Authors: Zayadi Zayadi , Muid N Abd. , Kholilurrohman Kholilurrohman
Published: November 2023

Mahmoud Muhammed Taha (1909-Januar 1985) juga dikenal dengan sebutan Ustadz Mahmoud Muhammed Taha adalah seorang ustadz Sufi dan insinyur asal Sudan.  Pemikirannya yang paling dikenal adalah “Pesan Kedua Islam”, yang mendalilkan bahwa ayat-ayat Al-Qur`an yang diturunkan di Madinah (Madaniyyah) hanya sesuai zamannya saja, sementara ayat-ayat yang diturunkan di Makka (Makiyyah) bersifat universal, mewakili agama yang ideal, dan akan dihidupkan kembali ketika umat manusia telah mencapai tahap perkembangan yang mampu menerima mereka, dan akan mengantarkan Islam yang diperbaharui berdasarkan kebebasan dan kesetaraan. Oleh karena itu, dia berpandangan perlu adanya reformasi syariat Islam.  Untuk itu, dia melakukan penetapan (istinbath) hukum dengan pendekatan metode nasakh.  Dia mengakui, nasakh memang terjadi berdasarkan Al-Qur`an Surat al-Baqarah/2: 106. Ia dihukum mati pada tahun 1985 oleh rezim Gaafar Nimeiry setelah dinyatakn murtad.

Authors: Kusuma Giri Kadek Ayu Wikaningtyas , Widi Astuti Ni Made
Published: November 2023

Penyakit Radang Usus atau Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) baru-baru ini meningkat di Asia dan Timur Tengah. Perubahan faktor lingkungan, khususnya gaya hidup kebarat-baratan, dianggap sebagai salah satu pendorong utama meningkatnya prevalensi penyakit radang usus. Serat makanan atau dietary fiber (DF) adalah bagian tanaman yang dapat dimakan, yang dapat difermentasi seluruhnya atau sebagian di usus besar dengan tidak tercerna dan tidak dapat diserap di usus kecil manusia. dietary fiber dapat dibagi menjadi serat pangan larut dan serat pangan tidak larut. Dietary fiber memiliki efek meningkatkan kesehatan usus, karena dapat melindungi penghalang usus dan meningkatkan panjang usus, salah satu contoh serat makanan yang dapat dimanfaatkan yaitu jeruk. Dalam jeruk terdapat kandungan pektin yang sering ditemukan pada bagian kulit jeruk. Kulit jeruk bali mengandung pektin dalam konsentrasi tinggi. Pektin adalah suatu komponen serat yang terdapat pada dinding sel primer dan lapisan lamella tengah pada tanaman. Pektin banyak digunakan pada industri pangan karena memiliki kemampuan sebagai bahan dasar pembentuk jelly. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kandungan pektin pada kulit jeruk sebagai dietary fiber dalam upaya penurunan resiko radang usus. Metode yang digunakan dalam penyusun artikel ini adalah metode literature review. Hasil yang menunjukkan bahwa ditemukan beberapa studi yang melibatkan 170.776 wanita dewasa, yang diikuti secara prospektif selama 26 tahun, mengungkapkan bahwa konsumsi jangka panjang serat makanan dikaitkan dengan penurunan penyakit radang usus. Namun, sampai saat ini masih belum banyak buku dan situs web yang membahas mengenai kandungan pektin pada kulit jeruk sebagai dietary fiber dalam upaya penurunan resiko radang usus.
Legal Protection Of Bank Financial Institution Brand Against Username Squatting Through Twitter Accounts Based On The Trademark Law And The Electronic Information And Transaction Law
Authors: Zahra Rizka Alifia , Amiruloh Muhamad , Rafianti Laina
Published: November 2023

