| Electrification through Renewable Energy in Nigeria an Exploration of Viable Technology Options Beyond Solar PV | Author : Daberechi Emezue | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Nigeria has an electrification rate of 54%, with many of those who are connected to the grid experience severe power outages. The Energy Commission of Nigeria intends to address this challenge with the use of renewable technologies. This paper explores the viability of solar PV, biofuel, wind, and small-scale hydro as renewable energy options for electrifying Nigeria. I find that solar PV, biofuel and small-scale hydro show exciting potential in Nigeria, while wind energy has much less potential due to low wind speeds in the country. Ultimately, renewable technologies need to be considered based on the community in question, instead of attempts at a one-size-fits-all approach to electrifying every community in the country. However, hybrid systems combining various renewable technologies might just be the ideal solution to electrifying rural communities and getting the electrification rate in Nigeria to a hundred percent.

| Factors Affecting Poverty in Central Java Province for the Period 2017-2022 | Author : Gustina Yusuf, Mustofa | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Poverty is a serious issue that is hard to ignore in many Indonesian provinces, especially the province of Central Java. This study uses secondary data in the form of a datapanel with cross-section 35 districts / cities and time series for 6 years to measure four independent variables—the city minimum wage (UMK), open unemployment, the human development index (HDI), and foreign investment—and one dependent variable—the poverty variable (Y). The goal is to determine the factors that affect poverty in the province of Central Java. This studys data analysis technique is panel data regression with a Fixed Effect Model (FEM) approach, which is handled with version 12 eviews. Because the District Minimum Wage (UMK) variable had a probability value of 0.0001 < 0.05 and a coefficient value of -5.73000, the studys findings demonstrated that it had a negative and substantial impact on poverty. With a prob value, the Open Unemployment variable statistically significantly and favorably affects poverty. 0.0000 less than 0.05. Furthermore, because the HDI variable has a prob value, research has demonstrated that it significantly and negatively affects poverty. the HDIs ability to lower the number of people living in poverty (0.0008 < 0.05). However, because the Foreign Investment variable has a low value, it was unable to demonstrate that it had an impact on poverty. The results indicated that the poverty rate was unaffected by the amount of foreign direct investment, with 0.7696 > 0.05. The studys overall findings demonstrate that 56.8% of poverty can be described by the four independent factors, with the remaining 43.2 percent being explained by variables not included in the research model.

| Effect of Aeration Time on Chlorella vulgaris Growth | Author : Aliyah Devi Maysitha, Harmin Sulistiyaning Titah | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Microalgae is a raw material used in many different sectors and is helpful in absorbing carbon dioxide. C. vulgaris is one of best candidates as an additional material for biofuel. Biofuel is made in part from the fatty acids found in C. vulgaris. Thus, more research is required to identify the variables that can spur its growth. Aeration time is one of the most significant growth factors. In this research, experiments were carried out with differences in aeration time between 12 hours and 24 hours. Some of the fixed variables used are an air flow rate of 2 L/minute, 20 ppt of salinity, and a light intensity of 6,000 lux. Observations were made every day for 14 days. Measurements of the solutions pH, temperature, and carbon dioxide content in the reactors air were made, along with the density of C. vulgaris cells. According to the observation data, C. vulgaris grew more effectively in the reactor that had 24-hours aeration. The peak day occurs on the tenth day, while the required adaptation phase lasts six days. Up until the peak day, the microalgae growth rate was 1.59 cells/mL.day.

