The increasing population has resulted in a significant increase in the amount of waste. One effort that can be made to overcome the waste problem is to provide a Temporary Waste Disposal Site (TWDS). This research aims to optimize the TWDS in the Bukit Kecil sub-district, Palembang city, by formulating a Robust-Set Covering Problem (Robust-SCP) model and solving the model with the software. Sensitivity analysis is used to analyze the optimal solution. Bukit Kecil sub-district is the sub-district that has the highest number of TWDS in Palembang city. The robust-SCP model obtained 10 optimal TWDS. Therefore, this research recommends the Robust SCP model as the optimal solution for the determination of TWDS in the Bukit Kecil sub-district, namely TWDS Kartini Street, TWDS front of Starbucks KI Street, TWDS Merdeka Street, TWDS Illegal at 26 Ilir Market, TWDS Flat Block 35, TWDS Flat Block 49, TWDS Merdeka Women’s Prison, TWDS Musi Riverbank Park, TWDS Monpera, and TWDS Cinde Market, with the addition of TWDS Mayor’s Office in 22 Ilir village and TWDS Flat Block 01 in 23 Ilir village. The sensitivity analysis results in this study show that the solution remains optimal if the coefficient change is within the coefficient interval value.
Results on Toeplitz Determinants for Subclasses of Analytic Functions Associated to q-Derivative Operator
Authors: Nurali Nurdiana Binti , Janteng Aini
Published: April 2024

An analytic function, also known as a holomorphic function, is a complex-valued function that is differentiable at every point within a given domain. In other words, a function f (z) is analytic in a domain U if it has a derivative f′(z) at every point z in U. Let A represent the set of functions f that are analytic within the open unit disk D = {z ∈ ℂ : |z| < 1}. These functions possess a normalized Taylor-Maclaurin series expansion written in the form f (z) = z + Í∞ n=2 an z n where an ∈ ℂ, n = 2, 3, . . .. In recent years, the field of q-calculus has gained significant attention and research interest among mathematicians. The applications of this field are broadly applied in numerous subdivisions of physics and mathematics. In this research, we assume that S∗q and ℝq are subclasses of analytic functions obtained by applying the q-derivative operator. The objective of this paper is to obtain estimates for coefficient inequalities and Toeplitz determinants whose elements are the coefficients an for f ∈ S∗q and f ∈ Rq .

Published: April 2024

Utilizing carbon materials derived from natural biomass holds significant promise for battery applications, owing to their low cost, abundant availability, and environmentally sustainable characteristics. However, graphite anode materials do not meet the demands of efficient batteries. Coconut shell waste has the potential to be used as activated carbon in energy storage anodes. By adding silicon dioxide (SiO2) to maintain structural stability and electrochemical reaction kinetics, the advantages of CCS can be maximized. Polyacrylonitrile/polyvinylidene fluoride (PAN/PVDF) composite polymer was used as a matrix to embed CCS/SiO2 and synthesize nanofibers via electrospinning. The resulting nanofibers had diameters ranging from to 575–707 nm, with cross-linked, porous, and beadless characteristics. Mechanical properties were measured by single-fiber micro tensile tests. The young modulus, tensile strength, and toughness of each nanofiber were successfully maintained at 13.7 ± 0.4 MPa, 34.4 ± 0.1 MPa, and 982 ± 10 kJ/m3, respectively, because of the presence of a β-crystal growth layer that facilitated efficient stress transmission. The reduction-oxidation process response had a potential difference of less than 1.286 V in the first cycle, whereas for the third and fifth cycles, it was maintained below 3.416 V. The lithium-ion diffusion coefficient was below 4.73×1013 cm2/s. Using the anode directly, as in lithium-ion batteries, provided a high capacity of 382 mAh/g after 200 cycles. Good cycle stability, with over 98% retention of the initial capacitance after 200 charge/discharge cycles, underscores its potential for application in lithium-ion batteries.

Layered Double Hydroxide (LDH)-derived materials exhibited different characteristics from LDH precursors. The conversion of ZnAl LDH into its derivative material has been carried out to find the best catalyst for TC degradation. ZnAl (LDH)-based catalysts in this study have been effectively synthesized using coprecipitation, calcination, and restacking procedures. ZnAl Layered Double Oxide (LDO) is derived from the calcination of ZnAl LDH at 500°C. ZnAl LDH was also modified by adding Garcinia mangostana pericarp extract (GME). XRD, FT-IR, UV-DRS, and SEM-EDX were used to investigate the synthesized catalyst. ZnAl LDH exhibited the typical LDH FT-IR spectra, whereas ZnAl LDO showed metal oxide-like spectra, and the ZnAl-GME composite displayed the combination spectra of precursor material. The ZnAl LDH XRD diffraction pattern exhibited the attributes of a layered material, whereas the other three catalysts did not. Calcination destroyed the layered structure of ZnAl LDH, whereas the addition of GME to LDH and LDO generated a single-layered composite. The modified ZnAl-GME composite showed a decrease in both particle size and bandgap energy. At an ideal pH of 5, the synthesized catalyst was used in a batch system photodegradation of 5 mg/L Tetracycline (TC), employing solar light irradiation. ZnAl LDO holds the most significant catalytic activity and structural stability through the fifth regeneration cycle, degraded TC up to 100% in 90 minutes.

