the retrieval of SIF in the red (680-686 nm) and far-red (745-758
nm) regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, and a broadband
spectrometer for the assessment of vegetation indices. We found that SIF
correlated with GPP across diurnal and seasonal cycles, but that SIF
irradiances were more strongly related to downwelling radiation than
GPP. However, while this dependence of SIF on radiation obscured drought
signals in SIF itself, we demonstrate that a SIF response to severe
drought was apparent as a decrease in relative SIF. These results
highlight the potential of SIF for detecting stress-induced losses in
forest productivity. Additionally, we found that the red:far-red SIF
ratio did not exhibit a response to drought stress, but was largely
driven by seasonal and interannual changes in canopy structure, as well
as by synoptic changes in downwelling radiation.
A generalized Townsend's theory for Paschen curves in planar, cylindrical, and spherical geometries in planetary atmospheres
Authors: Riousset Jeremy A , Harper Joshua Mendez , Dufek Josef , Nelson Jared P , Esparza Annelisa B
Published: December 2022

In this work, we focus on plasma discharges produced between two
electrodes with a high potential difference, resulting in the ionization
of the neutral particles supporting a current in the gaseous medium. At
low currents and low temperatures, this process can create luminescent
emissions: the glow and corona discharges. The parallel plate geometry
used in Townsend’s (1900) theory lets us develop a theoretical
formalism, with explicit solutions for the critical voltage effectively
reproducing experimental Paschen curves. However, most discharge
processes occur in non-parallel plate geometries, such as discharges
between grains or ice particles in multiphase flows. Here, we propose a
generalization of the classic parallel plate configurations to
concentric spherical and coaxial cylindrical geometries in Earth, Mars,
Titan, and Venus atmospheres. In a spherical case, a small radius
effectively represents a sharp tip rod, while larger, centimeter-scale
radii represent blunted tips. Similarly, in a cylindrical case, a small
radius corresponds to a thin wire. We solve continuity equations in the
gap and estimate a critical radius and minimum breakdown voltage that
allows ionization of neutral gas and formation of a glow discharge. We
show that glow coronæ form more easily in Mars’s low-pressure, CO2-rich
atmosphere than in Earth’s high-pressure atmosphere. Addition- ally, we
present breakdown criteria for Titan and Venus. We further demonstrate
that critical voltage minima occur at 0.5 cm·Torr for all three
investigated geometries, suggesting easier initiation around
millimeter-size particles in dust and water clouds and could be readily
extended to examine other multiphase flows with inertial particles.
Design for assembly approach for additive manufacturing products: a decision support system for large-size AM products
Authors: Shan Muhammad Umer , Hussain Salman
Published: December 2022

In a contemporary era, Additive Manufacturing (AM), 3D printing or rapid prototyping has evolved as a distinctive method when compared with the traditional manufacturing. By addressing the topic of Design for Additive Manufacturing (DFAM), it is observed that the basic principles of DFAM and Design for Assembly (DFA) are well established and usually applicable on small-size AM parts. To address this critical manufacturing decision, our research work presents a new decision support system (DSS) for a large-size AM part which is based on compiling the existing DFAM methodologies. Before presenting the new DSS, the previous DFAM approaches are reviewed and investigated the research trends in part decomposition (PD), part consolidation (PC), and topology optimization (TO). The literature is categorized into six distinctive categories and among them the first phase is the information phase. Following this information requisite step, the next phase is parameter assessment phase and so on. The new DSS starts with the clarification of the design goal while in previous approaches this step was usually done at the later stages. Similarly, the remaining steps are efficiently integrated into the framework structure. The developed system is also guiding the post-decomposition assembly process. The developed DSS is validated using the case study of a 6-axis robotic arm. Moreover, a comprehensive concept for using the developed DSS framework is also presented in the research work.
Conceptual Fundamentals of Land Management and Land Management in Ukraine During the Period of Globalization
Authors: Tretiak Anton , Tretiak Valentyna , Hunko Liudmyla
Published: January 2023

