Published: July 2022

Word recognition using deep learning is a simple approach to speech recognition in general. From this word-level recognition, the emotional expression recognition model. The emotion recognition model can be used to describe the important level of action on future planned hardware implementation. This research was conducted using MFCC as the feature extraction method from the audio data and using the CNN-LSTM approach for the emotional expression classifier. The model itself will be implemented into a humanoid robot to become a companion robot for the elderly. The model itself has 67% accuracy for emotion recognition and 97% accuracy for word recognition. However, the model only attained 20% accuracy in real-life testing using the humanoid robot as the model tends to overfitting as a result of the lack of data used in model training.
Primate Wyszyński’s Message to Students
Authors: Narecki Krzysztof
Published: July 2022

The subject of the article is the teaching of Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński, the Primate of Poland, addressed to young people, especially students of the Catholic University of Lublin. The analyses are based on the selected texts of speeches (and other documents) that Wyszyński addressed to the community of the Catholic University of Lublin, starting in 1946, when he was appointed bishop of Lublin, and ending in 1980, just before his death. As a result of the philological analysis of Wyszyński’s most important statements, it should be concluded that his message to students is an original pedagogy: full of heart, goodness, kindness and faith in other people. Wyszyński’s attitude is of a concerned and demanding father who really wishes for his “children” (“a tribe of new people”) to get not only a reliable education, but also life wisdom, and strong moral backbone, so that they can serve their neighbours and the homeland. In his teaching, Wyszyński presents a holistic vision of a young person – a student. This vision includes both their education and upbringing – understood as an integral combination of natural values (abilities, talents, qualities of spirit and body) with supernatural values, i.e. self-improvement for the sake of The One who should always be the Way, the Truth and the Life for young people and for all humanity. Wyszyński believed that the diplomas obtained by young people would wisely serve their homeland for a long time. Due to moral relativism, the crisis in the education of children and young people and the abandonment of Christian values, his speeches take on special significance today. Therefore, based on a solid, humanistic foundation, on the lasting categories of truth, good, beauty, solidarity and usefulness, the Primate’s educational message can be of use to the teacher who will effectively reach the hearts and minds of his students. He will equip them with complete knowledge and bring them closer to spiritual values and the Truth.
Judgement of the Polish Constitutional Tribunal of 22 October 2020 (K 1/20) on Eugenic Abortion
Authors: Wiak Krzysztof
Published: July 2022

The paper discusses the judgement of the Constitutional Tribunal of the Republic of Poland, given on 22 October 2020 (K 1/20) concerning eugenic abortion. The Constitutional Tribunal adjudicated that legal provisions permitting termination of pregnancy on the basis of “a high probability of the foetus’s severe and irreversible impairment” or of “the foetus’s lifethreatening incurable illness” are inconsistent with the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. The result of the ruling is a ban on eugenic abortion and, consequently, a wider scope of protection of human life in the prenatal period.

Authors: Wang Chenxin , Liu Ruiwan , Wang Bin , Abu-Siada Ahmed , Qiu Li
Published: July 2022

In the tube electromagnetic bulging, physical parameters of the driving coil are very important to the results of the electromagnetic forming, the height and outer diameter of the driving coil are the main geometric parameters that affect the distribution of the electromagnetic force and the axial tube uniformity. As such, this paper explores the influence of these two parameters on the workpiece relative uniform deformation under electromagnetic forming process from the aspects of magnetic force line characteristics, radial electromagnetic force distribution, and axial relative length. Results show that the changes of the height and outer diameter of the forming coil can modify the characteristics of the magnetic force lines and the electromagnetic force distribution at the end of the tube. Compared with the short and coarse driving coils, the proportion of uniform deformation on the bulging axis of the tube with slender coil is increased by nearly 42%. Obviously, electromagnetic bulging based on driving coil can reduce the uneven distribution of electromagnetic force caused by the end effect of driving coil and lead to uneven axial deformation to a certain extent. Results reveal that the tube electromagnetic bulging based on slender driving coil is easy to achieve axial uniform deformation, this study provides a valuable reference for the uniform of the workpiece in tube electromagnetic forming.