Published: April 2024

Stress is a condition that triggers a change in behavior and physiological state, affecting mental health. Beta-Ionone is a monocyclic terpenoid compound that can lower stress levels. However, there is a lack of studies about the anti-stress capability of Beta-Ionone inhalation, although Beta-Ionone is commonly used as a fragrance in perfumes. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Beta-Ionone addition as the fragrance in perfumes on mice stress. The Beta-Ionone perfume was formulated with Bergamot Oil, Lavender Oil, Eucalyptus Oil, Tea Tree Oil, and Patchouli Oil to produce Fem, Fem-Ion (Fem + Beta-Ionone), Masc, and Masc-Ion (Fem + Beta-Ionone), which had different preferable odors. The anti-stress effectivity was then evaluated in stress induced mice, which were restrained for one hour every day for one week. The perfumes were then given by inhalation every alternate day. The stress level of the mice was evaluated using a tail suspension test and serum cortisol level assays. The results showed that inhalation of the perfumes lowered the immobility time of mice in the tail suspension test, albeit the addition of Beta Ionone did not give a significant difference. Based on the results of serum cortisol level, there was a substantial decrease in serum cortisol by inhaling the Fem and Fem-Ion, showing decreases in stress level. However, there were increases in serum cortisol levels for Masc and Masc-Ion, indicating stress induction, which was suggested to be caused by 1,8-cineole, a compound in the Eucalyptus oil as the perfume oil components.

Published: April 2024

Quercetin is a drug candidate with bioavailability but currently limited, necessitating the use of a delivery matrix, such as Santa Barbara Amorphous-15 (SBA-15). Rice husk ash, containing a significant amount of silica, served as a precursor in the synthesis of SBA-15, which can be functionalized with nanoparticles, including zinc, using sonochemical methods. Therefore, this study aimed to synthesize Zn/SBA-15 using sonochemistry and evaluate the potential as a drug delivery matrix for quercetin. SBA-15 was formed by sonication of a sodium silicate from rice husk and pore director Pluronic P-123, followed by impregnating Zn at 2%, 4%, and 6% w/w. The characterization of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and fluorescence (XRF) showed a broad peak at 2theta 18-30◦ with Zn levels of 1.89%, 3.69%, and 5.06%. Furthermore, the analysis of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed the presence of Zn nanoparticles with a range size of 4-14 nm. In vitro drug delivery experiments were carried out using Zn/SBA-15 at concentrations of 1:1 and 1:2 to quercetin. The in vitro test results for a drug loading of quercetin with Zn/SBA-15 6% 1:1 was 28.30 mg/g. The encapsulation efficiency was 10.96% and the drug release reached 33.64% after 240 minutes.

Authors: Castro Janio Roque Barrros de
Published: April 2024

A natureza é interpretada de diferentes formas por uma diversidade de coletivos sociais. As matas, os rios, as cavernas e as formas do relevo, por exemplo, podem ser considerados como moradas de divindades e, por isso, serem altamente relevantes para a vida de alguns coletivos etnográficos, como os indígenas. A sacralização da natureza se estende também por coletivos sociais não indígenas que reinterpretam o conteúdo discursivo oficial de algumas religiões hegemônicas e criam, na dimensão das práticas populares, suas próprias narrativas “lugarizadas” no contexto das vivências/experiências com diferentes elementos e formas espaciais. No presente texto, objetiva-se analisar a sacralização de elementos da natureza e as dimensões míticas das práticas devocionais em grutas e morros no território baiano, com especial ênfase aos santuários católicos localizados nos municípios de Bom Jesus da Lapa, Milagres e Monte Santo. Do ponto de vista teórico-metodológico a pesquisa está assentada nas abordagens da Geografia Humanista e Cultural e suas interfaces dialógicas com as Ciências Sociais, dimensionadas nas leituras das especificidades locais/regionais das cidades-santuários que se constituem o recorte espacial deste trabalho acadêmico, que revelou importantes interações etnográficas no contexto das práticas religiosas relacionadas à natureza e às singularidades de algumas narrativas míticas.