| Management and Utilization of the Culture of Customary Villages as “Local Wisdom” in Tourism Development in Bali | Author : Johannes Ibrahim Kosasih, Ni Luh Made Mahendrawati, I Wayan Rideng, Dewa Gede Wibhi Girinatha | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Indonesia is a country that has many tourism provinces, one of which is Bali Island. One of the factors that supports the development of tourism in Bali is local wisdom. The purpose of this study is to determine How the management and utilization of Traditional Village Culture as “local wisdom” to support tourism development in Bali and What are the inhibiting factors in the management and utilization of Traditional Village Culture as “local wisdom” can play a role in supporting tourism development in Bali. This study uses the type of empirical legal research. The researchers found several obstacles that became obstacles, especially related to the availability of land or land that will be used as the location for the construction of tourism facilities and also the communitys concern about the transfer of ownership of customary land to investors and the concern about the use of customary land that is not in accordance with local cultural values. that has the potential to damage the environment and the sustainability of Balinese traditions because in reality, Customary Land for the Traditional Village Community in Bali is their identity and identity that has been passed down from generation to generation. Therefore, indigenous peoples who act as guardians of local culture are expected to continue to develop their knowledge by paying attention to contemporary issues that require adaptation to solve the problems at hand. To ensure that the management and utilization of traditional village culture in Bali to support sustainable tourism does not damage the natural beauty and culture of Bali, investment can be focused on the development of environmentally friendly facilities and the implementation of programs to promote cleanliness and environmental conservation. By linking tourism investment with Balinese culture, it will increase its added value because tourists can not only enjoy the natural beauty, but also Balinese culture. This provides a great opportunity for Bali to attract investors and foreign tourists visiting Bali.

| The Concept of Unlawful Act with the Strict Liability Model in Consumer Dispute Resolution in Indonesia | Author : Abdul Azis Muhammad, Sodikin | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection regulates legal efforts to resolve consumer disputes through the courts. The lawsuit for damages is based on an unlawful act. The problem is how the concept of unlawful acts is a strict liability model for demanding compensation. The research method used is normative legal research. The results of this study explain that legal remedies through the concept of unlawful acts with this absolute liability model are by interpreting Article 19 paragraphs (1) and (3) of Law Number 8 of 1999. The concept of an unlawful act with a strict liability model is a plaintiffs obligation to prove the existence of a loss without having to prove a mistake. The recommendation is that the Government and the DPR immediately revise Law Number 8 of 1999 by strictly regulating unlawful acts as a legal norm in the law.

| Power Transfer Capability Enhancement of The Nigerian 330kV Transmission Network with SVC FACTS Controller | Author : Andikan K. Ekpa, Uduak J. Essien, Nsikak U. Akpan | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :The lack of installation of generation stations has affected the transmission system of the Nigerian power network as the load demand increases. This has led to increased power losses and power congestion on the lines which has affected the available transfer capacity (ATC) of the power system network. Due to these increasing issues, SVC FACTS controller was utilized in this paper to improve ATC. The ATC of the system without FACTS controller was obtained after modeling the system using the data obtained from NCC osogbo with NEPLAN software. The relationships between the cumulative distances and the ATC values for each line were obtained and the best polynomial order being the seventh order at R-square of 99.08% was optimized with genetic algorithm where the optimal ATC was 74.31MW at summative distance of 954.5km which was on line 8 (Benin TS to Oshogbo TS) with SVC FACTS implemented at Osogbo TS. The introduction of the compensator reduced the reactive power losses by 32%, real power losses by 36% and improved on the ATC by 18%.

Hence there is need to find alternatives to river sand and one of the major materials locally available is lateritic soil commonly called laterite. It has been successfully used partially or wholly to replace sharp sand in concrete. This study investigated the relationship between the cube compressive strength and cylinder compressive strengths of laterized concretes made with various combinations of laterite and river sand. Laterized concretes of 1:1½:3 mix proportions were prepared with sand partially replaced with laterite at 0%, 20%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 80% and 100% at a water/cement ratio of 0.55. Granite of 20mm maximum size was the coarse aggregate used; batching was done by weight. A total of 84 cubes and 84 cylindrical specimens were prepared for testing after 3, 7, 21 and 28 days respectively. At each replacement level, the cube crushing strength as well as the cylinder crushing strength of the specimens was determined for proper comparison. At 7 days, the cylinder crushing strength was found to be 72% of the cube strength while for 14, 21 and 28 days they were 77%, 80% and 80% respectively. |

This beach has fine white sand and stretches quite wide, allowing various beach tourism activities to be carried out. It is essential to measure tourist perceptions of a tourist destination because tourist perception is a form of assessment of the existence of tourism that aims at the development of future destinations and helps guide beach managers to make decisions in pursuit of sustainable beach tourism. Some factors that influence tourists perception of choosing a beach include attractions, accessibility, and amenities. This research aims to provide scientific information on tourists perceptions of the Kurenai Beach tourist area as a first step towards sustainable tourism management. Tourist perceptions were obtained through incidental interviews with 120 tourists. Tourist perception is measured on five components: the physical condition of facilities and infrastructure, accessibility, tourist attraction, tourist infrastructure, and the quality of tourist areas. Data analysis in this study used the Likert scale to determine tourists perception of the existing conditions of Kurenai Beach tourism. The results showed that, in general, tourists perceptions of the current conditions of Kurenai Beach tourism were on good criteria, with a total percentage value of 67.4%. The tourist attraction component has the highest perception value, and the physical condition component of facilities and infrastructure has the lowest perception value. The low achievement of the value of tourist perception of the existing condition of Kurenai Beach needs special attention in the context of the sustainability of this tourism in the future.

