ISLAMIC WORLDVIEW IN THE PERSPECTIVE OF M.T.M YAZDĪ AND S.M.N AL-ATTAS AND THEIR IMPLICATION ON ISLAMIZATION OF KNOWLEDGE
Authors: Sulaiman Ahmad
Published: June 2023

The stagnant and even underdeveloped condition of Muslims all over the world has raised concerns among scholars. Many are trying to offer solutions to restore Islamic civilization to its peak. Various proposals lead to the reconstruction of philosophical elements, including epistemology and worldview, to more practical ones, such as the Islamization of knowledge. This study tries to compare the concept of worldview and its implications for the Islamization of knowledge from two major contemporary figures. The two are Syed Muhammad Naquib Al-Attas, a mainstream leader of the Islamization of knowledge from Malaysia, and Ayatullah Muhammad Taqie Miṣbāḥ Yazdī, a neo-Sadrian philosopher from Persia. This research used a qualitative approach, namely the method of literature study to understand the Islamic worldview from the perspective of the two figures and what the implications are for the Islamization of knowledge. The results of the study revealed they both believe in the importance of a genuine worldview as the basis for the reconstruction of Muslims at the individual level and Islam at the level of civilization. However, they adhere to different ontological and epistemological arguments. In Al-Attas, the commitment to sacred texts as well as the interpretation of classical scholars makes the model of Islamization of knowledge tend to be backward and reactionary towards the West. As for Ayatullah Yazdī, prioritizing reason and demonstration has led to a model of Islamization of science that is critical and open for dialogue toward Western science.
PRIMORDIAL VERSTEHEN AND CONNOTATIVE SIGNIFICATION VIEWS OF PHILOSOPHICAL SUFISM TRADITION
Authors: Setiawan Ahmad Bayu
Published: June 2023

The integration of modern Western philosophy with the study of Sufism tradition wasn’t quite familiar. So far, philosophical Sufism is often studied from the perspective of neo-platonic philosophy which is famous for its emanation doctrine. Through this research, the author proposes a new integration by using the philosophical concept of Heidegger’s hermeneutics and Roland Barthes’s semiotics as perspectives in studying the phenomena of the philosophical Sufism tradition. The hermeneutic theory of Martin Heidegger used in this research is existential primordial verstehen and the theory of facticity. Whereas Semiotic theory used in this research is Roland Barthes’s theory of order of signification which is used to analyze Sufi’s connotative interpretation of the Qur’an verse. The method used in this research is analysis descriptive by a combined table of hermeneutic and semiotic theories through library research on several primary sources concerning Sufi’s interpretation such as Miftahus Sufi, al-Luma‘, Shaṭaḥāt al-Sūfiyyah, etc. As a result, in the perspective of Sufism Primordial Verstehen, the doctrines of Sufism such as ittiḥād, ḥulūl, and waḥdah al-wujūd could be understood as existential primordial understanding in contemplating Sufi’s existence in the world and his arrival at the understanding of Allah as the only existing Being.
EXAMINING THE COMPONENT OF TRUTH IN ART BASED ON MULLA ṢADRĀ’S OPINIONS
Authors: Amini Mahdi , Akhoondi Mojtaba
Published: June 2023

How can the presence of truth in art be philosophically justified? A fundamental question that can be answered in the wisdom of Mullā Ṣadrā, one of the most important philosophers of Islam. The importance of the question of the relationship between art and truth arises from the state of art in the present era. In fact, the degradation of reason in front of feeling from the nineteenth century until today has made the field of arts devoid of any representation of the truth and caused the importance and originality of finding pleasure or evoking feelings in the arts. Therefore, with a philosophical approach and relying on the descriptive-analytical method, at first, it described the fundamental of truth and delusion, the unity of the world, and the known, practical reason and the function of imagination in shaping intellectual concepts based on Mullā Ṣadrā’s views, and then with relying on those principles, he has examined the formation of truth-based works of art. The most important conclusion of the article is that art is not the only product of the feelings and taste of its creator; Rather, the artist, in his understanding of the truth, prepares the ground for its manifestation in the work of art. With this characteristic, art finds a form of rational knowledge, and symbolic and mystical arts are among the most important examples of this type of artistic creation.

