Modification of Rice Husk-based Activated Charcoal as Microwave Absorbing Material

Stealth technology is one of the technologies being developed to eliminate RADAR traces from the enemy. The spectrum used in this technology is in the microwave range (8-12 GHz). RAM (Radar Absorbing Material) is one of the techniques that can be used in the design of stealth technology. One material that has the potential to be used as RAM is activated charcoal as a dielectric material. In the manufacture of activated charcoal, a chemical activation method is used with an activator in the form of 5 M HCl to obtain good porosity properties in charcoal. Modification of active charcoal was also carried out using mechanical milling method with time variations of 50, 100, 150, and 200 minutes which were then characterized using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy - Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and Vector Network Analyzer (VNA). Mechanical milling is proven to be able to change the shape of the charcoal structure from amorphous to semicrystalline with the crystalline phase formed in the form of C60-fullerene. Activated charcoal samples with a time variation of 100 minutes have the best absorbing ability with absorption reaching 78.22% and a reflection loss value of -25.96 dB at a frequency of 9.69 GHz with a frequency bandwidth of 3.68 GHz.Keywords—stealth technology; rice husk activated charcoal; mechanical milling; microwave absorber.

The Effect of Emotional Focused Coping and Religiousness on Psychological Well-Being in Family Caregivers of People with Dementia

Dementia is defined as a disorder that is usually experienced by elderly people. This disorder attacks brain function which causes a decrease in cognitive function that can affect a person's productivity. The changes experienced in people with dementia eventually lead to their activities and require the help of others or family as a companion. The stress felt by family caregivers can have an impact on the psychological well- being of family caregivers. Coping strategies are one of several factors that influence the psychological well-being of individuals. Religiosity is also an important factor that influences the condition of individual psychological well-being. The subjects of this study were family caregivers of people with dementia aged 20 years and over. The sampling technique used is snow ball sampling. With 100 research subjects. The research data collection used 3 scales, namely the Psychological Well- Being scale, the Emotional Focused Coping Scale and the Religiosity Scale. The results showed that there was a positive relationship between emotional focused coping and religiosity on psychological well-being in family caregivers of people with dementia, a significant value of .000 (p <.05), or the value of F count = 37.224 greater than F Table (3.090) with an effective contribution of 42.3%. From these results it can be concluded that Emotionally focused coping is more effective.influences psychological well-being compared to religiosity. With an effective contribution of 30.7%

Nonparametric Kernel Regression Analysis on the Relationship between Marine Capture Fisheries Production and the Price Index Received by Fishermen in the Arafura Sea

The Arafura Sea is known as an area rich in fisheries resources, which is the main source of income for many local Fishermen. The main problem arises due to price and production fluctuations which can significantly affect Fishermen's income. Kernel nonparametric regression analysis was chosen as a research method to overcome the limitations of parametric regression models in capturing complex and nonlinear patterns in these relationships. This research aims to fill this knowledge gap by using a nonparametric kernel regression analysis approach. Thus, it is hoped that this research can provide new insights into the relationship patterns between marine capture fisheries production and price indices, opening the door to increasing the sustainability of the fisheries sector and the welfare of Fishermen in this region. This research is quantitative and uses nonparametric kernel regression data analysis to explore the relationship between marine capture fisheries production and the price index received by Fishermen in the Arafura Sea. Based on nonparametric kernel regression analysis with bandwidth selection methods, such as Cross-Validation, Generalized Cross-Validation, and Mean Squared Error, this research shows variations in estimates of marine capture fisheries production and the price index received by Fishermen in the Arafura Sea. Differences in estimation results between methods reflect different approaches in dealing with the trade-off between model fit to the data and model complexity. Although the results suggest flexible relationships, it is important to remember that conclusions about causal relationships cannot be drawn directly, and this study provides valuable insight into the complex dynamics of factors influencing fisheries production in the region

Analysis Of The Accountability Of School Operational Support Funds (BOS) At Secondary Schools (SMA/SMK) In West Sumatra

