Published: August 2022

The grace of Christ needs to be on the agenda of preaching in the Gospels, especially in the Gospel of John. In the current pandemic atmosphere, heuristic reasoning can be grounded from the Gospel of John. The counselee needs clarity about himself and why he must entrust his life to the Lord Jesus. And the contribution of Christianity is to strive for them to grow in faith and become mature disciples of Christ in the future. The process of becoming a disciple of Christ of course by paying attention to the cognitive workings of the individual concerned. And it becomes an important part of Christian ministry so that the quality of the faith that is reached is visible and useful in his life. Heuristic reasoning can be one of the proposed models because Christ himself used this reasoning with many people, including His disciples.

Published: August 2022

This paper aims to investigate numerical study onto the behavior of modified push-off specimens under the action of direct shear stress. Based on the tow-dimensional finite element model developed in this research, the contribution of the aggregate interlock to resist the shear stress along the shear plane, the effect of existing of the compressive stress acting across the shear plane, the effect of the parallel reinforcement in resisting shear stress, the effect of the shear reinforcement parameter, the strains in the concrete and steel and the actual distribution of the shear stress along the shear plane were studied. To verify the accuracy and applicability of the suggested finite element model, a comparison between the results obtained in this study and those obtained experimentally by other authors was carried out. Comparison showed that the finite element results were in good agreement with the experimental results. It has been found that, for modified push-off specimens of groups without shear reinforcement across the shear plane the diagonal tension crack within the shear plane occurred at the load level which is closely to the ultimate shear strength respectively, while for specimens with both shear and parallel reinforcement , the first crack formed at about (33.7% - 53.0%) of the ultimate strength , also the investigation showed that the presenting of the shear reinforcement normal to the shear plane are significantly increased the shear transfer stress for all levels of loading.
Conspiracy theories and flying saucers
Authors: Alschuler Lawrence R.
Published: August 2022

How can we explain the recent enormous increase in the number of conspiracy theories and believers? Since the 1990s, two trends have moved in tandem: the rising number of conspiracy theories and the growing alarm over global warming. Is there some connection between these two trends? Looking to the 1950s, according to C. G. Jung, there was a connection between the number of sightings of flying saucers and the threat of nuclear war. His analysis serves as a template for our study of conspiracy theories, relying on the psychological processes of repression, projection, compensation, and dissociation. This article begins with a review of Jung’s study and then applies his approach to understand the current explosion of conspiracy theories.

전 세계적인 전염병의 확산으로 인해 재택근무가 유행한 가운데, 선행연구들은 재택근무의 효과에 대해 혼재된 양상을 보였다. 본 연구는 재택근무와 일-가정 갈등 간 관계를 변화시키는 요인으로 업무 주변 경계에서의 침투성 및 유연성을 살펴보는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 연구 1에서는 척도의 타당도 확인을 목적으로 Clark(2002)의 일-가정 경계 특성의 침투성 및 유연성 척도를 한국어로 번안한 뒤 역번역 과정과 문항일치도 검사를 시행했다. 만 19세 이상의 직업인 219명을 대상으로 탐색적 요인분석을 실시한 결과, 업무 및 가정 주변에서의 침투성과 유연성은 독립적인 요인구조로 나타났다. 또한, 침투성 및 유연성과 이론적으로 관련이 있는 예측변수 및 결과변수 간의 관계를 확인하여 규범적 연계망을 조사하였다. 연구 2에서는 연구 1의 척도 중 업무 주변 경계 특성을 활용하여 만 19세 이상의 재택근무자 250명을 대상으로 재택근무와 일-가정 갈등 간 관계에서 침투성과 유연성의 조절효과를 살펴보았다. 그 결과, 유연성이 재택근무와 가정을 방해하는 일 사이의 관계를 조절하지는 않았으나, 재택근무와 일을 방해하는 가정 사이의 관계는 유의하게 조절하였다. 구체적으로, 유연성이 높을 때는 재택근무와 일을 방해하는 가정 간 관계가 유의하지 않았으나, 유연성이 낮을 때는 유의한 정적 관계를 보였다. 이러한 결과는 재택근무의 활용이 지속될 가능성이 높은 포스트 코로나 시대에서 일-가정 갈등의 완화를 위해서는 조직이 구성원을 위해 업무 주변 경계에서의 유연성을 추가로 제공해야 함을 시사한다.
The Empirical Research on Professional Isolation During Remote Work in Context of COVID-19 and Organizational Citizenship Behavior:
Authors: Noh EunKyung , Lee Ki-Hak
Published: August 2022

