Authors: Maspul Kurniawan Arif
Published: June 2022

Ideas and community synergy are required in maintaining a creative economy in strengthening not only the local economy but likewise being a role in its development of coffee productivity, profitability and quality growth in the Middle East's coffee value chain to the global level. Visiting the development of specialty coffee in Saudi Arabia in recent years has made it one of the options for the creative economy built on community development in local tourism growth. Critically in Buraidah as one of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network (UCCN) in the field of gastronomy, specialty coffee is entirely resonant with its synergies around the coffee value chain in Saudi Arabia, making it one of the proponents of the local creative economy. This paper is a qualitative descriptive through the literature, observations, site visits and interviews, which were analysed, concluded that the creative economy through coffee in Buraidah has developed more profoundly in strengthening the sustainable economy as a culinary destination in the region. All actors from the coffee value chain in the region are anticipated to be able to sustain its development for a better future generation.

Reform Document of Education (FRDE), creating active schools by relying on environmental potentialities is the goal with utmost significance; therefore, the present study aimed to explore the role that physical and digital environments play in achieving this objective. To this end, a descriptive-correlational design was utilized to probe the perception of teachers and physical education experts (n=302) sampled from a population including 892 personnel of the Education Department of Guilan. Data were obtained using a 5-point Likert scale, and 30 experts judged the face and content validity. The reliability and construct validity of the scale was checked and confirmed by Cronbach’s alpha (α=.87) and exploratory-confirmatory factor analysis. Using SPSS 22 and PLS3 for data analysis, researchers found that physical, social, and digital factors effectively created an active school environment .31, .23, and .29 percent of the variances. Moreover, Social context as the mediating variable was correlated with physical and digital environment .30 and .34, respectively. Relying on the findings of this research trend, policymakers and managers can enrich the physical and digital environments of the schools and move towards accomplishing principle 6.6 of FRDE, which highlights the role of the social environment in an effective educational system.
Yield gap and constraints in adoption of improved lac cultivation technology in Jharkhand
Authors: Pal Govind , Bhagat M. , Bhattacharya A.
Published: June 2022

This paper is based on the analysis of survey data of 500 lac growers in Ranchi and West Singhbhum districts of Jharkhand during two years (2002-2004). On the basis of survey data analysis, the yield gaps were observed to be 38.0, 49.3 and 19.1 per cent of the potential farm yield on the major lac host plants Palas (Butea monosperma), Ber (Zizyphus mauritiana) and Kusum (Schleichera oleosa) respectively. The lower yield gap in case of lac cultivation on Kusum as compared to palas and ber can be attributed to higher realized yield of lac on Kusum. Lac growers could not adopt improved techniques of lac cultivation because of their poor condition. About 87.5% lac growers have adopted Phunki removal, 62.5% have adopted pruning of lac hosts, 42.0% have adopted bundling of broodlac and tagging on plant and 28.0% have adopted selection of good quality broodlac techniques. The adoption of coupe system of lac cultivation, spray of insecticide and use of synthetic net was below 10%. The major constraints faced by the lac growers (more than 50%) in lac cultivation have been identified to be shortage of funds for purchase of input, non-availability of improved inputs in local market, theft of lac, lack of scientific knowledge on lac cultivation, insect mortality due to environmental factors, operational difficulty due to host height, lack of demonstration on farmer’s field, long distance of market and lack of grading facility in the market.