Published: June 2023

An efficient roaming service over wireless networks is essential for mobile users. It allows mobile users to seamlessly access the services provided by the home agent without losing connectivity when they visit a foreign network. This handover communication happens with the help of a foreign agent. In most cases, the communication between the mobile user and the foreign agent occurs over an unsecured channel. Therefore, researchers have proposed various authentication schemes to protect data transmitted over this unsecured channel. Most of the proposed schemes are focused on key agreement schemes. However, the key agreement schemes researchers have submitted are primarily high in computational and communication costs. Therefore, this research proposed an authenticated key agreement scheme based on passwords and smart cards with lower computational and communication costs without compromising the scheme’s security. This criterion was achieved due to using lower-cost operations and functions in the scheme. Moreover, the scheme’s development is based on the result of analyzing and improving other schemes proposed by other researchers.

Financial globalization increase integration degree of capital flow. However, the global shock could impact many countries, either positive and negative. COVID-19 pandemic is one of the shock that affect world including ASEAN-5. This paper apply the Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model to identify the linkage among ASEAN-5 stock markets during the COVID-19 pandemic and it is used because of no spesific theory behind it. The data used in this paper is the weekly return of the composite index of ASEAN-5 stock markets from 11 March 2020 to 29 December 2021. This paper finds that there is a linkage among ASEAN-5 stock markets indicated by decreasing price index consecutive. Therefore, the implication of this paper is that the investors have to switch the investment instrument from stock to other instrument carefully. Once the negative impact begins to taper off, investors could do international stock investment.

At the same time, the multi-level teaching method should be improved to enhance students’ discipline core literacy. Pay attention to contact life reality, enhance students’ practical application ability.
Convex Stochastic Approaches for the Optimal Allocation of Distributed Energy Resources in AC Distribution Networks with Measurements Fitted to a Continuous Probability Distribution Function
Authors: Mendoza-Osorio Diego , Rosero-García Javier
Published: June 2023

This paper addresses the optimal stochastic allocation of Distributed Energy Resources in distribution Networks. Typically, uncertain problems are analyzed in multi-stage formulations including case generation routines, resulting in computationally exhaustive programs. In this article, two probabilistic approaches are proposed resulting in a single-stage, convex, stochastic optimal power flow problem: The Range-Probability Optimization (RPO) and Value-Probability Optimization (VPO). The RPO maximizes probabilities within a range of uncertainty, whilst the VPO optimizes the values of the random variables and maximizes their probabilities. Random variables are modeled with hourly measurements fitted to the logistic distribution. These formulations were tested on two systems and compared against the deterministic case built from expected values. Results indicate that assuming deterministic conditions ends in highly underestimated losses. The RPO showed that by including a ±10 % uncertainty, the losses can be increased up to 40 % with up to −72 % photovoltaic capacity, depending on the system, whereas the VPO resulted in up to 85 % increases in power losses despite PV installations, with 20 % greater probabilities in average. By implementing any of the proposed approaches, it was possible to obtain more probable upper envelopes in the objective, avoiding case generation stages and heuristic methods.

Published: June 2023

Plant height is one of the key agronomic traits for improving the yield of sweetpotato. The phytohormones, especially gibberellins (GAs) are crucial to regulate plant height. The 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase (NCED) is the key enzyme for abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis signalling in higher plants. However, its role in regulating plant height has not been reported to date. Here, we cloned a NCED gene, IbNCED1, from sweetpotato cultivar Jishu26. This gene encoded the 587-amino acid polypeptide containing an NCED superfamily domain. The expression level of IbNCED1 was highest in the old tissues in the field-grown Jishu26. The expression of IbNCED1 was induced by ABA and GA. Overexpression of IbNCED1 promoted the accumulation of ABA and inhibited the content of active GA3 and plant height, and affected the expression levels of genes involved in the GA metabolic pathway. IbNCED1 overexpression reduced sensitivity to GA3 and exogenous application of GA3 could rescue the dwarf phenotype. In conclusion, we suggest that IbNCED1 regulates plant height and development by controlling the accumulation of active GA3 signalling pathway in transgenic sweetpotato.

Inverse Evaluation of Monopile Pile-soil Interaction Parameters Using Random Search
Authors: Qiao Hou , Li Wei , Jiang Zhenqiang , Guo Chuanrui
Published: June 2023

To deal with the uncertainties in modeling offshore wind turbines, we proposed a parameter inversion method for the pile-soil interaction model based on structural health monitoring results and the numerical model. The proposed parameter inversion method has a numerical model, an objective function selected using both the numerical and identified results, and an inverse optimization using a random search algorithm in the assumed parameter space. The parameter results in the minimum optimization objective function are identified as the in-situ parameter. The proposed method is confirmed to converge after some iterations, whatever the initial parameter values are. However, different initial parameter cases may converge to slightly different optimal parameters, implying the pile results are sensitive to geological parameters. Moreover, a comparison with the original design results shows design redundancy or risks. Though the proposed method has several flaws, it can shed some light on the influence of uncertainties in offshore wind turbines, such as soil parameters in geological surveys.

