Authors: Lantang Floranesia 
Published: November 2024

The issue of Papua is a “pebble in the shoe” for Indonesia. Unresolved past human rights violations, discrimination, and poverty remains the spotlight of countries especially the South Pacific Island, not to mention Australia. Given the complexity of this region, Joko Widodo (Jokowi) has done some progress in this Eastern most Provinces. Development and security become the center of Jokowi’s approach, while at the same time slowly progressing on human rights issue. This research will have a particular focus on the policies of Jokowi from his first to second period regarding Papua. Furthermore, this research will discuss the implication of Jokowi’s policies to Papua for Australia-Indonesia bilateral relationship. This research uses descriptive research method with two concepts from international relations: national security and human security. There are two main arguments derived from this topic: First, Jokowi’s approaches in Papua have shown Jakarta’s seriousness in developing Papua both from infrastructure and human resources sectors which aligned with national security and human security concept. Second, Australia must take an opportunity of Jokowi’s openness and approaches in Papua to at least addressing the reality and progress of this region for its public.Bahasa Indonesia Abstract: Isu Papua adalah "kerikil di dalam sepatu" bagi Indonesia. Kemiskinan, diskriminasi, dan bahkan pelanggaran HAM masa lalu selalu menjadi perhatian utama negara-negara baik di Pasifik Selatan, dan juga Australia. Melihat begitu kompleksnya isu Papua ini, Joko Widodo (Jokowi) telah melakukan berbagai progres dengan penekanan pada aspek pembangunan dan keamanan sebagai pusat pendekatan ke Papua, sekaligus secara perlahan menyelesaikan isu HAM di Papua. Penelitian ini berfokus pada kebijakan Jokowi dari periode pertama hingga kedua terkait Papua. Selanjutnya, penelitian ini membahas mengenai implikasi kebijakan Jokowi di Papua terhadap hubungan bilateral Australia-Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian deskriptif dengan dua konsep dari hubungan internasional yaitu keamanan nasional dan keamanan manusia. Dua argumentasi utama yang diangkat dari topik ini adalah: Pertama, pendekatan Jokowi di Papua telah menunjukkan keseriusan Jakarta dalam membangun Papua baik dari sektor infrastruktur maupun sumber daya manusia yang sejalan dengan konsep keamanan nasional dan keamanan manusia. Kedua, Australia perlu mengambil kesempatan dari keterbukaan dan pendekatan Jokowi di Papua untuk memaparkan realita dan progress kawasan ini kepada publik di Australia.
Potensi Ancaman Penggunaan Moda Cryptocurrency Crowdfunding dalam Tindak Pidana Pendanaan Terorisme (Terrorist Financing) Menurut Tipologi Freeman dan Davis [The Potential Threat of the Cryptocurrency and Crowdfunding Modes in Terrorist Financing Criminal Act According to Freeman and Davis Typology]
Authors: Pratomo Muhammad Faiq Adi 
Published: November 2024

This paper examines the threat of the use of cryptocurrency and crowdfunding, and crowdfunding using cryptocurrency, as a newly emergent threat in terrorist financing. It uses the terrorist funding typologies created by Freeman, supplemented by Davis, to identify the threat presented using these modes of financing. It argues for two conclusions: first, that the use of cryptocurrency adds an added layer of security and reliability to funding sourced by traditional actors, such as state transfers and individual donations by rich donors. Second, the use of crowdfunding allows terrorist organizations, especially those in Southeast Asia, to tap a heretofore untapped market in potential funders, especially at the micro level. Taken together, crowdfunding and cryptocurrency present significant threats to the present Combating the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) regime.Bahasa Indonesia Abstract: Tulisan ini menjelaskan ancaman penggunaan mata uang kripto dan urun dana, serta urun dana dengan menggunakan mata uang kripto sebagai ancaman terbaru dalam dunia pendanaan terorisme. Hal ini menggunakan tipologi pendanaan terorisme yang dibuat oleh Freeman, yang dilengkapi oleh Davis, untuk mengidentifikasi ancaman yang dihadapi dengan menggunakan moda pendanaan tersebut. Tulisan ini memiliki dua kesimpulan argumen. Pertama, penggunaan mata uang kripto menambahkan lapisan keamanan dan keandalan untuk pendanaan yang bersumber dari aktor-aktor tradisional, seperti pendanaan dari negara dan donasi individual dari pendonor yang mapan, Kedua, penggunaan moda urun dana memampukan organisasi terorisme, khususnya yang berpusat di Asia Tenggara, untuk memasuki pasar yang sebelumnya sulit dimasuki oleh donator potensial, terutama di tingkat mikro. Jika digabungkan, urun dana dan mata uang kripto menyediakan ancaman yang signifikan terhadap rezim Combating the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) saat ini.
The effectiveness of a digital referral to improve access to Children and Mental Health Services. A prospective observational study with real-world data
Authors: Ganga Rafaela , Santa Kristof , Ali Mustafa , Smith Grahame 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