BİLİNMEYEN BİR ROMANCI: ORHAN MİDHAT BARBAROS
Authors: SOLMAZ Betül
Published: June 2022

Avukat Orhan Midhat Barbaros (1894-1964), yirminci yüzyıl Türk edebiyatının ilk romancılarındandır. Yazın hayatına süreli yayınlarla başlayan sanatçı, toplumsal konularda kaleme aldığı köşe yazılarıyla tanınır. 1914’ten itibaren geçim kaygısıyla çeviri alanına yoğunlaşarak -otuz dokuzu Nat Pinkerton külliyatına ait olmak üzere- edebiyatımıza kırk çeviri kazandırır. Bunun yanında kendisi de romanlar, öyküler, hukuk, toplum ve iktisatla ilgili kitaplar kaleme alır. Ürettiği eserlerin çeşitliliğine karşın edebî kimliğini romancı olarak kuran Orhan Midhat, 1917-1925 yılları arasında romancılık faaliyeti gösterir. Birinci Dünya Savaşı’ndan Cumhuriyet’e uzanan bu kısa fakat değişken devrenin izlerini, onun eserlerinde bulmak mümkündür. Romancılığını okuyucusunu her bakımdan eğitmek için kullanan sanatçı, eserlerinin tümünde, millî duygulara sahip, ahlak bakımından gelişmiş, toplum için ideal bir insan tipine ulaşmaya çabalar. Bu nedenle millî duyguları önceleyerek başladığı romancılığını daha bireysel konularla devam ettirir. Toplumun en küçük birimi olan aile kurumuna eğilerek onun aksayan yönlerini işaret eder. Görücü usulü evlilik, nesiller arası çatışma, ahlaki düşkünlük, yanlış Batılılaşma gibi konuları aşk zemininde işler ve figürlerini bir ibret unsuru olarak kullanır. Ayrıca konak yaşamı, dönemin âdetleri, İstanbul’un çeşitli semtleri ve mekânları olay örgüsü içinde yer alır. Son romanı Meçhul Kan, içerik bakımından romancılığının bütününü temsil etmesi ve Cumhuriyet’in ilk yıllarında kaleme alınmış bir Osmanlı eleştirisi olması bakımından son derece kıymetlidir. Ne var ki Orhan Midhat, bugüne ulaşan yedi romanı ve farklı türdeki üretimlerine karşılık literatürde kendine yer edinemez. Bu çalışmada, 2000’li yıllara dek “kayıp” sayılan, günümüzde çok kısıtlı bir çevrece tanınan Orhan Midhat’a ve eserlerine bilinirlik kazandırmak amaçlanmıştır. Öncelikle sanatçının hayatı, edebî kimliği ve eserlerinden söz edilecek, ardından romanları tanıtılarak bir romancı olarak edebiyatımızdaki konumu tespit edilmeye çalışılacaktır.
TEVFİK FİKRET'İN ŞİİRLERİNDE "GİZLİ TAHKİYE"
Authors: SAZYEK Hakan Behcet
Published: June 2022

Modern Türk şiirinin öncü isimlerinden olan Tevfik Fikret (1867-1915), şiirlerinde çok değişik biçimler, yapılar kullanmıştır. Bunlardan biri tahkiyedir. Türk edebiyatında ‘manzum hikâye’ tarzının ilk örneğini vermiş olan Fikret’in bu tarzda kaleme aldığı metinlerin sayısı onbeş civarında kabul edilmektedir. Oysa şairin, tahkiyenin çeşitli ögelerini kullandığı şiirleri, bu konuda yapılmış çalışmaların tespit ettiği sayının çok üstündedir.

Tevfik Fikret, ressam olmasının da etkisiyle, şiirlerinde içeriğe somut, görsel bir eda kazandırmayı çok önemsemiştir. Bu görselliği sağlayan en öncelikli gereç, tahkiyedir. Şair, seksene yakın şiirinde, ‘manzum hikâye’ tarzındakiler kadar belirgin olmamakla birlikte, olay örgüsü, kişi kadrosu, zaman gibi tahkiyenin iç ögelerini kullanmıştır. Ayrıca, diyalog, tasvir, özetleme, zaman atlaması gibi tahkiye teknikleri de barındıran bu şiirleri ‘gizli tahkiyeli’ olarak adlandırmak isabetli olacaktır. Çünkü bu şiirlerde tahkiye ögeleri, metnin içine bir silüet gibi dolaylı ve belirsiz bir şekilde yerleştirilmiştir.

