Authors: Sofwan Tb
Published: December 2023

The teaching-learning process can serve as an effective solution for education during a pandemic due to the implementation of distance learning principles. E-learning is facilitated by various platforms, such as Zoom, Youtube, and Spada, to enhance the development of creative thinking abilities. There is a belief that comprehension is a crucial factor that must be present to support it. Based on this, the research aims to examine the impact of comprehension on the ability to think creatively during the learning process, as well as the influence of comprehension on the final exam through the mediation of creative thinking skills. Additionally, the study will explore the relationship between comprehension and creative thinking skills in the learning process. The research methodology employed is quantitative research, which primarily involves the statistical analysis of numerical data and also provides further insights into the questionnaire and interview data. Comprehension has a significantly positive impact on measures of creative thinking capacity; comprehension has a beneficial impact on performance in final examinations. By utilising thinking ability indicators, there is a positive correlation between creative thinking and comprehension with all indicators of creative thinking ability, resulting in an enhanced contribution to favourable learning outcomes.
THE COMPLEX PROBLEM OF EXPANDING THE CAPABILITIES OF CADASTRAL SYSTEMS AND WAYS TO SOLVE IT
Authors: Meteshkin K. , Pilicheva M. , Maslii L.
Published: December 2023

The development of cadastral systems in various countries, including Ukraine, has gone through creating information systems that serve users (stakeholders) in one of the subject areas, such as land administration, real estate construction, water resources, and others. Modern cadastral systems have no capacity to solve complex problems, and, at the same time, their structure does not contain specialised mathematical support in the form of models capable of simulating complex processes. Intelligent cadastres will be able to solve complex problems. Along with the existing types of cadastre support, intelligent cadastres should have well-structured mathematical and heuristic support. It should allow for solving private computing and service tasks, as well as loosely structured ones with a high degree of uncertainty, and provide good visualisation and detailing of objects, processes, and phenomena based on cloud and other modern information technologies. We propose introducing an intelligent cadastral system, presented as a geoinformation system with components of both a decision support system and a system for manipulating thematic layers. The decision support system should contain typical models used during the formalisation of one or another subject area or as a variant of the formal model of the subject areas’ description. The thematic layers manipulation system should allow the integration of attributive data belonging to different subject areas. In this case, ensuring prompt and fruitful work of cognitologists with experts is essential. The shortage of time and the variety of problems to be solved require the development of technology for formalising the knowledge of experts or specific subject areas. Implementing this technology and ensuring its implementation will require the creation of banks of typical knowledge models, which should store standardised procedures for formal representations. The bank of formal representations of heuristic knowledge includes procedures for forming production rules, building semantic and other networks, building frame representations and genetic algorithms, and so on. The bank of formal logical procedures contains procedures for creating logical rules based on the logic of statements, rules of logical inference based on the predicate logic, procedures of other modal logics, in particular, the presence logic, and procedures for building logical constructions based on the theory of categories and functors.
Keywords: cadastral system, geoinformation system, decision support system, thematic layer manipulation system, formalisation.
DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGY FOR TREATMENT OF WASTEWATER DIGESTAT FROM THE FOOD INDUSTRY
Authors: Shevchenko A. , Miasoiedov O. , Shevchenko T.
Published: December 2023

This article proposes a hybrid technological scheme for dewatering the digestate of wastewater from the food industry, further cleaning the obtained filtrate after dehydration with the possibility of returning it to the technological chain for reuse. At least ten different derivative products can be obtained from digestate, including liquid/solid fraction, granules obtained from both solid and liquid fractions, and analogues of commercial synthetic fertilisers: ammonium sulphate, ammonia water, magnesium ammonium phosphate (struvite).
The purpose of the experimental studies was to choose an appropriate process for treating digestate of food production wastewater to solve the problem of increasing the amount of sediment and the formation of digestate. The investigated digestate treatment processes include the next: chemical conditioning (dosing of flocculants and coagulants), mechanical dewatering using multi-disc technology (with ESMIL MDQ multi-disc screw press), two stages of membrane separation (using reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, vibrating shear process (VSEP), zwitterionic (ZI) membrane).
The cake separated after the dehydration stage can be processed in bulk or pallets with 10–35% dry matter content and used as fertiliser. Due to the high viscosity of the initial digestate, the technological scheme provides for its dilution before the dehydration stage. Dilution occurs with the purified filtrate after the membrane purification stage. The effectiveness of dehydration on cake dryness showed worse results than expected but deserves further investigation if this parameter is significant. Using an additional stage of filtrate purification on RO membranes is efficient and appropriate if high-quality purified water is required. The cleaning process can be stopped at any stage, depending on the cleaning needs.
The obtained results regarding the efficiency of the cleaning process after RO membranes showed the following values for the main pollutants: COD – 98.43%, ammonium nitrogen – 99.35%, and phosphates – 99.99%.
Keywords: digestate, sludge conditioning, coagulant, flocculent, dehydration, membrane purification, cake, permeate.
CONDUCTING A NATURAL FIRE TEST IN THE VERTICAL CABLE TUNNEL OF A NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
Authors: Troshkin S.
Published: December 2023

