Konstruksi Citra Partai Islam pada Pemilu 2014 Pendekatan Fikih-siyasah

The research of the Image Construction of Islamic Political Party at 2014 Election in Indonesia aimedat knowing the image construction of Islamic political party, especially at Republika and Sindo newspaper.The thoeries used in this research are fikih siyasat (the characteristic of muslim leader), socialconstruction of mass media and hierarchy of influence by using discourse analysis as an analyticaltechnique. The method of the research is qualitative. And the Informans as research subject are thejurnalist, redaction and management representative of both newspaper.The founds of research showedthat the news characteristic of both newspaper were almost same. From the social cognition there werea difference. Republika strived to counter every news related to the image of Islamic political party andSindo did not. From the social context, the background of this news was 2014 Election. And fromhierarchy of influence perspective, the impact of media organization level was strong as shown in thepower of the owner like Hary Tanoe in Sindo as a chairman of MNC Group. So, Sindo never producednews that contradicted to Hary or Hanura Party. The impact of ideological level also strong as we can seein the news of Republika which not only related to the profit, but also the benefit of Islamic Party

Freight trip generation by firms

Traffic congestion problems are a constant cause of concern in today's centres of economic activity. While measures that deal with these problems, generally focus on the use of private cars, increasing freight traffic as a cause of road congestion should not be ignored. Forecasts of freight traffic at a local and regional scale are necessary to predict traffic flows on specific routes, and might be helpful in planning adequate infrastructure for future industrial estates. Such forecasts, however, require knowledge of the generation of freight trips by firms, a field in which little research has been done so far. This paper describes an attempt to uncover the relationship between firm characteristics and freight traffic. The main purpose of the research described in the paper, is to build a freight trip generation model which takes differences between sectors of industry into account. Inquiries were held in the Netherlands, collecting data from various types of industry. In this paper, the data of these inquiries are analysed in order to identify the characteristics of firms that are primarily responsible for the number of freight trips that are generated by those firms. Trip generation factors are derived by calculating trip intensity (regressing the daily number of freight trips against magnitude of firms) per sector. These factors appear to vary substantially between sectors. Although sector specific trip generation factors can vary between countries as well, the collected foreign material indicates that the ranking of sectors in terms of their trip intensity may be quite stable. The study shows that trip intensity can vary over sectors by an order of magnitude, thus making this material of interest for city and infrastructure planning purposes. Specific attention will be given to the problems encountered in this type of research, which is based on firm-level survey data from a heterogeneous population. This concerns the determination of sample, survey method (both telephone and mail was done in this work), the optimisation of response rates and survey design

Fracture Propagation Driven by Fluid Outflow from a Low-permeability Aquifer

Deep saline aquifers are promising geological reservoirs for CO2 sequestration if they do not leak. The absence of leakage is provided by the caprock integrity. However, CO2 injection operations may change the geomechanical stresses and cause fracturing of the caprock. We present a model for the propagation of a fracture in the caprock driven by the outflow of fluid from a low-permeability aquifer. We show that to describe the fracture propagation, it is necessary to solve the pressure diffusion problem in the aquifer. We solve the problem numerically for the two-dimensional domain and show that, after a relatively short time, the solution is close to that of one-dimensional problem, which can be solved analytically. We use the relations derived in the hydraulic fracture literature to relate the the width of the fracture to its length and the flux into it, which allows us to obtain an analytical expression for the fracture length as a function of time. Using these results we predict the propagation of a hypothetical fracture at the In Salah CO2 injection site to be as fast as a typical hydraulic fracture. We also show that the hydrostatic and geostatic effects cause the increase of the driving force for the fracture propagation and, therefore, our solution serves as an estimate from below. Numerical estimates show that if a fracture appears, it is likely that it will become a pathway for CO2 leakage.Comment: 21 page

A Contribution to the Preparation of Synthetic Rubber from Butadiene. II.

Since the World War, the production of synthetic rubber has become the problem not only of the laboratory, but of commerce as well. Several factors demanded this research. In the first place, the World War made the dependence of countries on each other strikingly evident in several ways, one of which was the need for rubber by great nations whose situations prohibited the planting of the rubber tree and consequently put them under obligation to other countries for their supply. And now in the last few years this demand for rubber has been increased enormously, through the increased production of the automobile. The demand for synthetic rubber has not come, as one might suppose, from the increasing output of tires but from the new engineering achievement, known to the trade as floating power . This accomplishment could only be attained with the help of a special synthetic rubber, which, while it possessed elasticity and resiliency, must necessarily be of such a composition as to resist the corrosive effects of petroleum in its different forms

Sintering oxide ceramics based on AI[2]O[3] and ZrO[2], activated by MgO, TiO[2] and SiO[2] additives

The positive effect of the addition of MgO and TiO[2] in an amount of no more than 1 wt. % on sintering and physico-mechanical properties of alumina ceramics is established. Addition of 5% of SiO[2] to A1[2]O[3] provides the mechanism of liquid phase sintering of ceramics, which leads to increase in its density and strength up to 480 MPa. In ceramic system A1[2]O[3] - ZrO[2] - Y[2]O[3] highest level of physical and mechanical properties of the composition had a hypereutectic composition 16.6% A1[2]O[3] - 76% Z1O[2] - 7.4% Y[2]O[3]. In this composition two mechanisms of hardening are realized simultaneously, such as transformational hardening by t-m -ZrO[2] transition and dispersion strengthening with high-modulus particles of [alpha]- A1[2]O[3]

Assessing the spatiotemporal interactions of mesopredators in Sumatra’s tropical rainforest

Co-occurrence between mesopredators can be achieved by differentiation of prey, temporal activity, and spatial habitat use. The study of mesopredator interactions is a growing area of research in tropical forests and shedding new light on inter-guild competition between threatened vertebrate species that were previously little understood. Here, we investigate sympatry between the Sunda clouded leopard (Neofelis diardi) and Asiatic golden cat (Pardofelis temminckii) living in the Sumatran rainforests of Indonesia. We investigate: i) spatial overlap of predator-prey species using a combination of single-species occupancy modelling and Bayesian two-species modelling, while controlling for the possible influence of several confounding landscape variables; and, ii) temporal overlap between mesopredators and their shared prey through calculating their kernel density estimate associations. From four study areas, representing lowland, hill, sub-montane and montane forest, 28,404 camera trap nights were sampled. Clouded leopard and golden cat were respectively detected in 24.3% and 22.6% of the 292 sampling sites (camera stations) and co-occurred in 29.6% of the sites where they were detected. Golden cat occupancy was highest in the study area where clouded leopard occupancy was lowest and conversely lowest in the study area where clouded leopard occupancy was highest. However, our fine-scale (camera trap site) analyses found no evidence of avoidance between these two felid species. While both mesopredators exhibited highest spatial overlap with the larger-bodied prey species, temporal niche separation was also found. Clouded leopard was more nocturnal and, consequently, had higher temporal overlap with the more nocturnal prey species, such as porcupine and mouse deer, whereas the more diurnal golden cat had higher overlap with the strictly diurnal great argus pheasant. The Bayesian two species occupancy modelling approach applied in our study fills several important knowledge gaps of Sumatra’s lesser known mesopredators and provides a replicable methodology for studying interspecific competition for other small-medium sized carnivore species in the tropics