Söz konusu silüet, “belirli bir zaman kesitinde, iki veya daha çok figür çevresinde başlayıp gelişen bir sürecin aksiyon ve yorumlarla birlikte anlatılması”; “belirli bir kesitteki sürecin tek figür çevresinde yürütülmesi”; “anlık veya çok kısa bir süre tanık olma sonucundaki izlenimin kaleme alınması ya da şiire bir ‘olay’ ile başlanması”; “konuşma cümlelerine yer verilmesi”; “kurmaca içerikte bulunan bir muhataba seslenilmesi ve bu hitap temelinde oluşan ifadelerde konuşma edasına dayanılması”; “sürecin içinde tasvir yapılması” şeklinde altı ölçüte ayrıştırılabilmektedir. İlk üç ölçüt, birer form; diğer üç ölçüt ise birer lokal tekniktir. Tevfik Fikret, okur imgeleminde görsel romanesk sahneler yaratan bu uygulama ile şiirinde devingen bir kurmaca ortam sağlamıştır.
TÜRK MİLLİYETÇİLİĞİNİN KADIN ALGISI: MİLLÎ EDEBİYAT DÖNEMİ
Authors: YILDIRIM Farız
Published: June 2022

Nüfusun cinsiyet ve yaş kategorileri, potansiyel ve becerilerine göre önceki egemenlik sistemlerine nazaran hiç olmadığı kadar önem ve meşruiyet kazanması, milliyetçilikle olur. Bu anlamda özellikle kadın ve çocuklar konusunda ihmal edilmiş bir potansiyelin farkına varan üst akıl, nüfusun kitlesel mobilizasyonu ve verimliliği konusunda stratejiler geliştirir. Propaganda bu anlamda başvurulan en önemli araç, sanat ve edebiyat da ideolojik muhtevanın aktarımına en elverişli aygıt durumuna gelir.

Türk milliyetçileri bu potansiyelden en verimli şekilde istifade edebilmek için ilkin kadının mahremiyetini sorunsallaştırarak onu kamusal alanda görünür hale getirmeye çalışır. Millî mesaideki etkinliklerinin arttırılmasına yönelik kampanya bunun bir nevi tatbikatı gibidir. Bu tatbikat aynı zamanda toplumsal cinsiyeti ifşa ederek kadını mahrem bir nesne olarak kurgulayan geleneksel algıyla da mücadele etme imkânı yaratır.

Geleneksel düzende, kadının kamusal alandan uzak tutulmak suretiyle sağlanan beden denetimi, modern milliyetçi tasavvurun onu sokağa çıkarması, erkekle yan yana konumlandırması ile nispeten kontrol dışı kalır. Millî Edebiyat bu noktada devreye girerek mahremiyet anlayışı değişen toplumun yeni davranış envanterini, ideolojik referanslarla yeniden üretmeye başlar.

Bu çalışma Millî Edebiyat hareketinin kimlik inşa stratejisinde kadının yeri ve önemini tespit etme ve inceleme amacı gütmektedir.

Authors: Journal IJSREM
Published: June 2022

Kidney stone disease is one of the major life threatening problem existing worldwide. It is important to recognize the true and exact location of kidney stone. The ultrasound images of kidney comprise speckle noise and are of low contrast which makes the identification of kidney abnormalities a challenging task. Thus, the doctors may find recognition of small stones difficult. Butterfly-net model is a low-complexity convolutional neural network with sparse cross channel connections and with pre-processing techniques for kidney stone detection. IntegratingSerious problems are well approximated with network complexity based on frequency bandwidth rather than input dimension using a butterfly-net with a fully connected neural network. The proposed Butterfly-net obviously embraces the arranged construction in the Butterfly plot as the stacked convolutional layers. In the event that the boundaries are hard-coded as that in the Butterfly plot, Butterfly-net on the whole registers the Fourier coefficients of the info signal with ensured mathematical exactness.

