Capillarity of Concrete Incorporating Waste Ceramic Powder
Authors: TANYILDIZI Muhammed
Published: March 2022

The durability of a concrete structure is directly related to its permeability. Capillary water absorption is a widely used test method to obtain information about the permeability properties of a concrete structure. This study focused on the relationship between the content of waste ceramic powder as a cement replacement material and the capillary water absorption capacity of concrete mixtures. Following this purpose, portland cement was substituted with waste ceramic powder in four different proportions of 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%. The capillary water absorption amount of each concrete mixture was measured at the end of each 5, 10, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes period. From the test results, it was seen that the capillary water absorption decreased when the cement was replaced up to 10% with waste ceramic powder, while it increased at other replacement ratios of 20% and 30% compared to the control concrete. This is attributed to the fact that waste ceramic powder can exhibit better filling properties when replaced with cement up to 10% level to reduce the capillary pores of the concrete, increase the density and impermeability of the concrete microstructure, and restrict the free movement of water through the concrete.

Published: March 2022

The article discusses the opposite views of the role of the teacher in the management of the play activity of primary schoolchildren in the Ukrainian context. A review of modern international educational trends for the development of a framework model of play and musical and play training of schoolchildren is carried out, taking into account modern educational and social conditions, destructive and accumulated relevant views of domestic methodologists are highlighted. It has been proven that the modern style of group management is characterized not so much by the leader's leadership and team qualities as by his involvement in the general dynamics of the group. In the case of managing the musical and play activities of lower schools, this requires a fundamental reorientation of the teacher. Moreover, separate management will not be effective within the classroom, including if it falls out of the general weigh with the pupil outside of school. We recognize that within the framework of the theoretical model for the effectiveness of the management of musical and play activities, the future teacher must adhere to the appropriate stages, develop an organizational and methodological matrix of the game, take into account the pedagogical conditions for the use of musical games in educational work with younger students. The international significance of the article lies in the possibility of using international experience, which is adapted to the changing conditions of post-totalitarian countries, which requires testing authoritarian approaches to the management of education in primary schools.

Published: March 2022

In the article, the authors analyze the historical and recent trends in the use of the decorative and applied artifacts as didactic tools in the development of fine arts teachers and education in general and summarize the data received for reforming the musical and pedagogical education in Ukraine. The general purpose of the study is to generalize historical, multiregional, typological approaches to the role of the decorative and applied heritage in the contemporary pedagogical education, to define its constructive and conservative role. All results were formulated in the form of brief conclusion abstracts, which are called the frame public and educational regularities related to the subject being studied. As a result of the study of the methodological literature, the educational policy documents and the fine arts teacher training traditions allowed us to outline two substantial lines for the use of tradition of the applied folk art in the development of the fine arts teachers. The first one is to form values: the awareness of the spiritual, aesthetic, accumulating, nation-building, identification, culture-preservation role of the applied folk art. The second one is to acquire practical competencies of fabrication of artifacts with one’s own hands following the traditional artistic models, or fabrication of elements of such artifacts, variations thereof, etc. The international importance of the article is determined by numerous regions, traditions, approaches and contradictions analyzed within the subject of research. This can be of interest for educational typologists, methodologists who develop new methods of interdisciplinary, cultural and artistic aspects of the future teacher development.

In this article the didactic phenomenon of gamification as a universal tool for optimizing the educational process among pupils of primary school and any other actors of the educational process is substantiated. The aim of the article is to analyze the views of present-day scholars on the leading aspects of gamification of the educational linguodidactics process, to determine the structural, methodological and psychological features of the elements of game at the lessons of English as a foreign language in primary school and to illustrate these features with fragments of the authorial experience.
Research methods are the following: theoretical analysis and generalization of scientific literature; qualitative methods of finding out the essence, features and benefits of gamification; methods of modeling and representation of ways to use elements of a game at English lessons.
The epistemological and pragmatic context of the article is determined by the digital gamified environment of the child's life and activity, which has acquired global dimensions and has affected onto all spheres of life, including education. The main ideas of the article that were proved and discussed are: a)primary school age is the most sensitive for the learning of foreign language directly in the game; b) gamification occupies one of the leading places in increasing a motivation and involvement pupils for the high level educational activity; c) with the appropriate organization and methodological support of gamified classes, it is possible to achieve effective synergy of game and innovative forms of work; d) it is possible to formulate at least 5 basic principles of gamification (actually game or those that are naturally realized during the didactic game); e) gamification is a universal methodological tool for achieving various didactic goals at any stage of a lesson.
The international significance of this article is determined by: a) the entry of gadgets, virtual and gaming reality in all areas of a human cognitive activity; b) the spread of English as the first international language in the world; c) the need for inventory, definition of functions and efficiency of a gamified educational space.
Maur jako obcy w Hiszpanii? Między swojskością a odmiennością
Authors: Biernacka Maja
Published: March 2022