The article discusses conducting a full-scale fire test in the vertical cable tunnel of a nuclear power plant (NPP). Vertical cable tunnels in NPPs are used for laying cable lines, wires, safety system lines, connecting the equipment room, and the containment of the nuclear power plant block. The paper analyses research methods and selects options that will be effectively used to determine the temperature regime in the vertical cable tunnel of NPPs with known aerodynamic, technical, and geometric parameters and fire loads. The algorithm for conducting full-scale tests in the vertical cable tunnel of an NPP is described. Based on the research, the maximum temperature in the combustion zone is reached on the fourth minute of the full-scale tests in the vertical cable tunnels of nuclear power plants. By obtaining temperature graphs in the vertical cable tunnel of the NPP, it can be observed that the highest temperature is in plane D (800–900 °C), and it depends on the location of the control point. Thermal energy propagates more intensively in the direction opposite to the filling of the space, which is opposite to the exit of combustion products and ventilation openings. The temperature in plane C is in the range of 500–800 °C. Thermal energy propagates most intensively towards the filling to the exit of combustion products. This temperature significantly deviates from the standard temperature regime, which differs greatly from the full-scale experimental study of fires in the vertical cable tunnels of nuclear power plants. It can be concluded that the standard temperature regime of a fire is not adequate for testing the fire resistance of the structural elements of vertical cable tunnels in nuclear power plants. An important conclusion of these studies is the possibility of determining the fire resistance of building structures of vertical cable tunnels of NPPs with the selection of the most severe temperature regime, according to the conducted field test. It means that research results can be used in practice in designing and evaluating the safety of such objects.
Keywords: fire, natural fire tests, nuclear power plant, vertical cable tunnel.

Published: December 2023

The article addresses the pressing issue of sea freight development in Ukraine, taking into account trends in the logistics industry and the geopolitical situation, including the occupation of the Kherson region by the Russian aggressors. The article aims to identify opportunities and prospects for utilising the Kherson ports to facilitate cargo transportation after the full de-occupation of the region and to study the impact of geopolitical and logistical factors on the development of this industry. Analysis of the state of the Kherson region port infrastructure before the occupation allowed us to identify potential tasks for port modernisation by studying the infrastructure, capacities, and possibilities of the ports. An evaluation of the impact of the geopolitical situation enabled the coordination of the developed logistical routes and prospective logistic hubs in Europe and Turkey. For this purpose, we conducted an analysis of information regarding the occupation of the Kherson region and its influence on logistical flows. Logistical scenarios are in development for post-occupation of the region. The task is to create feasible logistical scenarios for cargo transportation through the Kherson ports, including proposals for the southern and Dnipro–Danube directions. As a result of the research, we formulated recommendations for using the Kherson ports as a key logistical hub for cargo transportation in Ukraine and the region after the de-occupation. The article underscores the importance of developing port infrastructure in the face of geopolitical challenges and provides practical recommendations for optimising cargo transportation through the Kherson ports. Future research may include an analysis of the development of logistical connections between the Kherson ports and other regions of Ukraine, as well as an examination of the impact of geopolitical factors on the efficiency of cargo transportation in the region. In conclusion, this article addresses the critical issue of sea freight development in Ukraine, considering the evolving trends in the logistics industry and the complex geopolitical landscape, particularly in light of the occupation of the Kherson region by the Russian aggressors. The primary objective of this research is to explore opportunities and prospects for leveraging Kherson’s ports to enhance cargo transportation following the eventual de-occupation of the region. Additionally, it aims to investigate the influence of geopolitical and logistical factors on the growth of the maritime industry.

Agricultural Activities and the Madura Salt Industry in the Late 19th Century to the 1930s
Authors: Iswahyudi
Published: December 2023

The colonial government's strong reason for continuing to pay special attention and evaluation to Madura was due to economic factors, namely the potential for large people's salt production and the potential for people's agriculture. The agrarian life for the Madurese has become a general trend, as is widely adopted in the economic system of the Indonesian people. This is evidenced by the fact that since the 17th century, Madura as a conquered area of the Mataram king Sultan Agung had the obligation to submit taxes every year in the form of one real, 10 pikul of rice and several pikul of fruit. This was corroborated by De Jonge who stated that until the next century the Madurese who still made a living as farmers included the majority of the population, namely around 70% - 80% of the total population, while the rest made a living as fishermen, even though this work actually required requirements. capital intensive. There is also the habit of the population to migrate out of the region, especially to plantation areas in Java as a workforce whose existence is clearly needed by plantation companies.

