Proposed Business Strategy for PT Aneka Tambang TBK for Market Development in Order to Increase Export of Ferronickel
Authors:   School of Business Management, Institut Teknologi Bandung, Ginting Jessika Ina Putri
Published: June 2022

PT Aneka Tambang (ANTAM) Tbk is part of the SOE’s Holding Mining Industry which vertically integrated, export-oriented, diversified mining and metals company. ANTAM has two big commodities which are gold sectors and nickel sectors. Nickel based products consist of Nickel Ore, Ferronickel, Bauxite, and Alumina. Ferronickel is a high-grade product of nickel downstream which contains 20% – 25% of nickel and mostly consumed by stainless steel companies. ANTAM is the only company in Indonesia that can produce Ferronickel. In the nickel market, many companies produce the substitute product of Ferronickel which is Nickel Pig Iron (NPI). Ferronickel and NPI are serving the same market while NPI itself contain lower of nickel and cheaper than Ferronickel. Government of Indonesia supported the development of downstream industries in Indonesia. The growth of battery industries is escalating resulted high demand for it. Technology is currently improving the process to transform Ferronickel and NPI into Nickel Mattes (Ni Mattes) which used to be an intermediate component to produce electric vehicles (EV). Based on the demand of global market, there are many demands for Ferronickel supplies in the worldwide. However, the capacity exports of Ferronickel in ANTAM are still far behind. This study analyzes business problems using several tools to identify the external environment and internal environment of ANTAM. SWOT analysis is used to capture the strength, weakness, opportunity, and threat that affects the business of the company. The Root Cause Analysis is used to define problems that happened in ANTAM and needed to be solved. Data and information were obtained from various sources such as interviews with the internal of ANTAM, observation, and study from the literature. The study found that ANTAM has lower export sales caused by the limited market scope, lack of promotion, and no product development. To overcome the problems that faced by ANTAM, the author proposes a business strategy for ANTAM for market development to increase export of Ferronickel by using the Strategy Diamond Framework and Ansoff Matrix as the strategy that will be implemented in ANTAM. The stages in this strategy were concerned more with the issues and provide solutions to increase the export of Ferronickel. Therefore, ANTAM should focus on market development to reach the widen market and fulfill the demand of Ferronickel in the global market.

Redes de interações entre besouros Ciidae e seus fungos hospedeiros em fragmentos florestais de Viçosa, Minas Gerais
Authors:   , Calderano Ayessa Michelle Rosa de Oliveira
Published: June 2022

A micofagia, hábito de se alimentar de estruturas fúngicas ou de material vegetal que tenha sido decomposto por enzimas fúngicas, é um dos hábitos alimentares mais antigos dos besouros. Uma importante família de besouros que possuem associação obrigatória com fungos é Ciidae, cujos integrantes utilizam os fungos como abrigo e alimento durante todo seu ciclo de vida, sendo classificados como micetobiontes. Os fungos aos quais os ciídeos se associam pertencem ao filo Basidiomycota e apresentam importante papel na ciclagem de nutrientes, pois realizam degradação da madeira, sendo capazes de decompor celulose, hemicelulose e lignina. Os ciídeos são responsáveis pela degradação de grande parte dos basidiomas desses fungos, impedindo maior acúmulo dessas estruturas e contribuindo com o aumento da disponibilidade de nutrientes importantes para os sistemas florestais. Embora as interações entre os besouros Ciidae e seus fungos hospedeiros já tenham sido relativamente bem estudadas, os estudos dessas interações na região Neotropical ainda são escassos. Diante disto, realizamos neste trabalho, um estudo das interações dos ciídeos e seus hospedeiros em dois fragmentos florestais pertencentes ao bioma Mata Atlântica. Utilizamos a abordagem de análise de redes ecológicas e avaliamos importantes índices usados para descrever comunidades: conectância, assimetria da rede, links por espécie, aninhamento, robustez e especialização. Assim, foi possível conhecer e comparar as estruturas das duas comunidades de Ciidae e seus fungos hospedeiros. Nossos resultados mostraram que as principais espécies de fungos hospedeiros das duas comunidades foram as mesmas. Apesar disso, encontramos diferenças no uso de hospedeiros pelos ciídeos de acordo com a disponibilidade de espécies fúngicas, resultando em diferentes estruturas de rede. Encontramos espécies de Ciidae que nos permitiram fazer importantes inferências a respeito da qualidade dos fragmentos estudados. Keywords: Ciidae. Micetobiontes. Micofagia. Rede de interação.

