A Case Study on Academic Writing Class for Foreign Students Using E-mail Genre Writing
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Ha Shin Young , Lee Hyekyung
Published: May 2023

Objectives The purposes of this study were to identify the genre conventions of request e-mails and to analyze the international students’ e-mails based on extra-text conventions and intra-text conventions.
Methods We designed a genre-based writing education model of e-mail and applied it to the class. Right after the class, the first task was given to the students to write an requesting e-mail and after 5 weeks, the second task was conducted on a similar topic in the midterm exam to analyze the results of the class.
Results Students made few errors in writing appropriate content following the formal structure of the request email. However, there were many sociolinguistic errors in the customary language forms used at each stage of structure. In particular, when performing the function of requesting, it was difficult to use specific sentence patterns and honorifics used to show politeness.
Conclusions Through email genre writing education, learners were able to recognize the importance of considering the purpose of email and the relationship with the recipient, and following sociolinguistic conventions and norms. In addition, it was found that it is effective to present grammatical items that are very closely related to the genre, not individually, but in connection with the genre.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Joung Sunyoung , Jeong Mi-ra
Published: May 2023

Objectives This study verified the effect of real-time online Havruta discussion on self-regulated learning ability by designing a program that is applied to Havruta by structuring sympathetic questions.
Methods 25 pre-service teachers in K University in Seoul were randomly selected for experiment. As for the self-regulation ability measurement tool, Il-Seon Choi and Yoon-Joo Cho (2010) adapted and modified it and used it after confirming the validity of the expert's content, and analyzed the sample through a pre- and post-test of the resident group. Differences in pre-post scores between experimental groups were analyzed by t-test. Subcomponents of self-regulated learning ability that were verified included implicit goal orientation, intrinsic value, metacognition, and cognitive strategy. The experiment consisted of a total of 12 sessions: two sessions of Habuta theory, one session of pre-test, eight sessions of experimental treatment, and one session of post-test. The empathic questioning consisted of perspective understanding questioning, imaginative questioning, interest questioning, and sympathetic questioning.
Results Real-time online Havruta discussions based on empathetic interrogation showed significant differences in self-efficacy, intrinsic goal orientation, intrinsic value, upper cognitive, and cognitive strategies, which are sub- elements of self-regulated learning ability.
Conclusions This study is meaningful in that it presented a specific strategy to conduct effective and in-depth discussions in a real-time online education environment and specific alternatives to improve self-regulated learning ability, which is significantly required in online learning environment.

Authors: Dodiya Dr. Mahesh , Parwe Shweta , Nisargandha Milind , Sawarkar Punam
Published: May 2023

In clinical practice, the number of Avascular Necrosis cases is increasing due to lifestyle changes, heavy workload, degenerative changes, and improper dietary habits. It is a progressive degenerative condition of the hip joint due to a lack of blood supply to the bone. Modern practice shows a significantly lower prognosis as per the studies. With the help of cardinal features of the AVN (Avascular Necrosis), it may correlate with Ashthi Majjagata Vikarain Ayurveda. Vata Vyadhi can treat at the clinical level with the help of AyurvedicShamana(palliative treatment) and ShodhanaChikitsa(Purification treatment). According to Ayurveda Acharyas, the Basti karma is the best line of treatment in Vata Vyadhi and is also called Ardha-Chikitsa. Ayurvedic Treatment gives long-term relief from the disease, helps to enhance the inner strength of the body tissues, and stops the progression. A 36-year-old male patient complained of Breaking Pain in the femur bone, Pain in the right hip joint, difficulty walking, and radiating Pain from the lumbar to thigh region. Associated with restricted movement of the right leg and disturbed sleep. He was treated with ShamanaAushadhis, followed by Abhyanga, Swedana, and Majjabasti with the combination of Majja(goat bone marrow) and GoKsheerfor12days. The patient was assessed withM.R.I. and grading of the symptoms; significant changes and improvements were observed in symptoms before and after the treatment. This study has been conducted to evaluate the efficacy of Majjabasti in managingAsthimajjagata Vatavikar based on Ayurvedic management. It shows that Majjabasti can be used in clinical practice for managing AVN, along with all precautionary measures described in Ayurveda classics in the form of PariharaVishayas during Bastikarma should be followed.
Interrelationships between Tourist Arrivals, Exchange Rate, Inflation, and Economic Growth: Empirical Evidence for Türkiye
Authors: Akarsu Gülsüm
Published: May 2023