Published: June 2022

Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is legume crop of worldwide importance and due to optimal content of proteins and other essential compounds it has a potential as a functional food. Genetic diversity studies are significant from the point of obtaining information important for breeding process. The goal of present work was to analyze genetic diversity among 34 genotypes of common bean from different countries using 5 SCoT (Start Codon Targeted) markers. Altogether 82 DNA fragments were amplified, out of which 66 fragments were polymorphic with an average of 11 polymorphic fragments per primer. The highest number of polymorphic fragments was detected by marker SCoT 59 (15). The percentage of polymorphism ranged from 57.17% (SCoT 2) to 78.57% (SCoT 19) with an average of 67.3%. PIC values varied from 0.719 (SCoT 19) to 0.886 (SCoT 3) and average PIC value was 0.802. The DI values varied between 0.722 (SCoT 19) and 0.888 (SCoT3), with an average of 0.804. The dendrogram of 34 genotypes of common bean, constructed based on hierarchical cluster analysis separated genotypes into two clusters (I and II). Cluster I was formed by two subclusters. Thirty-three genotypes were included in cluster I and genotype Albena (Slovak Republic), which significantly differed from other genotypes in seed size was included in cluster II. Obtained results support the effectiveness of SCoT markers in the analysis of common bean useful for genotypes differentiating and assessment of genetic diversity in the set of common bean germplasm.
Usability of Organic Wastes in Concrete Production; Palm Leaf Sample
Authors: BAYRAKTAR Oğuzhan Yavuz
Published: June 2022

Palm leaves are vegetal waste that are not widely used by the society, only piled up and causing odors that mix with the environment. Channeling this waste material into the construction industry helps to overcome waste disposal problems as well as promote sustainability. The most important features expected from the buildings are the creation of the most suitable environmental conditions for the products to be stored or the creatures that will live in them, and they can be used safely for a long time. In the construction of the buildings, materials that are the cheapest possible, safe and capable of creating the optimum environmental conditions should be used. The materials to be selected should have sufficient strength and durability, high heat and sound insulation and lightness. Since single-storey buildings are not subject to excessive load, it is important that the thermal insulation is high and light in material selection. Since the widespread use of concrete as a building material in the world, efforts to make concrete light, cheaper and better insulating have gained importance. Lightweight concrete, which is easy to apply, has been an important building material in recent years. With the use of lightweight concrete as a building material, benefits such as economy in terms of material, earthquake resistance, and the elimination of a second insulation material for heat and sound insulation can be achieved. In this study; Experimental study using Portland cement (CEM I), Palm Leaf, CEN standard sand and water mortar production; sample production, curing, some physical and mechanical experiments were carried out in four stages. The usability of palm leaf, which is a vegetable waste, as aggregate in concrete production by replacing it with CEN standard sand at 0, 5, 10, 20, 30 and 40% as well as 10% with cement has been investigated. The study results show that the addition of both ground palm leaf and palm leaf aggregate significantly altered almost all properties of concrete. These changes are at different levels in terms of physical properties. As a result of the study, it was determined that as the amount of foam increased, the spreading diameter increased, whereas palm leaf addition decreased the spreading diameter. It has been determined that the addition of palm leaf decreases the depth of water treatment depending on time, the porosity of the samples with high level of palm leaf addition increases and the compression and bending strength decreases.