Authors: Podvin Sonia , Rosenthal Sara Brin , Poon William , Wei Enlin , Fisch Kathleen M. , Hook Vivian
Published: July 2022

Background: Huntington’s disease (HD) is a genetic neurodegenerative disease caused by trinucleotide repeat (CAG) expansions in the human HTT gene encoding the huntingtin protein (Htt) with an expanded polyglutamine tract. Objective: HD models from yeast to transgenic mice have investigated proteins interacting with mutant Htt that may initiate molecular pathways of cell death. There is a paucity of datasets of published Htt protein interactions that include the criteria of 1) defining fragments or full-length Htt forms, 2) indicating the number of poly-glutamines of the mutant and wild-type Htt forms, and 3) evaluating native Htt interaction complexes. This research evaluated such interactor data to gain understanding of Htt dysregulation of cellular pathways. Methods: Htt interacting proteins were compiled from the literature that meet our criteria and were subjected to network analysis via clustering, gene ontology, and KEGG pathways using rigorous statistical methods. Results: The compiled data of Htt interactors found that both mutant and wild-type Htt interact with more than 2,971 proteins. Application of a community detection algorithm to all known Htt interactors identified significant signal transduction, membrane trafficking, chromatin, and mitochondrial clusters, among others. Binomial analyses of a subset of reported protein interactor information determined that chromatin organization, signal transduction and endocytosis were diminished, while mitochondria, translation and membrane trafficking had enriched overall edge effects. Conclusion: The data support the hypothesis that mutant Htt disrupts multiple cellular processes causing toxicity. This dataset is an open resource to aid researchers in formulating hypotheses of HD mechanisms of pathogenesis.
Analyzing the Impact of Causal Factors on Political Management to Determine Sustainability Policy under Environmental Law: Enriching the Covariance-based SEMxi Model
Authors: Sutthichaimethee Pruethsan , Jittawiriyanukoon Chanintorn
Published: July 2022

This research aims to develop a causal relationship model on political management for sustainability policy formation under Thai environmental law by applying the best and valid model with a non-spurious property called the Covariance-based on Structural Equation Model with exogenous variables (Covariance-based SEMxi Model). This newly-developed model is in distinction with any past models as it is made effectively applicable to any sectors across areas. The model can also be utilized to design a long-term forecasting model with the ability to determine appropriate future scenarios. When assessing the covariance-based SEMxi model performance, the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and the root mean square error (RMSE) are estimated at 1.19% and 1.30%, respectively, in comparison of other models, including Gray-Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Model (GM-ARIMA), Gray Model (GM), Back Propagation Neural Network (BP), Artificial Neural Natural Model (ANN), and Multiple Regression Model (MR). As for the results, this research reveals a direct impact of economic factors on environmental and social factors. In the meanwhile, social factors have a direct impact on environmental and economic factors. The research also indicates a direct effect on the environment with a maximal magnitude of 67%. Whereas a direct effect of social factors on the environment is detected at the magnitude of 55%. These effects are perceived to exceed the specified carrying capacity set by Thailand. In addition, a causal relationship is observed between economic and social factors, where the environment is found with the lowest error correction capability of only 5 percent. At the same time, economic and social factors are noticed with greater correction capability of 59% and 31%, respectively. This finding implies that the ecosystem will experience slow recovery whenever it deteriorates. Hence, the government must place a higher concentration on the environment, while different measures on environmental legislation should be closely controlled to contain any future damage. Besides, energy consumption must be managed not to exceed the established carrying capacity by simultaneously implementing both proactive and reactive measures. This process can be strengthened by optimizing the newly-introduced model produced by this work for a scenario design in policy management to attain sustainability.