Touristic activities have become essential for sustainable development associated with countries' prosperity and mobility opportunities. These activities may be affected by the exchange rate, economic growth, and general price movements, and these variables may also be affected by tourism activities. This study analyzes the relationships between tourist arrivals, economic growth, inflation, and exchange rate for Türkiye taking the country's geopolitical risk as exogenous, using monthly data over 2008-2020 and a Vector Error Correction modelling approach. The results indicate favorable short-run and long-run impacts of tourist arrivals on economic growth and confirm the validity of the tourism-led growth hypothesis for Türkiye. Toda Yamamoto causality tests show unidirectional causality from economic growth to inflation and exchange rate fluctuations and from the exchange rate to inflation. Therefore, results do not show evidence of tourism’s Dutch disease effect. Improving the quality of tourism-related services and marketing is vital for revenue increase and, thus, economic growth.
Genome comparison reveals that Halobacterium salinarum 63-R2 is the origin of the twin laboratory strains NRC-1 and R1
Authors: Pfeiffer Friedhelm , Dyall-Smith Mike
Published: May 2023

The genome of Halobacterium strain 63-R2 was recently reported and
provides the opportunity to resolve long-standing issues regarding the
source of two widely used model strains of Hbt. salinarum, NRC-1 and R1.
Strain 63-R2 was isolated in 1934 from a salted buffalo hide (epithet
‘cutirubra’), along with another strain from a salted cowhide (91-R6T,
epithet ‘salinaria’, the type strain of Halobacterium salinarum). Both
strains belong to the same species according to genome-based taxonomy
analysis (TYGS), with chromosome sequences showing 99.64% identity over
1.85 Mb. The chromosome of strain 63-R2 is 99.99% identical to the two
laboratory strains NRC-1 and R1, with only 5 indels, excluding the
mobilome. The two reported plasmids of strain 63-R2 share their
architecture with plasmids of strain R1 (pHcu43/pHS4, 99.89% identity;
pHcu235/pHS3, 100.0% identity). We detected and assembled additional
plasmids, using PacBio reads deposited at the SRA database, further
corroborating that strain differences are minimal. One plasmid, pHcu190
(190,816 bp) corresponds to pHS1 (strain R1) but is even more similar in
architecture to pNRC100 (strain NRC-1). Another plasmid, pHcu229,
assembled partially and completed in silico (229,124 bp), shares most of
its architecture with pHS2 (strain R1). In deviating regions, it
corresponds to pNRC200 (strain NRC-1). Further architectural differences
between the laboratory strain plasmids are not unique but are present in
strain 63-R2, which contains characteristics from both of them. Based on
these observations, it is proposed that the early 20th-century isolate
63-R2 is the immediate ancestor of the twin laboratory strains NRC-1 and
R1.
Synaptic plasticity and cognitive ability in experimental adult-onset hypothyroidism
Authors: Alkadhi Karim
Published: May 2023

Adult-onset hypothyroidism impairs normal brain function. Research on
animal models of hypothyroidism has revealed critical information on how
deficiency of thyroid hormones impacts the electrophysiological and
molecular functions of the brain, which lead to the well-known cognitive
impairment in untreated hypothyroid patients. Currently, such
information can only be obtained from experiments on animal models of
hypothyroidism. This review summarizes important research findings that
pertain to understanding the clinical cognitive consequences of
hypothyroidism.
Attention Mechanism Based Bidirectional LSTM Model for Broadband Power Amplifier Linearization
Authors: Su rina , Wang Jiacheng , Xu Gaoming , liu taijun
Published: May 2023

In this letter, a novel model for broadband power amplifier (PA)
linearization is proposed, namely Attention Mechanism based
Bidirectional Long Short-term Memory network (AM-BiLSTM). In order to
verify the linearization performance of the AM-BiLSTM model, a 100MHz
bandwidth 5G new radio (5G NR) signal is employed to test the sub-6G PA
operating at 2.6-GHz. The experimental results show that the adjacent
channel power ratio (ACPR) of the PA with AM-BiLSTM can be improved by
24dB which is 6-dB better than the generalized memory polynomial (GMP)
and 3-dB better than the Chebyshev polynomials LSTM (CP-LSTM) in
ref[1]. Therefore, the proposed AM-BiLSTM is very effective for the
linearization of broadband PA.
Constitutive immune function is not associated with fuel stores in spring migrating passerine birds
Authors: Ronanki Shivani , Hegemann Arne , eikenaar cas
Published: May 2023

