    Three deep sea spider crabs (#Brachyura : #Majidae) from the South West Pacific are examined : #Vitjazmaia latidactyla Zarenkov, 1994 from the Western Indian Ocean, is recorded from New Zealand, Eastern Australia and the Northern Tasman Sea; #Oxypleurodon wanganella sp. nov. is described from North West of Northern New Zealand; and #Cyrtomaia cornuta$ Richer de Forges and Guinot, 1988 from New Caledonian waters, is now recorded from New Zealand.

    The compn. of sterol mixt. from the living fossil crinoid G. richeri collected off Noumea (New Caledonia) was investigated. The free 3β-OH sterol mixt. was found to contain 14 components, Δ5 and ring satd. stanols, identified by GC-MS. Cholest-4-en-3-one, cholesta-1,4-dien-3-one, 5α-8α-epidioxy sterols, and 5α-ergosta-7,22-diene-3β,5,6β-triol were also present, their characterization being accomplished by EI-MS and 1H-NMR. The methanol ext. also contained sterol sulfates, which were identified by GC-MS after solvolysis to remove the sulfate group

    PELACAKAN KELUARAN SISTEM LINEAR POMPA PISTON TUNGGAL DENGAN KONTROL KOMPOSISI RESERVOIR POMPA

    Pompa piston tunggal adalah pompa yang terdiri dari sebuah piston yang digunakan untuk memompa air, sehingga terjadi perbedaan tekanan dalam sistem pompa tersebut dan dapat dikonverter menjadi energi. Pompa piston tunggal ini difokuskan sebagai pembangkit listrik energi ombak. Penelitian ini berjudul pelacakan keluaran sistem linear pompa piston tunggal dengan kontrol reservoir pompa. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk merekonstruksi model sistem persamaan dari pompa piston tunggal dan membangun persamaan kontrol pompa piston tunggal terhadap reservoir-nya. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode numerik Runge-Kutta dan tracking kontrol sistem persamaan linear. Berdasarkan tujuan yang ingin dicapai sebelumnya, penelitian ini berfokus pada perancangan kontrol terhadap reservoir atas dari pompa piston tunggal, sehingga diharapkan bahwa dengan kondisi tertentu yang optimal dari reservoir atas dapat menghasilkan perbedaan tekanan yang lebih optimal pula pada sistem, yang diharapkan juga berpengaruh dengan banyak energi yang dihasilkan dari sistem. Hasil yang didapat dari pengontrolan sistem ini adalah nilai dari variabel kontrol (A_u), yaitu 52 m^2. Nilai tersebut merupakan nilai rata-rata A_u dengan interval nilai 47 m^2 sampai 75 m^2. Didapat pula energi hidrolik yang dihasilkan sistem ini selama 100 detik adalah 5.500.175 J

    “I’m only a dog!” : the Rwandan genocide, dehumanisation and the graphic novel

    Get PDF
    Graphic novels written in response to the 1994 Rwandan genocide do not confine their depictions of traumatic violence to humans, but extend their coverage to show how the genocide impacted on animals and the environment. Through analysis of the presentation of people and their relationships with other species across a range of graphic narratives, this article shows how animal imagery was used to justify inhumane actions during the genocide, and argues that representations of animals remain central to the recuperation processes in a post-genocide context too. Whilst novels and films that respond to the genocide have been the focus of scholarly work (Dauge-Roth, 2010), the graphic novel has yet to receive substantial critical attention. This article therefore unlocks the archive of French-, Dutch- and English-language graphic narratives written in response to the genocide by providing the first in-depth, comparative analysis of their animal representations. It draws on recent methodological approaches derived from philosophy (Derrida, [2008] trans. 2009), postcolonial ecocriticism (Huggan and Tiffin, 2010) and postcolonial trauma theory (Craps, 2012) in order show how human-centred strategies for recovery, and associated symbolic orders that forcefully position the animal outside of human law, continue to engender unequal and potentially violent relationships between humans, and humans and other species. In this way, graphic narratives that gesture towards more equitable relationships between humans, animals and the environment can be seen to support the processes of recovery and reconciliation in post-genocide Rwanda