While much has been studied about the positive and negative effects of discretionary remote work as an alternative work arrangement, little has been written about in the context of mandated remote work. The COVID-19 pandemic forced many organizations to impose remote work as a new mode of working arrangements. This abrupt change yielded positive and negative physical, social, and psychological outcomes. Drawing from the job demand and resource model and self-determination theory, this study examines the effects of professional isolation on organizational citizenship behavior, proposing the sequential mediation of psychological empowerment and affective organizational commitment as intrinsic motivators. An online survey was conducted. A total of 162 full-time remote workers (56 male (34.6%), 106 female (65.4%)) in Korea were analyzed. This study revealed that psychological empowerment and affective commitment fully mediate the relationship between professional isolation and organizational citizenship behavior. Contrary to expectation, however, the relationship between professional isolation and organization was found to be nonsignificant. Implications for practice, theory, and future research are discussed.

Published: August 2022

We worked in areas of mesophilic mountain forest in the states of Puebla, Hidalgo and Veracruz, located within the Huasteca region. By its nature, the mountain mesophyll forest is a good water catcher. But its forest cover has decreased as a consequence of anthropogenic activities, negatively impacting water catchment. The temporal evolution (1979–2015) of the humidity index of the areas where mountain mesophyll forest exists was associated with the changes in its cover from 1997 to 2016. The results show that from 1979 to 2004, the humidity index decreased as a consequence of more than 29% deforestation. From 2005 to 2016, the deforestation rate did not exceed 1% and the humidity index presented an increasing trend. The conservation of this ecosystem is recommended as a priority to improve the amount of water in the region.

Authors: He Wenjian , Wang Yuyang , Jiang Minxing
Published: August 2022

The reform of collective forest property rights is of great significance to realize the sustainable growth of China’s forest resources from the perspective of collective forest property right and its structure. This paper summarizes and analyzes the research on the reform of collective forest property right and the impact of forest property right security on the change of forest resources at home and abroad in recent 20 years. In order to clarify the research views and disputes on the impact of collective forest property right reform on forest resources, and analyze the defects and future research directions. Most of the existing studies believe that the reform of collective forest property rights can stimulate farmers’ afforestation management and protection, reduce deforestation and forest degradation, and effectively achieve the growth of forest resources. The existing literature provides valuable clues for further research on the relationship between the two, but the existing theoretical research fails to investigate the objective situation of China’s non-agricultural transfer, and ignores the interaction mechanism between forest rights; The empirical study lacks the analysis of the dynamic effects of collective forest property rights on forest resources, and fails to properly deal with the endogenous problems in the model. The future research should be improved from the following aspects: (1) bring the situation of labor non-agricultural transfer into the theoretical model, and investigate the interaction mechanism between forest rights; (2) scientifically identify the dynamic effects of property right and its structure on forest resources; (3) in econometric analysis, we should focus on the endogenous problems caused by measurement bias, missing variables, self-selection bias and two-way causality.

Authors: Zhang Feimin , Wang Chenghai , Xie Guohui , Kong Weizheng
Published: August 2022

Based on the multi-model ensemble average results of the CMIP5 program, we predict the changes of global terrestrial wind and solar energy resources from 2020 to 2030 under different future climate change scenarios. The results show that the multi-mode ensemble average results have high confidence in the simulation of global wind and solar energy resources. Under different climate scenarios (RCPs), the changes in global terrestrial wind and solar energy resources in the next 2020-2030 (relative to 1986-2005) will have significant regional differences. Among them, wind resources in the Americas, Africa and Australia increased, while European wind-rich areas decreased; those in Asia (e.g., Northwest China and Central Asia) increased in RCP2.6, but decreased in RCP4.5 and RCP8.5. Global terrestrial solar energy resources are increasing in different RCPs scenarios in the future, especially in European solar energy-rich areas. Wind energy and solar energy resources on the global land have obvious seasonal variation characteristics, and the seasonal variation rate varies greatly in different regions. The change trend and change range of wind energy and solar energy resources in different rich areas are different. There are some differences in the RCPs scenario. It shows the complexity of future changes in wind and solar energy resources in response to global climate change.