Migratory birds may either upregulate their immune system during
migration as they might encounter novel pathogens or downregulate their
immune system as a consequence of trade-offs with the resource costs of
migration. Support for the latter comes not least from a study that
reports a positive correlation in autumn migrating birds between fuel
stores and parameters of innate and acquired immune function, i.e.,
energy exhausted migrants appear to have lowered immune function.
However, to our knowledge, no study has tested whether this pattern
exists in spring migrating birds, which may face other trade-offs than
autumn migrants. Here, we investigate if in spring there is a
relationship between fuel stores and microbial killing ability, a
measure of innate immune function, and total immunoglobulin (IgY), a
measure of acquired immune function, in four migrating bird species:
Chaffinches (Fringilla coelebs), Dunnocks (Prunella modularis), Song
thrushes (Turdus philomelos) and Northern wheatears (Oenanthe oenanthe).
We found no correlation between fuel stores and bacterial killing
ability or IgY levels in any of the species. However, there was a
significant negative correlation between microbial killing ability and
Julian date in Song thrushes and Northern wheatears, and between IgY
levels and Julian date in Song thrushes. Sex did not affect immune
function in any of the species. Our study suggests that the relationship
between immune function and fuel stores may be different during spring
migration compared to autumn migration. Differences in the speed of
migration or pathogen pressure may result in different outcomes of the
trade-off between investment in immune function and in migration among
the seasons.
Brain network topological changes in inflammatory bowel disease: an exploratory study

Published: May 2023

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by multiple and
complex pathogenic mechanisms that make its etiology unclear.
Nevertheless, it is known that the interaction between genetic and
adverse environmental factors may reduce the variety of the intestinal
microbiota, and this could result in inflammation having effects on the
brain functions through the gut-brain axis. In this paper, we assumed
possible alterations in the large-scale brain organization in IBD. To
test our hypothesis, we analyzed source-reconstructed
magnetoencephalography (MEG) signals in resting state condition in 25
patients and 28 healthy controls. Then, we applied the graph theory to
evaluate the brain network topology. Finally, to assess whether changes
in the whole-brain activity were linked to IBD clinical evolution, we
correlated brain network alterations to disease duration. We found that
the betweenness centrality (BC) of the left hippocampus was higher in
IBD patients as compared to controls, in the gamma frequency band. We
observed a negative correlation between topological data and disease
duration, with only a trend toward the statistical significance. The
hippocampus is a key region in the gut-brain axis, and the chronic
intestinal inflammation specifically alters its functioning. In
addition, given the large number of glucocorticoid receptors, the
hippocampus is highly susceptible to long-term stress, probably
explaining the increase of the local BC. Furthermore, the trend toward a
negative correlation with disease duration may be interpreted as a brain
compensatory mechanism for IBD-related stress. However, although these
findings are promising, we need to recruit more patients to clarify
their clinical impact.
Quantifying the Contributors to Extreme Sea Level Events in the Western Mediterranean at High Spatio-temporal Resolution
Authors: Ramos-Alcántara Jorge , Agulles Miguel , Gomis Damia , Jordà Gabriel
Published: May 2023

A comprehensive characterisation of extreme sea levels at different
spatio-temporal scales is presented for the Western Mediterranean. The
classical view of extreme sea levels as a consequence of the concurrence
of storm events and high tides may lead to an incomplete picture for the
Mediterranean coasts, where the tidal regime is small and processes
operating at high frequencies can contribute significantly to extreme
levels. Our approach bases on the analysis of tide gauge records with a
high sampling frequency (1 minute), in order to consider other
contributors beyond storm surges and tides. To have a basin-scale view,
we first analyse the tide gauges operated by Puertos del Estado, which
are distributed over all the Spanish Mediterranean coasts and cover at
least from 2010 to 2022. Next, we focus on a more reduced domain to take
advantage of the unprecedented spatio-temporal resolution of the VENOM
tide gauge network, opering since 2020 in the Balearic archipelago.
Last, we analyse the role of waves in local extreme sea level events by
propagating waves towards the coast in the Bay of Palma. The wave run-up
estimates are calculated considering the type of coastal protection and
are used to simulate the potential flooding that could occur in the
future under an unfavourable climate change scenario. Our results
highlight the importance of high-frequency sea level records to study
extreme events, and the key role of processes such as meteotsunamis and
waves in the occurrence of extreme sea levels.
A Climatic Sand Management Model for Cardiff State Beach, CA
Authors: Gopal Sreeja , O'Reilly W.C. , Young Adam P. , Flick Reinhard E. , Merrifield Mark A. , Matsumoto Hironori , Guza R.T.
Published: May 2023