Gout is a systemic disease caused by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals in various tissues and organs with the subsequent development of autoinflammation. The problem of comorbidity in gout has been known for a long time and continues to be actively studied. The gout is associated with cardiovascular diseases, metabolic and metabolic disorders, kidney diseases, and hyperuricemia plays an important role in these associations. Therefore, the elimination of hyperuricemia is the basis of the modern strategy of effective therapy for gout, the main principle of which is “treat-to-target” (serum uric acide concentration <360 μmol/L [6 mg/dL]). Nevertheless, many patients who need treatment for gout still do not receive therapy or receive suboptimal therapy, which significantly increases the risks of overall and cardiovascular mortality. In this regard, it is of great importance that physicians are aware of the indications, optimal timing of initiation and purposes of urate-lowering therapy, as well as strengths and weaknesses of certain urate-lowering drugs, including skin, kidneys, heart, and liver adverse events. The review highlights the modern principles of urate-lowering therapy, including the place of febuxostat in the treatment of patients with gout.

The problem of urinary incontinence is multidisciplinary. Patients with this problem get an appointment with therapists, general practitioners, pediatricians, urologists, gynecologists, neurologists. Real clinical practice is currently characterized by a significant increase in clinical situations, when it is difficult to talk about the presence of only one disease in a patient, and in most clinical cases the patient has a concomitant or combined pathology. Arterial hypertension and diabetes mellitus are among the most common somatic diseases. To analyze the influence of these diseases on the development of urinary incontinence, we searched the MEDLINE and elibrary.ru databases. Metabolic syndrome is a consolidated manifestation of the comorbidity of hypertension, diabetes mellitus and obesity. There is only sporadic information on the possible effect of drug therapy for comorbid pathology, in particular antihypertensive therapy, on the symptoms of urinary incontinence. Drugs used to treat urinary incontinence can affect comorbid conditions in patients. In patients with urinary incontinence and the presence of comorbid conditions, which are also risk factors for urinary incontinence, the choice of a drug for the treatment of urinary incontinence with minimal effect on comorbid comorbid pathology is relevant. The results of numerous studies demonstrate that the use of trospium chloride allows for effective and safe pharmacotherapy of urinary incontinence, including in comorbid patients.

Authors: Ferreira Candido Cristiane Raquel , Reis dos Santos Flavio
Published: June 2022

O presente estudo teve o objetivo de analisar a percepção de professoras da Educação Infantil e do Ensino Fundamental I das escolas municipais rurais de Morrinhos/GO sobre o Meio Ambiente e a Educação Ambiental, a saber: Escola Municipal Vereador Deusdete Damacena, Escola Municipal Lindolfo Alves Pinto e Escola Municipal José Cândido da Silva. Por ser uma pesquisa que envolve a percepção do sujeito, optou-se pelo estudo de caso com o emprego de uma abordagem qualitativa para análise dos dados. Em todas as escolas foram aplicados questionários com perguntas semiestruturadas para as sete professoras participantes da pesquisa, relacionadas às questões ambientais. Cabe esclarecer que este estudo decorre da inquietação em repensar a relação do homem com a natureza, bem como das concepções de desenvolvimento, progresso e crescimento impostas pelo modelo econômico capitalista e a forma como a Educação Ambiental (EA) está sendo trabalhada nas escolas rurais. Os resultados mais importantes apontam que a escola é um dos principais locais para promover mudanças de comportamento ao trabalhar com os diversos saberes ambientais, porém, muitos desafios no trabalho com a EA ainda precisam ser superados, a começar pela formação dos professores. A maior parte dos sujeitos da pesquisa ainda tem uma visão reducionista, naturalizada e antropocêntrica tanto em relação ao meio ambiente quanto em relação à EA.