Celem artykułu jest ukazanie znaczenia historycznie kształtowanej, podpartej uproszczoną wizją relacji między chrześcijaństwem i islamem dychotomii „my” i „oni” w Hiszpanii, a w dalszej kolejności odniesienie jej do życia społecznego. Pomimo coraz bardziej wielokulturowego charakteru społeczeństwa Hiszpanii i jego sekularyzacji, prowadzącej do znaczącego spadku znaczenia chrześcijaństwa oraz Kościoła rzymsko-katolickiego jako źródła moralności oraz autorytetu, dychotomia ta pozostaje żywa w życiu społecznym. W tym kontekście na uwagę zasługuje zwłaszcza postrzeganie dziedzictwa islamu w kształtowaniu tożsamości mieszkańców kraju. Szczegółowym zamierzeniem artykułu jest próba systematyzacji wypowiedzi na ten temat na podstawie częściowo ustrukturyzowanych wywiadów, prowadzonych przeze mnie corocznie w Hiszpanii w latach 2010–2016. Na podstawie uzyskanego materiału wyodrębniam trzy robocze grupy stosunku wobec dziedzictwa islamu z odniesieniem do własnej tożsamości respondentów. Systematyzacja ta, a ponadto powiązanie stosunku do przeszłości z kwestiami tożsamościowymi stanowić mogą przyczynek do stawiania hipotez w szerzej zakrojonych badaniach empirycznych, zarówno w Hiszpanii, jak i w innych społeczeństwach, gdzie miały miejsce wielowiekowe procesy wypierania z pamięci zbiorowej znaczącego przez wieki wyznania lub rysu cywilizacyjnego.

Improving application systems for bioprotectants in integrated pest management (IPM) programmes in horticulture
Authors:   Silsoe Spray Applications Unit Ltd, UK, Butler Ellis Clare
Published: March 2022

The fundamental principles of good application are the same whether a biopesticide or chemical pesticide is being used. However, there is a view that biopesticides are more sensitive to application. A good application technique should result in the minimum amount of biopesticide being used, which requires that the dose is delivered to the right location at the right time and in the right form. This chapter discusses the factors that are important in achieving this. The chapter concludes that calibration is important and automation should bring benefits. The biopesticide mode of action, the pest or disease and the crop structure are important to understand. Without this, growers will continue to try to visibly cover every part of the plant with spray resulting in high levels of waste and poorer control than optimum. More research on the interaction between performance and application is needed to enable the principles of IPM to be implemented.
Advances in proximal sensors to detect crop health status in horticultural crops
Authors:   CREA – Research Centre for Vegetable and Ornamental Crops, Italy, Pane Catello
Published: March 2022

Advances in proximal sensing for targeted application of bioprotectants and biopesticides are crucial for more sustainable horticultural crop disease management. These technologies can help to identify spatial/temporal patterns of disease and provide data for forecasting models. They rely on optoelectronic devices which capture reflected and/or emitted energy from plants, using imaging and/or non-imaging technologies for rapid, non-destructive and contactless diagnosis of disease symptoms. This chapter discusses hyperspectral, multispectral and RGB sensors, thermographic and chlorophyll fluorescence probes. The chapter also discusses about the application of sensors detecting micro-environmental parameters linked to the pathogen lifecycles, which can then be used to predict disease risk.