The use of a brand as a Twitter social media account is one way for brand owners to introduce their goods and/or services as well as a guarantee for their quality. The rise of fake Twitter accounts on behalf of the financial institution Bank Mandiri proves that trademark infringement does not only occur conventionally, but also through the scope of cyberspace. Writing this normative law aims to determine the qualifications for the act of using a bank's financial institution brand as a Twitter social media account and to determine what legal action should be taken by Bank Mandiri against those who use its brand without rights and permission. This research is a legal study employing the normative juridical approach method, a type of legal writing that is conducted by examining library data. The study applies a qualitative analysis method, connecting legal principles, norms, and theories to determine legal qualifications and consequences. The results show that using trademarks as social media accounts should be based on principles, including legal certainty, good faith, and neutrality within technology. Civil law measures offer a proportional legal remedy, seeking compensation for economic harm suffered. This study suggests the need for specific regulations to prohibit the registration and use of trademarks as social media accounts in the virtual space. This research contributes to the understanding of trademark protection in cyberspace, and provides legal guidance for financial institutions to address trademark misuse on social media platforms.

Authors: Marković Marija , Maksić Mladen , Živić Jelena , Igrutinović Nebojša , Todorović Željko , Zdravković Nataša
Published: November 2023

Introduction. The role of esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGDS) is reflected in the evaluation of various symptoms and signs of numerous organic disorders such as ulcer disease, reflux disease, diverticula, achalasia and tumors of the upper gastrointestinal tract, but also in the exclusion of the same conditions in patients, the basis of which is a functional disorder. Functional diseases of the digestive system are a great challenge in everyday clinical work. Aim. The goal of this study was to determine the frequency of functional dyspepsia in relation to the organic one by sex and age as well as the frequency of Helicobacter pylori infection (HBP) in patients with dyspepsia, performing upper endoscopy as the gold standard in differential diagnosis. Methods. The study analyzed 5,200 patients over a four-year period. All patients underwent upper endoscopy with dyspeptic disorders and all subjects underwent the biopsy of the gastric mucosa and pathohistological verification. Results. The frequency of dyspeptic disorders was higher in women than in men, with the average age being 43 years. The most common complaints were epigastric pain and postprandial fullness. Endoscopic findings were positive in 55% of patients, predominantly over 55 years of age, with no statistical difference between the HBP status. The most common changes were reflux esophagitis, gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer. Conclusion. Our study showed a high rate of positive endoscopic findings in patients with dyspepsia according to the criteria of Rome IV. Gastroscopy has significant implications in patients with dyspepsia.
MicroRNA: Potential biomarkers in chronic kidney disease
Authors: Stojiljković Vladana , Stefanović Nikola , Vukelić-Nikolić Marija , Đorđević Branka , Bašić Jelena , Kocić Gordana , Cvetković Tatjana
Published: November 2023

Introduction. Standard biomarkers for the diagnosis and follow-up of chronic kidney disease patients are appropriate neither in early diagnostics, adequate follow-up and progression assessment nor in complication development risk assessment. For that reason, a search for new, more suitable biomarkers continues. Various studies suggested microRNAs as a potential solution, as they are involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy, kidney cancer and kidney function impairment in general. Methods. Internet search engines were used to find and select relevant literature data and electronic databases. Results. Research published so far, in oncology especially, have reported various single microRNAs and panels of microRNAs as candidates for routine diagnostic implementation. Chronic kidney disease is, however, quite complex in terms of etiology of the disease occurrence, since there are many causes that can lead to kidney tissue damage and impairment of its function and finally full development of the chronic kidney disease. MicroRNAs are stable in bodily fluids, and hemodialysis procedure does not affect their levels. Also, high RNase activity in chronic kidney disease patients does not accelerate microRNA degradation in their samples. Conclusions. Literature data suggest that microRNAs are appropriate candidates for diagnostic use in chronic kidney disease. However, there are challenges that are yet to be overcome in order to use microRNAs routinely.

