Background. The current state of exploration and development of oil and gas fields in the Caspian Sea is considered.

   Aim. Identification of new engineering and technological features of exploration and development of oil and gas fields in the Caspian Sea.

   Materials and methods. An analysis and typification of mining and geological conditions and parameters of oil and gas deposits, as well as traps and reservoirs, was carried out. The current state of oil and gas exploration and development in the Caspian Sea was assessed by statistical generalization and systematization of data and materials, partially borrowed from reference literature, stock sources, field data, and published works.

   Results. The conducted analysis revealed the main engineering and technological features of the current state of exploration and development of oil and gas fields in the Caspian Sea. These include the creation of special hydraulic structures and floating technical equipment, taking harsh marine hydrometeorological conditions for drilling prospecting, exploration and production wells into account; drilling directional clusters of wells from individual stationary platforms, pier platforms, artificially created islands, jack-up-type and semi-submersible floating installations and other structures both above and below water; selection of a rational design and number of stationary platforms, pier platforms, floating production decks, and other structures for placing the optimum number of wells; creation of special engineering means and technological processes, as well as floating installations that ensure the protection of the marine environment during drilling operations, borehole operation and repair. The need for platforms in the Caspian Sea as a whole in the period until 2025 is estimated at 71–87 units.

Authors: Eremenko R. U. , Ignatov P. A. , Illarionov P. N.
Published: November 2024

Background. The study examines the petrochemical characteristics of clayey deposits from the Dyakhtar Formation in the Nakyn Kimberlite Field, which contain material from redeposited weathering crusts of the Late Triassic to the Early Jurassic age. Currently, this Formation is considered the most promising for scandium mineralization compared to other areas in the Malo-Botuobinsky and Ygyattinsky diamond-bearing regions of Yakutia with the identified scandium concentrations.

   Aim. To establish the geochemical characteristics of scandium concentrations in the sediments of the Dyakhtar formation of the Nakyn kimberlite field.

   Materials and methods. Using petrochemical modules, 9022 X-ray fluorescence analyses of rocks of the Dyakhtar formation were analyzed, performed at the Vilyui Geological and Exploration Laboratory of ALROSA,

   Results. The recalculation of the petrochemical modules has revealed that the Dyakhtar Formation comprises the following components in different proportions: clayey rocks (42 %), clayey silicites (31 %), weak clayey silicites (15 %), hydrolyzate clayey rocks (9 %) with an admixture of silicites (4 %). The vast majority of samples with scandium concentrations exceeding 100 g/t were found in hydrolyzate clayey rocks (83 %), which contain products of mature weathering crusts. In addition, scandium-bearing rocks are characterized by formation under continental conditions, by normaliron content and lack of translocation, as well as a weak alkaline environment.

   Conclusion. The observed systematic changes in the correlation coefficients Sc/V, Sc/Ti, Sc/K, and Sc/Rb with increasing scandium concentrations suggest probable forms of scandium occurrence in vanadium-bearing titanomagnetite and its sorption in montmorillonite.

Authors: G V Kartheek  , Dr. D. Shobha Rani
Published: November 2024

Plant diseases severely affect agricultural productivity, necessitating accurate and rapid detection methods. This research presents a robust, multi-class plant disease classification framework using adaptive deep learning. We utilize pre-trained convolutional neural networks (CNNs), specifically Xception, InceptionResNetV2, InceptionV3, ResNet50, and the proposed EfficientNetB3-based Adaptive Augmented Deep Learning (EfficientNetB3-AADL) model. Our approach leverages transfer learning combined with extensive data augmentation and trimming techniques to enhance model performance and mitigate overfitting. The EfficientNetB3-AADL architecture incorporates convolutional and max pooling layers, regularization strategies, and a dense feature learning layer, optimized to classify 52 disease categories from a publicly available leaf image dataset. The model’s performance is extensively evaluated using metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score. Notably, EfficientNetB3-AADL achieves superior accuracy over 98%, outperforming other CNN models. The proposed methodology highlights the efficacy of compound scaling and adaptive data augmentation in ensuring robust and efficient disease classification, suitable for real-time agricultural applications. This advancement supports sustainable farming by offering a scalable, computationally efficient solution for early and accurate disease detection in diverse crop species.
Facilitating students' generation of suitable questions in ill-structured problem-solving contexts
Authors:   , Chia Choon Yee
Published: November 2024