Published: July 2022

Jordan's energy demand is growing steadily due to many factors ranging from the growing population, to the needed energy for heating, cooling, desalination, and industry (Azzuni et al., 2020). EMRC has stated a new electricity tariff starting from April 2022. The high cost of electricity bill in Jordan with fixed tariff has resulted the need to have a dynamic tariff to transform energy use that lead to demand reductions, a shift in peak demand, a better management of distribution networks, in addition to reductions in operation costs. A full transition towards smart meters in Jordan is one of the main pillars to achieve a compatible smart grid system that will be a great solution to sustain the energy security. Also, it will lead to flatness the demand profile which will have economic consequences by reducing the cost of electricity generation. The current status of smart meters’ rollout, the optimal business model, challenges, and awareness towards energy strategies and smart meters deployment in Jordan have been investigated. It has been found that the optimal business model for the Jordanian market is a hybrid model of DGC and EaaS models. Also, a set of opportunities and recommendations have been concluded.

Published: July 2022

The aim of this study is to examine the importance of Environmental Accounting Disclosure Practices (EADP) and provide a systematic review based on the existing literature. Bibliometric analysis technique was used in this research work based on the Scopus database over a 30-year period (1991-2021), using a sample of 190 articles we determined the most relevant journals, influential authors, countries, keywords, academic institutions, most cited papers, and trends. The results of the study show that this area of research is still at an early stage but is developing at a greater pace. The current analysis reveals that there is a steady rise in publications, and major academic work in this area was from Italy, the USA and the UK. This research also highlighted that environmental accounting disclosure practices have a positive effect on a firm’s performance and that these disclosure practices are significantly dependent upon the firm’s characteristics such as firm size, profitability, time of listing, financial leverage, board size and firm age. This research work does not consider books and chapters but only includes papers published in academics and international journals. Future researchers can also take into consideration other literature review techniques and various other database platforms for data extraction.
The Impact of Technological Innovation on Energy Consumption in OECD Economies: the role of Outward Foreign Direct Investment and International Trade Openness
Authors: Osabuohien-Irabor Osarumwense , Drapkin Igor Mikhailovich
Published: July 2022

Over the last few years, empirical evidence has revealed that technological innovation plays a significant impact in reducing energy consumption and mitigation of carbon emission. But to achieve technological progress toward energy consumption sustainability, depend on several other factors. To this end, this study examines the role of outward foreign direct investment and international trade openness in innovation-energy nexus for 24 OECD countries for the period 1996-2015. To address econometric issues such as cross-sectional dependence, endogeneity, heterogeneity in the panel estimation process, this study employs the Cross-Sectionally Augmented autoregressive Distributed Lags (CS-ARDL), Augmented Mean Group estimator (AMG), and the System Generalized Methods of Moments (SYS-GMM) techniques. Finding reveals that the moderating effects of outward FDI and trade openness in the indirect relationship between technological innovation and energy demand exhibits an inverted U-shape curve. Specifically, this study finds that the impact of technological innovation on energy consumption via reverse technology spillover effect from outward FDI reinforces OECD countries toward energy-saving environmental sustainability both in the short-run and long-run. Furthermore, the joint impact of technological innovation and trade openness on energy demand is negative and statistically significant in the short and long run. This strengthens the efficiency of technologically innovative capabilities of OECD countries to effectively reduce energy consumption. These results are robust to different specifications and consistent across the various estimators, with sets of policy implication discussed.

Published: July 2022

Electricity is becoming an important commodity in Cameroon. Within the years, its consumption and production have led to many studies. Hence, having an idea on its progression is one of research’ concerns. Thus, this paper aims to develop a model for forecasting electricity production and consumption in Cameroon based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). Indeed, the LSTM approach, showing a good ability to grab the long-term dependencies between time steps of electricity production and consumption, allows a good prediction in 2030 of 7178GWh for consumption with 0.067 RMSE and 0.2965% MAPE and 8686GWh for production with 0.1631 RMSE and 0.4291%MAPE. Hence, the proposed model is more reliable, what makes possible to monitor the growth in electricity supply and demand, falling to the study of balance in Cameroon.