Published: November 2023

In continuous hot slab rolling, it is important to know the temperature distribution within the strip along the length of the rolling mill because the dominant parameter controlling the kinetics of metallurgical transformations and the flow stress of a rolled metal is temperature. A mathematical model based on finite difference method is utilized to predict the temperature distribution and microstructural changes during the continuous hot slab rolling process. The effects of various parameters such as heat of deformation, the work-roll temperature, the rolling speed, and the heat transfer coefficient between the work-roll and the metal were all taken into account in the analysis. From the parametric analysis carried out, it was shown that the temperature in the deformation zone increases as the percentage reduction in the strip thickness and the rolling process, it affects the temperature distribution in the work-roll significantly, the heat generation on the strip-roll interface increases significantly when the percentage reduction in the strip exceeds a certain value. It was also shown that at low rolling speed, the temperature increase is uniform inside the strip and the roll and the maximum temperature of the strip occurs in the neighborhood of the strip centerline region.

Published: November 2023

The ability of a roof to absorb heat is crucial for maintaining temperature stability within a room. Therefore, natural material composite coatings utilization offers a viable option for modern roof development. This research investigates how using natural stone mixed with epoxy, and applied as a coating on a galvalume surface, influences thermal conductivity and reduces room temperature. Temperature measurements were collected around a small room with a composite-coated roof, utilizing different types of rock in the composition. Thermocouples were placed 20 cm above the roof's surface, attached to the roofing composite, positioned beneath the galvalume layer, and within the small room. The results demonstrate a reduction in thermal conductivity and room temperature when natural stone powder is added to the roof. Experiments using composite coatings with various stone types exhibit varying degrees of room temperature reduction. Consequently, this research concludes that the unique properties of natural stone can effectively lower the thermal conductivity of roofs and decrease room temperature.

The paper discusses the results of the experimental investigation of the performance of several grades of PcBN cutting composites in conditions of the interrupted machining of hardened steel. Both BH and BL types of PcBN indexable inserts with additions of Si3N4, TiC, and TiCN were tested, and cutting speed varied to assess the possibility of applying these cutting tools in different conditions. It has been shown that BL PcBN can be utilized for turning with shock loads in case of high cutting speed and low depth of cut (0,2 mm). While in the range of comparatively low cutting speeds BL cutting tools are actually inoperable, and because of microchipping of polycrystalline fragments and brittle destruction of the cutting edge, an increase of the cutting speed to 210 m/min changes wear pattern and formation of the wear land. As well as this, measurement of the form and values of the cutting forces impulses revealed the effect of their peak growth by up to 40%. The danger of shock impulses was analyzed by FEM modeling, and it was demonstrated that during impacts, the maximal value of the third Principal stress exceeds the average level of compressive stresses during continuous cutting by 1.6 times, which can cause damage to the cutting tool. The data on the estimation of tool fracture probability depending on loading conditions are presented, and the possibility of reducing such probability is shown.
Framework for evaluating solution concepts in TRIZ-based inventive designs using a functional, behavioral, and structural modeling approach
Authors: Irshad Yehya , Coulibaly Amadou , Chibane Hicham , Houssin Remy
Published: November 2023

This study proposes an evaluation framework to explore the solution concepts generated by inventive design approaches in the concept generation phase of the engineering design process. The concept generation phase significantly impacts producing inventive solutions, as a failure at this stage can lead to time-consuming redesign and expensive rework without any solution. The proposed framework is focused on solving two problems at this stage: first, how to represent a solution concept that is not an obvious product but rather a rough idea capable of guiding designers to produce inventive solutions. And second, how to analyze the solution concepts to evaluate and compare with others. The evaluation framework is based on the classical Gero's function, behavior, and structure product modeling formalism. The capability of the proposed evaluation framework is initially tested through its application to solution concepts generated by inventive design approaches like the Russian Theory of Inventive Problem Solving TRIZ.
Development of a SCARA robot arm for palletizing applications based on computer vision
Authors: Ho Vinh , Vo Duy , Trung Phan
Published: November 2023