Three challenges in classroom. Firstly, students asked few questions; secondly, these were unsophisticated and thirdly, problems presented to students were mainly well-structured. Most literature’s strategies which helped students generate questions in problem representation was based on well-structured problem solving. These were inadequate in ill-structured problems. Moreover, the existing classification of quality of questions based on cognitive level and complexity was inadequate in ill-structured problem context. The purpose of the study was to investigate the instructional strategies to help students generate suitable questions in ill-structured problem process especially when the problem exists but remains to be identified and a method of solving it was known or became known once the problem was formulated. Using case study design, the analysis found Disruptive Scaffolding Inquiry (DSI), a new instructional strategic framework, helped students generate Suitable Questions (SQ) in ill-structured problem solving. SQ is a new classification of quality of student generated questions based on functionality (knowledge-in-use). They are Anchoring and Delimiting Questions. DSI facilitates students to generate SQ through two unique but interrelated stages – problem representation and problem identification. In problem representation, disruptive scaffolding of defamiliarization and subversive questioning helped students to transform their statements description of problem into plausible questions. These plausible questions served as inputs into problem identification for verification. The iterations between the problem representation and problem identification continued until a satisfactory problem finding was reached when students were able to restate the problem; after deliberations on the ambiguous and conflicting assumptions; and information to conclude with the problem statement. Therefore, this study offers SQ as additional way to classify questions and DSI as a new strategic framework to facilitate students to problem find using self-generate questions for problem that exists but yet to be identified.

The aims of this study are twofold: first, to find out the implementation of the HIV/AIDS prevention policy in Rejang Lebong District, and second, to identify the factors that support or hinder the implementation of the policy in the same area. This study uses evaluation research methodology, adopts a descriptive qualitative approach, and describes the theoretical framework of Van Meter and Van Horn. The research participants consisted of the Head of the Rejang Lebong District Health Office, the Rejang Lebong District AIDS Commission (KPA), and community members who were selected using a purposive sampling technique. example. Data collection methods used include observation, interviews, and documentation. The study findings show that the implementation of the HIV/AIDS Response Policy in Rejang Lebong District has not been carried out comprehensively and satisfactorily. The magnitude of the policy is seen in its alignment with existing regulations, but the policy objectives have not been fully realized due to their impracticality at the individual level. Inadequate resources for policy implementation are associated with inadequate availability of human and financial resources. The successful implementation of policy implementation can be associated with the alignment of the characteristics of implementing agents and the attitudes or tendencies of implementers. Effective communication has been established between implementing organizations and PLHIV. However, communication with the general public has not been carried out thoroughly. Concerning the economic and social context, it appears that Rejang Lebong District has not effectively facilitated the implementation of HIV/AIDS prevention policies. This can be attributed to the stigmatization and discrimination of society, as well as the continued involvement of individuals in sex work. Rejang Lebong District faces challenges in implementing HIV/AIDS countermeasures policies, which mainly originate from a scarcity of human resources which has led to dual authority.

Penelitian ini mengkaji tentang ‘Rekrutmen Politik Perempuan Pada Pemilu Legislatif: Studi terhadap Perempuan Partai Demokrat Provinsi Jambi Tahun 2019’. Penelitian ini berangkat dari temuan bahwa Partai Demokrat Provinsi Jambi berhasil mendudukkan kader perempuannya sebagai anggota DPRD Provinsi Jambi di urutan teratas dibanding partai politik lainnya. Namun hal tersebut diduga karena memanfaatkan jejaring keluarga kandidat yang telah mapan secara aspek sosial, politik dan kapital. Penelitian ini dmenggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dengan mengkombinasikan kekuatan data primer dan sekunder. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa  rekrutment yang dilakukan Partai Demokrat adalah rekrutmen sistem terbuka. Akan tetapi, sistem rekrutmen Partai Demokrat Provinsi Jambi sangat inkonsistensi dengan ideologi dan platform partai yg mengusung gagasan nasionalis religious. Dalam rekrutmenm perempuan menjadi anggota partai, Demokrat mengalami kesulitan karena umumnya perempuan di jambi tidak ada ketertarikan dengan Parpol. Sehingga perempuan yang memiliki karir secara profesional bagus di pekerjaan mereka, cenderung tidak masuk Parpol. Hal ini menyebabkan Partai Demokrat mayoritas anggota perempuannya adalah pedagang kecil UMKM (wiraswasta). Untuk dicalonkan ke legislatif provinsi, cara yang dilakukan Demokrat adalah mencalonkan mereka yang memiliki jejaring keluarga yang sudah mengakar secara kapital yang besar dan modal sosial yang sudah mengakar. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan adanya 3 caleg perempuan Partai Demokrat yang terpilih di legislatif DPRD Provinsi, kesemuanya karena dinasi keluarga.