Sanayileşmenin tetiklediği bilimsel ve teknolojik gelişmeler yoğun bir kentleşme sürecini başlatmış, bu ise nüfus hızında ve kentsel yapılaşmada artışı beraberinde getirmiştir. Kentsel alanlarda yapı malzemesi olarak kullanılan, beton ve asfalt gibi albedo (yansıtma) değeri düşük yapısal yüzey malzemeleri ısıyı içerisinde hapsederek kent içerisinde hava sıcaklığında artışa neden olmuştur. Bir kentin çevresindeki kırsal alanlara göre daha sıcak olması kentsel ısı adası olgusu olarak nitelendirilmektedir. Bu olgu kentte yaşayan insanları fiziksel ve ruhsal açıdan olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir. İnsanların bulunduğu kentin atmosferik koşullarına karşı uyarılmadığı ve konforlu hissetmeleri Biyoklimatik Konfor olarak tanımlanır. Matzarakis ve Höppe’in oluşturmuş olduğu PET indeksi çizelgesine göre 18. 1 – 23. 0 ̊C sıcaklık değerleri arasında insanların kendilerini daha iyi hissettiği ortaya koyulmuştur. Bu değerlerin artış ya da düşüş göstermesi kentte yaşayan insanlarda ruhsal açıdan daha stresli, çalışma isteğinde düşüş hissetmelerine neden olurken fiziksel açıdan göz yanması, burun kanaması gibi sağlık problemlerini beraberinde getirir. Ele alınan bu çalışmada Akdeniz ikliminin yoğun bir şekilde hissedildiği Kahramanmaraş ilinin biyoklimatik konfor şartları ele alınmıştır. Çalışma alanına ait 1970 -2021 yılları arasında meteorolojik ölçüm verileri bölgedeki meteoroloji istasyonlarından temin edilmiştir. Bu veriler doğrultusunda sıcaklık, bağıl nem ve rüzgâr hızı haritaları oluşturulmuş sonrasında PET indeksi değerleri ile ilişkilendirilmiştir.
The Effects of Precipitation and Temperature on Birth Weight: A Cross-Sectional Study from the Republic of Benin
Authors: Tanou Mariam , Kishida Takaaki , Kamiya Yusuke
Published: June 2022

Climate change, particularly changes in temperature and precipitation, prevents the improvement of maternal and neonatal health (MNH) in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). Pregnant women and newborns in LMICs are considered the most vulnerable to adverse climate conditions, including extreme heat, floods, and droughts. This study examined the effects of precipitation and temperature on birth weight in the Republic of Benin, emphasizing climatic differences between the southern and northern regions. As a cross-sectional study, we pooled four rounds of Benin Demographic and Health Survey (BDHS) data, identifying 19 646 live births. We investigated the effects of precipitation and temperature on birth weight and the likelihood of low birth weight (LBW) newborns using multivariate multilevel linear and logistic regression models. We found that the average precipitation amount during the nine months before birth was positively correlated with higher birth weight in the south and was associated with a lower likelihood of LBW in the north. During the nine months before birth, a heat wave reduced birth weight by 57.0 g in the north. Furthermore, women and newborns in the north were more susceptible to precipitation and temperature, possibly due to food insecurity. Evaluating the MNH consequences of climate change is imperative for many developing countries facing severe climate change threats. Our findings provide an essential benchmark for future policies in Benin.

Podatke smo pridobili z intervjuvanjem treh diplomiranih medicinskih sester, ki imajo vsaj eno leto izkušenj z negovanjem bolnikov na bolnišničnem oddelku. Ugotovili smo, da je varnostna kultura okolje, ki vpliva na varnost bolnikov, odvisna pa je od značajskih lastnosti zdravstvenih delavcev in od vodstva same ustanove. Izkazalo se je, da poleg pomanjkljive izobrazbe tudi delovno okolje, čustveno stanje, delo v izmenah in utrujenost, pomanjkanje nadzora nad kompleksnimi in negotovimi delovnimi pogoji ter delovna obremenjenost medicinskih sester vplivajo na varnost bolnikov. Vsaka zdravstvena ustanova bi morala razviti in izboljšati raven varnostne kulture. Za doseganje tega cilja so potrebne določene spremembe, npr. izobraževanje, osredotočeno na varnostno kulturo, osebna rast vsakegazdravstvenega delavca, sprejemanje odgovornosti in proaktivno vedenje znotraj tima. Pomembna je tudi raba modernih stilov vodenja, upravljanje sprememb in participativno odločanje.