Authors: Zhakiyev Nurkhat , Aigerim Kalenova , Ayagoz Khamzina
Published: July 2022

Progression in population growth of the Nur-Sultan city can lead to a load on infrastructure, energy networks, and obsolescence of planning solutions. In this light, the transition to the concept of a “Smart City” can be the best way for green urban development. This article proposes to focus on the energy system of the capital of Kazakhstan. The urgency of this study is due to the fact that currently in the research literature there is an acute lack of knowledge on the current policy of Smart City in the energy sector of Nur-Sultan. Thus, the main goal of this research paper is to identify problems in the energy system by analyzing statistical information describing the current energy system, modern urban solutions, and new approaches to urban planning based on the case study on Smart City in Kazakhstan. The article discusses the main barriers, investment policy, and necessary actions, which will allow the city to acquire the status of “Smart”. Based on the policy and measures related to energy, and economically sustainable development of the city of Nur-Sultan the regression analysis on data and SWOT analysis are implemented. The results are summarized in a table that reflects some cost analysis statistics. The results of the present study are useful to academic researchers, smart city practitioners, and policymakers.
Achievement of both Growth and Environmental Conservation by Digital Platform Providers
Authors: Tsujimoto Masao
Published: July 2022

This study explores the achievement of both growth and environmental conservation by digital platform providers, employing financial performance and environmental impact data from six providers in the US and Japan. 1) The regression analyses confirm the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis in three combinations of earnings per share (EPS)–electricity consumption or waste generation, treasury stocks–water consumption, and an inverted N-shaped curve in the combination of EPS–Scope 2 CO₂ emissions. 2) The growing trend of Environment, Society, and Governance (ESG)-oriented investment has acted as competitive pressure on the providers for fundraising, especially in spurring them to disclose information. 3) Both increasing EPS to the verified thresholds and ESG-oriented management are deciding factors, and any advanced EPS and ESG-based approaches could contribute toward developing academic frontiers.
Can Oil Price Predict Exchange Rate? Empirical Evidence from Deep Learning
Authors: Safi Samir , Aliyu Salisu , Ibrahim Kekere Sule , Sanusi Olajide Idris
Published: July 2022

This paper critically analyses the predictability of exchange rates using oil prices. Extant literature that investigates the significance of oil prices in forecasting exchange rates remains largely inconclusive due to limitations arising from methodological issues.  As such, this study uses deep learning approaches such as Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP), Convolution Neural Network (CNN), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to predict exchange rates. In addition, the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) of time series dataset was utilized to ascertain its effect on the quality of prediction. To examine the efficacy of using oil prices in forecasting exchange rates, bivariate models were also built. Of the three bivariate models developed, the EMD-CNN model has the best predictive performance. Results obtained show that oil price information has a strong influence on forecasting exchange rates.
Electricity, Exergy and Economic Growth in Mozambique
Authors: Huo Teles , St. Aubyn Miguel
Published: July 2022

Electricity consumption and economic growth attracted the attention of researchers in several countries. Mozambique have few studies on this matter and non-related to useful exergy. This paper analyses the relationship between final electricity consumption, useful exergy and economic growth in Mozambique, from 1971 to 2014. The final electricity consumption data are expressed in GWh, from International Energy Agency database, which for Mozambique (until the date of writing) cover the period from 1971 to 2014. For this analysis an unrestricted VAR models were estimated to capture different types of effects, which are particularly important for an economy that underwent diverse phases and restructuring processes. Results indicate that there was a huge increase in final electricity consumption, from 2000 and 2001. Modelling with final electricity consumption and with useful energy illustrated that economic growth in Mozambique has not been influenced by final electricity consumption and useful exergy. However, economic growth induces final electricity consumption and useful exergy growth. The results suggests that sectors that induce economic growth in Mozambique are the least electricity intensive ones. The Police implications is that electricity access of those sectors that induce economic growth should be enhanced to keep them more competitive, and to sustain the growth.
A Study on Cryptocurrency Investors’ Purchase Intentions: Revisiting the Brand Personality Theory
Authors: Chittineni Jyothi
Published: July 2022