Authors: Bangun Tri Dewi Tunggal , Agustiningsih Rika Dwi , Husnaini Rovi
Published: November 2024

Third-year students at Vocational High School must meet many academic demands towards the end of their study period. These include fieldwork practices, report writing, attending sessions, taking tests, and preparing for exams and higher education. Such demands can affect their emotions and resilience, leading to a study being conducted to assess the impact of achievement emotions on their resilience. The research method employed in this study was quantitative, using a simple linear regression analysis technique. The research sample consisted of 183 third-grade students from SMK Muhammadiyah in Bandung, selected using a cluster random sampling technique. The study utilized two measuring tools: the achievement emotions scale and the resilience scale. The data collection method was a questionnaire, which was conducted both online and offline (paper-based). The results indicated that positive and negative emotions simultaneously influence the resilience of grade 3 vocational school students. Positive emotions play a significant positive role in increasing resilience, while negative emotions can reduce it. Educators and parents can focus on nurturing positive emotions in their students to create a positive learning environment. Cognitive restructuring may be the intervention strategy to change students' appraisal of learning situations so that they evoke enjoyment and relief and then eliminate boredom, making students more resilient.

Introduction. Writing foreign-language creative writing assignments is one of the goals of foreign language teaching in higher education. Modern AI tools (ChatGPT 4.0) are able to provide learners with evaluative feedback and recommendations for essay revision. However, the feedback quality from ChatGPT 4 and other AI tools is a subject of discussion in the teaching community. The aim of this paper is to compare the feedback quality provided by ChatGPT 4.0 and teachers in evaluating students' essays. Materials and methods. A bank of English essays (N=350) written by linguistics students (A2-B1 level) was used as the material. The participants of the research were 12 teachers of English at Derzhavin Tambov State University (Russian Federation). For every essay, one teacher and ChatGPT gave evaluative feedback on the following criteria: 1) content of the essay; 2) organisation and structure of the essay; 3) supporting ideas and arguments; 4) language of the essay (lexical aspect of speech, grammatical aspect of speech, syntax); and 5) originality of the idea. The recommendations received from the teacher and ChatGPT 4.0 were evaluated on the basis of norm-referenced testing. The data analysis was carried out using the Student’s t-test. Research results. It was found that ChatGPT matched the teacher in terms of the quality of evaluative feedback for the following criteria: ‘content of the paper’ (t=0.24; p>0.05), ‘organisation and structure’ (t=1; p>0.05), and ‘supporting ideas and arguments’ (t=1.43; p>0.05). Moreover, ChatGPT outperformed the teacher (not a native speaker) for the criteria ‘language of the essay’ (t=1.67; p≤0.05) and ‘originality of the essay’ (t=1.78; p≤0.05), which is explained by the fact that the GPT language model was developed based on large English textual data. This allowed the AI tool to be more accurate in assessing specifically the linguistic correctness of a written expression. Conclusion. The novelty of the study is in the confirmation of the ability of the AI tool ChatGPT 4.0 to provide qualitative feedback in assessing creative writing at the teacher's level or even better. The results of the study support more intensive implementation of ChatGPT 4.0 in the process of teaching foreign language and assessing the development level of students' writing skills.

STORAGE WASTE OF ASPARAGUS AS A VALUABLE SOURCE OF PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS
Authors: Прісс О. , Булгаков П.
Published: November 2024

