Analysis of the corrosion rate of SS 316l metal in a tsunami detection tool in seawater media by Gusti Ayu Arwati I, Alfattah Muhammad, Maryani Yeyen, Suprihatiningsih Wiwit, Yuliarty Popy

“…It was found that the lowest corrosion rate data occurred on specimens of 0 hours of immersion with an average value of 4.5681 x 10-3 mmpy while the highest corrosion rate occurred in specimens that were immersed for 96 hours, showing an average value of 8.6811x10-3 mmpy, this shows the value of the corrosion rate that occurs increases with the length of immersion time. This research contributes to achieving SDGs 9, 11, 13, and 14.…”

Transformation of the System of Training Specialists during the Transition to FSES 3++ by R. N. Bakhtizin, O. A. Baulin, R. M. Mazitov, N. A. Shaikhutdinova

“…The implementation of such a model within the transition to FSES 3 ++ is proposed to be done by individualizing mass education, building flexible educational trajectories that most meet the needs of the parties involved. At the same time, the so-called soft skills should become an indispensable superstructure for the formation of professional competencies, as without them it is extremely difficult to train specialists able to adapt as quickly as possible to changes in the external environment, and, in conditions of uncertainty of occupational functions in the future, they become more important than hard skills.…”