An empirically based sediment budget model is developed for Cardiff
State Beach CA to assess management strategies to maintain beach width
subject to mean sea level rise (MSLR) and potentially more frequent El
Niño storms. Two decades (2000-2019) of surveys support the hypothesis
that the rocky reefs bounding this beach retain sand added to the
nearshore zone, except during strong El Niño years with more severe
storm waves. The subaerial beach has widened by ~60 m
during the last 20 years owing to nourishment (~17K
m3/yr) of imported sand, and sand bypassed annually by dredging a lagoon
inlet at the beach’s updrift end. The observed widening yields 1 m/yr of
mean beach width increase for each 6 m3/m-shoreline of added sand. A
strong El Niño year is modeled with a permanent volume loss coupled with
a shoreline retreat that recovers partially as the beach profile adjusts
between El Niño years. Calibrated with observations from Cardiff and
South Torrey Pines (a control beach), the model is used to project beach
change through 2050. All modeled scenarios suggest that no bypassing or
nourishment (no “management”) will result in tens of meters of beach
width loss. However, continued bypassing would partially mitigate MSLR
and El Niño beach width losses. An artificially built (living shoreline)
dune that backs the beach, if completely undermined during strong El
Niño storm waves, stores enough sand to balance one-third of the
expected volume loss that year, and may make the beach more resilient
and speed subsequent beach recovery.
Aggregating XAI methods for insights into geoscience models with correlated and high-dimensional rasters
Authors: Krell Evan , Kamangir Hamid , Collins Waylon , King Scott A , Tissot Philippe
Published: May 2023

Geoscience applications have been using sophisticated machine learning
methods to model complex phenomena. These models are described as black
boxes since it is unclear what relationships are learned. Models may
exploit spurious associations that exist in the data. The lack of
transparency may limit user’s trust, causing them to avoid high
performance models since they cannot verify that it has learned
realistic strategies. EXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is a
developing research area for investigating how models make their
decisions. However, XAI methods are sensitive to feature correlations.
This makes XAI challenging for high-dimensional models whose input
rasters may have extensive spatial-temporal autocorrelation. Since many
geospatial applications rely on complex models for target performance, a
recommendation is to combine raster elements into semantically
meaningful feature groups. However, it is challenging to determine how
best to combine raster elements. Here, we explore the explanation
sensitivity to grouping scheme. Experiments are performed on FogNet, a
complex deep learning model that uses 3D Convolutional Neural Networks
(CNN) for coastal fog prediction. We demonstrate that explanations can
be combined with domain knowledge to generate hypotheses about the
model. Meteorological analysis of the XAI output reveal FogNet’s use of
channels that capture relationships related to fog development,
contributing to good overall model performance. However, analyses also
reveal several deficiencies, including the reliance on channels and
channel spatial patterns that correlate to the predominate fog type in
the dataset, to make predictions of all fog types. Strategies to improve
FogNet performance and trustworthiness are presented.
Mid-infrared spectroscopy of sulfidation reaction products and implications for Sulfur on Mercury
Authors: Renggli Christian J. , Stojic Aleksandra N. , Morlok Andreas , Berndt Jasper , Weber Iris , Klemme Stephan , Hiesinger Harald
Published: May 2023

We propose that the observed enrichment of sulfur at the surface of
Mercury (up to 4 wt.%) is the product of silicate sulfidation reactions
with a S-rich reduced volcanogenic gas phase. Here, we present new
experiments on the sulfidation behavior of olivine, diopside, and
anorthite. We investigate these reaction products, and those of
sulfidized glasses with Mercury compositions previously reported, by
mid-IR reflectance spectroscopy. We investigate both the reacted bulk
materials as powders, as well as cross-sections of the reaction products
by in-situ micro-IR spectroscopy. The mid-IR spectra confirm the
presence of predicted reaction products including quartz. The mid-IR
reflectance of sulfide reaction products, such as CaS (oldhamite) or MgS
(niningerite), is insufficient to be observed in the complex run
products. However, the ESA/JAXA BepiColombo mission to Mercury will be
able to test our hypothesis by investigating correlated abundances of
sulfides with other reaction products such as quartz.
Disaggregating the carbon exchange of degrading permafrost peatlands using Bayesian deep learning