Summary. Waste from the fruit and vegetable industry dominates on the food waste market. With a tendency of increasing consumers’ interest in healthy food and growing consumption of fruits and vegetables, according to forecasts of analysts, the share of this waste will constantly increase. Therefore, nowadays the search for effective solutions of fruit and vegetable waste use, e.g. to obtain biologically active compounds, is extremely timely. Amount of waste during processing and storage of asparagus can reach up to 50%. However, these disposed residuals are rich in polyphenolic compounds, which are characterized by high biological value and can provide additional income. This work provides evaluation of phenolic compounds’ content in the waste generated during commercial processing of asparagus, at the stages of preparation for storage and after storage. Two varieties of Asparagus were studied, namely, varieties Prius F1 and Rosalie F1. It was established that the amount of phenolic compounds in asparagus waste reaches 67.73-74.77 mg×100g-1FW depending on the variety. Despite the differences in color, the studied varieties of asparagus did not differ significantly in terms of polyphenolic compounds’ total content. In the asparagus waste, content of phenolic compounds was estimated to be only 20-27% lower than in whole spears. Significant differences in the amount of polyphenolic compounds in asparagus waste produced during commercial processing before and after storage were not recorded. Asparagus waste of both studied varieties Prius F1 and Rosalie F1 thus may become a valuable source for obtaining polyphenolic compounds of high biological activity.

Numerous agricultural sectors rely on chemical fertiliser to accelerate crop development, as demand continues to expand each year. Synthetic fertilisers may leak into groundwater, increasing its toxicity and resulting in water contamination. Alternatives such as washed rice water may be utilised to mitigate the environmental impact of chemicals. This research aims to assess the effects of washed rice water on the growth rate of Ipomoea aquatica. Three types of rice water were used in this study: washed white rice water, washed brown rice water, and washed sticky rice water. Two of the rice water served as the control and each was treated with distilled water and NPK fertiliser. Significant values were determined using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and post-hoc tests for multiple comparisons. Resultantly, washed white rice water demonstrated the most significant effect in increasing the growth of the plant height, length of root, number of leaves, circumference of the stem and suitability of soil pH. Alternative methods such as washed white rice water could be employed to reduce the cost of agricultural operations to protect the environment from further degradation.

Published: November 2024

У статті розглянуто феномен «воєнного натюрморту» як особливого піджанру мистецтва. Воєнний натюрморт – нова художня форма, що виникла у контексті війни, розпочатої 2022 року. Це не тільки візуальне зображення предметів, а й символічне втілення побуту, психологічного стану та світогляду військових під час війни. Проаналізовано історичні передумови виникнення цього явища, його естетичні та семантичні риси, а також вплив окопних реалій на творчу діяльність солдатів і художників. Особливу увагу приділено осмисленню воєнного натюрморту як форми мистецького свідчення про війну і засобу збереження пам’яті про буденність бойових дій. Воєнний натюрморт в розумінні нового воєнного контексту, покликаний перетворювати артефакти війни на документи епохи. Означена художня форма на разі є вираженням досвіду війни і способом збереження пам’яті про сучасні події через призму мистецтва.

Members of social groups often form social relationships, which are known to carry important fitness benefits. Kin selection predicts that these relationships should be prevalent between kin, yet there is increasing evidence that, in societies that feature a mixture of related and unrelated individuals, social bonds are also formed with non-kin. Nevertheless, quantitative research on non-kin social relationships remains rare, hampering our understanding of their nature and adaptive value. Here, we combined long-term social and pedigree data from semi-free-ranging adult female rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) to quantify the prevalence, stability, and extent to which kin availability predicts the formation of non-kin bonds in a mix-related society. We found that in line with kin selection theory and previous work on this population, there was a clear kin bias in the formation of social bonds. However, bonds with non-kin were still more common than those with kin. We also found that bonds between non-kin were less stable: they were shorter in duration and varied more in strength across years in comparison to bonds with kin. Finally, we found that individuals who had fewer kin group mates were more likely to form social bonds with non-kin. Together this suggests that kin bonds might provide individuals with stable and predictable benefits, whereas non-kin bonds might be formed more opportunistically, to access specific or volatile resources and to compensate for a lack of kin. Future efforts to quantify and characterise social bonds between non-kin in different societies will yield a better understanding of the proximate and ultimate causes of social bonds, including how they are formed and maintained and what functions they serve.
Digital Innovation Performance of Selected Returnee Employees Among Selected It Companies in Guangzhou Towards an Improved Organizational Culture
Authors: ZHUOJUN LIN
Published: November 2024