This paper aims to identify the factors affecting the investment decision of retail investors to add crypto assets to their portfolios. The personality theory and the innovation diffusion theory are used in this study to understand the characteristics that influence investors' buying intentions. The study results show that the retail investors' purchase intentions are influenced by familiarity with the asset, trust, risk and return profile of the asset class, and the perceived security of the investor. The study also examines the role of innovativeness as a moderating variable in the relationship between purchase intentions and the primary variables. The study confirms that innovativeness has a significant mediating role in the relationship between purchase intentions and trust and also in the relationship between purchase intentions and perceived security. The results indicate that innovativeness has no significant moderating impact on the relationship between purchase intentions and familiarity and also on the relationship between purchase intentions and risk and return consciousness.

Introduction. During the twentieth century, the processes of the formation of macro-ethnic communi-ties, such as, for example, the Chileans and Peruvians, were actively taking place in South America. The complex ethnogenesis of the countries of South America is the reason for the variety of anthropological types found in the studied countries. The population of both studied countries was formed in the process of mestization, but this process affected the regions of the west coast of South America to varying de-grees. The different ratio of the Amerindian and Caucasian components in the population of Chile and Peru led to the formation of different anthropological types, which are described in this article for the first time. Materials and methods. The work is based on the results of measurements of the head and face and the analysis of photographs among students of public universities in the cities of Santiago, Arica and Cuz-co. The analysis included measurements of 391 men and 164 women, the average age of the subjects was 23 years. 11 parameters of the head and face were measured according to the method of V.V. Bunak. Results. Descriptive statistics data for three samples are presented. Statistically significantly different parameters were determined. The studied groups statistically reliably differ in the linear dimensions of the smallest forehead width, the longitudinal diameter of the head, and the thickness of both lips. According to the results of the canonical discriminant analysis, the inhabitants of northern Chile occupy a predominantly intermediate position between the inhabitants of central Chile and Cuzco. Generalized portraits were ob-tained, and they clearly reflect the ethnic characteristics of the samples. Conclusions. All three studied groups are leptoprosopics and leptorhines, but, on average, the sam-ple from Cuzco belongs to brachycephalic, and both Chilean samples to mesocephalic. The intergroup analysis showed that the studied groups are significantly different, and in terms of the complex of charac-ters, the northern Chileans occupy an intermediate position between the central Chileans and the Peruvians from Cuzco.

Introduction. The purpose of the paper was to study the physique of highly qualified martial art athletes engaged in different types of wrestling, and to perform a retrospective analysis of the morphological fea-tures of wrestlers examined since the early 1920s. Materials and methods. Anthropometric data of 48 male athletes who were engaged in martial arts (different types of wrestling) for many years and reached high qualifications (from a candidate for master of sports and above) were used in this study. Athletes were 18-31 years old (mean age – 20.62±0.43), almost all of Russian ethnicity, permanent residents of Moscow. For comparative analysis, the materials of the anthro-pometric survey of young men – students of different Moscow universities were taken (N = 97). The stu-dents were not involved in sports, were of the same age (20.19±0.29), of Russian ethnicity and represented with different weight categories. They were used as a "control group". Results. On the materials of the anthropometric survey of athletes engaged in different types of wrestling, in comparison with the so-called "control group", a set of morphological features was established contrib-uting to the successful achievement in sports. When comparing the physique of modern athletes and wres-tlers surveyed in the early and middle of the last century (1920s and 1960s), it is shown that the trend of the secular increase in height typical for modern population, is expressed in athletes to a much lesser extent. Striking similarities are revealed for absolute and relative dimensions characterizing the skeletal body pro-portions of the wrestlers, which indicates the secular stability of this sports morphotype. Conclusion. The obtained results demonstrate the patterns of formation of morphological features and secular stability of the morphotype of highly qualified athletes involved in different types of wrestling. Re-vealed complex of somatic features can be used as additional morphological criteria for sports selection, professional orientation and prediction of competitive success.

