Viking orbiter stereo imaging catalog
The extremely long missions of the two Viking Orbiter spacecraft produced a wealth of photos of surface features. Many of which can be used to form stereo images allowing the earth-bound student of Mars to examine the subject in 3-D. This catalog is a technical guide to the use of stereo coverage within the complex Viking imaging data set. Since that data set is still growing (January, 1980, about 3 1/2 years after the mission began), a second edition of this catalog is planned with completion expected about November, 1980

Analysis of complex singularities in high-Reynolds-number Navier-Stokes solutions
Numerical solutions of the laminar Prandtl boundary-layer and Navier-Stokes
equations are considered for the case of the two-dimensional uniform flow past
an impulsively-started circular cylinder. We show how Prandtl's solution
develops a finite time separation singularity. On the other hand Navier-Stokes
solution is characterized by the presence of two kinds of viscous-inviscid
interactions that can be detected by the analysis of the enstrophy and of the
pressure gradient on the wall. Moreover we apply the complex singularity
tracking method to Prandtl and Navier-Stokes solutions and analyze the previous
interactions from a different perspective
The Effectiveness of Transtheoretical Model to Reduce Compulsive Internet Use of Senior High School Students
Abstract: This research aims at examining the effectiveness of transtheoretical model to reduce compulsive internet use of Senior High School students. This research employed single subject design approach. The subject of this research is four students of X graders at St. Joseph Senior High School Malang which obtained high compulsive internet use score. This research utilized transtheoretical model counseling guidebook, compulsive internet use scale, observation and interview guidebook. The results of significant visual and score margin between pre-test and post-test indicate that transtheoretical model is effective to reduce compulsive internet use among Senior High School students.Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui keefektifan transtheoretical model untuk menurunkan compulsive internet use siswa Sekolah Menengah Atas (SMA).

THE CONSTRUCTION OF SEMAR COUNSELING THROUGH AN OBJECTIVE HERMENEUTICAL STUDY ON THE NOBLE VALUES OF SEMAR TEXT
This study is based on the importance of conception and cultural propositions as efficacy in the implementation of counseling practices as a key in problem-solving. Indonesia is a great nation having various religions, tribes, cultures and it is even listed as a country with the largest amount of local wisdom in the world. Therefore, it would be feasible if it has a goal to create a knot of Counseling filled by Indonesian culture with a grounded dialogue between soul sciences that live in Indonesian human cognition. One of the indigenous cultures of the Indonesian nation, especially in Java, which contains the noble values underlying the personality of the Java life, is puppet. The presence of Semar in puppet performance art is considered as a very popular figure by the Javanese community as the core figure of the inner world of Java society. Semar's noble set of values in handling the Pandavas' problems foster a philosophy that lends itself and presents views on Indonesian cultural counseling practices. The focus in this study is to investigate the construction of Semar counseling based on Semar's noble values. Article visualizations
The complex network of global cargo ship movements
Transportation networks play a crucial role in human mobility, the exchange
of goods, and the spread of invasive species. With 90% of world trade carried
by sea, the global network of merchant ships provides one of the most important
modes of transportation. Here we use information about the itineraries of
16,363 cargo ships during the year 2007 to construct a network of links between
ports. We show that the network has several features which set it apart from
other transportation networks. In particular, most ships can be classified in
three categories: bulk dry carriers, container ships and oil tankers. These
three categories do not only differ in the ships' physical characteristics, but
also in their mobility patterns and networks. Container ships follow regularly
repeating paths whereas bulk dry carriers and oil tankers move less predictably
between ports. The network of all ship movements possesses a heavy-tailed
distribution for the connectivity of ports and for the loads transported on the
links with systematic differences between ship types. The data analyzed in this
paper improve current assumptions based on gravity models of ship movements, an
important step towards understanding patterns of global trade and bioinvasion.Comment: 7 figures Accepted for publication by Journal of the Royal Society

Chaos induced coherence in two independent food chains
Coherence evolution of two food web models can be obtained under the stirring
effect of chaotic advection. Each food web model sustains a three--level
trophic system composed of interacting predators, consumers and vegetation.
These populations compete for a common limiting resource in open flows with
chaotic advection dynamics. Here we show that two species (the top--predators)
of different colonies chaotically advected by a jet--like flow can synchronize
their evolution even without migration interaction. The evolution is
charaterized as a phase synchronization. The phase differences (determined
through the Hilbert transform) of the variables representing those species show
a coherent evolution.Comment: 5 pages, 5 eps figures. Accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
The friction factor of two-dimensional rough-boundary turbulent soap film flows
We use momentum transfer arguments to predict the friction factor in
two-dimensional turbulent soap-film flows with rough boundaries (an analogue of
three-dimensional pipe flow) as a function of Reynolds number Re and roughness
, considering separately the inverse energy cascade and the forward
enstrophy cascade. At intermediate Re, we predict a Blasius-like friction
factor scaling of in flows dominated by the
enstrophy cascade, distinct from the energy cascade scaling of
. For large Re, in the enstrophy-dominated case.
We use conformal map techniques to perform direct numerical simulations that
are in satisfactory agreement with theory, and exhibit data collapse scaling of
roughness-induced criticality, previously shown to arise in the 3D pipe data of
Nikuradse.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
Zipf law in the popularity distribution of chess openings
We perform a quantitative analysis of extensive chess databases and show that
the frequencies of opening moves are distributed according to a power-law with
an exponent that increases linearly with the game depth, whereas the pooled
distribution of all opening weights follows Zipf's law with universal exponent.
We propose a simple stochastic process that is able to capture the observed
playing statistics and show that the Zipf law arises from the self-similar
nature of the game tree of chess. Thus, in the case of hierarchical
fragmentation the scaling is truly universal and independent of a particular
generating mechanism. Our findings are of relevance in general processes with
composite decisions.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