This paper develops a computer vision system integrated with a SCARA robot arm to pick and place objects. A novel method to calculate the 3D coordinates of the objects from a camera is proposed. This method helps simplify the camera calibration process. It requires no knowledge of camera modeling and mathematical knowledge of coordinate transformations. The least square method will predate the Equation describing the relationship between pixel coordinates and 3D coordinates. An image processing algorithm is presented to detect objects by color or pixel intensity (thresholding method). The pixel coordinates of the objects are then converted to 3D coordinates. The inverse kinematic Equation is applied to find the joint angles of the SCARA robot. A palletizing application is implemented to test the accuracy of the proposed method. The kinematic Equation of the robot arm is presented to convert the 3D position of the objects to the robot joint angles. So, the robot moves exactly to the required positions by providing suitable rotational movements for each robot joint. The experiment results show that the robot can pick and place 27 boxes on the conveyor to the pallet with an average time of 2.8s per box. The positions of the boxes were determined with an average error of 0.5112mm and 0.6838mm in the X and Y directions, respectively.

Authors: Sadiq Ibrahim , Aljabai Sattar , Karamallah Abdulhassan
Published: November 2023

This research conducts an experimental and theoretical investigation of the melting characteristics of a phase change material in a triplex tube heat storage. A three-dimensional model is simulated numerically employing Ansys Fluent software. The enthalpy porosity method is chosen for solving the phase transition of paraffin wax. A blend of equal-volume CuO and Al2O3 hybrid nano-additives was used as conductive material to enhance heat transfer in PCM, which can be considered the originality of this study. At first, the differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) analysis was performed to determine the paraffin thermo-physical properties. Various volume concentrations of 0.4%, 0.8%, 1.6%, and 3.2% were dispersed in paraffin. Besides that, the experiment was performed under different mass flow and inlet fluid temperatures to study the effect of these two parameters on the phase transition rate. The outcomes indicate that adding an Al2O3/CuO hybrid nanoparticle of volume fraction of 0.4-3.2% causes a reduction in total charging time between 10% and 19%. The result also showed that the theoretical efficiency boosts from 61.7% to 84.8% as heat transfer fluid (HTF) inlet temperature increases from 62 °C to 78 °C.

Sports terminology is one of the most active terminologies in modern society. However, the systemic nature of sports terminology takes shape only in recent decades, which is related to the awareness of sport as a type of professional activity that is greatly being developed, as well as to the emergence of sports science. Sports terminology, like any other terminology, represents a system because it has systemic features and includes a whole set of concepts from the field of sports, reveals a hierarchical structure, and reflects logical connections between the elements of the system of concepts. The connection between the elements of the system of concepts is clearly represented in the relations of antonymy and gradation, in the relations of logic, in the relations of the whole and parts, as well as in the formation of terms according to the nest system. Just as there is no unified definition of a term/terminological unit, there is also no single way of classifying terms. At this stage of studying terminology, linguists has not yet developed certain norms for the classification of terms used in different areas of life, thus for the time being we can judge the presented classifications in terms of their detail and how effective they are when considering sports terminology. Terminological classifications suggest that division should take place on the basis of important characteristics. From a linguistic point of view, terms are most often classified based on the criteria of form, function, meaning and origin, with the fact that the mentioned criteria are not mutually exclusive. Apart from this classification, there are other ways and criteria by which the division is made, and in this research they are considered by the sphere (area) of use and based on the division into broader thematic groups that have characteristics that determine them.

Published: November 2023

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic represents the greatest exogenous global shock in the last few decades, which has deeply affected the macroeconomic aggregates around the world. Bearing in mind that COVID-19 pandemic is an exogenous shock; its effect on the macroeconomic aggregates will take time to be analysed, while it has a persistent impact on the financial markets. Purpose: One-third of the transactions worldwide includes the Euro. Hence, the main objective of this study is to estimate the Euro exchange rate's resistance to the exogenous shock caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Study design/methodology/approach: This paper employs the General AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model to examine the EUR/USD exchange rate's resistance to the global exogenous shock caused by the COVID-19. In other words, the authors try to find an answer to question whether the COVID-19 pandemic affects the EUR/USD exchange rate volatility. Finding/conclusions: The results show that the COVID-19 pandemic has no effect on the EUR/USD exchange rate volatility in the long run. These results may confirm our assumption of the resistance of the financial market to the exogenous shock and are useful for anyone needing forecasts of the exchange rate futures movements. The obtained results produce pragmatic expertise in order to manage exchange rate risk and should support policymakers to advance exchange rate policy. Limitations/future research: As a limitation of this study, the authors state the estimation of the Euro exchangeratès resistance to only one exogenous shock, caused by COVID-19. Bearing in mind that in the considered period was also the world economic crises which might have caused a higher volatility then COVID-19, for further research the authors propose an examination of the detailed estimation of the Euro exchangeratès resistance to different exogenous shocks.

