The construction and infrastructure sectors are shifting toward lighter, low-emission, and sustainable materials in response to the high carbon footprint and excessive weight of common materials such as concrete and steel. One promising alternative widely developed is natural fiber–based composites. However, studies comparing mechanical properties of variations of natural fibers within a single framework remain limited. This study aims to evaluate and compare composite mechanical properties reinforced by sisal fiber, bamboo fiber, and pineapple leaf fiber to determine the optimal fiber type for sustainable infrastructure applications. The research methodology involved fabrication of composite specimens using a unidirectional fiber configuration with a resin matrix, molded following ASTM D638 Type I dimensional and geometrical requirements. Tensile testing was conducted to evaluate mechanical responses, including ultimate tensile behavior, deformation characteristics, and elastic properties, which were presented in tabular and graphical forms. The results show that incorporation of all natural fiber types significantly enhanced composite mechanical properties, exhibiting an average tensile strength of approximately 26 MPa. Pineapple leaf fiber demonstrated balanced mechanical behavior combining strength and ductility, while sisal fiber showed superior tensile resistance and rigidity. Bamboo fiber provided moderate mechanical improvement. Overall, natural fiber–reinforced composites demonstrate strong potential as environmentally friendly alternative materials for infrastructure applications, with mechanical characteristics adjustable based on reinforcing fiber type.

This study examines the integration of maqasid al-shariah and digital governance in halal value chains using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) guided by the PRISMA 2020 framework. Articles indexed in Scopus from 2020–2025 were analyzed to identify theoretical patterns and research gaps. The findings indicate that existing studies remain fragmented, with maqasid primarily treated as a normative concept and digital governance addressed mainly from technological or compliance perspectives. This research proposes an integrative conceptual model linking maqasid al-shariah, digital governance, stakeholder engagement, institutional legitimacy, strategic resources, and sustainability outcomes. The synthesis demonstrates that maqasid can function as a strategic governance framework, while digital governance operationalizes Islamic values through transparent and measurable practices. The study contributes theoretically by repositioning maqasid as a strategic management lens and practically by offering guidance for value-based digital transformation in the halal ecosystem. Overall, maqasid-based digital governance emerges as a new paradigm for building ethical, resilient, and sustainable halal value chains.

This study aims to identify and analyze the contribution of the Mosque Welfare Board in improving the religious attitudes of the community around Ar-Ridha Mosque, Titipapan. This research employed a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including interviews with informants and documentation studies. The results indicate that many mosques are still only used as places for ritual worship and have not been optimized as facilities for empowering the Islamic capacity of the surrounding community. In fact, mosques should not only function as places for congregational prayers but also serve as centers for social, economic, and educational development. At Ar-Ridha Mosque, the utilization of facilities and infrastructure as well as activity management has not been optimal, which affects the comfort and participation of the congregation. Therefore, greater seriousness and responsibility from the mosque administrators are needed to ensure that the mosque functions effectively as a center for fostering the community’s religious development.

Football in Indonesia is not merely a sport but a social phenomenon that triggers massive public emotional engagement. Every result of the Indonesian National Team, particularly in prestigious events such as the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers, often generates waves of opinion in digital spaces filled with criticism, support, and disappointment. The failure of the Indonesian National Team in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers has become an important momentum to systematically understand public perception. The purpose of this study is to identify the distribution of public sentiment and to reveal the main issues most frequently discussed through keyword visualization, thereby providing an overview of societal reactions. This research utilizes 971 comments from the TikTok platform as the primary dataset, collected through a crawling process and processed using text mining stages before being classified with a sentiment analysis method. The findings indicate a sentiment distribution dominated by Neutral at 63.67%, Negative at 32.36%, and Positive at 3.97%. The word cloud visualization highlights dominant keywords such as “Pecat” (Dismiss), “Evaluasi” (Evaluation), and “PSSI” (Indonesian Football Association), reflecting public criticism of managerial aspects, although positive words such as “Semangat” (Spirit) and “Dukung” (Support) also appear, emphasizing supporter loyalty. These results contribute to an empirical understanding of the issues most highlighted by the public and the distribution of collective emotions, which can serve as a basis for PSSI and stakeholders in formulating communication strategies, policy evaluations, and improvements to the national football management system.

This article analyzes the application of the hierarchy of norms in the decisions of the Constitutional Court concerning Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health using the perspective of Hans Kelsen’s Stufenbau theory. The enactment of the Health Law has generated significant legal debate and several constitutional review petitions submitted to the Constitutional Court, raising questions about the consistency between statutory norms and constitutional principles. This study aims to examine how the Constitutional Court applies the principle of hierarchical norms in reviewing the constitutionality of the Health Law and to assess the relevance of Stufenbau theory in explaining the interpretation of legal norms in constitutional adjudication. This research employs a normative juridical method using statute, conceptual, and case approaches. Primary legal materials consist of the 1945 Constitution, Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health, and relevant Constitutional Court decisions, supported by secondary legal materials from academic literature and legal studies. The findings show that the Constitutional Court consistently positions the 1945 Constitution as the highest norm within the Indonesian legal system and uses the hierarchy of norms as the basis for evaluating the validity of statutory provisions. The Court maintains the legal force of the Health Law when no normative conflict with the Constitution is identified, while in certain cases it provides constitutional interpretation to ensure the compatibility of statutory norms with constitutional principles. This study demonstrates that Stufenbau theory remains relevant as an analytical framework for understanding the hierarchical structure of legal norms and the operation of constitutional review within the Indonesian legal system.