From 12 until 28 of February 2020 the Nubian archaeological and anthropological mission of the Anuchin Research Institute and Museum of Anthropology, Lomonosov Moscow State University carried out the third season of archaeological works at the site Deraheib. The site is situated in the Red Sea province of the Sudan Republic in headwaters of Wadi al-Allaqi near the border with Egypt. Archaeological excavations geodesic survey and ethnographic research have been carried out during the season. Important information has been obtained in the course of archaeological work. It allowed us to sup-pose that the Northern Fortress one of the most interesting archaeological feature of the site had been func-tioning in 9th-13th AD and most probably was a palace of the local ruler. Analysis of finds discovered while sifting the filling of the Room I of the Northern Fortress has proved the information of the medieval Arab sources which described Al-Allaqi city as a center of caravan trade. Some aspects of physical health have been demonstrated by the results of the archeoparasitological analysis. Excavations at the Building 3 (Mosque) has revealed remains of the floor consisting of the grinded tuff and column (or arch) foot. One of the main achievements of the season 2020 was starting of the ethnographical field research of the Bisharin tribe living in the surroundings of the Deraheib. Field work at Deraheib during the third season has confirmed the high perspectives of the site for ar-chaeological anthropological and ethnographical studies.

Prácticas pedagógicas en una universidad chilena: Propósitos, temáticas y modalidades enunciativas
Authors: Calisto-Alegría Carla , Yeomans-Cabrera María Mercedes
Published: July 2022

La formación de profesores ha evolucionado en forma, fondo y calidad a lo largo del tiempo, y las prácticas pedagógicas han sido uno de los principales elementos de la integración de los saberes necesarios para ejercer la profesión docente. El objetivo de este estudio fue describir el proceso de adquisición de habilidades reflexivas de los profesores en formación en el ámbito de formación práctica, desde la perspectiva de académicos directivos y profesores en formación, desde un enfoque cualitativo, con un diseño fenomenológico y una muestra no probabilística. Para organizar y analizar los datos se utilizó la herramienta NVivo, para codificar y levantar categorías. Las fuentes de recolección de datos fueron: a) información recogida en talleres, b) grabaciones de audio de los grupos focales, y c) bitácoras de los profesores en formación. Los resultados mostraron que la conceptualización de los académicos acerca de los propósitos de las prácticas depende del programa formativo. Las temáticas propuestas por los profesores en formación se organizaron en las relacionadas consigo mismo, con los estudiantes, con el profesor colaborador y con los contenidos, y si bien en sus bitácoras emplearon distintas modalidades discursivas, predomina la descripción. Se ha detectado que el proceso de práctica requiere mejores y mayores orientaciones metodológicas, pedagógicas y escriturales, puesto que parece organizarse más a partir de la intuición del profesor tutor o guía y de los profesores en formación que en una secuenciación de destrezas y habilidades diseñadas a partir de un enfoque o modelo. Las prácticas pueden abordarse asociadas a la formación de habilidades escriturales, reflexivas e investigativas, pero requieren el ajuste y validación de sus propósitos formativos, mediante un trabajo colegiado y la revisión curricular pertinente a cada especialidad.

Este estudio investigó el proceso de transición de la modalidad presencial a la modalidad a distancia —provocado por la crisis sanitaria derivada de la enfermedad covid-19— desde las diferentes perspectivas de los integrantes de la Escuela de Prótesis Dental Taxqueña (EPRODENT), la cual se apoya en un sistema educativo basado en competencias profesionales. El enfoque teórico en el que se basó este trabajo es la teoría de la actividad, lo que permitió visualizar el fenómeno como un sistema de actividad humana para realizar un análisis de la acción cultural del entorno. Para realizar la presente investigación se efectuaron entrevistas semiestructuradas y se aplicaron cuestionarios a administrativos, docentes y estudiantes; los datos cuantitativos y cualitativos obtenidos permitieron analizar la actividad de la institución como un sistema de actividad con fortalezas, como la integración de nuevas herramientas tecnológicas para el aprendizaje, pero también con debilidades, como la falta de materiales para el trabajo de los estudiantes en casa, y contradicciones, como el poco uso de Google Classroom y el excesivo uso de WhatsApp en el desarrollo del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Se concluyó que la teoría de la actividad favoreció un enfoque global del sistema, lo que permitió realizar sugerencias de mejora.