IPM promotes the design of resilient systems that reduce both pest attacks and damage to cultivated plants. It is based on practices that foster plant tolerance and the control of pests by their natural enemies. The challenge is to combine those practices in a coherent system that should associate the benefits or even develop synergies among their identified partial effects and that should be operable for the farmer. The IPM practices considered in this chapter are related to a) the crop and its annual management; b) the enhancement of plant diversity in the cropping system at the field scale using companion plants and intercropping, as well as diversification with other cash crops. The chapter also provides c) some insights on the design of cropping systems that combine the above-mentioned IPM practices at field, farm and agrifood system scales. It also shows that designing such systems calls for additional research and new approaches.
Advancing conservation biological control as a component of integrated pest management of horticultural crops
Authors:   University of Reading, UK, Girling Robbie D. , Breeze Tom D. ,   University of Reading, UK, Garratt Michael P. ,   University of Reading, UK
Published: March 2022

Conservation biological control is commonly considered to be a key component of IPM because it is compatible with and complementary to many other approaches available in the IPM ‘toolbox’. However, despite significant study of conservation biological approaches in horticultural systems, uptake has been limited. Furthermore, whilst there are many studies that provide examples of positive implementations, there are as many studies in which the evidence for benefits to pest control is either inconsistent or absent. We suggest that careful consideration needs to be given to the scale at which studies of conservation biological control are conducted (both spatial and temporal) and the metrics that are recorded. To-date there has been a bias towards ecological studies, with relatively scant consideration of the economic impacts of conservation biological control measures. We propose a framework for the future study of conservation biological control approaches, which centres around economic costs and benefits.
Blockmodeling for analysis of social structures: theoretical and methodological foundations
Authors: Shcheglova Tamara , Maltseva Daria , Kim Aryuna
Published: March 2022

The article discusses the features of blockmodeling as a class of methods for clustering network data in the analysis of social structures. Blockmodeling is considered as an approach to the analysis of social structure, which combines network components into groups (clusters) based on their equivalent structural positions. The basic concepts of blockmodeling are described – matrix, matrix image, cluster, clustering, position, block, blockmodel; an illustrating example is given. The concept of equivalence is presented, and two types of equivalence, structural and regular, are described. The main approaches of blockmodeling – indirect and direct – and related methods and algorithms are presented. For each approach, examples of the practical application in social sciences are provided. Other methods of blockmodeling (stochastic blockmodeling) and similar methods of subgroups detection in networks are mentioned. It is shown that the methodology of blockmodeling has heuristic potential for analyzing social structures and is promising for identifying cohesive groups and determining the role and structural positions of individuals within them. In conclusion, the open questions and limitations of this research methodology are discussed.
Methodological aspects of generational differentiation: on the example of determining nutritional attitudes of Russian millennials
Authors: Tkachenko Evgenii
Published: March 2022

The article is devoted to the description of the original method of generational differences analysis. This method is called the maximum differentiation scheme. With the help of the scheme we investigated unique trends in the millennial generation (born 1982–2000), which were observed neither in the entire sample nor in the other two generations for three types of data collection methods (cross-sectional analysis, analysis of temporal changes and long-term analysis). To satisfy the mechanics of the scheme, in addition to millennials, the Soviet generation (born 1947–1967) and the reform generation (born 1968–1981) were used for systematic comparisons. The research was conducted using data from the Russian Target Group Index. Thanks to the scheme, the author showed that only the statement “I prefer vegetarian food” can be considered a truly characteristic attitude of millennials. However, the scheme has two important limitations: 1) it is not sensitive to trends that are not unique to a particular generation; 2) the scheme cannot be used as the only type of analysis and needs additional methodological procedures. Taking into account these limitations, the maximum differentiation scheme can be useful both as a unique type of preliminary analysis of generational differences, and included in a broader approach to working with age and period effects.
Studying the dynamics of labor protests: the experience of using linear approximation method
Authors: Bizyukov Petr , Burnysheva Tatyana
Published: March 2022