The application of institutional theory in the development of land management and land surveying to solve land problems in the period of globalization is due to the problems of human security and sustainable development. Institutional theory must justify the use and protection of land not only as a material but also as a public good. Four scientific positions were highlighted, which characterize the international institutionalization of land organization and land planning and related processes: 1) international institutionalization of land organization and land planning as a process of transition to international principles and standards of sustainable land management; 2) international institutionalization of land organization and land planning as a process of creating information on land ownership to ensure comparability of land statistics in the field of land resources and geospatial database and statistical reporting of different countries; 3) international institutionalization of land organization and land planning as a process of unification and harmonization of information systems for land accounting at the international level; 4) international standardization as a process of bringing national norms of territorial and spatial planning of land use development to international level while preserving essential national peculiarities. The relationship between the components of the process of globalization of land management and land surveying is characterized by the impact of globalization on the development of land management and land management. Implementation of institutions and institutes of land management and land surveying is carried out through coordination, redistribution, transactional and capitalization functions for the formation of sustainable (balanced) land use.

"NIHIL SINE DEO" IN FAR-RIGHT PROTESTS
Authors: Chiruta Ionut
Published: December 2022

This study investigates the far-right counter-hegemonic discourses employed in Romania during the Covid-19 vaccine roll-out and the promotion of green certificates. Using an array of traditional and occult symbols as well as religious iconography, the protests held by the Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR) employed ritualistic ceremonies and espoused counter-hegemonic discourses that confronted the authorities’ with the extreme religio-nationalist idea of “Romanianness”. Methodologically, this study combines digital ethnography of more than 30 protests in 2021-2022, with data collected from both social and conventional media as well as visual analysis of relevant discourses. The results show that the  iconography of analysed protests can be interpreted as new rituals of rebellion against the authorities’ decisions to restrict the movement of people. Likewise, AUR’s on-the-ground discourse conveyed new counter-hegemonic that rejected neo-liberal ideals. Moreover, the analysis reveals that the performance styles used during the demonstrations show striking similarities with the January 6th Insurrection in the United States.

The media contains a set of in-struments that are specifically built to empower students' critical thinking skills. Three aspects that are con-sidered in testing this educational application are application validity at each stage of system development, measurement of the final system feasibility test for user needs, and system implementation by running learning media on the test sample. Implementation of testing on application products is carried out accord-ing to system requirements and models. The existence of the characteristics of adaptive media and the diver-sity of menus in the application implies the importance of doing a lot of improvisation when carrying out tests, such as determining the right test cases, choosing the appropriate test model and method, determining a suitable test environment, and considering several other aspects aimed at optimizing test results. obtained in order to ensure the quality of learning media products. This study analyzed the test data using Likert scale as an interpretation of the results of the validation assessment from the experts by referring to certain perceived standards of assessment. Meanwhile, the analysis of the data from the feasibility test results from a sample of 20 students using the system usability scale (SUS) instrument. The technique to test the effec-tiveness was using a pretest-posttest control group design with a sample of 98 students. Parametric/non-parametric data analysis was then applied to analyze the data on the results of testing the effectiveness or efficacy of adaptive media products in improving students' higher order thinking skills (HOTS). Based on the testing steps applied to the application of adaptive learning media, the results obtained that the product was considered feasible and effective in empowering students' HOTS. The study concludes that the educa-tional application testing that has been carried out is able to provide an objective and independent view of the application of adaptive learning media which will be useful in operational functions to understand the level of effectiveness in its implementation before being widely used in learning.

Internships have an important role in the experience, application, and development of student's skills. The implementation of the internship has not been maximally achieved because students have not been given full assignments due to a lack of work skills, self-confidence, and work motivation. This study aims to reveal the effect of internship experience and work motivation on work readiness. Sampling used a random sampling technique and obtained a sample of 94 students of class XI automotive engineering at 5 vocational schools in Yogyakarta. The combination of factor analysis and regression analysis was used to analyze the data using second-order PLS-SEM analysis. The evaluation of the measurement model has met the requirements of the convergent validity test at the outer loading of ≥0.70 and AVE ≥0.50. The discriminant validity has met the requirements of the Fornell-Larcker test. Internal consistency reliability meets the requirements of CA, rho_A, and CR with a score of 0.70. Evaluation of the structural model shows the value of effect size (f2) with a large effect, the determination coefficient (R2) of the variable is 76.20%, and the predictive relevance (Q2) is 58.00%. Hypothesis testing is based on the β-coefficient, ρ-value, dan T-statistic values that have met the cut-off values suggested in the literature. So that all hypotheses Ha is accepted which indicate that there is a positive and significant effect on the internship experience and motivation on student work readiness. There needs to be better efforts to improve internship experience and work motivation so that guidance and supervision from supervising teachers must always be given so that work readiness is more optimal.