This study aims to identify and analyze the accountability of BOS funds management in the aspects of planning, implementing, monitoring, and evaluating BOS funds at SMA/SMK school level in West Sumatra after the transfer of authority from the district / city government to the provincial government. Thus it is expected that potential problems can be clearly seen and then solutions can be given.The population in this study is a state SMA/SMK school that is under the authority of the government of West Sumatra. West Sumatra has 537 secondary education units consisting of 325 high schools and 212 vocational schools spread across 19 districts / cities. In this initial research, the researchers selected several public high schools / vocational schools in Padang and Bukittinggi as samples. Padang and Bukittinggi were chosen because they are big and advanced cities in terms of education. The selection criteria for SMA / SMK in this study are based on the categories of good, medium and bad schools in each region. Schools are meant for Padang: SMA 1, SMA 9, SMA 16 and SMK 9. For Bukittinggi: SMA 1, SMA 5, SMA 4 and SMK 1.From the results of this study it can be concluded that the transfer of authority accompanied by changes in grant expenditure into direct expenditure of BOS funds has changed the form of BOS funding accountability in public SMA/SMKin West Sumatra. The school did not object because this change encouraged better management of BOS funds in the future

Rôle Des Guides De Tourisme Dans La Conservation De La Reserve De Biosphère De La Pendjari

: La réussite du tourisme dans un espace nécessite la disponibilité des professionnels du monde touristique en général et des guides du tourisme en particulier : ils sont les maîtres du tourisme. Le guide du tourisme représente la boussole du touriste dans sa visite dès son arrivée dans le milieu d’accueil jusqu’à la fin de son séjour (départ). Des  données  relatives  aux  types  de  guide  de  tourisme,  leurs  formations  de  base, leurs fonctionnements en milieu réel de situation et la perception des populations sur le métier du guidage ont été collectés auprès de la population-cible, de la mairie, de l’office du tourisme au sein de la réserve  de  Biosphère  de  la  Pendjari. Ces données ont permis d’avoir un point de vue global sur le métier de guide du tourisme, son fonctionnement et la perception des touristes. Le  modèle  d’analyse SWOT a  permis  d’identifier  les  forces  et  faibles  liées  au  métier  de  guide  du  tourisme,  les opportunités et menaces qui favorisent l’existence du métier de guide du tourisme. L’analyse des résultats obtenus a permis de dénombrer trois catégories de guide du tourisme dans la  Réserve  de  Biosphère  de  la  Pendjari: le guide  accompagnateur,  le  guide  local  et  le  guide  conférencier ou animateur. La saisonnalité de l’activité touristique dans la réserve conduit la majorité des guides à mettre en place des activités secondaires afin de s’assurer un niveau de vie décent. Pour d’autres, ces activités constituent une porte de sortie pour quitter le métier de guide. 48% des guides pensent mettre en place des projets pouvant contribuer au développement du tourisme dans la réserve de biosphère de la Pendjar

Exploitation Du Bois Energie Et Du Charbon De Bois Dans La Commune De Zogbodomey Au Centre Du Benin

La présente réflexion a pour but d’analyser les impacts de l’exploitation du bois énergie et du charbon de bois dans la commune de Zogbodomey au regard du triste constat de la régression drastique du couvert végétal en dépit de l’existence des 2700 hectares de plantation de l’Office National du Bois (ONAB). La démarche méthodologique a constitué à l’utilisation la cartographie des zones d’exploitation, les enquêtes socio-économiques, le traitement des données et l’analyse des résultats. Les investigations ont couvert les onze (11) arrondissements de la commune et les quotas par arrondissement ont été définis par le procédé mathématique suivant: T = E.ω avec un taux de sondage fixé à 1/20. Les résultats ont permis de constater qu’en dehors des plantations de l’ONAB, les populations non riveraines produisent elles aussi du bois-énergie. 5385 espèces végétales sont abattues et 4784 sacs de charbon sont produits par an. Ces prélèvements importants causent d’énormes dégâts à l’environnement (disparition de certaines espèces, destruction des habitats de la faune sauvage, exposition du sol aux effets pervers de l’érosion, etc..). Les revenus issus de la vente du charbon sont estimés à 10.994.000 FCFA par an. Quant au bois de feu, il génère dans le seul secteur d’Agrimey sur 5ans un revenu de 43.829.958 FCFA, soit un revenu moyen annuel de 8 829 766 FCFA. Il ressort des constats qu’en dehors des plantations de la Coopérative de Gestion Participative de la Forêt (COGEPAF) qui assure la gestion des rémanents pour le bois de feu aux populations riveraines dans les périmètres plantés de l’ONAB, l’approvisionnement et la production du combustible ligneux se font de façon libre et ne respectent aucune norme environnementale