In article we propose a method for the analysis of long time series data of the Monitoring of Labor Protests. This database has been accumulating data on labor protests in Russia since 2008. During 156 months data were collected on 3,951 protests by Russian workers. The article describes the need to control labor protests, the features of the current legal regulation of labor conflicts. The peculiarity of the Russian situation is that the state bodies register only “legal” strikes, ignoring the numerous protest actions of workers undertaken in other forms. Therefore, it is necessary to study their dynamics in order to identify trends that are not visible using conventional analysis. The main difficulty in identifying trends is the high variability of the source data. The article proposes a method for smoothing data and the rate of change of the smoothed function at each point, which makes it possible to find criteria for determining periods of growth and decline in the protest indicator. This makes it possible to calculate periods, their duration, intensity, average rate of growth or decline. In addition to analyzing the overall dynamics, the proposed method allows to study subsamples, for example, of different sectors, and compare them obtaining comparable estimates. The article compares three sectors – industry, transport and healthcare – that accounted for 75% of all protest actions of workers in 2020.

Cognitive-pragmatic programs theory intentional aspect: General provisions (Article 1)
Authors:   Xi’an International Studies University, Ivanov Dmitry I. , Lakerbai Dmitry L. ,   Ivanovo State University
Published: March 2022

The article offers a conceptual understanding of the intentional aspect of the original author's theory of cognitive-pragmatic programs (CPP). The article investigates the intentional parameters of the transition of the CPP generator (subject-source) to purposeful activity that is embraced as a “text” in the space of his cognitive consciousness. It is noted that in the context of the CPP theory, the concept of intentionality gets its own actualization. Intentionality is a specific orientation of the volitional and psychoemotional aspirations of the subject-source (generator of the CPP) / subject-interpreter. This orientation is realized as an intention that generates an intention and received the form of a signal. The concept of “signal” at the stage of the formation of the CPP acts as an externally manifested informative incentive to a certain (textual) activity. There is a zone of the potential transition of the intention into the signal with its subsequent realization in one or another semiotic form between the intention and the signal (the realized intention). The condition for this transition is a stimulus-impulse. Based on the specifics of the impulse-stimulus, the intention has three forms of realization, and as a result, three types of signal are possible: signal (–) — complete formal absence of a signal or complete discrepancy between the conceptual and semantic content of the signal and intention; signal (+/–) — partial compliance with intention; signal (+) — complete conceptual and semantic correspondence with intention. The specificity of the internal structure of the signal is genetically related to understanding the intentional state essence (model: I = S(p)). The CPP theory assumes S (psychological state) as the mental component of the signal S1(m), and Р is the conceptual-pragmatic («pre-ideological») component of the signal S1(c – p). Signal formula in the CPP theory context: S1 = S1(m) + S1(c – p). S1 is a conceptual and pragmatic materialization of the programmed mental-volitional aspirations of the subject-source. The general initial idea of “direction — motive — intention” leads to the conceptualization of the resultant system “intention — signal — discourse”.
Formation of a literary norm as a result of mixing variations in oral and written speech
Authors:   National University of Architecture and Construction of Armenia, Madoyan Vagharshak V.
Published: March 2022

In linguistics, the hypothesis of the gradual and sequential development of languages during the history of existence throughout the entire territory of distribution was fixed, as a result of which the formation of a literary language occurs. The author, considering the history of the norms of the Russian and Armenian languages, shows that these norms are formed as a result of mixing dialects, and the development of styles that accompanies the formation of the literary language is the result of the interpenetration of variations in written and spoken language.
Gratitude and empathy transfer (Persian-Russian parallels)
Authors:   Allameh Tabataba’i University, Moradi Maryam , Shafaghi Maryam , Goryachkovskaya Tatiana ,   Moscow State Linguistic University
Published: March 2022

The subject of this scientific article is the study of empathy as a phenomenon of sincerity and politeness in the Russian and Persian linguocultural environments. The manifestation of such empathy towards the addressee can be transmitted verbally through the speech act of gratitude. Gratitude-empathy is formed with the help of speech acts of wish, request-supplication / request-oath and influences: compliment and praise. She expresses empathy and sincere attitude towards the addressee of the speech. In addition, the Iranian ceremony is characteristic of the Persian linguocultural environment, more precisely the Iranian taarof as the realities of the jinzi of Iranians, which is absent in the cultural life of other peoples, including Russians.