A teacher currently needs to acquire a huge amount of educational information and knowledge as part of his/her practice for the purposes of teaching, self-study, publishing, research, language support and related activities. In the academic environment, so-called learning management systems (LMSs), especially Moodle in the European Union, have proven suitable for the processing of educational content under e-Learning. LMSs usually function as online platform, at the same time as a supplement to academic information systems (AIS) on the local servers of universities. These are used by a larger number of participants, so these do not always meet the pedagogical needs of the teacher in all the activities he/she does. For example, these do not allow multilingual support, multiple searches and mass processing of e-Learning content. There are a large number of articles in the scientific literature describing the design of add-on modules for LMS. The authors offer their own approach to solving the problem of processing educational information to support a virtual team's work. As part of collaborative research in the field of technology-enhanced education and e-Learning design, the international team in the V4 EDUPORT project is implementing a personalized hybrid system on the IT infrastructure consisting of a specially designed desktop application WPad or web application (PIKS) and a common shared remote computer (virtual computer on a cloud server with Windows 2022). In this paper, the researchers share their experiences gained with their universities' academic LMSs (Moodle and AIS) and compare their personalization capabilities level to the teacher level and their use in the cloud. Part of current and future research is the development of the PIKS internet application, which operates as a multi-functional communication channel for e-Learning purposes (including use for the visually impaired).

GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE VS HUMANS IN THE PROCESS OF CREATING CORPORATE IDENTITY ELEMENTS
Authors: Osadcha Kateryna P. , Osadcha Maryna V.
Published: December 2023

The emergence of new tools, the appearance of new technologies and improvements to existing ones have resulted in expansion of generative artificial intelligence. The technologies of generative artificial intelligence have already been used by people to perform not only intellectual tasks, but also creative ones, in particular in the field of design. Therefore, their capabilities in graphic design need to be studied. One of the routine tasks of a designer is the development of corporate identity elements (a logo, font, and colour). Designers can spend a lot of time on this, choosing different style options. Therefore, delegating this routine work to generative artificial intelligence may be appropriate. With this practical need in mind, the capabilities of modern AI tools for image and logo generation were studied in the research, and the results of AI logo generation compared to the work of novice designers were analysed. As a result, conclusions were drawn about the expediency of using generative AI technology in the work of designers, in particular, for the development of corporate identity elements, and the appropriateness of studying generative artificial intelligence technology in the training of future designers. These conclusions were made on the basis of a survey of 41 experts in the field of design, information technology and artificial intelligence. Based on the findings of the survey, we can note that it was difficult for experts to distinguish between logos generated by artificial intelligence and logos created by novice designers. Logos developed by novice designers (5) were recognized as the most attractive among the 45 logos presented in the survey. Images generated in some AI tools (Tailor Brands, Hatchful) are considered attractive by design, information technology and artificial intelligence professionals. Therefore, they can be used to create corporate identity elements. Thus, the vast majority of experts agreed that artificial intelligence tools for generating images and logos should be used in the process of creating corporate identity elements. In addition, the vast majority of experts found it advisable to use generative artificial intelligence technologies in the process of professional training of future designers.

Pengendalian Kualitas Menggunakan Metode Six Sigma dan FMEA untuk Mengurangi Reject Material Preform pada Industri AMDK
Authors: Alfarizi Novyantika , Noya Sunday , Hadi Yuswono
Published: December 2023

One of the stages of bottled drinking water production at PT X is bottle making using preform material. Preform material is made from PET (Polyethylen Terphtalate). During the production process, there are preform material rejects such as broken bottles, unstable bottle thickness, white preforms, pinched bottles, and white bottles. The total preform material rejects during January to October 2022 amounted to 0.98% or there were 234,504 pcs of preform rejects from the total production of 23,905,322 bottles. The percentage of preform material rejects is above the company standard of 0.5%, so it requires Six Sigma and FMEA methods to reduce these rejects. The proposed improvement recommendations are blowing machine operation checklist form, preform specification form for suppliers, and training schedule form. However, the recommendation that was implemented was the blowing machine operation form checklist because machine malfuction was the main factor causing preform material rejects based on FMEA analysis. The recommendation was implemented for one month in November and succeeded in reducing preform material rejects by an average of 0.86% or there were preform rejects of 298,641 pcs of preforms from a total production output of 34,599.74 bottles during January to November 2022. The final calculation after the implementation of the proposed improvements shows that there is a decrease in the DPMO value from 1961.93 to 1726.26 and an increase in the sigma level value of 4.42 sigma which was previously 4.38 sigma, from this value it shows that the sigma level has increased by 0.04 sigma.

