Pseudorigidity method (PRM) for solving the problem of limit equilibrium of rigid-plastic constructions

One of the basic types of strength calculations is the calculation of limit equilibrium of constructions. This report describes new method for solving the problem of limit equilibrium. The rigid-plastic system in this method is substituted with an «equivalent» elastic system with specially constructed rigidities. This is why it is called the method of pseudorigidities. An iteration algorithm was developed for finding pseudorigidities. This algorithm is realized in a special software procedure. Conjunction of this procedure with any elastic calculation program (base program) creates a program solving rigid-plastic problems. It is proved, that iterations will be converge to the solution for the problem of limit equilibrium. The solution of tests show, that pseudorigidity method is universal. It allows the following: - to solve problems of limit equilibrium for various models (arch, beam, frame, plate, beam-wall, shell, solid); - to take into account both linearized and square-law fluidity conditions; - to solve problems for various kinds of loads (concentrated, distributed, given by a generalized vector); - to take into account the existing various of fluidity criteria in different sections etc. The iterative PRM process quickly converges. The accuracy of PRM is very high even in case of rough finite-element structuring. The author has used this method for design protection systems from extreme loads due to equipment of nuclear power stations, pipelines, cargo in any transportation

STRATEGIC ISSUES OF INDONESIAN BORDER AREA DEVELOPMENT BASED ON THE MASTER PLAN 2015-2019

The purpose of this paper is to look at various issues in development of Indonesianborder area. This research uses qualitative research method with the main source is the National Border Management Agency Regulation No. 1 of 2015 on the Master Plan ofState Border Management 2015-2019. The land and sea border area has considerablenatural resource potential, and is a very strategic area for the defense and security ofthe country. However, development in some areas lags behind development inneighboring countries. The strategic issues that exist in the border area are in theaspects of defense, security, and law enforcement, infrastructure, arrangement,economics and social services. This paper can be used as a basis for further research tomake development policy of Indonesian border area

Is the Bankruption Threat Affecting the Company Stock Returns?

This study aims to examine the projection of the bankruptcy of textile and garment companies andinvestigate whether there is an effect of the potential bankruptcy of the company on stock returns. The sample inthis study were textile and garment companies that went public on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in theperiod 2010 to 2014, where 16 companies met the criteria. The data used is taken from the general descriptionof the company or company profile, the company's financial statements including the balance sheet and incomestatement. The dependent variable in this study is stock returns, while the independent variable is the AltmanScore. Data analysis methods are Altman Z-Score ratio analysis and regression analysis. From the calculationof the financial ratio of Altman Z-Score from 2010 to 2014, most textile and garment companies on the IDXhave the potential for bankruptcy. From the regression results, it was concluded that stock returns were notaffected by the potential value of bankruptcy. However, management needs to be careful in managing andrunning the company's operations by continuing to improve the company's performance so as not to disrupt thecontinuity of its business. Investors must always be careful when buying company shares by always looking atthe condition of the company's fundamentals

Peningkatan Pemahaman Mengenai Program Ketahanan Pangan di Kabupaten Malaka pada Perbatasan Negara antara Indonesia dan Timor Leste

Ketahanan pangan erat kaitannya dengan kesehatan, salah satu aspek kesejahteraan dan fokus utama pembangunan manusia. Upaya menghindari kerawanan pangan dialami di daerah dengan kondisi alam dan curah hujan yang relatif sedikit, seperti Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Timur, khususnya di Kabupaten Malaka, wilayah perbatasan Indonesia-Timor Leste. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memperdalam pemahaman bahwa Kabupaten Malaka memiliki ketahanan pangan dengan melihat Program Revolusi Pertanian (RPM) Malaka, yaitu kebijakan untuk meningkatkan produktivitas ekonomi masyarakat. Laporan kegiatan ditulis dengan metode deskriptif melalui pendekatan kualitatif sederhana. Sumber data berasal dari berbagai literatur dan diskusi dengan pemerintah (Bupati) dan masyarakat Kabupaten Malaka. Program RPM berdampak positif terhadap kinerja agronomi (padi, jagung, dan bawang merah) sehingga dapat meningkatkan produktivitas, produksi pertanian, pendapatan dan kesejahteraan masyarakat. Namun demikian, masih terdapat faktor-faktor yang menghambat pelaksanaan Program RPM, antara lain faktor internal (pengetahuan, keterampilan dan sikap petani dalam menghadapi perubahan yang ditimbulkan oleh program RPM) dan faktor eksternal (iklim, ketersediaan pupuk, teknologi, dll)

DEVICE FOR SEISMIC PROTECTION OF BUILDINGS

Seismic insulation is one of the most progressive types of seismic protection. Seismic insulation is understood as applying special devices for reducing of inertial seismic loads acting on a building. The constructions, shown in article, significantly more effectively solve problems of seismic protection, comparing to the existing seismic insulation systems (SIS). The Special Mechanical Engineering Design Office has developed, manufactured and tested a shock-absorber unit (SAU) of large load capacity. The SAU represents a block of number of pneumatic shock-absorbers (PSA), concentrically mounted round the guiding cylinder. The protected object rests upon the upper movable part of the guiding cylinder of the SAU. In its turn, the lower part of the SAU is rested on the foundation plate, mounted on the ground. A set of the SAU is a constructive realization of the SIS. Efficiency of such SIS has been proved as theoretically, so experimentally An effective SIS can also be created on the base of the elasto-plastic shock-absorbers developed by the KBSM. New designing and constructional solutions are based on the use of the original SIS elements, performed on the base of long time existing (in the other field of technical equipment)units, safety and durability of which have been proved by long term service (more than 20 years)