Background In the UK, children and young people's (CYP) mental health needs are increasing, whilst access to care is worsening. This trend is sharper in the North of England and post-COVID-19. Decentralised paper-based referrals may be the root of increased waiting times for the first appointment with Children and Mental Health Services (CAMHS). Health Information Technologies (HIT) has been shown to successfully simplify access to CAMHS, reduce waiting times, provide anonymous support, and reliable information. Yet, there are concerns that self-referrals put extra pressure on CAHMS, leading to adverse outcomes.
Methods A single-centre prospective observational study with a historical control group (real-world data RWD) was conducted to evidence the effectiveness of "CYP as One" – a digital single point of referral to CAMHS. The study aims to determine the effectiveness of "CYP as One" in reducing waiting times between referral and the first appointment and reducing rejection rates. Intervention 12-month RWD was compared with Control 12-month RWD. Shapiro Wilk and Kolmogorov Smirnov tests determined that data was not normality distributed. Descriptive statistics and non-parametric tests were conducted.
Results Intervention showed an increase in 1,314 referrals, particularly self-referrals (71%). There was an increase in 16.13 days of waiting time in the Intervention (53.89) compared with Control (37.76) (p< .001). The Intervention led to a reduction in waiting time for months 10 (M=16.18, p=9.04E-05), 11 (M=17.45, p=1.38E-08), and 12 (M=31.45, p=1.51E-11). Changes in the number of Accepted, Rejected and Redirected decisions by month and Overall for Control and Intervention. Rejection rates increased due to the increased (108%) volume of referrals.
Conclusions The "CYP as One" might contribute to improving access and reducing waiting times for CYP, albeit further research is needed to corroborate these findings. HIT allows the adequate uptake of CYP into CAMHS via self; parent, and professional referrals. However, the available real-world data did not enable investigations on whether referrals with specific mental health-related conditions affect waiting times and staff time. Regardless of the limitations identified, the Intervention promises to be a comprehensive tool for CAMHS collaboration and, consequently, a unifying domain of access to care for CYP.

Published: November 2024

Abstract

South Africa (SA) grapples with a rising crime rate, which poses challenges to safety and economic growth of the country. Despite the limited literature on pattern-based models in SA, frequent pattern-based models, particularly Frequent Pattern Growth (FP-Growth) and Hyper Structure Mining (Hmine), have demonstrated utility in various research fields. This paper introduces a novel model, Hybrid Pattern-Growth (HP-Growth), which combines the strengths of FP-Growth and Hmine. A comparative analysis of the South African crime statistics (Stats SA crime) dataset’s computational time complexity, scalability, and memory usage revealed that HP-Growth and Hmine outperform FP-Growth. This study establishes association rule thresholds and emphasizes the importance of selecting the most appropriate pattern-based model for generating crime patterns. The most suitable model was then integrated into the developed crime support. The research outcomes can aid law enforcement in strategic resource allocation for addressing crime challenges in SA.

Authors: Alfattani Rami 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

Hybrid manufacturing, combining additive and subtractive techniques, addresses the need for precision, efficiency, and flexibility in modern manufacturing. This study investigates the integration of these two approaches to overcome the limitations of standalone methods, particularly in achieving complex geometries and high-quality finishes. A comprehensive experimental framework was developed, utilizing both additive manufacturing (AM) for initial structure formation and subtractive manufacturing (SM) for refinement. Key findings indicate that the hybrid system reduced production time by up to 50% compared to traditional methods, achieved surface roughness improvements of 70%, and maintained dimensional accuracy within ± 0.5µm. Additionally, material utilization rates exceeded 95%, significantly minimizing waste. This research not only demonstrates the enhanced efficiency and precision of hybrid manufacturing but also introduces standardized protocols for process control and multi-material integration. These contributions suggest hybrid manufacturing as a promising solution for high-value industries such as aerospace and biomedical, while highlighting areas for further advancement in automation and energy efficiency.