Fitoterapija, to je znanstveno utemeljena uporaba rastlin in iz njih pridobljenih pripravkov za zdravljenje številnih bolezni v sodobni družbi, pridobiva na veljavi kot komplementaren pristop h konvencionalni medicini. Zelo raznolik status fitoterapije v svetu, v EU in tudi v Sloveniji, kjer je fitoterapevtska dejavnost sicer normativno opredeljena z Zakonom o zdravilstvu, pušča vtis, da je to področje na splošno neurejeno. Primerjalna analiza uveljavljenosti fitoterapije doma in po svetu, potrebe in uporaba te metode zdravljenja, pa tudi regulativna orodja, zakonodajni okvir in različne možnosti izobraževanja so potrdila potrebo po sistematičnem pristopu k formalni ureditvi te dejavnosti, še posebej pa potrebo po zagotovitvi ustreznega znanja in krepitvi kompetenc strokovnjakov, ki se ukvarjajo s fitoterapijo. Formalno izobraževanje in definiranje kompetenc je nujno potrebno, da bi lahko fitoterapijo in druge komplementarne metode zdravljenja vključili v konvencionalni model zdravstvenega varstva. V prispevku je na osnovi pregleda literature prikazana  vloga fitoterapije v sodobni družbi s poudarkom na pregledu programov za izobraževanje fitoterapevtov, ki omogočajo njihovo delovanje na področju komplementarne medicine in uradnega zdravilstva.
Country Diagnostic Study – The Kyrgyz Republic
Authors:   Islamic Development Bank Inistitute, Oduncu Arif
Published: June 2022

The Country Diagnostic Study (CDS) for the Kyrgyz Republic uses the Hausmann-Rodrik-Velasco growth diagnostics model to identify the binding constraints being faced in its quest for higher and more sustained economic growth and make recommendations to relax these constraints. Hence, the findings of the CDS can help the Islamic Development Bank in identifying areas where it can have a greater impact and provide an evidence-basis to support the development of the Member Country Partnership Strategy (MCPS). During the last two decades, the Kyrgyz Republic has recorded low performance in economic development. The country recorded only 3.0 percent of average annual Purchasing Power Parity (PPP)-adjusted Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita growth from 2000 to 2019. The Kyrgyz Republic is facing several economic and social problems that are challenging its economic development model. This CDS report shows that the most binding constraints to inclusive and sustainable growth include i) low human capital, ii) poor infrastructure, iii) government and market failures, and iv) high cost of capital. The Kyrgyz development model’s performance is a subject of concern not only for the government and other local stakeholders but also for the technical and financial partners of the Kyrgyz Republic, including the Islamic Development Bank. The MCPS aims to contribute to the global efforts made by the Kyrgyz Republic to meet its economic and social needs through leveraging opportunities offered by the new business model of the Bank. Given the Kyrgyz Republic’s positives, the Bank can consider financing transport, energy and ICT infrastructure projects and supporting manufacturing and agricultural sectors to assist economic growth.
Män som "pappor" och kvinnor som "föräldrar"

It is now 25 years since it became possible for men to take parental leave. However, it is women who still make use of 90% of the days allowed. My argument is that the four most cominon assumptions about the obstacles for men to take leave - traditional sex roles, employers' attitudes, financial reasons, and women's wishes - are not sufficient to explain this phenomenon. To understand the different implications of the use of paren tal leave by men and women we need to consider three social relations: the relation between production and reproduction, the relation of men and women to production and reproduction and the gender relation. Several mechanisms within different social relations can explain attitudes to parental leave. Attitudes can in turn affect the taking of parental leave, but it is only the mechanisms of the gender relation that can explain why women to a much greater extent than men take parental leave. The different positions occupied by men and women within the social gender relation give men freedom of choice whereas women have to adjust to the circumstances in which they and their families find themselves. The flexibility allowed by the parental insurance means different things for men and women. Men have flexibility and can choose if, when and for how long they will be on parental leave. Their freedom of choice presupposes, however, that women are flexible, adaptable and prepared to take the responsibility of parenthood. In other words there are structural differences in men's and women's relation to parenthood. Men are therefore "daddies" whereas women are "parents". This does not necessarily apply at the individual level however. Under certain circumstances women can have flexibility and be "mummies" whereas men can be flexible "parents". Equal use of paren tal leave in it.seII will not have any influence on the social gender relation. What is needed is equality of conditions to start with. Men may have become more family orientated, but apparent changes in masculinities must be considered in the light of men's continuing structural power.