| The Exponential-based Carbon Credit Cap in Carbon Cap-and-Trade Markets | Author : Fidelis Mukudi, Justus Mile | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :The concept of carbon markets as developed in 1997 by the Kyoto Protocol was a good idea whose adoption and implementation by all counties and states would have significantly reduced the rate of emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The Carbon markets were proposed to be based on cap-and-trade whose forces of supply and demand would discourage the increase or steady emission of greenhouse gases and force companies to, gradually, revert to the use of clean energy in production. This would promote the net zero carbon emission target. The carbon markets were designed to have a cap whose nature is a specific number for all entities. The number represents the carbon quantity whose regulator would keep reducing until the net zero carbon is achieved. This nature of the cap encourages large emitters of greenhouse gases to shift to other jurisdictions that have soft regulations. It also encourages restructuring into smaller companies whose net emissions could be almost the same or more than before. In this paper, we have proposed an exponential-based cap that would leave little or no room for such market strategies. We have also demonstrated how the proposed cap can be implemented.

| Institutional Projects of Diversity Attention versus Regular Didactic Methodology Adapted to Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder | Author : PhD. Manuel Ojea Rúa | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :The teaching and learning of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) requires the design of diversity projects at the different institutional levels of the educational centre. However, if these projects are not well adapted to the specific needs of the students, they will not achieve the expected effective results. In a study conducted with a total of 145 participants from different schools, it was shown that the presence of specific institutional educational projects was not a sufficient condition to respond effectively to the needs of the participants, whose curricular and social improvements were not shown to be significant (sig: .66). Even in the absence of these high-scale projects, when the usual methodology was well adapted to the specific needs of students with ASD, the improvements found in the academic and social, that´s coded as dependent variable (DV): improving, domains were highly significant (sig: .00) in terms of the use of meaningful didactics based on the creation of networks of relationships between informative content or highly meaningful learning. Now, the interactive constant of both components, i.e. the intersection of a project design when these have been appropriately adapted to the particular needs, then both variables became the explanatory variance of the academic and social of DV of students with ASD (constant t for the sum of nodal relationships + project: 3.70 (sig: .00), to which was added the explanatory variance of the students age intervals (constant t for the sum of nodal relationships + project + age: 4.07, sig: .00): 3.70 (sig: .00), to which was also added the explanatory variance of the students´age intervals (constant t for the sum of nodal relationships + project + age: 4.07, sig: .00). 70 (sig: .00), to which the explanatory variance of the students´ age intervals were also added (constant t for the sum of nodes + project + age: 4.07, sig: .00). In conclusion, the design of general institutional projects, even if they cover all levels of education, are not effective on their own unless they are specifically tailored to the particular needs of the target students variable: “improving”.

| Population Changes Under the Impact of Industrialization in Vietnam: A Case Study of Binh Duong Province | Author : Pham Van Thinh | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Population change is a key component of Vietnams economic development paradigm. However, in each locality, population shifts can be stimulating while also posing hurdles to socioeconomic development programs. This article assesses population changes in Binh Duong province and suggests plans for development and population control. The findings suggest that Binh Duong has a diversified population and is constantly receiving new population classes. Binh Duongs population increased the most rapidly between 1997 and 2023, following a centuries-long steady pace. This is also a time of dramatic demographic change, with the population becoming more multi-ethnic, multi-regional, multinational, and multicultural. Binh Duongs socioeconomic development successes reflect the contributions of all segments of the community, with immigrants playing a significant role.