Thailand’s Balancing Behavior, 1947–1991: Some Empirical Evidence
Authors: Bunyavejchewin Poowin , Suporn Thapiporn , Sirichuanjun Ketsarin
Published: June 2022

This study examines the determinants that shaped the balancing behavior of Thailand from 1947 to 1991 by testing hypotheses developed from arguments on three competing theories of balancing behavior, namely the systemic balance of power and balance of threat theories, as well as Martin’s simple model of balancing behavior. We found that a combination of power, geographic distance, and perceived offensive intentions was the factor that prompted Thailand to balance against threatening states. The finding was found using quantitative data extracted from the Correlates of War (COW) Project and the Alliance Treaty Obligations and Provisions (ATOP) Project and those generated by Expected Utility Generation and Data Management Program (EUGene) software to test the hypotheses. The statistical evidence confirms the historical narrative of Thai diplomatic history: that is, Thailand did not try to balance against communist China, its giant neighbor, but rather against Vietnam and Cambodia, which were perceived as essentially dangerous to the country’s security and territorial integrity. In addition, we found that the major-power capability concentration of the Cold War international system had a mild effect on Thai behavior. However, it is difficult to generalize how such systemic attributes dictated directions in Thai foreign policy.
Desistance and Recidivism Among Former Prisoners in Malaysia: A Proposed Model According to the Age-Graded Theory
Authors: Jasni Mohd Alif , Abu Bakar Ah Siti Hajar , Omar Noralina , Che Mohd Nasir Norruzeyati
Published: June 2022

The Age-Graded Theory suggests that the causes of premature delinquency and adult deviant behaviour are not the exclusive outcomes of individual characteristics since a particular incident in life can affect individuals, perpetuating their persistency in committing offences. This paper demonstrates that constructive events in life can successfully prevent former prisoners from being reinvolved in crime, whilst adverse life happenings can derail former prisoners from staying on the right path—a phenomenon known as recidivism. Adopting the phenomenology research paradigm, the findings of this paper are based on the empirical data from a Malaysian case study involving 19 former prisoners with criminal records of various offences. The findings of this study reveal that Age-Graded life-course events are essential predictors of former prisoner criminal behaviour, rendering the theory valuable, especially when it comes to modelling social reintegration strategies and interventions for former prisoners.

Brain tumor is the growth of abnormal cells in brain some of which may leads to cancer. The usual method to detect brain tumor is Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans. From the MRI images information about the abnormal tissue growth in the brain is identified. In various research papers, the detection of brain tumor is done by applying Machine Learning and Deep Learning algorithms. When these algorithms are applied on the MRI images the prediction of brain tumor is done very fast and a higher accuracy helps in providing the treatment to the patients. These prediction also helps the radiologist in making quick decisions. In the proposed work, a self-defined Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Convolution Neural Network (CNN) is applied in detecting the presence of brain tumor and their performance is analyzed.

Published: June 2022

Machine learning (ML) is expected to provide a variety of ways and effective tools to improve education in general in the future. Digital data tracks from different sources covering various aspects of students' lives are stored daily on most modern university and college campuses. However, it is very challenging to get a complete view of a student and combine that data, use this data to accurately predict a student's academic performance, and use such predictions to enhance students' positive engagement with universities or colleges. First of all, data from previous year’s students (name, year, department, category, mark, etc.) such as academic performance and behavioral measurements are entered using online forms. Subsequent features were extracted and machine learning-based training was provided and machine learning-based taxonomy algorithms will be developed to predict educational performance. Based on the accuracy obtained through the analyzed and tested Machine Learning algorithms, will provide a set of recommendations for teachers to improve students' quality and learning ability.

Published: June 2022

Cancer is one of the most serious and widespread disease that is responsible for large number of deaths every year. Among all different types of cancers, lung cancer is the most prevalent cancer having the highest mortality rate. Computed tomography scans are used for identification of lung cancer as it provides detailed picture of tumor in the body and tracks its growth. Computed Tomography is preferred over other imaging modalities, visual interpretation of these CT scan images may be an error prone task and can cause delay in lung cancer detection. The algorithm for lung cancer detection is proposed using methods such as median filtering for image preprocessing followed by segmentation of lung region of interest using mathematical morphological operations.