Published: November 2024

Abstract

International trade of high-tech products is increasingly embodied in the network structure. Using coreness as an index to measure each country’s position in the international trade network, we examine the impact of a country’s position in the high-tech products trade network on its innovation and the corresponding influencing mechanism. We theoretically derive that, due to network market power, a country with higher coreness has not only more acquisition of innovation funds through international value transfer, but also better innovation performance by dominating the division of production and innovation. We empirically validate the theoretical result, and further reveal the role of the multilateral trade system in the theorized mechanism by using the 2008 financial crisis as a quasi-natural experiment. Our findings from the network perspective have important implications for policy-makers addressing issues under the Sino-US trade conflict.

Abstract

Heatwaves can greatly impact societies, underscoring the need to extend current heatwave prediction lead times. This study investigated multiple machine-learning (ML) model approaches for heatwave occurrence prediction with long lead times of one to five months based on explanatory atmospheric and land surface features. Five ML classifiers were built using Google Earth Engine remote sensing datasets to predict heatwaves at national scale (Sweden) based on 16 features referring to the period of 1989–2019. Extreme Gradient Boosting performed best for lead times of one month (F1-score = 0.63, accuracy = 0.81) and four months (F1-score = 0.54, accuracy = 0.79), while K-Nearest Neighbour was best for lead times of two, three and five months (respective F1-score = 0.63, 0.65, 0.49, accuracy = 0.77, 0.79, 0.78). When applying the SHapley Additive exPlanations technique for model interpretation, land surface features emerged as more impactful heatwave predictors than atmospheric features at longer lead times. More frequent heatwave occurrence was associated with places in Sweden characterized by lower values of geopotential height, latitude, topographical slope, evaporation, precipitation and cropland area, and higher values of average temperature, mean sea level pressure, and southerly and westerly winds. The study also concretely exemplifies how use of this multi-model ML method can enhance predictions and further step-wise improve them, thereby facilitating earlier warning in support of better planning of measures to mitigate adverse heatwave impacts, up to several months ahead of their possible occurrence.
Mechanical decoupling on multiscale heterointerface for customizable and robust strain sensors

Published: November 2024

Abstract

Strain sensors are pivotal for monitoring mechanical deformation across various fields, including robotics, prosthetics and wearable electronics. Crack-based strain sensors are favored among the diverse approaches for their high sensitivity. However, they face significant challenges, such as uncontrollable cracks and interface delamination between functional materials and flexible substrates. Here, we introduce a mechanical decoupling strategy using aluminum-3DLithography (AL-3DLitho), which enables out-of-plane mechanical anchoring and in-plane stress redistribution at the multiscale heterointerface. The introduced out-of-plane anchoring improves the adhesion of functional layers to polymer substrates, preserving electrical integrity even under harsh conditions such as ultrasonic exposure. Additionally, the controlled in-plane strain localization and the enhanced stress intensity factor allow precise adjusting of crack propagation modes and densities, enabling customization of sensing performance. The resulting strain sensor, featuring optimized nanofiber and micropyramid arrays at the multiscale heterointerface, achieves a gauge factor exceeding 100,000 with customizable working ranges from 0.005% to 75% and minimal signal drift (<1%). This ultrasensitive sensor, capable of detecting surface topography with a height resolution of 2.7 μm through indirect contact, offers promising applications in flexible electronics where tactile feedback is critical.

Published: November 2024

Abstract

Organic water pollution poses significant environmental and public health challenges. Fenton reaction process is used as an advanced oxidation process to depolllute water, typically relying on transition metals and effective under acidic conditions of pH 3.0, contributing to secondary pollution. This research presents a Fenton-like process for the first time without applying transition metals that produce multi-oxidative species and are operational around neutral pH conditions. A solution comprising magnesium ions (Mg²⁺), bicarbonate ions (HCO₃⁻), and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) at pH 7.4 generated reactive oxygen species that effectively degrade organic pollutants (e.g. dimethyl sulfoxide and acetamidophenol) in water. Product analysis was conducted using 1H-NMR and HPLC techniques to determine the efficiency of the oxidation process and to identify transformation products. The findings revealed that the active multi-oxidizing agents, hydroxyl radical and carbonate radical or superoxide and carbonate radical, effectively depolluted water. This study is novel in demonstrating that a Fenton-like process can be achieved with Mg²⁺ serving only as a template to facilitate redox reactions rather than participating directly. These findings suggest a more sustainable approach to remediating water pollutants. The mechanisms for generating oxidizing radicals offer potential applications in both environmental cleanup and biological processes.