DEWAN DJAMBI SEMENTARA: MENEGOSIASIKAN ULANG KESULTANAN JAMBI MASA REVOLUSI INDONESIA 1945-1949
Authors: Kurohman M Taofik , Tangkilisan Yuda B , Abdurakhman Abdurakhman
Published: December 2023

The independence revolution in Jambi was distinct from the spirit of social revolution in other regions. A sense of disappointment among Jambi's traditional elites towards the new Republican elites from outside Jambi caused local political conflict in Jambi. Accordingly, the narrative of the restoration of the Jambi Sultanate, which had been destroyed during the Jambi War of 1900-1907, emerged. Political efforts were made between the Jambi Government and the Government of the Republic of Indonesia or the Netherlands to solve political problems in Jambi. Using historical methods that focus on the process and time, the study shows that the Dewan Djambi Sementara was a council to make Jambi a particular region in the federal system, which the Dutch established at that time. The primary demand of the Dewan Djambi Sementara was to make Jambi an autonomous region by restoring the Jambi Sultanate and separating it from the Central Sumatra Province formed by the Government of the Republic of Indonesia. However, the demands of the Dewan Djambi Sementara were not accomplished because the Dutch hesitantly supported forming a region with a feudal system. In addition, political developments between the Republic of Indonesia and the Dutch, described in the Roem-Royen agreement, hindered the process. The demands for the sultanate restoration and the granting of autonomous rights vanished along with the administrative transfer from the Netherlands to the Republic of Indonesia due to the Round Table Conference in The Hague. Despite this setback, the spirit of Jambi regionalism that demanded regional autonomy was continued in youth and regional organizations during the Republic of Indonesia era. The endeavors of these organizations eventually made an autonomous region at the provincial level in 1957

The weapon-target assignment problem has been considered as an essential issue for military applications to provide a protection for defended assets. The goal of a typical weapon-target assignment problem is to maximize the expected survivability of the valuable assets. In this study, defense of naval vessels that encounter aerial targets is considered. The vessels are assumed to have different types of weapons having various firepower and cost as well as the incoming targets may have different attack capabilities. In a typical scenario, in addition to protecting assets, it is also desirable to minimize the cost of weapons. Therefore, an asset-based static weapon-target assignment problem is considered in order to both maximize the expected survivability of the assets and minimize the weapon budget. Thus, a co-operative game theory based solution is proposed which relates the utilities of the individuals to the global utility and reach the Nash equilibrium.

Generally, the soil requires to be compacted in highway construction. The expansive soil is a special type of soil that is highly susceptible to variations in water content, which affects the degree of compaction at the same compaction energy. In the present study, a series of wet compaction tests and dry compaction tests were carried out in the laboratory. Laboratory test results show that dry compaction will produce a higher optimum water content and a higher maximum dry unit weight compared to wet compaction, because its matric suction is smaller. Field compaction tests were also conducted, the results showed that there might be a risk of under-compacting soils during construction caused by different water content change path in actual field conditions.

The occurrence of over-excavation or under-excavation in tunnel construction poses significant safety risks. Moreover, there is currently no automatic estimation method available for real-time estimation of earthwork excavation, particularly in the case of shield tunnels. In this study, we tracked the excavation process of Chengdu Metro Line 19, acquired tunneling parameters and earthwork excavation data using various sensors, and subsequently proposed an automatic estimation method that combines Bayesian optimization (BO) and gradient boosting regression tree (GBRT) algorithm. The results of our case study indicate that the BO-GBRT model improves the performance of earthwork excavation estimation, reducing the residual after each calculation with a root mean square error (RMSE) of 1.712 and mean absolute error (MAE) of 1.331. Furthermore, compared to other machine learning methods, the proposed BO-GBRT model demonstrates superior estimation performance. Additionally, the importance distribution of input parameters reveals that propulsion pressure, foam pressure, and rotation speed are the most critical factors affecting earthwork excavation. Overall, the proposed automatic estimation method shows great promise as a tool for efficiently estimating earthwork excavation in shield tunnel construction.