| Global Diversity Character Habituation Profil Pelajar Pancasila in Islamic-Based Schools from the Perspective of Pierre Bourdieu and Clifford Geertz | Author : Yeni Susanti, Ravik Karsidi, Ahmad Zuber | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :This research is based on the phenomenon of conflict with a background of differences. Indonesia, as a multicultural country that has the ideology of Pancasila and Bhinneka Tunggal Ika, in fact still often experiences discrimination, domination, and other problems that end in conflict and violence. Indonesias cultural wealth in the form of local wisdom is now starting to be eroded due to the influence of globalization. Society began to focus on Western cultures. This research aims to describe the process of habituating the character of global diversity in the younger generation, especially students through educational institutions. Based on the theory of Pierre Bourdieu and Clifford Geertz, the researcher tries to describe the implementation of strengthening the global diversity character of the Profil Pelajar Pancasila in Islamic-based schools in the city of Surakarta. This research is research with a descriptive qualitative approach. The results of this research explain that Profil Pelajar Pancasila is a competent lifelong learner, has character, and behaves according to Pancasilas values. In connection with Pierre Bourdieus theory, educational institutions are referred to as arenas (fields). Furthermore, global diversity includes openness and tolerance towards foreign cultural diversity while still respecting culture. This concept is by Clifford Geertzs theory that culture is a symbolic system, so cultural processes must be read, translated, and interpreted. The success of characterizing global diversity is influenced by family socialization and teacher example, both of which, according to Pierre Bourdieu, are structural actors/agents and are influenced by social heterogeneity which becomes social capital.

The researchers aimed to see the effect of administering sapodilla leaf extract cream (Manilkara zapota) on IL-6 and TGF-ß levels in Wistar rats with sunburn. Experimental study with a post test only control group design using a total of 30 mice as experimental animals, divided randomly into 4 treatment groups consisting of a control group, a placebo group, a sapodilla leaf cream group with a dose of 25% and a 50% cream group. Mouse skin tissue exposed to UV was analyzed using the ELISA method to determine the levels of IL-6 and TGF-ß. There was no significant difference in the average IL-6 levels between treatment groups with the one way anova difference test, a p value of 0.25 (p0.05), there was a significant difference in the average TGF-ß levels for each group with a p value of 0.005 (P0.05), Manilkara zapota leaf extract cream had a significant effect on TGF-ß levels at a dose of 50%. Administration of Manilkara zapota leaf extract cream has a dose-dependent effect on IL-6 and TGF-ß levels in skin tissue of mice exposed to UV.

| The Effect of Sapodilla Leaf Extract (Manilkara Zapota L.P Royen) on IL-1 and TNF- a Expression in Male White Rats Wistar Strain Induced with UVB Light | Author : Dina Utari Almi, Hadi Sarosa, Setyo Trisnadi | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Excessive UVB exposure causes health problems in humans, the effect on the skin is molecular and cellular changes. Sunburn is the most obvious acute clinical effect, resulting in the production of TNF-a by keratinocytes, IL-1 is a cytokine that influences TNF-a. Skin wounds release various damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) which will activate inflammatory signaling pathways such as NLRP3 inflammasomes and toll-like receptors (TLRs) which cause increased production of inflammatory cytokines. The aim of this study was to examine the anti-inflammatory effect of Manilkara zapota leaf extract which was assessed based on the expression of IL-1 and TNF-a in Wistar rats exposed to UVB. Post-test only control group design experimental research using rats (Rattus norvegicus) as research objects, divided into 4 groups, namely (K1) control rats without treatment, (K2) rats exposed to UVB light then given placebo cream, (K3) rat group exposed to UVB light then given 25% sapodilla leaf extract cream, and (K4) mice were exposed to UVB light then given 50% sapodilla leaf extract cream. The average expression of IL-1 using the One-Way ANOVA test was 0.197 (p0.05), which means there was no significant difference in the average expression of IL-1 between groups. Meanwhile, the average TNF-a expression between groups was 0.036 (p0.05), the results showed that there was a significant difference in the average TNF-a expression between groups, TNF-a expression using the Post Hoc LSD test of sapodilla leaf extract cream 50% dose (K4) reduced TNF-a expression to a lesser extent than K1 or K2. Administration of leaf extract cream (Manilkara zapota) affected the expression of TNF-a, but did not affect the expression of IL-1 in a mouse model experiencing sunburn. |
| Height, Push-Off Angle, Explosive Power: Do they Correlate with Volleyball Athlete Jumping Performance? | Author : Faidillah Kurniawan, Novi Resmi Ningrum, Martinez Edison Putra | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Background and Study Aim: Jump performance is the main asset in attacking volleyball. Jump performance is influenced by various factors that affect this indicator, such as body balance, upper and lower body coordination, as well as explosive power. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between height, push-off angle, explosive power, and jumping performance in volleyball student athletes.
Material and Methods: The method used was a correlational, 7 male volleyball student athletes as samples (age = 21.00 ± 1.732 years, height = 167.86 ± 1.864 cm). Sampling technique used is purposive sampling, Shapiro-Wilk and Levenes test to determine normality and homogeneity. Data calculations were processed using the help of IBM SPSS version 26.0., with decision making p < 0.05.
Results: Variable Push-Off Angle and Explosive Power show significant results (p < 0.05). The Pearson correlation value for Push-Off Angle is -0.781, while the correlation value for Explosive Power is 0.908. Conversely, the variable Height does not show significant results (p > 0.05), with a Pearson Correlation value of -0.334. The findings indicate that the aspect of Explosive Power provides a significant contribution with a positive relationship. This is followed by the aspect of Push-Off Angle, but the results show that this aspect provides a moderate contribution with a negative relationship. Additionally, the aspect of Height shows a negative relationship and a low contribution value.
Conclusions: The Studys findings conclude that Push-Off Angle and Explosive Power have a significant correlation and play a crucial role in enhancing Jump Performance. However, Body Height does not exhibit a significant correlation with Jump Performance. These findings also conclude that the aspect that plays a crucial role in jump performance is explosive power.