Working memory (WM) has been extensively studied as a cognitive factor influencing second language acquisition (SLA), but many studies treat it as a static, trait-like capacity. This approach provides limited insight into how WM works across different stages of development, proficiency levels, and learning contexts. This article combines theoretical and empirical research on working memory in SLA from a dynamic and developmental perspective, analyzing how the influence of WM varies over time and interacts with other cognitive and contextual factors. Referencing Baddeley's multicomponent model, complex dynamic systems theory, and longitudinal research, this article examines evidence regarding the role of WM in various language domains, including vocabulary learning, grammar processing, and language production. It also investigates how WM works differently at various proficiency levels and developmental periods, from childhood to adulthood. Evidence suggests that WM plays a very strong role in the early stages of learning when processing is effortful and controlled, but becomes less central as linguistic knowledge becomes automated. The relationship between WM and SLA appears to be bidirectional, with sustained language learning contributing to the development of specific WM components, particularly executive control. The influence of WM varies significantly based on task characteristics, teaching context, and learner profiles. Understanding WM as a dynamic resource rather than a fixed constraint has important pedagogical implications. Instructions that manage cognitive load, provide support, and encourage metacognitive awareness can help learners with diverse cognitive profiles. A developmental approach in WM research requires longitudinal designs and task-aligned methodologies to capture changes over time, thereby advancing theory and practice in SLA.

Penelitian ini mengkaji transformasi jaringan perkotaan Kotabaru Yogyakarta melalui pendekatan tipomorfologis, dengan fokus pada ketahanan dan kemampuan beradaptasi elemen ruang di tengah perubahan perkotaan yang cepat. Awalnya dirancang berdasarkan konsep Garden City, Kotabaru telah mengalami transformasi signifikan, termasuk konversi zona perumahan menjadi penggunaan komersial, pengurangan ruang terbuka hijau, dan meningkatnya ketidakkonsistenan arsitektural. Menggunakan analisis spasial diachronis dari tahun 1925 hingga 2025, penelitian ini mengidentifikasi pergeseran morfologis kunci dan mengkategorikan elemen perkotaan menjadi tipe persisten, pendorong, dan patologis. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa meskipun beberapa struktur permanen, seperti jaringan jalan radial dan bangunan kolonial, tetap ada, mereka tidak cukup untuk mempertahankan idealisme Garden City di hadapan komersialisasi, tekanan populasi, dan tuntutan infrastruktur. Degradasi ruang hijau—dari 45,3% pada tahun 1925 menjadi 24,61% pada tahun 2025—lebih lanjut menyoroti hilangnya keseimbangan ekologi dan spasial. Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa ketahanan jaringan perkotaan memerlukan lebih dari sekadar keabadian fisik; ia membutuhkan penegakan kebijakan yang konsisten, perlindungan ekologi, dan intervensi desain yang sensitif terhadap konteks. Temuan ini berkontribusi pada strategi revitalisasi berkelanjutan distrik perkotaan warisan di bawah tekanan modernisasi.

Heavy equipment effectively plays a key role in ensuring productivity and efficiency in the precast concrete industry of spun pile concrete at PT Adhi Beton Purwakarta.

The foundation of turbine machines in industrial buildings must be able to withstand static and dynamic loads caused by operational vibrations. Generally, reinforced concrete block foundations are used due to their good stability. However, under certain conditions such as limited land, decreased soil bearing capacity, and the need for structural rehabilitation, their application becomes less effective. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the use of Micropile foundations as an alternative for turbine machine foundations at Candi Baru Sugar Factory, Sidoarjo.The research method includes literature studies, soil data collection through Cone Penetration Test (CPT), machine technical data analysis, and the design and analysis of Micropile foundations. The analysis covers bearing capacity, settlement, dynamic response, pile cap design, and cost estimation.The results indicate that Micropiles with a diameter of 0.20 m, a length of 2 m, five piles, and a pile cap size of 2 m × 2 m × 4.5 m are able to safely and stably support the machine load. In addition, this system is considered more efficient in terms of construction time and implementation. Therefore, Micropile foundations are recommended as an effective and economical alternative for turbine machine foundations.

This literature review explores how entrepreneurs act as pragmatic experimenters when navigating uncertainty, focusing on three interrelated cognitive processes: causal inference, feedback interpretation, and heuristic adaptation. Drawing on recent empirical and theoretical studies, the review synthesizes how entrepreneurs learn through iterative experimentation, adjust mental models based on ambiguous feedback, and develop heuristics to guide decision-making in unpredictable environments. The findings suggest that entrepreneurial success is often linked to adaptive learning strategies rather than predictive accuracy. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of bounded rationality and cognitive flexibility in entrepreneurial contexts, offering insights for future inquiry into how entrepreneurs balance action and learning under uncertainty.

This study aims to analyze the feasibility and sensitivity of shallot farming as seed production using a low cost greenhouse system in Hasara Dodo Farmer Group, Nias Regency. The research employed a quantitative approach with a case study method. The data used include production costs, yield, selling price, and greenhouse investment components, which were analyzed using cost, revenue, income, and R/C ratio calculations, as well as sensitivity analysis. The results show that the total production cost is Rp205,200,000 per hectare per planting season, with total revenue of Rp510,000,000 and income of Rp304,800,000. The R/C ratio value of 2.48 indicates that the farming is financially feasible. Sensitivity analysis results show that the farming remains feasible even under a 10% decrease in selling price, increase in production cost, and decrease in production, with the R/C ratio still greater than one. The use of a low cost greenhouse system is proven to improve production stability, especially in areas with high rainfall. In addition, shallot production as seed provides higher economic value compared to consumption purposes. Therefore, greenhouse-based shallot farming has strong potential to be developed as a strategy to increase farmers' income.