The article is devoted to the history of the formation of the Russian youth social dialect. Despite a large number of research on youth slang speech, there are issues related to the history, the nature of the youth social dialect, its functions, sociolinguistic portraits of its bearers remain unsolved. Among the representatives of the existing social types of the XIX century — pupils of closed educational institutions, active carriers and creators of schoolish language (seminarians, cadets, gymnasium students, students, schoolgirls, lyceum students). The author of the article has given a sociolinguistic portrait of the pupils of the institutes of noble maidens, the sociocultural conditions for the formation of institutional jargon are shown and characteristic features are described: emotionality, naivete, the interweaving of enthusiastic vocabulary with disapproval, the spread of diminutive forms, the influence of the French language, a wealth of word-formation opportunities. The closed nature of the institutions, the atmosphere reigning in them, the moral spirit, the forms of leisure — all this left an imprint on the peculiarities of the speech communication of the pupils, the composition of the existing vocabulary. The results of the study are illustrated by rich linguistic material, among sources of which an important place is occupied by rare memoir sources, recollections of pupils of the institutes of noble maidens. Artistic memoirs fix popular words and expressions from the past in certain schools, and also provide objectivity and scientific weight of conclusions about the composition and functioning of jargons of various student corporations of pre-revolutionary Russia. The language of the pupils of the Institute of Noble Maidens gives an idea of their subculture, reveals the secrets of word-creation of the female community.
Higher education capitalism in Indonesia as a social problem: A case study in the digital age
Authors: Singgih Doddy Sumbodo , Suyanto Bagong , Ariadi Septi
Published: March 2022

Since the Indonesian state entered the reform era in 1998, several state universities that were centers of scientific development had their legal status changed by the government to become State-Owned Legal Entity University. From a sociological perspective, changes in legal status are commonly understood as institutional changes, which include changes in the norms that refer to governance, changes in governance procedures, and changes in organizational structure and governance. Some of the State Universities that have changed their legal status (institutions) are the Universitas Indonesia (UI), Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB), Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU), Universitas Pendididikan Indonesia (UPI), and Universitas Airlangga (UNAIR). This article will describe whether, in today’s digital era, these changes cause social problems of their own, especially social problems related to inter-structural relationships in academic activities on campus. This study employed Mixed Methods Research and 100 students as a sample of this study. The results found the fact that most of the student respondents (55.42%) considered that social problems that arise in State-Owned Legal Entity University were related to the capitalism of higher education. This research also found the impact of institutional changes being State-Owned Legal Entity University is a change in the inter-structural relationship among the academic community in carrying out academic activities to become exploitative, hegemonic, and repressive. Therefore these changes in an inter-structural relationship were also considered as a social problem.

Determination of Material Properties of Basketball. Finite Element Modeling of the Basketball Bounce Height
Authors: Makowski Andrzej
Published: March 2022

This paper presents a method to determine material constants of a standard basketball shell together with the development of a virtual numerical model of a basketball. Material constants were used as the basis for the hyperelastic material model in the strain energy function (SEF). Material properties were determined experimentally by strength testing in uniaxial tensile tests. Additionally, the digital image correlation technique (DIC) was applied to measure strain in axial planar specimens, thus providing input stress-strain data for the Autodesk software. Analysis of testing results facilitated the construction of a hyperelastic material model. The optimal Ogden material model was selected. Two computer programmes by Autodesk were used to construct the geometry of the virtual basketball model and to conduct simulation experiments. Geometry was designed using Autodesk Inventor Professional 2017, while Autodesk Simulation Mechanical 2017 was applied in simulation experiments. Simulation calculations of the model basketball bounce values were verified according to the FIBA recommendations. These recommendations refer to the conditions and parameters which should be met by an actual basketball. A comparison of experimental testing and digital calculation results provided insight into the application of numerical calculations, designing of structural and material solutions for sports floors.
Memory Enhancement with Kynurenic Acid and its Mechanisms in Neurotransmission
Authors: Martos Diána , Tuka Bernadett , Tanaka Masaru , Vécsei László , Telegdy Gyula
Published: March 2022