Published: May 2023

Extensive regions in the permafrost zone are projected to become
climatically unsuitable to sustain permafrost peatlands over the next
century, suggesting transformations in these landscapes that can leave
large amounts of permafrost carbon vulnerable to post-thaw
decomposition. We present three years of eddy covariance measurements of
CH4 and CO2 fluxes from the degrading permafrost peatland Iskoras in
Northern Norway, which we disaggregate into separate fluxes of palsa,
pond, and fen areas using information provided by the dynamic flux
footprint in a novel ensemble-based Bayesian deep neural network
framework. The three-year mean CO2-equivalent flux is estimated to be
106 gCO2 m-2 yr-1 for palsas, 1780 gCO2 m-2 yr-1 for ponds, and -31 gCO2
m-2 yr-1 for fens, indicating that possible palsa degradation to
thermokarst ponds would strengthen the local greenhouse gas forcing by a
factor of about 17, while transformation into fens would slightly reduce
the current local greenhouse gas forcing.
Elemental Stoichiometry of Particulate Organic Matter across the Atlantic Ocean
Authors: Fagan Adam J , Tanioka Tatsuro , Larkin Alyse A , Lee Jenna Alyson , Garcia Nathan S , Martiny Adam Camillo
Published: May 2023

Recent studies show that stoichiometric elemental ratios of marine
ecosystems are not static at Redfield proportions but vary
systematically between biomes. However, the wider Atlantic Ocean is
under-sampled for particulate organic matter (POM) elemental
composition, especially as it comes to phosphorus. Thus, it is uncertain
how environmental variation in this region translates into shifts in
C:N:P. To address this, we analyzed hydrography, genomics, and POM
concentrations from 877 stations on the meridional transects AMT28 and
C13.5, spanning the Atlantic Ocean. We observed nutrient-replete,
high-latitude ecosystem C:N:P to be significantly lower than the
oligotrophic gyres. Latitudinal and zonal differences in elemental
stoichiometry were linked to overall nutrient supply as well as N vs. P
limitation. C:P and N:P were generally higher in the P-stressed northern
region compared to southern hemisphere regions. We also detected a zonal
difference linked to a westward deepening nutricline and a shift from N
to P limitation. We also evaluated possible seasonal changes in C:N:P
across the basin and predicted these to be limited. Overall, this study
confirms latitudinal shifts in surface ocean POM ratios but reveals
previously unrecognized hemisphere and zonal gradients. This work
demonstrates the importance of understanding how regional shifts in
hydrography and type of nutrient stress shape the coupling between
Atlantic Ocean nutrient and carbon cycles.

Published: May 2023

Este artigo analisa como os saberes docentes são desenvolvidos na formação inicial, a fim de formar professores de línguas conscientes para um projeto de educação linguística. Tomamos como registro documental o Projeto Pedagógico de um curso de Letras e realizamos uma entrevista com alunos do último período do curso. Como aporte teórico utilizamos o conceito de ideologema (DEL VALLE, 2010) e analisamos os dados a partir da Análise do Discurso Crítica (WODAK, 2009) e as relações de poder estabelecida numa instância de formação inicial (FOUCAULT, 2008, 2014). Os resultados mostram que divergências entre o que é prescrito no documento que orienta a formação e o que é realizado pelos professores formadores pode interferir negativamente no desenvolvimento do potencial crítico-reflexivo dos professores em formação, no que diz respeito à apropriação dos saberes disciplinares (linguísticos) da profissão.

Este artigo analisa a implementação da Lei nº 10.639/03 como ferramenta político-pedagógica para uma educação antirracista na escola, no contexto da educação básica brasileira, A metodologia ancorou-se numa revisão bibliográfica e a análise documental da Lei nº 10. 639/03. Com aporte nas referências e no texto da referida Lei, evidencia-se que a partir do cenário de desigualdades raciais e exclusões sociais do povo negro é que as políticas públicas reparadoras e ações afirmativas se fazem necessárias para o combate ao preconceito racial na sociedade brasileira. Nesse sentido, corrobora-se para a ressignificação e valorização da população negra nos aspectos culturais, sociais, científicos, políticos entre outros. Assim, torna-se importante a desconstrução de práticas estereotipadas que estão presentes nas instituições escolares, buscando, por meio de uma educação antirracista, reconhecer a contribuição da população negra na construção da sociedade brasileira.
Effect of the quality of orthodontic finishing on the stability of anterior tooth alignment
Authors: Mecenas Paulo , Cardoso Paula Coutinho , Maia Nair Galvão , Maia Francisco Ajalmar , Normando David
Published: May 2023

Objectives

To evaluate whether the quality of orthodontic finishing influences long-term stability of anterior tooth alignment.

