    This Greencycle project applies a system approach to shift design thinking and practices away from the ongoing unsustainable use of resources towards a more sustainable framework of consumption whereby local cultures, skills, resources and technology are analyzed to inform the design and development of a human powered transportation system. It uses a trans-disciplinary research and design approach by consulting all stakeholders; including farmers in a Third World country, industrial designers, engineers and manufacturers to provide information, understanding and insights as a basis to find solutions that have enabled this research study to produce a system called Greencycle which utilizes renewable materials and indigenous people skills to produce a bicycle that is more sustainable. The bicycle provides more than basic transportation to go from A to B. Poor countries need and depend on this mode of transportation for a wide range of uses; thus expanding its function and uses would be of great benefit to its users. This research study has created a series of accessories to extend a bicycle’s functionality, with the core being made from sustainable materials and local skills. For this project it would have been a simple process for the designer to come up with a concept idea(s) that was based on a personal view of what would be a suitable solution for the target user. Instead however, the designer has used feedback from the target group participants to shape and develop the design process and to ensure the design will be acceptable for the target user to use and manufacture. This research study has included four expert interviews, eleven case studies of target users, prototype testing and field experiments with sustainable resources to gather information, understanding and insights from these stakeholders in order to propose, design and evaluate two Greencycles (using sustainable bamboo material) and a series of design accessories. This multi-discipline approach to the design problem has revealed many opportunities that would otherwise be hidden by less detailed research and design methodology. Many academic studies stop at the point when the written thesis is complete. This research project went a step further by testing and implementing its findings on users back in its intended marketplace to ensure the design will be adopted by and be successful for people in Third World countries. As a result of this research, there is now an opportunity to look at and create a business model that provides new income opportunities for the local people. Feedback for the Greencycle design and its accessories has so far been very encouraging, with participants showing a significant level of enthusiasm. To take advantage of this success, a business proposition to market these sustainable products seems plausible as a first step to developing this business venture. Information posters to showcase the accessories and their functions and applications have been designed to test market demands and other important indicators for future business development and strategy

    Eksistensi Allah dapat dikenali dan diselami dengan berbagai cara. Teologi divinitas meramu metodologi yang dapat menolong manusia untuk mengetahui eksistensi Allah yang ilahi. Gagasan Karl Rahner sehubungan dengan teologi divinitas memberikan alternatif kontribusi bagi percakapan mengenai Allah. Artikel ini berpendapat bahwa gagasan Rahner mengenai pengalaman manusia, Kristologis-Pneumatologis dan teori teologi simbol merupakan cara yang ditawarkan yang bisa menjadi opsi bagi para pencari Allah. Dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif analisis kritis, penelitian ini mengumpulkan data dari buku dan artikel jurnal yang menjadi tulang punggung utama membangun ide-idea teologis.

    Dalam era perdagangan bebas setiap badan usaha menghadapi persaingan yang ketat. Peningkatan jumlah pesaing yang bergerak di bidang yang sama menuntut badan usaha untuk selalu memperhatikan kebutuhan dan keinginan pelanggan dan selalu berusaha memenuhi harapan pelanggan melalui pelayanan yang memuaskan. Hanya badan usaha yang mampu menghasilkan produk yang berkualitas yang mampu bertahan dan memiliki keunggulan untuk bersaing. Kualitas jasa merupakan gambaran atas seberapa jauh perbedaan antara kenyataan pelayanan (perceived service) dengan harapan pelanggan atas pelayanan yang seharusnya mereka terima (expected service). Ketidaksesuaian perceived service atas expected service akan menimbulkan kesenjangan (gap) yang merupakan persepsi pelanggan terhadap kualitas jasa. Persepsi pelanggan ini selanjutnya akan mempengaruhi kepuasan pelanggan. Melalui konsep service gap, pihak manajemen dapat memperoleh gambaran mengenai kesenjangan (gap) yang dihadapi oleh badan usaha. Dari sisi provider, terdapat empat gap yang harus diperhatikan dalam penyampaian layanan yakni Customer’s Expectation - Management-Perceptions Gap, Management’s Perceptions–Service - Quality Specifications Gap, Service-Quality Specifications - Service-Delivery Gap dan Service- Delivery - External Communications Gap. Dengan melakukan analisis service gap, badan usaha memperoleh informasi yang dapat digunakan dalam pengambilan keputusan terkait upaya-upaya guna memperbaiki kualitas layanan dan meningkatkan kepuasan pelanggan. Para pelanggan yang puas akan memberikan loyalitas yang tinggi kepada badan usaha. Dengan mempertahankan kepuasan pelanggan badan usaha dapat mencapai kesuksesan badan usah

    PEMBENTUKAN LEMBAGA HAKIM KOMISARIS DALAM UPAYA MEREFORMASI HUKUM ACARA PIDANA INDONESIA MENURUT UNDANG UNDANG NO 8 TAHUN 1981

    Get PDF
    Latar belakang pemikiran adanya hakim komisaris sebagai Lembaga Hakim Pemeriksaan Pendahuluan adalah pengaruh perkembangan zaman, serta diratifikasinya ICCPR (International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights) oleh Indonesia, maka perlindungan terhadap hak asasi warga negara (dalam hal ini tersangka/terdakwa) menjadi prioritas utama negara dalam upaya menegakan hukumnya melalui aparat penegak hukum. Mengingat fungsi fundamental dari Hukum Acara Pidana itu sendiri yaitu mencari kebenaran materiil, maka dirasa Hakim Pemeriksaan Pendahuluan sebagai suatu lembaga baru yang dimunculkan dalam RUU KUHAP merupakan suatu terobosan baru untuk menjaga Due Process of Law agar tetap mampu berjalan sesuai dengan harapan. Hal ini juga diharapkan nantinya tidak terjadi orang yang tidak bersalah tapi dijatuhi pidana dengan tidak mengesampingkan kepentingan korban.Kata Kunci : Hakim Komisaris, Hukum Pidana dan Undang undang

    Objective: The aim of this study was to prove that organic solvents areas effective and efficient as sandblasting and burning for cleaning rebonded brackets.Methods: Thirty stainless steel metal brackets mounted on 30 maxillary first premolar teeth were categorized into three cleaning method groups, each consisting of 10 brackets. After 24 h, shear bond strength (SBS) tests were performed using a universal testing machine.Results: The one-way ANOVA test showed a significant difference (p=0.000) among the mean SBS values in the three cleaning method groups. However, the modified adhesive remnant index by a Kruskal–Wallis analysis showed no significant difference (p=0.860). The scanning electron microscopy results revealed that the organic solvent cleaning method showed better bracket performance than the other two methods. Moreover, the energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy results showed that the adhesive material remaining on the bracket base was relatively similar among the three cleaning methods.Conclusion: Based on practicality and the results of this study, the organic solvent cleaning method was proven to be effective and efficient. Therefore, organic solvents can be recommended as an alternative cleaning method for detached brackets