Authors: Wang Zeyu , Xu Jing , Wang Yanxi
Published: August 2022

Based on the connotation of the intensity of marine resources consumption, this paper measures the intensity of marine resources consumption in China’s coastal provinces from 1996 to 2015, reveals its spatio-temporal evolution characteristics, establishes a factor decomposition model by using the improved logarithmic mean Di exponential decomposition (LMDI), analyzes the factor contribution of changes in the intensity of marine resources consumption in China, and compares the differences. The results show that: (1) from 1996 to 2015, the overall consumption intensity of China’s marine resources increased first and then decreased steadily, and the consumption intensity of resources in the primary industry decreased steadily, ranking second. The resource consumption intensity of the tertiary industry is basically synchronized with the change trend of China’s marine resource consumption intensity; in the evolution of spatial pattern, the provinces with medium and high intensity of marine resource consumption gradually reduce, while the provinces with low intensity provinces gradually increase, and the regional differences gradually narrow. (2) The contribution rates of technological progress effect, industrial structure effect and regional scale effect to the decline of China’s marine resource consumption intensity are 78.224%, 18.334% and 3.442%, respectively; there are significant differences in factor decomposition effects among coastal provinces, among which Fujian is dominated by technological progress effect, Zhejiang, Shandong and Hainan are dominated by technological progress effect and regional scale effect, Tianjin, Hebei and Jiangsu are dominated by technological progress effect and industrial structure effect, while Liaoning, Shanghai, Guangdong and Guangxi are jointly driven by technological progress effect, industrial structure effect and regional scale effect to reduce the intensity of marine resource consumption. (3) From the perspective of the three marine industries, the effect of technological progress is the largest contribution within the secondary industry, accounting for 77.118% in total; the industrial structure effect has the largest contribution within the primary industry, accounting for 314.547% in total. There is no significant difference in regional scale effect among the three industries. Different provinces and regions should pay different attention to the implementation of technologies or measures for the intensive utilization of resources in the three marine industries.

Authors: Ramuhaheli Shumani , Veeredhi Vasudevarao , Enweremadu Christopher
Published: August 2022

In this study, a biodiesel blend was developed from the waste cooking oil methyl ester (WCOME) and soya bean oil methyl ester (SBME), namely, the optimum blend of WCOME-SBME (BM100) biodiesel. This biodiesel-biodiesel mixture (hybrid biodiesel) was in turn blended with 15 % of ethanol to give a biodiesel mixture-ethanol blend (BME15). The biodiesel-biodiesel mixture has a better density than the individual biodiesels, SBME had lower viscosity compared to BM100 and WCOME. The presence of ethanol in the hybrid biodiesel blend reduced both kinematic viscosity and the high density of the blend. BM100 also exhibited a better heating value compared to the individual biodiesels. Engine performance and emissions were tested using diesel (D100), WCOME, SBME, BM100, and BME15, and experimental results obtained compared with predicted using Diesel-RK software. The results indicated that at the maximum speed of 2500 rpm, BM100 performed better in terms of brake power (BP), brake thermal efficiency (BTE), brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), and brake mean effective pressure compared to the individual biodiesels (WCOME and SBME) but marginally poorer to D100. The BTE of BME15 is comparable to BM100. On the other hand, BME15 exhibited better emission characteristics having the lowest NO, particulate matter (PM), and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions compared to D100, WCOME, SBME, and BM100. Overall, when both engine performance and emission are considered BM100 increased engine performance compared to WCOME and SBME while BME15 is more effective in decreasing NO, PM, and HC emissions.