Authors: Al-Jubouri Hamid Qassim Mohammed
Published: June 2022

Health, economic and cultural backwardness was the dominant feature of the peoples of the ancient world, including Iraq in particular, where we read a lot about diseases and epidemics that ravaged the peoples of the world and killed millions of them, and we as Muslims also read about the plague that spread in the Levant at the beginning of the Islamic conquest of this Arab land and the expulsion of the Romans from it. And the Muslims lost many of them more than they sacrificed in the battles of the Islamic conquest, including the great companion Aba Ubaidah Amer Ibn al-Jarrah, the leader of the Muslims in the battles and then the governor of the Levant and Yazid Ibn Abi Sufyan, one of the leaders of the Islamic conquest. Between the sixteenth and the first half of the nineteenth century, modern Iraq witnessed more than (20) epidemic outbreaks, between limited and widespread. And between the period between the second half of the nineteenth century until the first quarter of the twentieth century, there were (19) epidemic outbreaks between wide and limited spread, especially the years 1867 to 1917 AD, and now after the outbreak of the Corona pandemic in our country and the whole world and its spread in Iraq at the beginning of the year 2020 AD, which infected Millions of the world’s peoples have collapsed in front of this pandemic, the best health services in the world, and it is still killing between day and night, in hot and cold weather, and all laboratories in the world are working to find an effective vaccine to stop this pandemic, which has brought the world to the brink of economic, health, educational, financial and social collapse.

Abstract. Secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) account for a large fraction of atmospheric
aerosol mass and play significant roles in visibility impairment by
scattering solar radiation. However, comprehensive evaluations of SOA
scattering abilities under ambient relative humidity (RH) conditions on the
basis of field measurements are still lacking due to the difficulty of
simultaneously direct quantifications of SOA scattering efficiency in dry
state and SOA water uptake abilities. In this study, field measurements of
aerosol chemical and physical properties were conducted in winter in Guangzhou
(lasting about 3 months) using a humidified nephelometer system and
aerosol chemical speciation monitor. A modified multilinear regression model
was proposed to retrieve dry-state mass scattering efficiencies (MSEs,
defined as scattering coefficient per unit aerosol mass) of aerosol
components. The more oxidized oxygenated organic aerosol (MOOA) with an O/C
ratio of 1.17 was identified as the most efficient light scattering aerosol
component. On average, 34 % mass contribution of MOOA to total submicron
organic aerosol mass contributed 51 % of dry-state organic aerosol
scattering. The overall organic aerosol hygroscopicity parameter κOA
was quantified directly through hygroscopicity closure, and hygroscopicity
parameters of SOA components were further retrieved using a multilinear
regression model by assuming hydrophobic properties of primary organic
aerosols. The highest water uptake ability of MOOA among organic aerosol
factors was revealed with κMOOA reaching 0.23, thus further
enhancing the fractional contribution of MOOA in ambient organic aerosol
scattering. In particular, the scattering abilities of MOOA were found to be even
higher than those of ammonium nitrate under RH of <70 %, which was
identified as the most efficient inorganic scattering aerosol component,
demonstrating that MOOA had the strongest scattering abilities in ambient
air (average RH of 57 %) during winter in Guangzhou. During the observation
period, secondary aerosols contributed dominantly to visibility degradation
(∼70 %), with substantial contributions from MOOA (16 % on
average), demonstrating significant impacts of MOOA on visibility
degradation. The findings of this study demonstrate that more attention needs
to be paid to SOA property changes in future visibility improvement
investigations. Also, more comprehensive studies on MOOA physical properties
and chemical formation are needed to better parameterize its radiative
effects in models and implement targeted control strategies on MOOA
precursors for visibility improvement.
Hourly historical and near-future weather and climate variables for energy system modelling