Published: November 2024

Abstract

Color vision among mammals is diverse and complex, with many physiological and genetic factors affecting spectral sensitivity, the ability to perceive different wavelengths of light. In this study, the color vision of the sugar glider (Petaurus breviceps), a nocturnal, gliding mammal, was examined through a series of behavioral tests, genetic analyses, and immunohistochemistry. This is the first study to classify the color vision capabilities of this species. Sugar gliders demonstrated trichromacy and ultraviolet (UV) sensitivity, the latter of which was further supported by genetic analysis. Visualization of the sugar glider retina exhibited a rod-dominant retina that expresses rhodopsin, short-wavelength sensitive 1 opsin, and long/medium-wavelength sensitive opsin. Diurnal primates were thought to be the only mammals able to visualize trichromatically, however the results of this examination and evidence from a few other marsupial studies provide support for nocturnal trichromacy in Metatheria. Intriguingly, the genetic basis for the medium-wavelength sensitivity in marsupials has yet to be discovered. Our results are evidence of a fourth Australian marsupial that is UV-trichromatic, supporting complex spectral sensitivity and UV vision as benefits to survival in nocturnal environments.
Study on the Isothermal Adsorption/DesorptionCharacteristics and Influencing Factors of Shale Gasin Transitional Facies
Authors: Tang Zejun , Xiong Wei , Guo Wei , Yuan Hang , Li Yong 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

The transitional facies represent a unique geological environment with complex shale gas reservoirs, yet their adsorptionand desorption behavior remains understudied. This study aims to investigate the isothermal adsorption and desorptioncharacteristics of shale gas in these transitional facies, using shale samples under different temperature and moisture conditions.Understanding these processes is crucial for optimizing gas extraction from such reservoirs. Our results reveal that adsorptioncapacity increases with pressure but decreases significantly with rising temperature, with adsorption rates slowing as saturationis approached under high pressure. The desorption rate shows a linear increase with temperature, confirming that highertemperatures promote gas desorption. Additionally, water-saturated shale exhibited reduced adsorption capacity compared todry samples, as water occupies pore spaces and competes with methane molecules. The ternary Langmuir model effectivelycaptures the adsorption/desorption behavior, providing a reliable tool for analyzing gas storage and release in these transitionalfacies. This research offers important insights into the mechanisms controlling shale gas adsorption and desorption, providinga foundation for enhancing extraction efficiency in such complex geological settings.

Abstract

Cardiospermum halicacabum L., a notable species of the genus Cardiospermum, is well-known for its culinary and medicinal properties. Nonetheless, a detailed description of the C. halicacabum chloroplast's phylogeny and genes is still absent. We present the findings of an in-depth investigation of the chloroplast genome of C. halicacabum. The circular, 159,370 bp chloroplast genome of C. halicacabum has a 37.91% GC content. There are 134 genes in the circular genome, comprising 89 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNAs, and 8 rRNAs. There are found to be 28 simple sequence repeats. Comparative chloroplast genome analysis of five related species suggests that Between C. halicacabum and other Sapindaceae species, there are variations in the contraction and extension of the reverse repeat region. Our phylogenetic analysis illustrates C. halicacabum has a relatively close relationship with S. erecta. The chloroplast genome of C. halicacabum has been examined, advancing our understanding of the evolutionary relationships among Sapindaceae.

Abstract

This study aimed to establish the stability conditions for melatonin in solution and to estimate its content in food supplements manufactured and marketed in Tunisia by optimizing and validating an analytical method based on high performance. We began by studying the effect of light on the melatonin content of the solution during storage. The significance of both factors, temperature and storage time of melatonin, was assessed using a complete factorial plan. The dosing method was optimized by considering three factors: the mobile phase, the stationary phase, and the wavelength. The performance of the dosage method has been validated according to the guidelines of the French company of pharmaceutical sciences and techniques (SFSTP). We were able to demonstrate the molecule's photosensitivity and thermolability based on its shelf life. Our dosing technique is both easy to use and reliable in terms of specificity, linearity, accuracy, and fidelity. Significant deviations from the declared strength on the label were found in 66% of supplements. Regarding the health claims, as well as the mention of the vulnerable population, the manufacturers were in the majority not respected. The urgency of structuring the regulatory framework for this type of product is evident.