This study is aimed to look at the effect of credit sourced from the banking sector on the MSE’s income in each Regency/City of the Bali Province. This is important because the inclusive development index in Bali Province tends to increase, but the standard deviation for each Regency/City shows an increase until 2017. This condition indicates that development is still relatively unequal between Regencies/ City. By using the data from the Economic Survey 2016 from BPS and processed using the Propensity Score Matching (PSM) method, the results confirm that credit recipients have significantly higher incomes than those who do not receive. Theoretically, additional capital accumulation will encourage faster economic growth in relatively poor areas compared to richer areas, causing convergence in the two regions. The results of the analysis show that MSE actors in districts with lower growth get higher additional income, thus enabling equitable development in Bali.

This research aims to examine autocorrelation spatial analysis to see patterns of relationships or connections between locations (observations). In the study of the proportion of poverty in Mesuji District, it will provide important information in analyzing the poverty relationship between regions. Therefore, this research provides a spatial autocorrelation analysis in 2017. The methods used were the Moran's I test and the Local Indicator of Spatial Autocorrelation (LISA). The discussion shows a spatial relationship between the proportions of poor people between seven sub-districts in Mesuji Regency in 2017. In addition, the spatial distribution patterns will be clustered. Panca Jaya District has classified in one grouping of poverty called a low-low group. On the other hand, the high-low and low outlier categories were not found in the inter-district research area in Mesuji Regency. Finally, the regional development index variable has a negative and significant effect on the current population spacing without spatial concepts and concepts.

Women have an essential contribution to economic growth and development. However, according to data, the Gender Inequality Index (GII) is still relatively high in developing countries, so special attention should be paid to aspects of women’s empowerment, health, and participation in the labor market as an indicator in measuring GII. In women’s empowerment, women’s education and women’s literacy are thought to affect women’s labor force participation. This study aims to examine and analyze the effect of women’s literacy rates on female labor force participation in ASEAN countries from 2010- 2017. The method used to analyze the effect on the model is the static panel data method. The results show that countries with high female literacy rates also have high female labor participation rates. The results help economists and policymakers evaluate measures to optimize women’s labor market decisions and empower women by improving women’s literacy rates.

This study aims to determine the effect of tastes on local food consumption in an econometric analysis of the food demand structure in Papua Province. This study used the 2019 National Social and Economic Survey (SUSENAS) with 13.151 households conducted by Statistics Indonesia (BPS). The method used is Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System (QUAIDS) with Iterated Linear Least Square (ILLS) estimator. The results show that education, household size, location, age, the job of the head of the household, and income group affect local food consumption. When urbanization, education, and income increase, they tend to reduce local food consumption and shift food choices from local food because it is difficult to obtain. The influence of taste from the socio-demographic side has different taste factors between urban and rural. Therefore, the government needs to increase understanding through education about food diversity and good nutrition because local food has a higher nutritional content than rice or other foods. In addition, it is necessary to increase the horizontal diversification of local food, provision a market for local-food distribution, and increase income because the economic condition in Papua is still low, so they are vulnerable to food security.

Published: January 2023

In three-dimensional concurrent engineering context, product, process, and supply chain designs are approached by the imperative of concurrency principle. The imperative of concurrency proposes product architecture and supply chain architecture conducted simultaneously. The detailed product design and production process design are conducted simultaneously. While manufacturing system design is conducted simultaneously with logistic system design. This study concerns on integrating production planning with distribution planning in a new plastic bags plant. Since the plant is relatively new, the number of orders is still scarce. Therefore, production planning becomes critical. Producing more products than required creates inventories while producing as many as the order required creates an intermittent production schedule. A mathematical is developed to simultaneously schedule production and distribution to maximize profit. The model provides solutions on the number of materials to be delivered, the number of products produced and delivered within its period for the planning horizon.

Declarative knowledge is a belief system of translators which underlies the prac- tices of translating. It guides translators in decision-making process in an interlingual communication. Exploited simultaneously and effectively with operative knowl- edge it results in the production of a quality. In some cases, as evidenced in process- oriented studies, there is a gap between the two to the extent that what translators know and believe about translation does not match what they do in practices. Key  words:  Declarative  knowledge,  translation,  and  competence.