Published: August 2022

Sunlight is an energy source that is a gift from God and is a source of life for living things, including humans as caliphs on earth. Judging from its impact, solar radiation is an environmental parameter that has positive and negative effects on human life. The pattern of distribution of solar radiation is important information for human life to be the attention of many people, both policymakers and researchers in the field of environment. This study objects to modeling the radiation of solar using a dynamic neural network (DNN) model. The data used in this research is the meteorological data of Mataram City for the period January 2018 to May 2019, which was obtained from the Department of Environment and Forestry of West Nusa Tenggara Province. In the development of this model, solar radiation was seen as a function of a combination of several variables related to meteorological (wind speed, wind direction, humidity, air pressure, and air temperature) and solar radiation data at some previous time. Considering the advantages and effectiveness of the activation function in the proposed DNN model learning process, this study's network learning in the hidden layer employed two activation functions: hyperbolic tangent (Type I) and hyperbolic tangent sigmoid functions (Type II). The output aggregation used two aggregates for each type: the weighted aggregation function (Type a) and the maximum function (Type b). The results of computer simulations based on the root of mean square error (RMSE) measure indicate that the model for modeling solar radiation in these two cases is quite accurate. Furthermore, it could be seen that the model's performance using the hyperbolic tangent activation function (Type b) is relatively better than the hyperbolic tangent sigmoid type of the activation function (Type a), with the RMSE values are 18.3924 and 18.4005, respectively.

Moreover, working with the counterparty on deferred payment requires a thorough analysis of its financial position, as well as a number of non-quantitative parameters that may affect the activities of the subject in a constantly changing economic environment. Complex diagnostics by the credit insurer of all these factors is the basis for establishing the insurance credit limit, within which the insurer can grant trade loans.
The cost of equity of companies subject to sovereign risk
Authors: SALMANOV Oleg N.
Published: August 2022

Subject. The article considers the issue of establishing the cost of equity capital of companies, taking into account sovereign risk.
Objectives. The study aims at choosing a method to estimate the cost of equity subject to country risk and a method to determine the level of sovereign risk for domestic companies.
Methods. The analysis rests on two methods for determining the cost of equity given the sovereign risk, i.e. the Damodaran’s model and the hybrid CAPM model. The approaches under consideration differ in the choice of a developed market country, specifically, the United States (according to the S&P 500 Index) and Germany (according to the DAX Index), and in the choice of a method for calculating the share of country risk attributable to the company.
Results. Using the Damodaran’s model and the hybrid CAPM model, I established the cost of equity, determined the degree of country risk that falls on company, for 10 domestic companies. To estimate the cost of equity for 10 companies, I used the Damodaran’s model for companies and the hybrid CAPM model (which I adjusted).
Conclusions. The larger the scale of the company, the greater the degree of sovereign risk falls on it. Accordingly, the cost of equity increases, and company value decreases. The gamma index varies depending on the volatility of stock returns. This indicator better expresses company's exposure to country risk. Comparing the results with the choice of the U.S. or German base market shows that in both models, the cost of equity based on the US market will be higher, and, accordingly, the company value will be lower.
Specific financial and stock market ratios of the world's major public oil and gas corporations as an indicator of investment attractiveness of domestic vertically integrated oil and gas companies
Authors: SHIMKO Oleg V.
Published: August 2022

Subject. This article considers the specific financial and stock market indicators of the twenty five leading listed oil and gas companies within 2006 through 2018.
Objectives. The study aims to determine the current level of values of the specific financial and stock market indicators of the leading publicly traded oil and gas companies, as well as identify the key trends in the changes within the studied period and factors that have caused these changes.
Methods. For the study, I used comparative, and financial and economic analyses, and generalization of materials of the companies' consolidated financial statements.
Results. The article shows a tangible decline in most of the key specific indicators over the period under study, except for net revenue from core activities per barrel of production. The article finds that the long-term industry crisis impacts the group's performance greatly, and independent companies are suffering the most. It says that specific stock market coefficients are acceptable for assessing the possible value of the industry corporations, and the ratio of market capitalization to production is preferable. The article finds that domestic corporations are inferior to competitors in terms of specific stock market indicators, so the country specificity of the group coefficients is obvious.
Conclusions. The article concludes that a decrease in the specific profitability of hydrocarbon production in the industry's stock market segment affects the market attractiveness of the oil and gas sector negatively.