On September 5, 2022, a magnitude 6.8 earthquake occurred along the Xianshuihe Fault Zone in Luding County, Tibetan Plateau, China, leading to a significant outbreak of landslides. The urgent need for a swift and accurate evaluation of earthquake-induced landslides distribution in the affected area prompted this study. This research delves into regional geological data, scrutinizes post-earthquake Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) and Arias Intensity (Ia) associated with the Luding earthquake, and conducts earthquake-induced landslides risk assessments within the Luding earthquake zone using the Newmark model. Validation of the earthquake-induced landslides risk assessment outcomes rooted in PGA and Ia relies on an earthquake-induced landslides database, revealing Area Under the Curve (AUC) values of 0.73 and 0.84 in respective ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) curves. These results unequivocally affirm the exceptional accuracy of earthquake-induced landslides evaluation using Ia calculations, emphasizing its suitability for the swift prediction and evaluation of earthquake-induced landslides. The earthquake-induced landslides risk assessment based on Ia computation reveals the area with extremely high-risk and high-risk of earthquake-induced landslides encompass 0.71% of the entire study area. Notably, these areas are predominantly clustered within seismic intensity VII zones and primarily trace the Moxi fault zone, extending from the southern portion of the middle east along the Dadu River and the Moxi fault, with reach up to Dewei Township in the north and Caoke Township in the south. Hazard-prone regions predominantly align with slopes featuring gradients of 30°–45° and bear a strong correlation with fault activity. Furthermore, the results of this evaluation are harmonious with the findings from remote sensing interpretation and on-site field investigations pertaining to the earthquake-induced landslides. This body of knowledge can serve as a crucial reference for expedited assessment, emergency response and subsequent supplementation of earthquake-induced landslide databases when confronting similar earthquake-induced landslide scenarios.

In this paper, 22 indexes are selected at three levels, including the informatization development level, the Internet development level, and the digital transaction development level, based on China’s provincial panel data from 2011 to 2020, so as to build a digital economy development index system. Moreover, 28 basic indexes are selected from three aspects, including energy construction, energy production and energy consumption, so as to develop an energy economy development evaluation index system. The development index of China’s digital economy and energy economy are measured by using the entropy weight method. The effect of the digital economy on the energy economy and its mechanism are tested by the static panel, the dynamic panel, and the mediating effect and regulating effect models. The results indicate that the digital economy has pronouncedly promoted the development of China’s energy economy, and the development of the digital economy can have an effect on the rationalization of the industrial structure and then affect the development of the energy economy, and there is an intermediary effect. Moreover, the upgrading of the industrial structure is conducive to regulating the digital economy and facilitates the development of the energy economy. The development of the energy economy can be better promoted by focusing on the coordinated regional layout of the digital economy development, building a reliable energy commodity trading platform, and expediting the optimization and upgrading of the industrial structure.

Due to the problems such as fuzzy state assessment grading boundaries, the recognition accuracy is low when using traditional fuzzy techniques to grade the switchgear state. To address this problem, this paper proposes a switchgear state assessment and grading method based on deep belief network (DBN) and improved fuzzy C-means clustering (IFCM). Firstly, the switchgear state information data are processed by normalization method; then the feature parameters are extracted from the switchgear state information data by using DBN, and finally the extracted feature parameters are categorised according to the condition of switchgear equipment through clustering using IFCM. The experimental results show that the accuracy of the method in assessing the switchgear state under small sample conditions reaches 94, which exceeds the accuracy of other switchgear state assessment grading methods currently in use.

Numerous studies demonstrate a relationship between physical activity and the development of non-communicable diseases. Nurses play a crucial role in the healthcare system, and their demanding work can have an impact on their health. The objective of this cross-sectional study was to assess physical activity in relation to factors predisposing to the occurrence of specific metabolic disorders among Polish nurses. The measurements included physical activity level using ActiGraph GT3X, body weight composition using Tanita MC-980, body mass index, waist circumference, blood pressure using Welch Allyn 4200B, lipid profile, and fasting blood glucose using CardioChek PA. The results indicate that nearly one-third (31.75%) of the total sample of studied nurses do not meet the criteria for the minimum amount of physical activity of at least moderate intensity. Furthermore, over half of the surveyed nurses (55.5%) were classified as overweight or obese based on BMI, and almost half (42.86%) had abdominal obesity. The regression model, employing linear regression, revealed that factors predisposing to selected metabolic disorders were age, engaging in multiple jobs, and the number of steps per day. There is a pressing need to implement comprehensive and supportive initiatives to improve the overall health condition of nurses in Poland through increased physical activity. Activating and supporting this professional group is an investment that benefits not only the nurses themselves but also the healthcare system and the entire nation.