Durante los cursos técnicos de inglés, una alta población de estudiantes adquiere paulatinamente un vocabulario amplio, domina los elementos gramaticales, etc.; pero muestra inseguridad y ansiedad excesivas al hablar en el idioma meta; entonces busca soluciones desde el plano cognoscitivo, al abordar la situación con la reinscripción sucesiva en cursos especiales o con propósitos específicos. La muestra de participantes fue de 39 estudiantes de inglés como lengua extranjera, de la República Dominicana. Se propuso el uso de la técnica de liberación emocional focalizando puntos de tapping o golpeteo en los meridianos de las manos. Se utilizó un análisis de varianza (ANOVA) para aproximar el efecto de la técnica sobre los resultados de los exámenes, después de aplicar dicha técnica. Para ello, fueron considerados los valores de la media antes y después, y se formularon los parámetros con un nivel de confianza del 95% y un margen de error del 0.05%. Se comprobó que la EFT disminuye los niveles de ansiedad, que la novedad de la estimulación de los meridianos de las manos es efectiva y que el estado generado después de aplicar la técnica podría influir en un mayor dominio de la competencia oral de los estudiantes de inglés como lengua extranjera.
Tűzkeresztségtől a hősiességig – a magyar katonák frontszereplése 1914-ben

Published: July 2022

1914-ben néhány pisztolylövés megrázott egy egész birodalmat és kitört az I. világháború. Számos döntő csatában vállaltak oroszlánrészt a magyar katonák, akiknek érzelemvilágáról kevés szó esik. Így a feltárt források alapján némi biológiai kapcsolattal párhuzamba hozva szeretném bemutatni a katonák tűzkeresztség során tanúsított érzelmeit és csatában tanúsított hősiességét. Utóbbi egyik legékesebb példája a limanowai csata, amely során a magyar katonák bizonyították bátorságukat és hősiességüket.

Machine learning (ML) prediction determinants based on open data (OD) are investigated in this work, which is accomplished by examining current research trends over ten years. Currently, OD is commonly regarded as the most crucial trend for users to improve their ability to make decisions, particularly to the exponential expansion of social networking sites (SNSs) and open government data (OGD).The purpose of this study was to examine if there was an increase in the usage of OD in ML prediction techniques by conducting a systematic literature review (SLR) of the results of the trends. The papers published in major online scientific databases between 2011 and 2020, including ScienceDirect, Scopus, IEEE Xplore, ACM, and Springer, were identified and analysed. After various selection and Springer, were identified and analysed. After various selection processes, according to SLR based on precise inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 302 articles were located. However, only 81 of them were included. The findings were presented and plotted based on the research questions (RQs). In conclusion, this research could be beneficial to organisations, practitioners, and researchers by providing information on current trends in the implementation of ML prediction using OD setting by mapping studies based on the RQs designed, the most recent growth, and the necessity for future research based on the findings.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui capaian kinerja makro ekonomi serta upaya internalisasi nilai-nilai pancasila dalam meningkatkan kinerja ekonomi Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui studi dokumentasi. Metode analisis data yang digunakan adalah analisis deskriptif. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan beberapa indikator makro ekonomi Indonesia menunjukkan kinerja yang positif, seperti pertumbuhan ekonomi, IPM. Sementara itu, variabel makro ekonomi yang berkinerja negatif seperti indeks daya saing global; komoditas ekspor yang didominasi oleh barang mentah serta masih impor komoditas pangan; angka kemiskinan yang kembali di posisi double digit; gini ratio yang semakin melebar. Nilai-nilai dari sistem ekonomi Pancasila yang bisa diinternalisasi dalam membangun ekonomi adalah nilai-nilai Ketuhanan, Kemanusian, Kekeluargaan, Nasionalisme, Musyawarah dan Keadilan Sosial. Penelitian ini memiliki keterbatasan diantaranya hanya melihat dampak ekonomi dari pandemi Covid 19 serta hanya mendeskripsikan kinerja beberapa variabel ekonomi makro. Adapun sumbangsih dari penelitian ini adalah dengan diketahuinya kinerja ekonomi makro Indonesia maka dapat menjadi rujukan pemerintah dalam menyusun strategi meningkatkan kinerja ekonomi.

