Kesimpulan:Asuhan kebidanan berkelanjutan yang diberikan kepada Ny. K.D.N sebagian besar telah dilakukan dengan baik dan sistematis, serta ibu dan bayi sehat hingga masa nifas
Evaluating the merits of climate smart technologies under smallholder agriculture in Malawi
The merits of three climate smart agriculture (CSA) technologies implemented by
farmers were assessed in Machinga district of Malawi with respect to their soil
quality and maize yield effects. Data were collected from farms implementing the
three CSA technologies, namely conservation agriculture (CA), maize–pigeonpea
(Maize-PP)
intercrops and a local organic and inorganic soil amendment known
as Mbeya fertilization (Mbeya-fert),
from 2018 to 2019. With respect to resilience
and adaptation, particulate organic matter, soil organic carbon (SOC), N, P, K, Ca
and Mg all significantly improved while bulk densities were lowered under the
three CSA systems. Higher annual biomass inputs and improved water infiltration
from the Maize-PP
intercrops were observed. With respect to productivity, CA and
Mbeya-fert
improved maize yields by 51 and 19%, respectively, compared to conventional
farmer practices. With regard to climate change mitigation, increases in
measured SOC in the top 20 cm depth compared to the conventional farmer practices
amounted to 6.5, 12 and 10.5 t C ha−1 for CA, Mbeya-fert,
and Maize-PP
intercrops,
respectively, over a period of 2–6
years. This suggests higher potential for carbon
sequestration from CSA technologies. Furthermore, use of drought tolerant varieties,
timely weeding and optimum plant populations, increased productivity. Improved
gross margins from CSA practices were also apparent. Thus, employing these CSA
technologies could enable farmers to be more resilient, productive and adapt better to
climate change shocks leading to improved food security and livelihoods
Exploring the potential of standalone and tandem solar cells with Sb2S3 and Sb2Se3 absorbers: a simulation study
Abstract Thin-film antimony chalcogenide binary compounds are potential candidates for efficient and low-cost photovoltaic absorbers. This study investigates the performance of Sb2S3 and Sb2Se3 as photovoltaic absorbers, aiming to optimize their efficiency. The standalone Sb2S3 and Sb2Se3 sub-cells are analyzed using SCAPS-1D simulations, and then a tandem structure with Sb2S3 as the top-cell absorber and Sb2Se3 as the bottom-cell absorber is designed, using the filtered spectrum and the current matching technique. The optimal configuration for maximum efficiency is achieved by adjusting the thickness of the absorber layer. The results show that antimony chalcogenide binary compounds have great potential as photovoltaic absorbers, enabling the development of efficient and low-cost solar cells. A remarkable conversion efficiency of 22.2% is achieved for the optimized tandem cell structure, with absorber thicknesses of 420 nm and 1020 nm for the top and bottom sub-cells respectively. This study presents a promising approach towards high-performance tandem solar cells
Effect of plant density and cultivars on growth, yield and yield components of faba bean (Vicia faba L.)
One field experiment was conducted at the Experimental Farm, Faculty of Agriculture at Zabol University during the 2006/2007 season to study the effect of plant density (D) and cultivars (V) on some growth characters of faba bean. The experimental design applied was randomized completeblock (RCBD) in factorial arrangement with three replications. Plant density at three levels (12.5, 16.7 and 20 plant m-2) and cultivars at four levels (Aljazayeri, Barekat, Shami and var. 3514) were used asexperimental treatments. The obtained results showed that some characters were markedly affected by plant density, except plant height, height of the lowest pods of soil surface, 100 seeds weight, numberof pods per plant and number of seed per pod. Increasing plant density from 12.5 to 20 plant m-2 significantly increased economical yield and biological yield. As such, the cultivars had a significant effect on economical and biological yields. Aljazaeri cultivar surpassed all other cultivars in terms of biological and economical yields, whereas the interaction effect of ‘D x V’ was significant for both biological and economical yields. Increasing plant spacing increased the number of pods per plant, but a decrease in the number of seed/pods consequently gave the highest seed yield. However, cultivars had no significant effect on yield and other investigated characters. Thus, the use of Algazayeri cultivar at the highest plant density produced the best seed and biological yield in this condition.Keyword: Hundred (100) seeds weight, number of pods, growth characters, economical and biological yiel
A novel combined DTC method and SFOC system for three-phase induction machine drives with PWM switching method
In this paper, a novel combined Direct Torque Control (DTC) method and Stator-Flux Oriented Control (SFOC) system to increase general performances of Three-Phase Induction Motor (TPIM) drives is proposed. The introduced control scheme includes merits of DTC for instance simple structure, less dependent on PI controller coefficients, fast dynamics, and merits of SFOC such as high precision and constant switching frequency. Specifically, the proposed control scheme includes a table-based variable structure developed on DTC strategy and a PI controller in connection with a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) algorithm based on SFOC strategy. To confirm the usefulness of the introduced controller, simulation studies are accomplished for a 2.5kW TPIM in different situations. Results under the presented control system approve the good performances of this technique in comparison with classic DTC and classic SFOC. Investigation in TPIM performances under the introduced control system indicates relatively quick dynamic responses with low torque and stator flux ripples
High-aspect-ratio, 3-D micromachining of carbon-nanotube forests by micro-electro-discharge machining in air
This paper reports micro-electro-discharge machining of vertically aligned carbon nanotube forests for the formation of high-aspect-ratio, three-dimensional microstructures in the material. The developed forest machining method is a dry process performed in air, generating high-frequency pulses of electrical discharge to locally machine the nanotubes in order to create target shapes in a forest. With this approach, forest microstructures can be fabricated to have varying shapes along their height, unachievable with conventional pre-patterned chemical vapor deposition growth techniques. The use of the pulses with a minimized discharge energy defined with 35 V and 10 pF in the discharge generation circuit leads to an aspect ratio of 20 with the smallest feature of 5 µm in forests without disordering the vertical orientation of the nanotubes. Micromachining of multilayer geometries as well as arrayed needle-like microstructures with angled surfaces is demonstrated