In the name of science: A work of memory. This article presents a case of memory work carried out by five women graduate students in the hope of getting a better understanding of their experiences as women working in the Academy. "Memory work" as used here is a method developed by the group of researchers working with Frigga Haug. The starting point of this article is the authors' written recollection of presenting their scholarly work in seminars. On the basis of these narratives, the authors discuss how scholarship and sexual politics are intertwined, how scientific conventions and rules are interpreted and institutionalised, and how the authors participate in these processes themselves. Through five thematic models interpretations and insights that emerge from memory work are presented. The first theme is the seminar situation and the question of what it is like to be a graduate student. As a second theme experiences of the body and sensuality are discussed, and the third theme focuses on the experience of finding oneself in a scholarly structure that one is in the process of questioning. The fourth thematic model concerns the possibilities for individual agency in connection with seminars. The importance of responsibility and guilt is the fifth theme. The article suggests that memory work is not only a profitable scientific method, but also in itself a liberating process. Describing and naming one's experiences is a prerequisite for the ability to problematize, criticize and in the last resort change an oppressive order of things.

The article analyzes some basic contents of DT applying technology in Education and Training, the current situations, future tendencies, and proposing solutions in the new period.
INFLUENTIAL FACTORS AFFECTING THE DEPTH OF EXCAVATED TRENCH IN UNSATURATED SOILS DUE TO NONLINEAR SUCTION DISTRIBUTION
Authors: Man Nguyen Xuan , Tuyet Dao Van
Published: June 2022

Depth of an excavated trench plays a vital role on stability as well as economic efficency of an open trench. As design and analysis excavation construction method, selection of an appropriate excavated depth value of a trench without support structures is necessary. In practice, excavated trench is usually located above ground water table or under unsaturated soil condition. Therefore, the depth of unsupported trench is significantly affected by unsaturated soil properties, especially suction distribution and physical properties of soil as well. To date, there have been a few theories and research works reported on the method of determining a suitable depth of a trench under unsaturated condition. However, previous works tend to assume that the distribution of soil suction is either constant or linear with depth; as a result of this assumption, the designed results are often overestimated compared to practical results. In this paper, the effect of nonlinear distribution of suction was taken into account to propose an equation to estimate the depth of an excavated trench without support structures. Eventually, an example of numerical computation was executed to figure out the factors that affect the depth of excavated trend considering non linear suction distribution of unsaturated soils.

Self-study is widely regarded as the most effective method of determining a student's learningeffectiveness at the university level. The success or failure of the learning process is highlydependent on the learners' senses, with an awareness of the role and importance of self-studyplaying a minor role. Students benefit from self-study not only in terms of mastering knowledge,skills, and techniques, and developing the appropriate career attitude, but also in terms ofdeveloping their personality, forming habits, and self-study awareness for life. In the currentcontext, with the COVD-19 pandemic still very complicated, the majority of schools have alreadyconverted their teaching models to online or other forms of instruction. This change has asignificant impact on both teachers' teaching quality and students' self-study. This article willanalyze several factors affecting students' self-study capacity, as well as the current state of selfstudy capacity among Binh Duong university students, with the goal of proposing some solutionsfor capacity improvement.