Mechanical Alloying (MA) / Mechanical Milling (MM) is a process of processing of solid metal powders including the union and re-destruction of powder particles by using high-energy ball mill. The difference depends on whether material transfer is involved or not during processing. The study was conducted by analyzing the effect of the mechanical milling process by comparing the microstructure and mechanical properties of the copper-iron between the ones before milling (sample 1) and after milling for 2 hours (sample 2). The sample was made into a green compact cold pressing process with an emphasis system using mechanical mechanisms and dual emphasis techniques. Sintering process using continuous type machine with conveyor belt mesh and furnace type is muffle. After that cooled with natural water jacket process. Vicker hardness testing and strength testing (tensile strength test) is performed to determine the mechanical properties of copper-iron alloys that occur. The mean value of sample 1 hardness (before milling) was 39.8 HV. The mean value of sample hardness 2 (after milling) was 74.9 HV. The value of the yield strength (σ) of sample 1 is 17.597MPa, and the value of ductility (ε) is 0.119. The value of the yield strength (σ) of sample 2 is 18.547MPa, and the value of ductility (ε) is 0.073. The observation of micro structure was done to know the physiological surface of the alloy formed and to know the distribution of the composition. Observation of sample microstructure 1 shows solid phase formation ε (silver color) is an area of iron element formed with large size. Solid phase γ (orange color) is an area of copper element formed with large size. The visible elements are copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) which have a large percentage formed with large size (> 50 μm), and the pore is also large (> 50 μm). For carbon element (C), it looks gray, with a small amount. For other elements, such as zinc (Zn), phosphorus (P), and Tin (Sn), generally, they are at the grain boundary of iron (Fe) and copper (Cu) elements. Observation of sample microstructure 2 shows solid phase formation ε (silver color) showing iron area area formed with smaller size. The solid phase γ (white color) shows the copper element area formed with a smaller size. The elements seen are copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) with a small size (<50 μm), and small pores occur. From the test results and analysis showed that by shrinking the size of metal powder by milling for 2 hours can increase the hardness and yield strength of the product. Although the product becomes more brittle which is indicated by the decreased ductility value.

Sampah perkotaan ini merupakan suatu bahan yang terbuang atau dibuang sebagai hasil aktivitas manusia maupun proses alam yang belum memiliki nilai ekonomis. Pengelolaan sampah yang diselenggarakan oleh dinas terkait saat ini hanya fokus pada pengumpulan dan pengangkutan ke Tempat Pembuangan Akhir (TPA) tanpa melalui pengolahan tertentu. Akibatnya sampah hanya menumpuk di sudut-sudut kota sampah yang menumpuk saja dapat membawa dampak yang buruk pada kondisi kesehatan manusia dan lingkungan. Bila sampah dibuang secara sembarangan atau ditumpuk tanpa ada pengelolaan yang baik, akan menimbulkan berbagai dampak yang lebih serius. Terjadinya bencana (ledakan gas metan, tanah longsor, pencemaran udara akibat pembakaran terbuka dan lain-lain) merupakan akibat dari pengelolaan sampah yang belum dilaksanakan dengan baik. Oleh karena itu perlu adanya sistem penangkapan metana dan pengubahan biogas menjadi energi menawarkan salah satu alternatif bagi pengelolaan sampah terpadu untuk mengurangi dampak lingkungan sekaligus menghasilkan energi terbarukan. Studi ini diperlukan untuk dapat mengimplementasikan potensi yang ada tersebut sehingga akan berdampak positif bagi perekonomian dan lingkungan di wilayah yang distudi. Dalam hal ini penelitian dilakukan untuk TPA Burangkeng, Kabupaten Bekasi. Jawa Barat.