Industrial systems require absolute productivity in order to achieve maximum profits and meet economic objectives. To accomplish this, systems need to be maintained and diagnosed in an adequate, precise, and reliable manner. Modern diagnostic techniques, such as vibration diagnostics, enable timely action to prevent potential major failures and unplanned downtime, which are the most undesirable costs within a production system. The implementation of vibration diagnostic controls provides a precise and clear picture of the condition of rotating equipment and machinery, such as pumps, compressors, and turbines. By analyzing signals collected from measurement points, the condition of the machines can be determined, and a maintenance plan can be established for the upcoming period.

Natural fibres, which are always biodegradable, organic, and non-toxic, find wide demand in technical textiles. Banana, a cellulosic fibre acquired from the banana plant, is a natural fibre that contributes to conserving the environment. The present study envisages extracting banana fabric using natural dyes such as henna, turmeric, and indigo. The banana fabric was pre-mordanted with two types of mordants, i.e., copper sulphate and alum. The banana fabric was dyed with turmeric, henna, and indigo. The henna shows a brown colour, the indigo shows a light blue colour, and the turmeric shows a rich yellow colour. Among those three dyes, turmeric shows the best colour, i.e., a rich yellow colour, and it also shows good antibacterial properties.

The most common type of soil in the valleys of large lowland rivers is Fluvisol or Alluvial soil. In order to determine the biogenity of this type of soil along the Western Morava basin, the representation of the total microflora, fungi, actinomycetes, ammonifiers, Azotobacter sp. and oligonitrophiles was examined. The samples were taken from soils used in the most common two different ways (plough fields and meadows). For that were used standard microbiological methods of inoculation a certain decimal dilution on appropriate nutrient media. No correlation was established between the number of examined groups of microorganisms and the way of land use, nor was there a correlation with chemical properties, primarily with pH and organic matter content. A good representation of Azotobacter sp., as an indicator of soil fertility, was found. Agrochemical analyses showed an acidic to neutral reaction, a low to medium percentage of organic matter, a very low to very high content of easily available phosphorus and easily available potassium.

The intensive form of agricultural production often leads to disruption of physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil. Therefore, in recent years there has been an increasing focus on research and finding ways to preserve the soil with management practices that support soil conservation. The research was conducted on the experimental field of the Institute for Field and Vegetable Crops Novi Sad on Rimski Šančevi. The experiment was set up as a randomized block design. The winter cover crops consisted of the combined intercrops: Triticale (×Triticosecale Wittm. ex A. Camus) and winter pea (Pisum sativum ssp. arvense L.) (T+P), solo winter fodder pea crop (Pisum sativum ssp. arvense L.) (P) and a control without winter cover crops (sole or mixtures)(Ø). The experiment with winter cover crops was divided into two blocks. In the first block, the winter cover crops were chopped and plowed, while treatments in the second block were mowed using a rotary mower and the fodder was removed for feeding ruminants. After ploughing and preparing the soil for sowing, sowing of spring crops (soybean, maize and sudan grass) was carried out on all varieties in the subsequent sowing period. This research aims to determine the influence of different types of winter cover crops and spring crops from subsequent sowing period on the physical properties of Chernozem with a special emphasis on soil structure. It was determined that values of MWD on the treatments where the mixture of cover crops (T+P plowed) ranged from 1.11 mm to 1.39 mm, which indicated a better aggregates stability compared to the control treatments where no cover crops were sown. Due to variable root morphology and water requirements, which may alter soil structure, it is required to pay more attention to the adaptation of management strategies through the use of cover crops as well as the selection of their mixes.