Published: June 2023

The main question proposed in this research is if different types of organizational approach, adapted from rapidly changing disciplines — such as IT industry, and software engineering in particular — could help overcome this gap by shortening the response time needed to analyze advanced solutions in accordance with changed circumstances, thus allowing for architectural programming to obtain different positions in the timeline of project planning and realization. We propose a novel methodology of architectural design as a self-reliant instrument inspired by Agile Manifesto and some of its instantiations, most notably by the Scrum Framework.

A roadmap is proposed that defines a systematic approach for craft preservation and its evaluation. The proposed roadmap aims at deepening craft understanding, so blueprints of appropriate tools that support craft documentation, education, and training can be designed while achieving preservation through the stimulation and diversification of practitioner income. A roadmap is required because understanding making activities that include “care, judgement, and dexterity” [1] call for interdisciplinary contributions from Anthropology, Cognitive Science, Art History, as well as Physical and Computational Sciences, to cover the multifaceted expression of crafts as living and developing heritage, as a source of income, and as the expression of the mind through “imagery, technology, and sedimented knowledge” [2]. In addition to this roadmap, an evaluation strategy is proposed to validate the efficacy of the developed results and provide a benchmark for the efficacy of craft preservation approaches. The proposed contribution aims at the catalysation of craft education and training with digital aids, widening access and engagement to crafts, economising learning, increasing exercisability, and relaxing remoteness constraints in craft learning.
Hybrid Photovoltaic Thermal Systems for Enhanced Efficiency
Authors: Sharma Richika , Ahuja Samidha , Ansari Jamilur R.
Published: June 2023

All solar thermal systems, due to their thermal nature, can be hybridised or operated with both fossil fuel and solar energy. By enhancing availability and dispatch ability, hybridization has the potential to boost the value of concentrating solar thermal technology. Hybrid photovoltaic thermal systems (PV/T) offer a solution to improve on the limited capacity growth seen with standard solar panels. The analysis focuses on the creation of alternative structural and design so-lutions that may be used to boost lacking efficiency that was previously hampered by limited spectrum absorption of sun light. As a result, the spectrum is separated into two spectrum ranges, one that directly matches the bandgap of PV materials and the other that is absorbed for thermal absorption outputs. Most two channel systems are used to capture or reflect sunlight, with the layer specifically located right above the PV cell. Another layer of nanofluid is employed to evacuate heat from the PV cell, acting as the second channel, to specifically eliminate overheating difficulties. To address concerns that have arisen as a result of years of observation, the most recent study involves nano-particle-based fluids employed in PV/T, which uses a cooling medium to provide an alternate heat transfer option. Aside from nanofluids, there are phase change materials, channel alterations that result in a higher flow rate and hence improve overall performance.

We report a small footprint cost-effective isothermal rapid DNA amplification system, with integrated microfluidics for automated sample analysis and detection of SARS-CoV-2 in human and environmental samples. Our system measures low-level fluorescent signal in real-time during amplification, while maintaining the desired assay temperature, on a low power, portable system footprint. A unique soft microfluidic chip design was implemented to mitigate thermocapillary effects and facilitate optical alignment for automated image capture and signal analysis. The system-on-board prototype coupled with the LAMP primers designed by BioCoS, is sensitive enough to detect viral loads of SARS-CoV-2 in a broad concentration range corresponding to a threshold cycle range of 16 to 39. Clinical specimens were tested at Kingston Health Sciences using a clinically validated PCR assay and variants were determined using whole genome sequencing.
A New Tool to Study the Binding Behavior of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins
Authors: Upadhyay Aakriti , Ekenna Chinwe
Published: June 2023

Understanding the binding behavior and conformational dynamics of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) is crucial for unraveling their regulatory roles in biological processes. However, their lack of stable 3D structures poses challenges for analysis. To address this, we propose an algorithm that explores IDP binding behavior with protein complexes by extracting topological and geometric features from the protein surface model. Our algorithm identifies a geometrically favorable binding pose for the IDP and plans a feasible trajectory to evaluate its transition to the docking position. We focus on IDPs from Homo sapiens and Mus-musculus, investigating their interaction with the Plasmodium Falciparum (PF) pathogen associated with malaria-related deaths. We compare our algorithm with HawkDock and HDOCK docking tools for quantitative (computation time) and qualitative (binding affinity) measures. Our results indicate that our method outperforms the compared methods in computation performance and binding affinity of experimental conformations.
Significance of Diabetic Kidney Disease Biomarkers in Predicting Metabolic-Associated Fatty Liver Disease
Authors: Bae Jaehyun , Lee Byung-Wan
Published: June 2023

Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) share various pathophysiological factors, and epidemiological evidence suggests that these two diseases are associated. Albuminuria and the estimated glomerular filtration rate, which are conventional biomarkers of DKD, are reportedly associated with the risk or severity of MAFLD. Recently, novel DKD biomarkers reflecting renal tubular injury have been introduced to complement conventional DKD markers. In this article, we looked at previous studies that showed an association between MAFLD and DKD and also reviewed the significance of DKD biomarkers as predictive risk factors for MAFLD.
A New Perspective for the Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease: Exosome-Like Liposomes to Deliver Natural Compounds and RNA Therapies
Authors: Ribeiro Joana , Lopes Ivo , Gomes Andreia Castro
Published: June 2023

With the increment of the aging population in recent years, neurodegenerative diseases exert a major global disease burden, essentially as a result of the lack of treatments that can stop the disease progression. Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is an example of a neurodegenerative disease, that affects millions of people globally, with no effective treatment. Natural compounds have emerged as a viable therapy to fill a huge gap in AD management, and in recent years, mostly fuelled by the Covid-19 pandemic, RNA-based therapeutics have become a hot topic in the treatment of several diseases. Treatments of neurodegenerative diseases face significant limitations due to the complex and interconnected pathways that lead to their hallmarks and, also due to the necessity to cross the blood–brain barrier. Nanotechnology has contributed to surpass this bottleneck in the treatment of AD, by promoting safe and enhanced drug delivery to the brain. In particular, exosome-like nanoparticles, a hybrid delivery system combining exosomes and liposomes' advantageous features, are demonstrating great potential in the treatment of central nervous system diseases.

Published: June 2023

There are several Amazonian plant species with potential pharmacological validation for the treatment of acute kidney injury, a condition in which the kidneys are unable to adequately filter the blood, resulting in the accumulation of toxins and waste in the body. Scientific production on plant compounds capable of preventing or attenuating acute kidney injury, caused by several factors, including ischemia, toxins and inflammation, has shown promising results in animal models of acute kidney injury and some preliminary studies in humans. Despite the popular use of Amazonian plant species for kidney disorders, further pharmacological studies are needed to identify active compounds and subsequently conduct more complex preclinical trials. Thus, this review aimed to describe the pharmacological properties of phytocompounds from Amazonian plant species and their effectiveness in the prevention and treatment of Acute Kidney Injury. (AKI). The classes of Amazonian plant compounds with significant biological activities most evident in the consulted literature were alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, steroids and terpenoids. An expressive phytochemical and pharmacological relevance of the studied species was identified, although many of them with insufficiently explored potential, mainly in face of AKI, a clinical condition with high morbidity and mortality.

Support Effect and Simulation Evaluation of Lifting Motion Using Non-Wearing Type Power Assist Device
Authors: Yokota Masashi , Takaiwa Masahiro
Published: June 2023

One of the serious problems that Japan has been facing is its growing aging society, which causes a shortage of young workers in the nursing field to support care recipients and in other industries that require heavy labor. Many workers in these workplaces experience back pain. To reduce the burden on the lower back, the squat method is generally recommended when workers lift heavy objects. Many assist devices have been developed to reduce the burden on the body; however, most wearing type devices have difficulty performing the squat method owing to their mechanical constraints. In a previous study, we developed a non-wearing type pneumatic power assist device that considers the squat method and evaluated its support effects during a simple lifting motion. In this study, we developed a passive type assist device and a previously developed active type device and quantitatively evaluated their effectiveness in lifting motions. In addition, we analyzed muscle activity using a musculoskeletal simulator.

Comparison of methods for monitoring icing of high-voltage power lines and an overview of measuring equipment used to diagnose such lines
Authors: Kriukova Nataliya , Markov Vladyslav , Honcharov Yevgen , Polyakov Igor
Published: June 2023