Kynurenic acid (KYNA) is an endogenous tryptophan (Trp) metabolite known to possess neuroprotective property. KYNA plays critical roles in nociception, neurodegeneration, and neuroinflammation. A lower level of KYNA is observed in patients with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases or psychiatric disorders such as depression and autism spectrum disorders, whereas a higher level of KYNA is associated with the pathogenesis of schizophrenia. Little is known about the optimal concentration for neuroprotection and the threshold for neurotoxicity. In this study the effects of KYNA on memory functions were investigated by passive avoidance test in mice. Six different doses of KYNA were administered intracerebroventricularly to previously trained CFLP mice and they were observed following 24 hours. High doses of KYNA (i.e., 20-40 μg/2 μl) significantly decreased the avoidance latency, whereas a low dose of KYNA (0.5 μg/2 μl) significantly elevated it compared with controls, suggesting that the low dose of KYNA enhanced memory function. Furthermore, six different receptor blockers were applied to reveal the mechanisms underlying the memory enhancement induced by KYNA. The series of tests revealed the possible involvement of the serotonergic, dopaminergic, α and β adrenergic, and opiate systems in the nootropic effect. The study confirmed that a low dose of KYNA improved a memory component of cognitive domain, which was mediated by, at least in part, four systems of neurotransmission in an animal model of learning and memory.
Plagiarism Detection in the Bengali Language: A Text Similarity-Based Approach
Authors: Ghosh Satyajit , Ghosh Aniruddha , Ghosh Bittaswer , Roy Abhishek
Published: March 2022

Plagiarism means taking another person’s work and not giving any credit to them for it. Plagiarism is one of the most serious problems in academia and among researchers. Even though there are multiple tools available to detect plagiarism in a document but most of them are domain-specific and designed to work in English texts, but plagiarism is not limited to a single language only. Bengali is the most widely spoken language of Bangladesh and the second most spoken language in India with 300 million native speakers and 37 million second-language speakers. Plagiarism detection requires a large corpus for comparison. Bengali Literature has a history of 1300 years. Hence most Bengali Literature books are not yet digitalized properly. As there was no such corpus present for our purpose so we have collected Bengali Literature books from the National Digital Library of India and with a comprehensive methodology extracted texts from it and constructed our corpus. Our experimental results find out average accuracy between 72.10 % - 79.89 % in text extraction using OCR. Levenshtein Distance algorithm is used for determining Plagiarism. We have built a web application for end-user and successfully tested it for Plagiarism detection in Bengali texts. In future, we aim to construct a corpus with more books for more accurate detection.

Authors: Huan Yuke , Song Lei , Khan Umair , Zhang Baoyi
Published: March 2022

The current study aims to apply and compare the performance of six machine learning algorithms, including three basic classifiers: random forest (RF), gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT), and extreme gradient boosting (XGB), as well as their hybrid classifiers, using the logistic regression (LR) method (RF+LR, GBDT+LR, and XGB+LR), in order to map the landslide susceptibility of Zhangjiajie City, Hunan Province, China. First, a landslide inventory map was created with 206 historical landslide points and 412 non-landslide points, which was randomly divided into two datasets for model training (80%) and model testing (20%). Second, 15 landslide conditioning factors (i.e., altitude, slope, aspect, plane curvature, profile curvature, relief, roughness, rainfall, topographic wetness index (TWI), normalized difference vegetative index (NDVI), distance to roads, distance to rivers, land use/land cover (LULC), soil texture, and lithology) were initially selected to establish a landslide factor database. Thereafter, the multicollinearity test and information gain ratio (IGR) technique were applied to rank the importance of the factors. Subsequently, we used a series of metrics (e.g., accuracy, precision, recall, f-measure, area under the ROC (receiver operating characteristic) curve (AUC), kappa index, mean absolute error (MAE), and root mean square error (RMSE)) to evaluate the accuracy and performance of the six models. Based on the AUC values derived from the models, the GBDT+LR model with the highest AUC value (0.8168) was identified as the most efficient model for mapping landslide susceptibility, followed by the XGB+LR, XGB, RF+LR, GBDT, and RF models, which achieved AUC values of 0.8124, 0.8118, 0.8060, 0.7927, and 0.7883, respectively. The results from this study suggest that the stacking ensemble machine learning method is promising for use in landslide susceptibility mapping in the Zhangjiajie area and is capable of targeting the areas prone to landslides.