This study examined the digital innovation capabilities of returnee employees in selected IT companies in Guangzhou and their impact on organizational culture. A sample of 235 returnee employees from 25 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) was analyzed to evaluate digital innovation performance indicators, such as success rate, speed, quality, market influence, and internal efficiency improvement. The study also assessed the relationship between the employees' backgrounds and digital innovation performance on organizational culture. Findings indicated that most returnee employees were male, aged 36-40, and held college degrees. Digital innovation performance was rated highly effective, with differences significant based on age, education, and years of service in the current organization, but not gender or role. Excluding market influence, there was a positive relationship between digital innovation performance and organizational culture, with internal efficiency improvement having the strongest correlation. Recommendations were made to boost digital innovation and organizational culture through enhanced employee engagement, technology adoption, and continuous improvement.
Trading Volume Activity Surrounding Earnings Releases: Evidence from Indonesia
Authors: Nainggolan Rexon
Published: November 2024

The study investigates trading volume activities post-earnings announcement and their impact on abnormal returns. The objectives are to examine the changes in trading volume activities in response to earnings release and to measure the impact of the changes in trading volume activities on the cumulative average abnormal returns post-earning announcement. The study analyzes the trading volume response around the earnings announcement by comparing the ratio of trading volume activity (TVA) post-earnings announcements with the TVA during the estimation window. It reports an apparent increase in trading volume activity on day +2, indicating a slightly delayed reaction to the event's information. However, the findings indicate a significant relationship between cumulative abnormal returns and trading volume during the post-earning announcement abnormal return in a short period, following the semi-strong form of market efficiency. The study focuses on year-end announcements and does not evaluate interim announcements. The market response to interim data may vary and requires validation through an additional investigation. This implies that market traders should implement an effective trading strategy before the entire market reacts to the earnings announcement. Furthermore, the research findings underscore opportunities for policymakers to improve market infrastructure, hence augmenting the market's efficacy in conveying information pertaining to earnings releases.

Published: November 2024

This study aims to analyze the financial health of PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (PT Pelindo) after the merger with a liquidity and profitability assessment approach for the sake of the company's survival in global economic turmoil and increased digital services for consumers who use transportation services. The method used is secondary data in the form of audited financial statements (2021-2023). This research uses a descriptive quantitative approach by analyzing the company's liquidity, profitability, and efficiency. The analysis technique uses liquidity financial ratio analysis, including current, quick, and cash ratios. In contrast, profitability ratios include gross profit margin (GPM), net profit margin (NPM), return on assets (ROA), and return on equity (ROE) to describe the company's financial health condition. The results and discussion of the study indicate that the Indonesian port company (PT Pelindo), after the merger from 2021 to 2023 suggests that it needs to implement a liquidity strategy through financial restructuring with a focus on managing current assets and current liabilities, increasing cash efficiency, accelerating collections, and reviewing capital structure to ensure liquidity remains adequate and reduce liquidity risk, especially with the downward trend in cash ratio which can threaten the company's stability in the future. Improving the profitability of Indonesian port companies should focus on operational cost efficiency, including digitalization, process and preventive maintenance, and collaborating with strategic partners to increase revenue, diversify port services, and optimize asset usage to maintain long-term financial stability and minimize negative impacts and external fluctuations.

Published: November 2024

This study aims to assess whether the economies and enterprises in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) have an appropriate potential and how well they are prepared to attract investments in connection with the relocation of global flows in supply chains and growing internal demand in the CEE countries, also to indicate actions that will increase their chances to participate in the reconfiguration of supply chains in the coming years. Research shows that the CEE countries will have the potential to create an ecosystem aimed at enhancing their attractiveness as locations within the reconfigured supply chains, if they support business in the development of factors which are crucial from the perspective of investment: digital transformation of enterprises and the development of innovations, education adjusted to the competences needed in the future, preparation for action to implement the assumptions of the EU climate policy and sustainable development, and creating a framework for the development of circular supply chains, as well as the development of transport infrastructure, which is a prerequisite for the organisation of efficient and environmentally sustainable flows within the EU.

Published: November 2024

The objective of this research is to evaluate the quality of life in 11 Central and Eastern Europe an (CEE) countries by assessing housing affordability. To achieve this goal, the study presents the findings of a novel method for measuring the housing gap, which represents the proportion of households with incomes that are insufficient to purchase or rent a dwelling that meets their needs but are too high to qualify for public housing support. The analysis was conducted over the period of 2017–2022, focusing on the fundamental aspects of the sociogeographical structure of households in the housing gap. The results were compared with life quality indicators, as well as examined in the context of the housing policies implemented by the CEE governments. Based on these findings, the study formulated recommendations for evolving housing policies to reduce the housing gap and, consequently, to improve the quality of life in the CEE region.
