Published: December 2022

Objective: this study suggests a multicriteria model for decision-making assistance that, by using spatial representation, can provide decision aid for the traffic management process in a county, hence facilitating improved decision-making. The decision-making process can be supported by multicriteria decision aid technologies and geographic information systems (GIS). Methodology/Approach: A multicriteria decision-making model is developed to categorize the city's roads according to their importance to the population's safety. For classification, the PROMSORT method (PROMETHEE Sorting) is proposed, and the results are reflected in the GIS. Results: It presents a numerical application for the city of Mossoró/RN, rating the roads and providing information for public managers' decision-making. Limitations: the model application is contingent upon the efforts of managers who can begin working in the traffic and urban mobility management sector after each public election to comprehend its significance. Originality/Value of the article: The GIS application generates a viable study method by facilitating the decision-making process and allowing the geographic visualization of data pertaining to the region under study.

Nyayu Khodijah melakukan penelitian tentang profesionalisme guru dalam penerapan model-model pembelajaran inovatif pada Rintisan Sekolah Bertaraf Internasional (RSBI) dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhinya. Penelitian dilakukan di SMPN 9 Palembang, dengan menggabungkan faktor kualitatif dan faktor kuantitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: 1) profesionalisme guru dalam penerapan model-model pembelajaran inovatif masih belum sesuai harapan. Hal ini terlihat baik dari aspek pengetahuan maupun keterampilan sebagian guru yang masih rendah dalam menerapkan model-model pembelajaran inovatif. Hasil lainnya ada dua faktor yang mempengaruhi penerapan model-model pembelajaran inovatif, yaitu rendahnya kualitas pelatihan/workshop yang diikuti dan rendahnya komitmen dan motivasi guru untuk menerapkan model-model pembelajaran inovatif. Karenanya, direkomendasikan pada pemerintah agar pemerintah meningkatkan kualitas penyelenggaraan pelatihan/ workshop bagi guru dan melakukan upaya-upaya nyata dalam meningkatkan komitmen dan motivasi guru untuk mau menerapkan model-model pembelajaran yang innovatif.

Case Report - Fibrosarcoma of Ovary
Authors: Nira Julia Akhter 
Published: December 2022

Fibrosarcoma of ovary, a tumour arising do novo or secondary to malignant transformation of benign fibromatous tumours, is an extremely rare malignant sex cord stromal tumour of ovary. As on today, the total number of reported cases throughout the world is not more than hundred, There is no clearcut diagnostic criteria, prognostic factor and treatment modalities. Usually it presents as unilateral solid tumour. It can occur at any age though postmenopausal diagnosis is more frequent. Majority of the patients present with vague abdominal pain and a lump in lower abdomen arising from ovary. Ultrasonographic findings usually reveals unilateral solid homogenous tumour in ovary with uneven echo enhancement and increased vascularity. Serum tumor markers and sex hormones such as CA-125 usually found within normal levels. Peroperative frozen section study often concludes into wrong diagnosis, postoperative histopathological diagnosis usually reveals spindle cells with high mitotic activity with Background of fibrous tissue. Depending on mitotic activity, cellular atypia associated with haemorhage and necrosis, it is differentiated from benign fibroma with mitotic activity. Immunohistochemistry findings may be positive for vimentin, á-inhibin, SMA, estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor. Ki-67 positive rate is associated with degree of severity of malignancy i.e, grading and prognosis. Our case was having the above features and was confirmed postoperatively by histological and later by histochemistry with positive Vimentin and Ki-67. As there were not enough cases to conclude a final treatment protocol, so far treated cases revealed total cytoreductive surgery followed by postoperative chemotherapy has the better prognosis. A round, solid unilateral heterogenous ovarian tumor should be taken in differential diagnosis of ovarian fibrosarcoma. As this is an extremely rare tumour of the ovary, there is usually no rise of specific tumuor marker, no conclusive diagnostive criteria available at present, clinical studies involving multicentered approach associated with studies at molecular level is a prime requirement for the gynaecologist to diagnose and treat in a better way in future.