Published: March 2022

The level of industry dependence on imported goods is still very high while logistics costs in Indonesia reach 24 % of total GDP. Therefore, the need for bonded warehouses to improve logistics management inefficiencies. Bonded warehouse according to PMK RI No. 155/PMK.04/2019 is a Bonded Stockpiling Place (TPB) for stockpiling imported goods, may be accompanied by 1 (one) or more activities in the form of packaging/repackaging, sorting,kitting, packing, setting, cutting, for goods certain goods within a certain period of time to be reissued. The advantages of implementing this bonded warehouse are minimizing the distance between business actors and raw materials so as to reduce dwelling time, make the price of raw materials and production more affordable, obtain exemption or deferral facilities from import duties, excise and taxes. However, some areas with great potential do not have bonded warehouses such as Makassar New Port. The analysis of this study is to compare the logistics costs of importing sugar from Thailand with a bonded warehouse in Tanjung Priok with the implementation of a bonded warehouse in Makassar New Port, which can save costs of Rp. 11,062,648,783. So that the placement of a bonded warehouse in Makassar New Port is the right solution.

In the Surabaya City Spatial Plan for 2014-2030, the Kenjeran Beach area which is included in the Tambak Wedi is a marine tourism area. In recent years, the condition of the Kenjeran Beach area has experienced a decline in tourists. Given that, for several years there have been no significant changes in the development of the Kenjeran Beach area. For Kenjeran tourism to be more optimally developed, it is necessary to integrate and integrate many objects and tourist attractions in one area. The method used is the descriptive qualitative method. The results of the study describe the potential of the Kenjeran coastal area and then several policies that have been carried out by the government to develop the Kenjeran coastal area along with several impacts or conflicts on the local community. The cable car development policy for Kenjeran coastal tourism is very beneficial for the lives of coastal communities in the tourism sector and the economic life of the local community. However, the development only knocked down three fishing posts, which disturbed the people who had previously supported them. Although in the end the three posts were rebuilt in making policies, it is necessary to pay attention to no more losses on the one hand. Furthermore, the Bulak Fish Center policy whose impact is very beneficial for the survival of the Kenjeran coastal community because it is a form of livelihood so economic growth is very rapid. There are still many efforts that can be made for the implementation of policies on the Kenjeran coastal area to be more developed, but in that case, it needs to be analyzed again so that the policy is implemented properly.

Kota Surakarta memiliki banyak kampung tematik yang berpotensi membentuk wisata kampung tematik. Jayengan Kampung Permata (JKP) merupakan salah kampung tematik yang berada dalam tahap pengembangan dari tujuh kampung tematik di Kota Surakarta. Pengembangan JKP memerlukan pelibatan dari banyak pihak dan kebijakan. Pihak dan kebijakan yang disusun harus diintegrasikan dengan JKP supaya bisa berkembang secara optimal sebagai wisata kampung tematik. Integrasi obyek daya tarik wisata adalah konsep totalitas produk wisata yang saling terkait untuk meningkatkan daya saing tiap klaster pariwisata, sehingga terjadi aglomerasi ekonomi serta memudahkan promosi pariwisata. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis integrasi antara komponen wisata JKP sebagai kampung tematik dengan wisata kampung tematik yang ada di Surakarta. Integrasi komponen pariwisata JKP dengan wisata kampung tematik dilihat dari sisi dukungan kelembagaan, atraksi pariwisata, fasilitas pariwisata, aksesibilitas, dan keterlibatan masyarakat lokal. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan penelitian deduktif, penelitian kuantitatif, teknik analisis skoring, dan metode perbandingan berpasangan, JKP dikatakan terintegrasi apabila mendapatkan total skor satu (1) dan dikatakan tidak terintegrasi apabila mendapatkan skor kurang dari 1  dari seluruh komponen yang diteliti. Hasil yang didapat dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa JKP tidak terintegrasi dengan wisata kampung tematik di Kota Surakarta karena mendapat total skor kurang dari 1. Skor kurang dari satu ini diperoleh  karena komponen yang tidak terintegrasi lebih dominan, yaitu dukungan kelembagaan, fasilitas pariwisata, dan aksesibilitas.