Materials and Methods

This retrospective study evaluated 38 patients. Data were obtained at the beginning of treatment (T0), at the end (T1), and at least 5 years after T1 (T2). At this point, the individuals were no longer wearing retainers. Anterior tooth alignment was measured using Little's index (LI). Effect on alignment stability was tested with multiple linear regression using LI–T0, LI–T1, intercanine width difference T1–T0, overbite (T1), overjet (T1), age, gender, time without retention, and presence of third molars as predictor variables. Well-aligned (LI < 1.5 mm) and misaligned (LI > 1.5 mm) cases were compared at T2.

Results

At T2, the alignment stability in the upper arch was inversely associated with the alignment quality (R2 = 0.378, P < .001) and directly associated with overbite (R2 = 0.113, P = .008) at T1. Posttreatment changes caused cases finished with poor alignment to become similar to those finished with excellent alignment (P = .917). In the mandible, posttreatment changes were directly associated only with overjet (R2 = 0.152, P = .015) and well-finished cases displayed better alignment than poorly finished cases (P = .011). Other variables showed no significant association.

Conclusions

In arches without retention, better quality of orthodontic finishing does not guarantee the stability of anterior alignment. In the maxilla, long-term changes were more significant the greater the overbite and the better the quality of alignment at end of treatment. In the mandible, changes were not dependent on the quality of finishing but were associated with greater overbite at T2.

This study explores how the evolutionary changes in Dodoma's urban administrative status from lowest to highest ranks in Tanzania have resulted in the emergence of Un - ecological urban land use and land cover changes, urban land degradation, and un-ecological urban villages in the locality of the newly established Dodoma National Capital City. The empirical evidence for this study has been drawn from interviewing 443 respondents in 17 wards and 56 sub-wards and through analysing Landsat satellite images of 1998, 2008, 2018 and 2022 years by semi-automatic classification plug-in (SCP) in Quantum Geographical information system (QGIS) software (version 3.12.3). The findings of this study revealed that built-up land hectares have increased by 60%, bare land hectares decreased by 23%, vegetation hectares decreased by 13%, and water hectares decreased by 1% between 1998 and 2022.
If Dodoma City persists in the same way up to 2030 without green building concepts and design, New urbanism and ecological modernization theories interventions it will lose the potential of being a resilient and liveable National Capital City. Sustainable development principles are recommended to be utilized in all the major development projects to be carried out in the city advert the situation.

Published: May 2023

Styrofoam has many negative impacts because it harms health, pollutes the environment, and cannot decompose in nature. Efforts have been made to develop biofoam derived from natural kinds of stuff to reduce the harmful effects of styrofoam. So that they are safer and do not pollute the environment. Biofoam in this study was made from tapioca starch, corncob fiber, a binding polymer in the form of Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA), and a superhydrophobic agent in the form of silica aerogel. This research was conducted to determine the effect of variations in the composition of corncob fiber on the physical properties of biofoam with the addition of silica aerogel. The production of corncob fiber was carried out in two stages, namely using 10% NaOH to remove lignin and bleaching using 10% H2O2 to bleach the fibers, which were then combined into the biofoam mixture. The production of biofoam used the thermopressing method with a temperature of 150° and pressed for 4 minutes with fiber variations of 13.75g, 16.25g, 18.75g, and 21.25g. Add conclusion of the research is 18.75 g of fiber with a water absorption value of (1.2 ± 0.2)%, a density of (0.5 ± 0.1)g/cm3, and a compressive strength of 3.60 MPa.

It has been realized that the measurement of the Thai type of cassava starch uses a semi-cylindrical capacitor has been done. This measurement is carried out by providing an input signal to the semi-cylindrical capacitor plate using the IC XR-2206 oscillator with a frequency of 100 kHz. The output signal from the capacitor is in the form of an AC voltage which is then forwarded to the full wave rectifier circuit. The output voltage of the rectifier is a DC voltage, and the results are displayed using a DSO oscilloscope. Cassava starch content was measured by the specific gravity method, and the stress was measured using a semi-cylindrical capacitor. In measuring the starch content, the starch content was 19.12 - 28.76% (range 9.64%) and gave an output voltage of 7.53 - 7.89 V (range 0.36 V). Using the linear regression method, the characteristic equation V = 0.035 KP + 6.871, and the correlation value was equals to 0.985.