Aportes multiculturales a la configuración del espacio público del Parque Colón
Authors: Marte Jorge 
Published: December 2022

La función sociocultural de la arquitectura suele estar vinculada a los contenidos que se pueden codificar y expresar en su envolvente. Estos elementos son percibidos por las distintos grupos sociales desde el espacio público, que es donde se producen los procesos de construcción de la memoria colectiva, la imagen de la ciudad y los escenarios urbanos. El caso de la Ciudad Colonial de Santo Domingo no escapa a esta realidad. Aunque ocupa algo menos del 1% del territorio de la capital dominicana, este singular centro histórico mantiente una vitalidad cultural sobresaliente debido a las relaciones que se establecen entre su arquitectura y el espacio urbano que la contiene. El presente artículo procura analizar las relaciones existentes entre algunas de las más relevantes piezas de la arquitectura que define el emblemático espacio urbano del Parque Colón, antigua Plaza Mayor, de la Ciudad Colonial de Santo Domingo. Además, se presentan algunos de los cambios manifestados en su proceso evolutivo como espacio de actuación cultural colectiva y evidencias de la permanencia de usos ancestrales que conviven con la potencia de una dinámica social cambiante, que ha recibido los influjos de algunas de las diversas expresiones culturales que han incidido en la configuración de la dominicanidad.

Published: December 2022

This explanatory sequential mixed method study aims to determine the students’ attitudes toward the main inhibiting factor of English writing activity and skill development supported by the teacher’s perception. Beyond writing being one of the most complex languages and communication skills to be mastered, the success or failure of students in writing could also be influenced by various factors. This study discusses five factors: affective factor, writing apprehension, linguistic factor, writer’s block, and tactical factor. The eleventh-grade students and a senior English teacher of one public school in Malang became the participants in the study. This study has two types of data: qualitative and quantitative. The quantitative data are collected first, then qualitative data to support explaining or elaborate on the quantitative result. This research uses two instruments: 1) a closed-ended questionnaire to obtain quantitative data on learners’ perceptions, and 2) a semi-structured interview to draw the teacher’s perspective. The qualitative data analysis was conducted using statistical analysis and supported by statistical software, SPSS. A descriptive analysis was applied to analyze and describe the qualitative data. The main inhibiting factor in English writing activity faced by the eleventh graders of Senior High school 1 Malang was the writer’s block factor related to students’ motivational block at the beginning or during the writing process and their difficulties in developing and connecting different ideas.

Published: December 2022

The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of pornography exposure towards female university students in Malaysia’s setting. Data is collected from 875 female university students from three public universities in Malaysia. Quantitative research methodology is used in this study, utilising closed-ended questionnaires as the instrument. Raw data is analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings of this study show that there is a moderate positive relationship between pornography exposure and sexual activities among female university students. As hypothesised, there is also a positive relationship between pornography exposure and sexual desires among female university students. Furthermore, the association between pornography exposure and permissive sexual attitude among female university students is moderately positive. These results replicate the outcomes of past research studies even though respondents in this study are all female. The findings of this study enhance the understanding of pornography exposure and its influence towards female university students. It could be used as reference for the future development of strategies and intervention programs to reduce and mitigate its negative consequences.
Implementation in Java of Algorithms for Semidefinite Optimization
Authors: Darvay Zsolt , Garfield Adrienne 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
We discuss the possibility of solving the semidefinite optimization problem using interior-point algorithms. We present the primal and dual semidefinite programming problems, and then determine the interior-point condition and the optimality criteria. We analyze the central path system and the modification of this, using the method of algebraically equivalent transformation. We use the Nesterov-Todd scaling technique to obtain the proper search directions. We give a modified version of the Nesterov-Todd step interior-point algorithm based on the implementation point of view. We present some numerical results based on a code implemented in the Java programming language. We compare the results obtained for the identity map and the square root function within the framework of the algebraically equivalent transformation technique.

Authors: Imre Kocsis , Dóra Sipos 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
We have a decades-long tradition of examining the operation and maintenance issues of mechanical engineering systems at the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Debrecen. In the last decade, technical diagnostic research has come to the fore, especially bearing diagnostics, a lot of experience has been gathered in this field and many results have been achieved. With the development of the tools of technical diagnostics, the presentation of the topic at all levels of engineering education, and the establishment of industrial relations, an environment has been created in which it is possible to answer the current questions on the topic. Technical diagnostics, which is largely applied informatics (and mathematics) – together with several other engineering topics – also raises educational questions, which we intend to answer by transforming some elements of the training.
Atividade antibacteriana in vitro de extratos etanólicos e aquosos de <em>Schinus terebinthifolia</em> (aroeira-vermelha) e <em>Cymbopogon nardus</em> (citronela) frente à <em>Staphylococus epidermidis</em> e <em>Staphylococus aureus</em>