Published: April 2024

A cadeia produtiva da piscicultura em Mato Grosso carece de mão de obra qualificada, assistência técnica e análise de custos de produção. Pensando nisso, para contribuir com conhecimento sobre o perfil produtivo e rendimento associados aos produtos, como forma de reconhecer e melhorar a atividade, este trabalho tem como objetivo caracterizar a piscicultura no município de Cáceres, no estado de Mato Grosso. Para isso, adotou-se uma abordagem quali-quantitativa descritiva, por meio de dados obtidos do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística, no período de 2013 a 2019 e pelo Instituto de Defesa Agropecuária de Mato Grosso. Foram registrados 54 empreendimentos de piscicultura, no ano de 2019 (24,3% das pisciculturas da região pantaneira). A piscicultura em Cáceres é desenvolvida em sistemas extensivo (20%), superintensivo (20%) e semi-intensivo (60%). Sua produção ocorre em viveiros escavados, sendo utilizados como fontes de água, nos sistemas semi-intensivo, nascentes (20%), poço (20%) e água de chuva (20%), e nos demais água de ambientes lóticos da região. A produção decresceu 80,37% no período de 2013 a 2016, e com crescimento nos anos seguintes, entre os anos de 2016 a 2019, em 182%. O tambacu/tambatinga e tambaqui são os principais peixes cultivados no pantanal, representando 57,75% do total das espécies produzidas. O valor da produção da piscicultura estava em alta no ano de 2013 (3,44 milhões de reais), e queda nos anos seguintes, com 1,90 milhões de reais em 2019. De acordo com esses resultados, a piscicultura em Cáceres destaca-se como uma atividade de potencial geradora de renda, podendo ser mais bem explorada a partir da adoção de práticas de manejo eficientes dos empreendimentos, como tratamentos dos efluentes e diversificação dos sistemas produtivos. É importante destacar que a atividade de piscicultura não deve ser uma substituição da pesca artesanal na região, a qual é fruto de uma cultura regional. Assim, a piscicultura deve ser pensada de forma sustentável sem prejudicar outras atividades.

Pekarangan Pangan Lestari (P2L) is a program that is carried out jointly by community groups by seeking to use unproductive yards or vacant land as a place for planting. In achieving the goals of P2L there needs to be a communication process carried out by agricultural extension workers to KWT members. An indicator of the effectiveness of communication in a program is Source Credibility (source credibility), the message, and the message recipient. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the message and the credibility of the communicator affecting the communication effectiveness of the Pekarangan Pangan Lestari (P2L) program. The basic method used is descriptive quantitative with survey techniques. Samples were taken from purposive random sampling with a total of 65 respondents. Data analysis used Multiple Linear Regression. The results showed that the effectiveness of the message and the credibility of the communicator had a significant effect on the Pekarangan Pangan Letsrai (P2L) program with a significant value of <α (0.05). This shows that the effectiveness of communication in the Pekarangan Pangan Lestari (P2L) is influenced by two variables, namely the effectiveness of the message and the credibility of the communicator.

This study examines and analyses the impact of pressure, opportunity, rationalization, capability, ego, and collusion on financial statement fraud. Testing of the whistleblowing system variable is a moderating variable in the relationship between the fraud hexagon theory variable and financial statement fraud. Purposive sampling resulted in a total of 120 observation data. Data was collected from annual and sustainability reports from 68 state-owned enterprises on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in 2019-2022. The data were processed and analyzed using WarpPLS 7.0 software. This research confirms that WBS can reduce the link between pressure and FSF and that pressure directly affects FSF. Any other variables cannot directly or indirectly influence financial statement fraud. The novelty of this research is the whistleblower system variable, which moderates the association between financial statement fraud and the factors of the fraud hexagon theory.