Published: June 2022

Abstract. Energy systems are becoming increasingly exposed to the impacts of weather and climate due to the uptake of renewable generation and the electrification of the heat and transport sectors. The need for high-quality meteorological data to manage present and near-future risks is urgent. This paper provides a comprehensive set of multi-decadal, time series of hourly meteorological variables and weather-dependent power system components for use in the energy systems modelling community.
Despite the growing interest in the impacts of climate variability and climate change on energy systems over the last decade, it remains rare for multi-decadal simulations of meteorological data to be used within detailed simulations. This is partly due to computational constraints, but also due to technical barriers limiting the use of meteorological data by non-specialists.
This paper presents a new European-level dataset which can be used to investigate the impacts of climate variability and climate change on multiple aspects of near-future energy systems. The datasets correspond to a suite of well-documented, easy-to-use, self-consistent, hourly- and nationally aggregated, and sub-national time series for 2 m temperature, 10 m wind speed, 100 m wind speed, surface solar irradiance, wind power capacity factor, solar power factor, and degree days spanning over 30 European countries. This dataset is available for the historical period 1950–2020 and is accessible from https://doi.org/10.17864/1947.000321 (Bloomfield and Brayshaw, 2021a). As well as this a companion dataset is created where the ERA5 reanalysis is adjusted to represent the impacts of near-term climate change (centred on the year 2035) based on five high-resolution climate model simulations. These data are available for a 70-year period for central and northern Europe. The data are accessible from https://doi.org/10.17864/1947.000331 (Bloomfield and Brayshaw, 2021b). To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first time a comprehensive set of high-quality hourly time series relating to future climate projections has been published, which is specifically designed to support the energy sector. The purpose of this paper is to detail the methods required for processing the climate model data and illustrate the importance of accounting for climate variability and climate change within energy system modelling from the sub-national to European scale. While this study is therefore not intended to be an exhaustive analysis of climate impacts, it is hoped that publishing these data will promote greater use of climate data within energy system modelling.
The singular value decomposition method of improved incidence matrix for isomorphism identification of epicyclic gear trains

Published: June 2022

Abstract. The epicyclic gear train (EGT) is an advanced gear
transmission mechanism, which is widely applied in drive systems. It is
of great significance to eliminate the same structure in the type synthesis
of EGTs. In this paper, an isomorphism identification method of EGTs based
on the singular value decomposition of improved incidence matrix is
proposed. Firstly, the improved incidence matrix is used to describe the
structure of EGTs. Then, the degree sequence of links and kinematic pairs
can be extracted and used as a basic information for preliminary screening.
The improved incidence matrix can effectively distinguish multiple joints.
Next, the topological connection relationship between the links and the
kinematic pairs is extracted by the singular value decomposition of the
matrix, which is used as the final value for isomorphism identification of
EGTs. Finally, the effectiveness of this method is verified through a lot of
examples.
ТАКСОНОМІЯ БЛУМА ЯК ІНСТРУМЕНТ РОЗВИТКУ КРИТИЧНОГО МИСЛЕННЯ У ЗДОБУВАЧІВ ВИЩОЇ ЮРИДИЧНОЇ ОСВІТИ
Authors: Борисова Олеся Олегівна
Published: June 2022

Стаття присвячена розгляду питань підвищення якості вищої юридичної освіти в Україні в контексті застосування сучасного компетентнісного підходу. Юридична освіта традиційно продовжує займати місця в трійці лідерів рейтингу обраних абітурієнтами напрямів освіти в Україні. Незважаючи на дискусію щодо якості юридичної освіти та, на жаль, її не повну відповідність потребам сучасності, яка триває впродовж останніх кількох років у сфері юристів-практиків, правників-науковців та освітян, молодь продовжує висловлювати цікавість саме цією професією, адже її престижність лишається на високому рівні. А реформація юридичної освіти свідчить про наміри вітчизняних університетів виправити помилки минулого, чути запити роботодавців та забезпечити права здобувачів на отримання якісної сучасної, актуальної освіти. Перед вишами стоять великі задачі, вирішення яких потребує чіткого визначення щодо поняття якості юридичної освіти та вдосконалення методології розвинення компетентностей, в першу чергу – інтелектуальних. Вдосконалення, або оновлення методики викладання, яка спирається не тільки на педагогічні, але й андрагогічні принципи, сприятиме покращенню рівня освітньої послуги. У статті наголошується на доцільності використання в юридичних вишах під час викладання навчальних дисциплін таких педагогічних методів, які дозволять здобувачам швидко та ефективно розвивати всі рівні мислення, в тому числі мислення критичне. Наведено визначення, характеристику та історію створення таксономії навчальних цілей та результатів навчання Бенджаміна Блума, її трансформація та адаптація до сучасних потреб освіти. Представлено як класичну ієрархію рівнів мислення, так і доповнену (уточнену) версію таксономії. Розкрито можливості вдосконалення методики викладання навчальних дисциплін шляхом застосування спеціальних модельних питань, які спрямовані на розвиток певного рівня мислення здобувачів, від найпростішого – запам’ятовування фактів та термінів, до найскладнішого – створення нового інтелектуального продукту в результаті критичного аналізу та осмислення інформації.