Published: December 2022

A resistência bacteriana (RAM) é considerada um grave problema de saúde pública mundial, e tem ocasionado a dificuldade de tratamento de diferentes patologias microbiológicas. Segundo a Organização Pan-Americana da Saúde (OPAS) em 2021, a pandemia desencadeada pelo novo Sars-CoV tipo 2 elevou os índices de resistências microbiana, relacionado a intensa atividade hospitalar e uso de antimicrobianos, além da elevação no período de internação. A fim de buscar novas formas terapêuticas que rompam com a elevação de RAM, a busca por novos agentes terapêuticos a partir de plantas medicinais vem se tornando promissora. Dessa forma, dentre as plantas conhecidas com ação medicinal para o tratamento de doenças infecciosas, têm-se Schinus terebinthifolia (aroeira-vermelha) e Cymbopogon nardus (citronela) que possuem poucos dados na literatura sobre sua química e avaliação da atividade antibacteriana. Portanto, o presente trabalho visa avaliar o potencial inibitório dos extratos etanólicos e aquosos de S. terebinthinfolia e C. Nardus frente à S. aureus e S. epidermidis. Os extratos etanólicos e aquosos foram obtidos das folhas (citronela e aroeira-vermelha) e cascas (aroeira-vermelha). As concentrações estudadas foram de 1mg/mL, 0,5mg/mL e 0,25mg/mL para S.epidermidis e 5mg/mL, 1mg/mL e 0,5mg/mL para S. aureus. Não foi observada a inibição por nenhum dos extratos sejam folhas ou cascas para S. epidermidis. Por outro lado, para o patógeno S. aureus foi observado a inibição pelo extrato etanólico das folhas de aroeira-vermelha na contração de 1,0 mg/mL (halo inibibitório de 7mm) e em 5,0 mg/mL (halo de 9mm). Cabe ressaltar que o estudo demonstra que as espécies vegetais investigadas podem contribuir com a descoberta e desenvolvimento de novas terapias antimicrobianas. Entretanto, suas composições químicas detalhadas e suas atividades microbianas devem ser melhor exploradas para que se obtenha informações precisas sobre as espécies abordadas.

Published: December 2022

Since the main purpose of building retaining walls is to hold up the slopes, the calculations are important during the design process. Although static loads that affect retaining walls are generally taken into consideration, dynamic effects should also be marked in our country located in the earthquake zone. Within the scope of this study, stability checks were performed by taking the effects to the retaining walls subjected to static and dynamic loads and wall designs were also made.
In this study, behavior of retaining walls constructed in saturated clay soil and water-saturated sand soil have been determined under static and dynamic loads. Analyses of static and dynamic behavior of gravity and cantilever walls have been done by Plaxis 2D software packet program. The heights of the walls are selected such as 5.0 m, 10.0 m and 15.0 m. Active earth pressures are calculated by using Rankine active earth pressure theory. Factor of safeties such as overturning, sliding and bearing capacity are selected as 2.0, 1.5 and 3.0, respectively. Three different earthquake loads such as Van, Turkey, Petrolia-California, USA and Volcano-Hawaii, USA are chosen to determine the dynamic behavior of walls. Records of earthquake loads were taken from “United States Geological Survey” (USGS) official web site. Format of earthquake records is “strong motion CD” (.smc) due to Plaxis 2D software packet program.
The results of analyses done in the saturated clay showed that 5.0 m and 10.0 m heights of retaining walls can be safely constructed in the earthquake zones having the magnitude up to 7.0. 15.0 m height of retaining walls cannot be safely constructed due to the insufficient wall dimensions. The results of analyses done in the water-saturated sand soil showed that 5.0 m height of retaining walls can be safely constructed in the earthquake zones having the magnitude up to 7.0. While the 10.0 m height of retaining walls can be safely constructed in the earthquake zones having magnitude of 6.0, it cannot be constructed in the earthquake zones having magnitude of 5.0 due to the earthquake acceleration. While the 15.0 m height of retaining walls can be safely constructed in the earthquake zones having magnitude of 6.0, it cannot be safely constructed in the earthquake zones having magnitude of 5.0 and 7.0.