Virtual Density
Authors: Alaniz Uribe Francisco , Van der Heijden Bram
Published: August 2022

The process of densification in existing communities is complex and often encounters resistance. Public engagement is a crucial component to this process and requires appropriate visual and spatial communication tools. This pilot project explored the use of Virtual Reality (VR) as a spatial communication tool that uses CAD graphics with new visualization technology to provide the public with an immersive experience in a virtual environment. Using a pair of VR goggles and a digital 3D model, different scenarios were presented to members of the public to test their perception of various density models.
Three density scenarios were presented to the public, both in the form of traditional posters and using a headset and VR computer model. We found that the public were able to better understand the scenarios and were more accepting of densification when while visualizing the proposed density scenarios via the VR interface.
كتاب أصول العقائد البارزانية دراسة تحليلية نقدية
Authors: Maree Ismael Farsat
Published: August 2022

هذا البحث دراسة نقدية لكتاب السيد فريد أسسرد (أصول العقائد البارزانية)، حيث أكد فيه المؤلف أن البارزانيين أصحاب اتجاه باطني لهم تفسيرهم الخاص للإسلام، على غرار الفرق الباطنية الاخرى التي عمت التاريخ الاسلامي مثل: الاسماعيلية والنصيرية (= العلويون)، والدروز وغيرهم،  وبين أن هذا الاتجاه الباطني استند على ركيزتين أساسيتين وهما: الاسماعيلية والتصوف الغالي. ونقدي يتركز أولاً على قول الكاتب أسسرد نفسه، أنه يعترف بأن هناك فاصلاً زمنياً  طويلاً بين ظهور الفرقة الاسماعيلية وظهورالبارزانيين الذي يقارب أكثر من عشرة قرون. ومن جهة أخرى فإن أصول الاسرة البارزانية ترجع الى المذهب السني تحديداً، وأن العلامة ملا يحيى المزوري قد منح الاجازة العلمية الى الملا عبدالله البارزاني جد الاسرة البارزاني الحالية في العقد الثالث من القرن التاسع عشر؛ وهذا كافٍ للحكم على تهافت باطنية هذه الأسرة.

Menyikapi kondisi zaman dewasa ini, dimana banyak manusia seakan bersikap mengabaikan kebenaran, kemudian manusia sudah mulai menghalalkan segala cara untuk dapat mencapai tujuannya, inilah yang dinamakan zaman Kali Yuga dimana krisis etika dan moral sudah merajalela dimana-mana. Kebenaran telah dikalahkan dengan keangkuhan, kesombongan, dan keserakahan. Manusia telah meninggalkan budaya malu, hingga semua perbuatannya telah dianggap selalu benar. Apabila ditinjau lebih mendalam lagi, sebenarnya Dharma (kebaikan) tidak pernah berubah sejak zaman dahulu, sekarang, bahkan pada masa yang akan datang. Dharma akan ada sepanjang zaman, akan tetapi mempunyai karakteristik yang selalu menyesuaikan pada setiap zaman.

Melakukan latihan kerohanian (spiritual) untuk zaman Satya Yuga yang baik adalah dengan jalan melakukan latihan meditasi. Kemudian, pada zaman Treta Yuga latihan yang baik dilakukan adalah dengan melaksanakan Yadnya atau persembahan tulus ikhlas. Untuk zaman Dwapara Yuga, latihan yang tepat dilakukan adalah dengan jalan Yoga atau melaksanakan upacara pemujaan, dan pada zaman Kali Yuga, mengisi diri dengan pengetahuan dan berlandaskan pendidikan yang sempurna akan menjadikan manusia memiliki sumber daya yang kuat guna menghadapi tantangan dan kemajuan zaman.