| Application of SSSC for Voltage Stability Improvement in the Nigerian 330 kV Transmission System using Particle Swarm Optimization Technique | Author : Uduak J. Essien, Joshua Odion, Andikan K. Ekpa | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Load imbalance has always been a major cause of voltage instability of the power system network and increase in voltage instability affects the power system reliability. In this paper, static synchronous series capacitor (SSSC) FACTS device was implemented to improve the voltage stability in the Nigerian 330 kV transmission network using particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique. Modelled power system network in the power system analysis toolbox (PSAT) is simulated to determine the existing power flow analysis and the level of instability in the power system generation plants situated in the Northern region. The outcome of the power flow is thereafter, optimized with PSO by generating the relationship with a high prediction accuracy between voltage at each location and an inter-linked transmission line distance of the 330kV. The model was generated with least square method and the high prediction accuracy determination was carried out with R-square value of the polynomial order. The best model was optimized and the entire computations were carried out in MatLab resulting in the determination of the optimal location which was between Jebba transmission and Shiroro generation stations. SSSC FACTS controller was implemented on the optimized transmission line and the simulation results showed that the introduction of SSSC improved the voltage stability of the power system network.

| The Effect of Three Depths of Mechanical Seed Drill (Gaspardo SC-250) on the Performance of Vicia Faba L. Bean for Yield Characteristics and Components | Author : Murad Abdullah Abdul Qader, Suzan Tahseen Muhammad Amin | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Current study was conducted on a farm in two sites: the center of Kirkuk Governorate and Hawija District, during the 2022–2023 agricultural season. It focused on two factors: the seeding depths of the Gaspardo SC-250 machine (at 2, 3, and 6 cm) and three varieties (local, Yildiz, and Aquadulce). The land was divided according to a randomized complete block design (RCBD) according to a split-plot system with three replicates. The study allocated the sowing depth factor to the main panels and the variety factor to the secondary panels. The findings showed a notable improvement in yield characteristics and components when sowing depths were increased at both sites. It was observed that the total yield of dry seeds was significantly influenced by sowing depths at both sites, with D3 showing superior results, producing 2074.91 kg/ha and 7854.71 kg/ha, respectively. We observed that the Aquadulce variety had the highest yield rate, producing 5503.64 kg/ha and 7441.37 kg/ha, respectively. There was a significant impact of sowing depths and varieties on this trait at both sites. Specifically, at the Kirkuk site, the Aquadulce variety had the highest yield at depth D1, with 8413.83 kg/ha. At the Hawija site, the Aquadulce variety outperformed the other varieties at depth D3, yielding 9863.83 kg/ha. This superior performance was attributed to the quality of its components, resulting in a significant increase in the final yield.