Published: April 2024

The purpose of the study was to establish the growth patterns of 57-year-old Siberian larch and lanceolate ash in anti-erosion forest strips. Plantings were studied by methods of forest taxation according to OST 56‑69‑83 and the textbook S-PB of the Forestry University. Private methods of K.K. Vysotsky and S.S. Pyatnitsky were also used. Experiments have established the outstripping growth of larch (the main breed) and ash (the accompanying breed) in the flow-regulating forest strip, reinforced with a water-retaining rampart, compared with the near-drainage due to surface runoff accumulated in the rampart pond. The growth intensity index of larch increases with age by 2.95 cm/cm2, and the productivity of cambium decreases in the runoff-regulating forest strip by 0.9 dm3/m2, in the by-ravine by 3.40 cm/cm2 and 0.73 dm3/m2, respectively, which is associated with a lower moisture content in the soil. In the by-ravine forest strip, soil moisture reserves for the long-term observation period averaged 49.0‑61.1% of the lowest moisture capacity, in the runoff control zone with a rampart – 56.7‑72.3%, which additionally accumulated 34.2‑49.7 mm of moisture in 1.5 m of soil layer. The bonitet of larch when the forest strip is strengthened by a rampart exceeds the bonitet of the by-ravine strip by 1 class. It should be noted that Siberian larch is a more highly productive species compared to pedunculate oak by one or two classes of bonitet in identical conditions with soils on the flask (previously published by us, 2021). The coefficients of determination of the relationship between the growth in height of Siberian larch growing in the flow-regulating and by-ravine forest strips, from the indicators of age, growth intensity, productivity of cambium are 0.92‑0.98, which indicates a close relationship. Siberian larch, as the main species, is recommended in protective forest stands, especially on bedrock.

Published: April 2024

The conjugation interface of the concrete dam with the rock-fill dam is the most critical section of the pressure front of the Boguchanskaya HPP. The most important feature of the Boguchanskaya HPP is the presence of an impervious element – an asphalt concrete diaphragm, which is made using a special technology from a cast hydraulic asphalt concrete mixture laid in a heated state. The safety of the pressure front of the hydroelectric complex depends on the condition of the junction of the asphalt concrete diaphragm with section No. 34 of the concrete dam (including the condition of the contact joint between them). After the beginning of filling the reservoir in 2012, the opening of the contact joint between the ABD and section No. 34 of the concrete dam was recorded, and the settlement of the ABD relative to section No. 34 of the concrete dam was also noted. At present, the opening of the contact seam and the settlement cannot be called stabilized. The aim of the research is to determine the computational stress-strain state of the conjugation between the concrete and rock-fill dams of the Boguchanskaya HPP. On the basis of a spatial finite element model of the conjunction of a concrete dam with a rock-fill dam, taking into account the data of field observations and deviations from the design prerequisites, calculations of the stress-strain state were performed. The results of the calculations showed that the controlled values do not exceed the criterion values.

Among them is the health-care competence of the teacher, as an integrative professional-special skill that ensures the protection of life and health, the formation of a culture of healthy and safe way of life for subjects of the educational process. In the minds of European integration of the modern world, the contribution of foreign language, which is oriented not only towards the development of communicative and linguistic competencies of workers, but also and on the implementation of health-care activities in the current world environment. In statistics, there is a need for a structural-functional model of health-care competence of the future input of foreign language. This model is presented as a central system, which includes a number of mutually deterministic components: value-motivational, cognitive, epistemological, active, communicative and reflective. A description of the model components and their characteristics is provided. A similar structural-functional model is used as the basis for developing diagnostic criteria for analyzing the level of formation of health and safety competence of a future reader of a foreign language. With the help of a fragmented system of criterion-visual tools, it is possible to evaluate the level of formation of both other components of the health-careful competence of the next generation, and also evaluate the level of the preparation.

Published: April 2024

The article explores the provision of accommodations in the process of learning academic courses in higher education institutions (hereinafter - HEIs) using a comparative approach. The relevance of the study is due to a number of contradictions between the growing demands of society to take into account the individual characteristics of students in the context of the war in Ukraine and the limitation of such accommodations in HEIs by didactic approaches; the strategy of individualization of the educational process defined at the legislative level and the lack of units in HEIs responsible for ensuring equal access to education for students; the need to study foreign experience in training students in HEIs and the state of development of the topic. The purpose of the study is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the system of providing accommodations in the study of academic courses in US HEIs and to outline ways to implement the American experience in Ukraine. The research methodology is based on the qualitative comparative research methodology. The research data was obtained by analyzing empirical data collected from pedagogical observation, analysis, synthesis and generalization of data. The study sample included 11 US HEIs that accommodate students by provising Letters of Accommodation. The results of the study identify ways to implement such accommodations, describe the departments responsible for creating conditions for equal access to education and accommodation, define eligibility criteria, describe the procedure for obtaining accommodation for academic courses, and ways faculty implement the accommodation recommendation. It is found that the three main ways to implement accommodations are the introduction of universal design into the development of course materials and class activities, changes in the physical space of the classroom and classroom management, and the use of didactic ways to ensure accommodations. The prospects for implementing the American experience in Ukraine are the establishment of departments that would deal with issues of equal access to education and provide recommendations on accommodation for students; the introduction of screening and diagnostic procedures in higher education institutions in cooperation with relevant experts to determine the need for accommodation for students; and the introduction of universal design principles into the content of academic courses.