The low structural reliability of overhead lines, due to continuous climatic influence, becomes the cause of electrical network accidents and unreliable power supply. Ensuring the trouble-free operation of overhead lines is a complex task, the solution of which is of the utmost importance for the normal functioning of the entire infrastructure. In the autumn-winter period, difficult weather conditions almost completely exclude the quick completion of repair works. A fairly large share of accidents occurs during the formation of icy deposits on wires and lightning protection cables. Today, visual inspections of high-voltage power lines remain the main way of diagnosing icy deposits. In practice, it is necessary to equip overhead lines with ice load telemetry devices, which will allow monitoring the formation of ice deposits on wires in real time. The following diagnostic methods are used in modern ice monitoring devices: strainometric, fiber-optic, aerodynamic, locational, and instrumental-parametric. The tensiometric method of diagnosis is implemented by means of direct measurement of the icy load on the wire with subsequent comparison of the measured values with predetermined values of the threshold loads. To implement this diagnostic method, magnetoelastic force measuring sensors are used. Such a sensor is connected between the traverse of the U-shaped support and the upper end of the corresponding garland of insulators with a phase wire. Ice, wind and ice-wind loads are measured separately. This method has a limited scope of application, namely for diagnosing the formation of ice on the phase wires of intermediate spans of single-circuit lines with two-post U-shaped resistances. The fiber-optic method of strain gauge measurements is implemented in object control systems under difficult operating conditions, at nuclear power plants. The mechanical effort sensor (fiber-optic strain sensor) implements the fiber-optic method of strain measurement. Fiber-optic strain sensors are characterized by high accuracy due to resistance to interference and complexity of execution.
Method of measurement of partial capacitances for tested objects with three electrodes
Authors: Kostjukov Ivan , Kubryk Borys
Published: June 2023

The article is devoted to the development of a method of measuring partial capacitances between the electrically conductive structural elements of a capacitive tested object with three electrodes. The developed method involves the applying of resistive-capacitive grounding of the investigated insulation layer with subsequent gradual adjustment of the value of the auxiliary resistor, through which the investigated insulation layer is grounded, to the value at which the phase shift between the voltage on the investigated insulation layer and the auxiliary capacity will be equal to 0º. The results of the calculations showed that in this case the voltage between the electrodes depends only on the capacitive elements of the circuit, and does not depend on the electrical resistance caused by dielectric losses. After measuring the voltages on the elements of the substitution scheme followed by similar re-adjustment of the value of the auxiliary resistor, for a different value of the capacity of the auxiliary capacitor, it is possible to form a system of equations, the solution of which allows you to determine the unknown values of the partial capacities of the insulation layers. The developed method can be used to determine each partial capacitance of the object of control with three electrodes and does not require the use of 3-terminal immittance meters and the use of application-based cumulative measurement survey techniques

Work-life balance and quality of work life are two ways to maintain good employee performance, which simultaneously result to meeting company goals. This present study aims to investigate the effect of work-life balance and quality of work life on employee performance with gender as a mediating variable. This study was done in a quantitative manner using explanatory research approach. This study examined employees from PT XYZ – one of multi-finance companies in Central Java. The data was collected by distributing questionnaires and then analyzed using moderated regression analysis (MRA). The results confirm that both work-life balance and quality of work life have a positive effect on the employee performance in PT XYZ. Further, the gender is also proven to moderate the effect of both work-life balance and quality of work life on the employee performance in PT XYZ. The use of gender as the mediating variable in this study contribute to the work-life balance literature, which makes it a differentiating factor from previous researches. The results of this study imply practical benefits for the employers in making decisions for their employees in efforts to achieve the work-life balance.

The demand for shrimp from Indonesia continues to increase every year, thus creating greater interest in the shrimp farming industry. Although shrimp is relatively easy to farm, many variables affect the success of the harvest. The harvest in shrimp farming is calculated using % SR (Survival Rate). In our research, we used machine learning approaches, namely decision tree (DT) and k-Nearest Neighbor (KNN). DT and KNN will be used to predict whether we will have a successful harvest. From these predictions, we also provide suggestions for business improvements to utilize data. The expected result of such advice is that the business can improve its performance and get more consistent results.

The increase in online activities is followed by increased spending to meet online needs, one of which is entertainment services. One of the most widely accessed entertainment facilities is digital TV and video-on-demand or VoD services. The service, which began to flourish in 2016, is an online video content provider system with a subscription payment mechanism. One of its appeals, the user has the freedom to decide what he wants to see. One way to entertain yourself which has become a new lifestyle pattern is to watch streaming shows or subscription videos online. A McKinsey Company survey at the end of March said that as many as 45% of respondents spent more on home entertainment during the pandemic. On the other hand, 85% of respondents reduced their spending on outdoor entertainment. Subscription video streaming services (video-on-demand / VoD) are one of the entertainment options that can be done at home. UseeTV GO is an Over-the-Top (OTT) TV and Video mobile application service, using the publicly accessible Internet. The content is available via smartphones or tablets with broadband connections. Currently, UseeTV Go app users are around 300 thousand active users every month, far below Vidio.com and Netflix. With the low Monthly Active of UseeTV Go's Video-on-demand app users in the pre-growth area far below, Netflix, Vidio.com, and user activeness based on time, UseeTV Go is in the Average Performer area.
